    well that's very limp coming from a John Thomas.

    I am not a liar and you have been about as convincing as an under-Water firework display in trying to prove you did not spend months reading through my posts - all for no reason as it turned out.

    There will never be Anything deceitful about thinking joe Frazier hit harder than Cleveland Williams.

    Does anyone have footage of Orlin's fight with Bert Cooper? I have heard conflicting reports of how that fight actually played out... Orlin has always been one of my favorite fighters.. he had a high ring IQ... looked very relaxed and wish he had just been a cruiserweight his whole career.. but the money was to be had at heavyweight...

    I love rocky, i dont think he was invincible but if he lived in this era he'd still be a serious contender

    Marciano was way smaller and more narrow than tua.rocky had smaller thorax and more narrow shoulders. Forget it

    Both Tyson and Tua were much thicker and more muscular than Rocky. Especially Tua his legs were like tree trunks.

    50 pages of this garbage, and it still won't die, even when it's on some kind of terrible life support.

    I'd lock this thread if I were a mod.

    Seriously it is laughable certain people insinuating that rocky weighed 185 pounds just because he trained like a spartan if not he would be the same size of Tyson and tua.. Tua and tyson fought in the 201 limit in the amateurs when were kids at 17-19 years old while marciano weighed 186 pounds when he was a fully developed man even at 30.
    Yes rocky trained like a spartan but he was not as big as tua or tyson.. He was a smaller man, deal with it and stop talking crap

    You are not kidding my friend. These BS threads need to go. Not only are they repetitive, but when I posted a Bob Foster vs Dwight Qawi at cruiserweight, I think I got 2 replies. But put Rocky Marciano vs Lennox Lewis or the Klitschko brothers and you get more posters than flies on ****, pardon my French lol

    There used to be a distinct difference in quality of the posters in the classic forum, compared to general. Rapidly becoming a different scene all together here at times, seemingly.

    Hard to get love for much content non heavyweight isn't it. You almost have to have a divisive fighter or put the term power in the header LOL

    We need a two-month moratorium on threads about heavyweights and/or punching power comparisons.
