    Blatant millennial shut down tactics. It is a valid point Williams got knocked out at top level isn’t it?

    Moore had about 130 fights at heavyweight and scored around 40 stoppages, 2 against wrestlers and at least 25 against nobodies.

    Williams was only ko'd twice whilst he was prime, both times by Sonny Liston an all time top heavyweight puncher.
    My point not only stands, it jumps up and down and waves at you!

    Then Both points equally stand up. We are both correctly using truth. yet Only one of us is saying there is dishonesty in saying the truth. Most unusual.

    so Was I using dishonesty when I said a fighter under 200lb lasted the distance with Foreman? Yes or no?

    The example is valid since Peralta And Chuvalo were about the only competitive opponents Foreman was matched with up to the Frazier fight. Going into the Frazier fight, Aside from the two Peralta fights there was not much else to study of Foreman aside from a highlight reel of knockouts. So where is the dishonesty here? Most unusual tactics.

    Peralta had over a hundred fights and was stopped 3 times,once as a light heavy by Mauro Mina,another as a light heavy by Pastrano on a cut eye, and only once as a heavyweight by Foreman.
    You're like a third rate comic whose act everybody had heard a dozen times.
    Time to get yourself some new material? Or retire!

    So your answer to a yes or no question is Peralta had 100 fights?

    This in no way refuted the valid point that a sub200 pounder Survived with Foreman!

    Yes, Peralta was tough. Nothing untrue about what you are saying. Just as there is nothing untrue about what I am saying.

    Peralta was so tough he only got stopped a couple of times. Marciano so tough he retired before he got stopped.

    It gets pointed out plain and clear why the bout means literally nothing yet under full scrutiny he doubles down on the position. Would anything less be expected tho?

    He's infuriating the way he tries to wriggle and spin every post.Then portrays himself as," Mr Straightfoward," its akin to Jarrell Miller insisting he was clean!

    I personally thought all members had interesting points.
