Is Sugar Ray Leonard overrated?

"Hard rock was a skilled fighter but lacked heart. As soon as Fletcher cut him he quit."

He researched commentary on the internet!

God, this is brutally easy! It's like spanking kids

Now pull down your panties little boy

 

Unlike you I watched Green get dismantled live and in person.

Please let everyone know of all the Historians that agree with you that Norris and Camacho should be rated over Leonard. If only you believe this very absurd idea then it's not much to stand on. At least try to fight back loserboy.

 

sure you did, in your dreams

I think it's beautiful the way I took your greatest weapon from you and rendered you helpless. I totally disarmed you, making your strongest argument-the boxing historians, and turned you into a blabbering idiot

kind of like this fellow-->:smh except that all your flapping is done with your lips

Savor my genius the way others do. Appreciate greatness for what it is

Maybe one day you'll even smile again

If you can't do it now, it's only because you are feeling great distress in front of your fellow forumers

but it gets easier, trust me (I've done it lots of times)

Fellow forumers tell me that they have fond memories and some even share them with their grand children

 

So you cannot mention a single expert who agrees with you? Kind of pathetic don't you think?

The bout was 25 years ago. There are many boxing experts today who were not around to pick the winner of this fight. So tell everyone what expert also rates Norris and Camacho over SRL all time p4p. Waiting to see something over "loser" status from you.

 

so you can't tell me why your experts lack credibility since none of them called the fight correctly (Norris UD 12 SRL)

If I am to take your request seriously, then all of these experts you refer to should have called it in advance!

meaning, none of them were ever experts at all

and so you waste your efforts repeating a question that shouldnt be asked

catch my drift?

why do you refer to them as experts when they clearly arent?

this reminds me of that commentator who made that remark directed at Micheal Phelps during the 2000 Jr. Olympics, 15 at the time

"I don't think this boy has a future in this sport"

Go on, get out of here

 

quite the contrary. In fact, this is just a ruse on your part to excuse the flaw in your argument which you clearly did not see coming (the result of stale repetitive thinking)

when you say experts, those include the better known journalists that cover the sport, not little babies like yourself

Now let's get back to the question: which one of your experts correctly chose Norris as the victor due to a "badly declined SRL"

Good luck!

I am thinking of knocking up a thread for you on the weekend, to take advantage of your obviously incredible knowledge of the 80's. It will be your top 10 fighters of the 80's.

Keen?

 

Once again the bout was over 25 years ago. Many today were too young to predict the winner. Please tell everyone all the historians who rate Norris and Camacho over Leonard.

Bottom line is you can't. No historian, no knowledgable boxing fan rates Either over SRL. Keep making things up as you go along.

 

sounds great! I'm sure someone like Perry will learn substantially more from it than he would from his incredibly fallible experts he has relied so heavily on

 

once again, sound like like a load of **** since those same experts were the ones that were around during his time

I mean, SERIOUSLY! If you're less than 25 how can one be an expert/historian???

you sir, are at a dead end, victim to RR, prey to a power that knows no equal

 

Who is more stupid.....Red or his drunken father?

I will take your last response as a white flag. You win the prize as least knowledgable ESB poster.

 

the white flag was thrown by the person that said "that fight was 25 years ago. There are no historians left!"

who ever heard of boxing historians under 25?

what a pathetic *******

Thanks for the laughs *******!

 

Have a scotch with your mum and dad. Show them your prize as the least knowledgable poster on ESB. Be PROUD!

 

Well, we all recognize who got the better of it on this debate!

anyone out there know of any boxing historians under 25?

Poor guy will never live it down

Yes, Leonard was favored going in.

However, if you read accounts of the fight, the general consensus was that he looked jaded.

Credit was given to Norris for a great performance, but nobody was saying he beat a prime Leonard.

Norris was a very good champion and a credit to the sport.

However, nobody rates him higher than Leonard prime for prime.

You get stuck on particulars, but in the big picture, this is just the way it is.

If you can't deal with it, fine, but don't expect anybody to agree with you.
