    You wont go looking for quotes because you don't have them ,you were just airily generalising, pulling words out of the air and we both know it.
    I couldn't care less who you pick.

    I'm a huge fan of Sam Langford , but not of no -nothing newbies who take their ball and go home in a childish sulk when they are exposed as numpties and things aren't going their way.

    I confused it with Langford v Lang and I made a public thread admitting my mistake and drawing attention to it.

    You,on the other hand ,have been caught out making up fairy tales and don't have the nuts to admit it. = W*NKER:good

    You're an idiot throwing out insults like a child when it's clear that word describes you better

    Even Joe Louis' manager admitted that Sam would beat joe

    Grow up son the only fairy tale was the one you spun about watching langford vs Hague and you have the gall to talk about credibility

    i know i'm a bit dyslexic, but isn't rothschild usually spelled mendoza?

    louis 7.9/10. hw langford was in questionable shape (at best), small and beaten by worse jabs than louis'. the 2 langford ko's would be the fights to watch out of the ten tho.

    Wrong yet again!

    Blackburn said Johnson would beat Louis not Langford!
    And he should know because he fought Langford and sparred with Johnson.
    All these mythical quotes you don't have proof of, ludicrous!
    Come back when you have something to say ,preferably something you can back up with primary sourced proof!


    ps What name were you last banned under?:lol:

    This one is had to call because the films we have of Sam are old and incomplete, the ones we have of Louis are very good. The press, which was not usually kind to black man at the time, all raved about Sam. All of his opponents and all those who saw him, including Jack Dempsey, said Sam was about as good as a fighter could be. The real tie braker in my mind is the quality of opponents. In my opinion, Sam fought far better men. He fought the black guys that no sane man would enter the ring against. Although, I have no proof of this, and may be totally wrong, if such an imaginery fight could ever have been set up, Blackburn would have bet on Sam. So would I.
