    I can't remember now it was the username of my AOL account, same as my e-mail address I didn't post much but enjoyed reading the opinions it was a friendly place a lot better than this place seems to be.

    i find it surprising even so called staff members leave snobby wisecrack comments i thought this was a place where you could discuss all things obxing and if the thread doesnt interest you you can just move on to the next one some people are too big in the mouth cheers

    ChunderButtocks ?? You remember him, can’t think of anyone else. Yeah, you’ll get use to this place. Half the mods are sound, the other half left wing snowflake Biden supporters

    If Joshua doesn’t duck Savarese (big if) then Lou out boxes him at range. While Joshua may be physically taller, Lou is much taller mentally, psychologically, and spiritually.

    If this is a joke its a every bad joke. Savarese's greatest accomplishments were getting beat by an ancient George Foreman, and koed by a Mike Tyson on cocaine. AJ does him under six.

    Mate, is there a responsible adult looking after you ? Savarese's best win is against Buster Mathis Jr. Joshua would roll right over him.

    Is there a reason why on this forum people can't just answer the question or just move to another thread if it doesn't interest them what's with all of the remarks. Many people with small man syndrome on the forum unfortunately who wouldn't say any of these things in reality. It's a shame being friendly costs nothing. I just feel sorry for people who carry frustration around obviously and have negative vibes


    I can't remember anyone by name on there just from trying to remember. I remember the whole aol setup where I would login and it would have the browser, AIM, e-mail all on one interface kind of thing and I would go on and have a look at the boxing through that it was an awesome friendly place a lot of good discussions that I would read through late at night after work. Great memories man good to see someone else who remembers it. I have found a lot of friendly people here but some people who are just jackasses but that's the internet in 2021 I guess!

    Let's not get started with this crap. I can name a handful of great fighters that had bums on their record.

    I loved Sweet Lou, but he was a bit limited and too slow. AJ KO's him.

    Savarese was decent. I thought he beat Foreman and was surprised when the decision went to Foreman. He was doing well against Izon until he got caught and KOd decisively.

    I think Joshua eventually catches him and KOs him. Savarese would come prepared and give it his all but he was really a fringe contender / gatekeeper during the late 90s. He was moved way too slowly for too long on the come up and I think that protection ultimately hurt him (or protected him? Possibly).

    Lou was tough as nails but I doubt he had the skillset to beat Joshua. He may have been a bit too slow on the draw.
