    No one here ever called kalule an ATG and your damn right about it being one of the greatest streaks of all time. Pitty Norris couldn't turn the trick on that one, though I suppose Pat Lawlor, Luis Santana and Paul Vaden were some spectaculer ground breaking Wins.

    Magoo is a creative writer who without fail, manages to take Terry Norris, 120-106 conqueror of Ray Leonard, and turns him into the loser every time

    At times, you might also see these words "Terry Norris couldnt carry Leonard's jock strap"

    I really wish I could hear it.. Unfortunately your snickering isn't enough to drown out the ensemble of laughter that's been aimed at you all afternoon.

    If i could go back in time and be one of the judges, I would give Leonard a gift decision just to see you have a stroke.

    So after all that hot air was Simon Brown EVER a lightweight?

    Answer NO

    Did Norris beat Brown in a rematch, just like Leonard beat the Lightweight Duran in a rematch?

    Answer YES

    Was the 5' 10" with a 71" reach Brown a naturally smaller guy than the 5' 10" 69" reach Norris? Because we are ALL aware that Duran was much smaller than Leonard.

    Perhaps that has something to do with Roberto being a NATURAL LIGHTWEIGHT.:roll:


    See above, and go argue with every ratings committee, magazine, sports journal ( whatever you like ) that has ONLY ever rated Duran as an ATG LIGHTWEIGHT or on a p4p basis'

    Jesus, you are truly are bad at this aren't you?



    I asked you before if you were naturally stupid, or have you had to work at it? When Duran last fought at Lightweight, is irrelevant. What matters is when he first fought above the weight, which was 2 years and 2 months prior to fighting Leonard. Is it still too difficult for your limited intelligence.

    Glad to see you have got the 4 times beaten in a career of 38 fights Palamino as an ATG. Nelson Ruiz must be feeling very pleased with himself, not to mention Zovek Barajas, and Ted Ligget who drew with this giant of the game.:patsch




    Which yet again has less than FUK ALL to do with you crowing about the fact Duran beat Palamino who only faced 1 fighter with a 100% record in his entire career. Still never mind, you have elevated him to ATG status, so even more kudos to Roberto, eh? :nut

    Though since you bring up the allegedly wonderful victory over Kalule, this little anecdote tickles me.

    Despite an official stoppage time of 2.59, the fight was actually stopped at 3.06 into the round, meaning Kalule should have been saved by the bell.
    .




    I don't care, it only worthy to Muricans and they simply don't matter.



    Yes you do need fanboys to claim such garbage. Anyone with a brain would say it was more meaningful to beat a guy who was the same size and weight as you, who had KO'd you, than it was to beat a guy much smaller than you naturally who had beaten you on points. But I concede your are the expert on fanboyism here, so who knows?



    Try telling us something we don't know.



    Again I am not interested in your fanboyism which cause you to deny the facts.

    Leonard had surgery to repair his detached retina on May 9th 82.

    In November 82 Leonard said his eye was perfect but he wanted to retire.

    In December 82 Tommy became Light Middle champ by beating Benitez.

    Missing the limelight and the competition, Leonard announced in December 1983 that he was returning to the ring. Leonard boasted that he would have a couple of ten-round bouts and then take on Milton McCrory, Donald Curry, Durán, Hearns and finally Hagler.

    Meanwhile Hearns had beaten Sutherland and was preparing for Minchillo.

    A bout with Philadelphia's Kevin Howard, who was 20–4–1, was scheduled for February 25, 1984. The fight was postponed when Leonard had minor surgery on his right eye to fix a loose retina. It took place on the 11th of May meaning it had only been put back a few days more than 2 and a half months.

    Here is another humourous anecdote concerning the Howard fight.

    Needless to say Leonard retired yet again.

    Meanwhile Hearns destroyed Duran and Hutchings in June and September of that year. Other than Leonard fanboys some folks might call that " retirement " convenient.

    Certainly not for the same reasons you keep coming back with your lies and spin, combined with your childish fanboyism.

    I merely state that Leonard's 154 resume doesn't hold a candle to Norris's resume at THE SAME WEIGHT. Whether or not you agree, or like that fact I couldn't give a flying fuk.



    Not content with giving Norris defeats against fighters he didn't even fight, you have now resorted to crediting Leonard with wins against guys he didn't even fight. You really are a basket case.:nut









    Like I told you, post the weights of Lalonde's previous 10 fights to the fight with Leonard. Your opinion on the matter is of no use to me. Other than beating the Middleweight Hamsho Lalonde had faced, what were your words, " obscurities, and nonentities " or some similar sh!t in the previous 4 years, and he even contrived to lose to one of those in Willie Edwards.




    There is no maybe about it.

    Ironically enough Curry was on Leonards list of opponents when he said he was coming out of retirement in December 83, along with Curry victim Milton McCrory.

    Oh wait a minute wasn't Curry reckoned to be what you Muricans love up until the Honeyghan destruction? you know p4p numero uno.

    Ridiculing you is honestly easier than shooting fish in a barrel. I feel like a bully here.:lol:





    Yeah yeah, more p!ss and wind. Go back to the other idiot Leonard fanboys, and lick your wounds like a good beaten dog.:hi:

    Trust me the standing joke around here is you. Fantasy match ups is one thing, but you have taken it to a new level with crediting fighters with certified wins, and defeats against guys they didn't actually fight.

    :lol::lol::rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl:nut:nut

    for what that's worth - nothing

    Fan boys would much rather have the win showing on the record. why hide it?

    about the only thing I will concede is that Ray fought in a more glamorous era, back when everyone was slow

    It was Terry however, who showed how easy it is to beat Sugar

    120-106

    Just like that!

    with his speed, he could do anything
