    Liston had a shouler injury confirmed by a number of Doctors. So unless he intentionally rubbed blinding ointment in then Clay's face (a possibility), I would not say he did not fight like a man.

    If you go in that direction, Tyson talked about taking your beating like a man.
    But against Holyfield, treating him like "The Real Meal" with two bites when he was losing does not qualify.

    I was joking. The reference was to the frequent controversies between @moneytheman12 and other posters about whether his posts are easily readable. As someone who has chimed in on the issue briefly (partially in defense of his posts, which are not incoherent when punctuation is inserted), I figured I'd throw a bit of humor in.

    I'm not trying to insulting you, which is why I went through the trouble of tagging you.

    I was just making a joke about the ongoing arguments that you have with others about your posts. Kind of like how people used to make jokes about Mendoza and McVey arguing about Johnson.

    So I apologize for offending you. It was insensitive of me.
