    Because he is, we should use actual records not hype from fighters.

    He lost in close dec and Valuev was nobody, no skills not punch but size and good chin.
    Holyfield and Bowe from their fights would kill Valuev.

    Yeah but Ruiz knocked him down, and we all know that Tua almost killed Ruiz.

    If Ruiz could drop him, his chin wasn't that good as in his early days until the mid 90s.

    Rahman?
    He was like Buster Douglas, one hit wonder, knocked Lewis and that's about it.

    He also lost against Maskaev,Ruiz, Tua...every time he fought someone good.

    You’re a great poster Greg but it’s been long known that your Achilles heel has been you being such an unashamed Liston fan boy. It’s a damn shame, really.

    Not quite as elegantly put but I would say it’s the Good Poster (Bolo) meets the Immovable Idiot (no ID required).

    Gene “Lights Out” Toney was one hell of a fighter.

    Quite the literary man too.

    Loved his book A Man must EAT.

    He really fell off the wagon after he split a series with Harry Greg, though I don't think Toney was prime by then, his belly button was beginning to close from punches sustained over his career.

    I think he put it best when he said, "Drink two quarts of milk a day and think of nothing but Burger King."

    Bunch of stupid guys laughing here because I mistaken last names, big deal, because they can not bring any valid argument instead they make fun of you...laughable and sad, it is more fun to laugh at you because ya all have nothing else to bring than me mistaking Toney last name.

    Again Williams overrated and so is Liston, you can all die now while trying to argue me or insulting me with my grammar or calling me out for mistaking names.

    Probably my favorite part of the rant. Very abrupt and very hilarious.

    I was never the one arguing with you, I've been doing nothing but heckling you exclusively for like the last five pages. Lol
