    He was undefeated as a pro and beat Lewis and Bowe in the ams. Next question.

    Jorge Luis Gonzalez was undefeated as a pro at a time and beat Lewis and Bowe in the ams too. Do you consider him to be one of Bowe's best wins?
    We're talking about the pros, and I'm talking about more than simply being undefeated, tell me what makes this win so good for Oleg as a pro. The amateurs don't mean much when you don't have any sort of a decent feats past there.

    He does think that because he doesn’t know anything about Peralta & is committed enough to comment but too lazy to learn.

    There’s ample evidence that Gonzalez sucked as a pro and never even trained. You lack that evidence for Chenko.

    And I remember him asking me if I knew who Johnny DuPlooy was all condescending-like. "It's not too late to learn." But for him it always will be.

    You lack any evidence that he didn't suck at a pro and trained at all, I know that most fighters wouldn't have to train for his level of opposition.
    Gonzalez was a bum by all accounts, but guess what? He still had a better looking record than Chenko did when he lost to Maskaev, he still didn't lose to someone in his 22nd pro fight, and when he fought Bowe he didn't lose until the sixth! Bowe was far superior to any of these other men in every way, but he took double the time that Maskaev did to knock out what you probably think as terrible opposition, whereas Chenko was some "monster" that Oleg knocked out in his very first match.
    You have not provided any piece of evidence that matters when talking about the pro game, and every time that you get that pointed out to you, you dodge it. You haven't refuted any one of my claims with anything meaningful.

    Miroschnichenko stopped Purrity and Purrity destroyed Gonzalez. Nice try though.

    3 - 1, no amateur career Ross Purity.
    He retired in the 6th, but Cleveland Woods knocked him out in 1in a previous match, does that mean that Woods is better than Wladimir Klitschko? No, because these are different fighters.
    Puritty developed and got better, but apparently Chenko didn't if that was his best win in the pros.

    Q1.WTF did he beat as a pro?

    Henry Tillman beat Tyson twice in the Ams.
    You are out of your depth so often in these debates,its a miracle you haven't drowned by now!

    I think you’re a little out of your depth. Miroshnichenko was a better am than Gonzalez and Tillman and Tillman wasn’t a super heavyweight.

    1 or 2 replies is enough for me then I'm off the scene he likes baiting replies so I'll indulge him a few times then that's enough for me.

    I don't know why people fall into the trap it's obvious hes baiting and partially trolling I wouldn't waste my time.

    It's a pity because NoNeck is actually knowledgable on the sport it's a pity that's wasted on baiting and trolling when he could be having much better conversations.
