Greats Who Never Had A "Signature Win. "

is that all you can come back with

 

Your incorrect, i am not a "Lewis hater" as you claim, i am a "Lewis factualist" someone who tells it like it actually was on ALL fighters, not just Lewis.

It was well documented about Mike Tyson's drug addictions. Tyson was imprisoned for possession of Class A drugs, aswell as Tyson himself claiming he was addicted to Alcohol, cocaine & cannabis. Emmanuel Stewart is heard saying at the end of the first round of Lewis vs Tyson, "You won't believe how bad he looks" to Lewis as he returns to his corner... You are obviously a Lewis fanboy

 

Do you think Sanchez had one?

 

lacy has got to be the weakest claim to a sig win on this forum ever. A guy who got stopped by 40something is not a sig win.

Its an insignificant win.

 

its argualbyhis best win, but a win over a puffing billy wjho cant manage 6 rounds is hardly a good win.

 

or signature win/loss as the debate still rages.

 

I was interested because I find you to be knowledgeable on Chapo.Gomez was coming up in weight.

 

yeh u have acase, particularly since the kessler win was against a crocked kessler and joe ran from the rematch. I dont think joe would have been at all fearful of facing prime lacy, 2nd time, once he knew how shyte he really was.

and aside from kessler (crocked) and old hopkins, lacey was by far the best smw joe faced, though he was one of the worst smw titleholders ever was jeff.

 

Wilfredo Gomez. I would say, had 2 signature wins...first was vs Zarate...his "coming out" win...that was the fight that convinced me that Gomez was truly special...a thrilling performance for me. The second sig win was of course vs Pintor...which proved beyond a doubt that Gomez could take it, take a beating, suck it up and persevere like a champ.

 

Bernard Hopkins. I do not rate tito at 160 pounds.

 

DLH does not have a signature win in my opinion. His wins over Chavez and Whitaker were highly regarded in the 90s. But as time goes on people criticize the condition and capabilities those guys had at the point of their careers.

Fernando Vargas was essentially his defining victory in the ring. Of course his defining fights were Tito and Mosley. But they were disputed decisions.
