    Would he have to be ? Does everyone who disagrees with verdict of a fight you watch have to be a liar? I know its a word you freely use about posters from the safety of your computer.
    Klompton also thinks Layne deserved the win over Charles,I've never read a report that agrees with him,that doesn't mean he is lying ,he is entitled to his opinion,as were the reporters who sat ringside and watched the fight live.
    I know when I went to the fights monthly I would record them and watch them later at home,and I often got a different slant on things.

    You are very free with insults but not so quick to address all the facts that totally contradict your ignorant views.
    All who disagree with you, and that just about 100% of us, are according to you, ignorant of the period of boxing history they are talking about.Its so absurd because you think guys like
    Chase
    Bolden
    Booker
    Lytell
    Cocoa Kid
    Basora
    Williams
    Overlin
    Soose
    Belloise
    Wade
    Apostoli
    Are journeymen, and elevate alphabet champs like Abraham to all time level whilst preposterously including Papp in the top 5 all time great middles!
    Everyone here is laughing at you but you either cant see it or are so thick skinned it goes over your head!

    Don't be going to McVey asking the same question that I asked you. Repeating my earlier question, there are 3 wire services that felt Folley deserved the verdict, can you produce a report to the contrary? And don't proceed with that nonsense again that it was actually the same person because I've read them and and they all differed except for the verdict.

    Wire Services are never pinpoint or foolproof, but as a rule local scribes turn in their stories. If it is verbatim, then it was the same scribe. Nothing suggests the same scribe on any article on this fight. The writer for the Stars and Stripes was named. A lengthy article by their sports editor Jack Ellis. An American man who lived, worked and raised his family in Germany for over 30 years. So let's cut out the nonsense that he was partial in any way to the American. I will not be looking for a German newspaper like you suggest because I have already found 3 separate articles on the fight and will not proceed further on something that seems rather clear. However,I think you should look for the German article and knock yourself out doing so. No, really, do us all a favor and knock yourself out.

    I trust my baby blues over any report or he said, she said. So produce the fight and I will score it. And please, don't talk about logic with me. You pose a scenario comparing Elvis Presley, who was drafted and served for 2 years to a person who willingly lived, worked and raised a family in Germany?? I was trying to show there was no partiality and you come up with this blithering assessment? I feel I have sullied myself even talking to a wind-up artist like yourself. Perhaps we should start a new thread that the rest of us will enjoy. "The most stupid opinions of Ra's Al-Ghul" It should be memorable and long.

    I think you're right -which I'm sure is not something you hear very often - but a good crash course in 'Blithering Idiocy 101' should bring me down to a level where we can converse on an even keel.

    He is always right and anyone who disagrees is always wrong.
