    He’s clearly gonna die on a hill for his take. Facts are Amir Khan would sleep him in a street fight with just a few combos but talks big in a boxing forum.

    You took a punch before? How do you know if you don’t have a glass jaw? I reckon Khan would sleep you with a few fluid combos.

    Nice pic. I just presumed like me and most on this forum you never had a boxing fight before. Were you a good amateur boxer?

    Deontay Wilder hits so hard he would destroy an incoming asteroid with one punch, along with 40 odd glass chins attached to pastry chefs, Uber drivers, teaching assistants and overblown former SMW's.

    Tyson Fury is the greatest Heavyweight since Godzilla.

    Joe Louis was an ATG - eh, he fought a bunch of bums and patsies that made him look much better than he really was. And almost all of the skilled guys he beat would be LHWs today.

    Larry Holmes had the greatest jab in HW history - nah, he had a great looking jab, but he frequently fell short of employing it the way he should have.

    Prime Foreman would have beaten Tyson - nope, he would have been KOed. Brutally.

    Wlad had one of the hardest right crosses in history - nah, he had one of the crispest and most well-timed, but plenty of fighters put more oomph into the punch.

    Haye was one of the greatest cruisers in history - hell no, he barely makes top ten.

    Fighters know who hit them the hardest and who are we to argue? - hmm, why should they, when they're the ones being KOed?

    Vitali was H2H one of the greatest heavies ever - never proved that satisfactorily to me.

    In the HW division all it takes is one punch - that's the same in any division.

    Please explain to me how a 40 year old Void deals with Horns illegal tactics, the ref and judges? That's because he doesn't - He would never take a fight like that. Pac only "lost" a highly dubious decision to Horn because all of the above. Your hero would be a total fish out of water if he were being fouled incessantly like that without his usual bought and payed for ref there to save him.

    First pac wasn't 40 lets get that straight. Pbf is a more complete fighter than pac is he can fight on the inside better and can deal with rough tactics better. Horn is not good hes not skilled and has no defense. Crawford showed you how to deal with trash like horn you take it out. The fight never should have been close in the first place, stop with the excuses. Lastly pbf rematched maidana and won going away. Pac didnt rematch horn and that will forever hang over his legacy.

    How old was Void in 2017? 40 right? Void the latter half of his career was a running point fighter. He would not deal with illegal rough house tactics well... Especially not when the ref was looking the other way. What the hell are you smoking? Yeah. Arum wanted to put an easy belt on Crawford. No excuses just simple observations and facts. Two things that you seem to have a major issue with. :lol:
