    On what basis?? You don't have enough "likes' or mammoth posts to support a bold claim like that.

    Not gonna criticize or question the grounds for the ban, but... The sad part was seeing that a couple of regular Classic forum posters “liked” some of that dross.

    Anyway, what’s done is done. Usyk beats Lastarza handily, any way he chooses.

    I am probably safe...only been banned once for saying the banning process was unfair. My exact quote was:
    Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.
    But fortunately I was quickly reinstated.

    but I will have to be careful, I knew I was not allowed to discuss the 3rd leg of my tripod, but not about Richard Tiger...that one may prove difficult

    Better and more fair question might be: Who's the best cruiserweight anyone would expect LaStarza to beat?

    There are a lot he would beat. The best? Not sure. My opinion changes drastically in regards to Lastarza after getting to watch the Layne v Lastarza fight. Saw a fighter there that would have probably beaten a lot of fighters. I don’t think he really gets blown out by any.

    He was also a natural 5ft5 LHW, I was just trying to paint that Laz is terrible.

    He could probably replicate what Rahman did to Lewis. Lewis was vulnerable like that. And Rahman is no Laz.

    We need a LaStarza v. Piet Crous thread.
