    This has nothing to do with hero worship. You made an objectively goofy, misinformed post that could've been avoided if you simply bothered to watch any footage of Whyte or the Ali vs Mathis fight.

    You really aren't in any position to talk about anyone's reading comprehension. That's hilariously ironic. It's also funny you complain about posters being rude, but you're incredibly rude denigrating and insulting older fighters all the time. I highly doubt you'd keep that same energy in person.

    The reason I don't put you on ignore is because you're good comic relief.

    Honestly Pat ill never get it, I’ve been purposefully antagonising in the past I won’t deny it to get a rise out of people… but you get the same energy even when you’re being genuine? Lots of emotionally charged angry people who aren’t even in or ever will be in the boxing business lol - there definitely is an “orthodox” view for something like fantasy sports yet hobbyists and internet quarterbacks (like me) will let you know coach or not you’re definitely wrong… credentials here are lacking but they’ll have at it when it comes to making definitive statements. Someone funny said this place was like a high-school reunion where people can just fantasise about the “glory days” together, I find it funny that even guys who weren’t there will get high on all the poetic prose and join in, it’s infectious! I had my shot though. If you only want to read what knowledgeable posters say you should probably have me on ignore I don’t read Ring Magazine or Bert Sugar articles…

    Who says Pat M is a coach? Pat M does.

    Newsflash sometime people online aren’t what they say they are.

    Of course having no knowledge of Whyte is irrelevant on a thread about Whyte. Put the pipe down.

    You thought he is an athletic guy with decent feet!!

    Don't know what fighter you were watching when you thought that but it wasn't Whyte!

    Well Ali nearly lost to that Doug Jones fella so Whyte could easily knock him down twice and get a unanimous decision...

    Have I done something to you exactly? I can tell you this, this isn’t how you’d speak to anyone daily, the internet really has made people rude. It’s irrelevant because of the poor manners not because of what @Pat M did or did not know about Whyte, I specified this in my first post.

    I believe the man, whatever he is he knows actual boxing a lot better than the “hardcores” here.

    Stop acting like a snowflake, the guy clearly had very little knowledge of Whyte judging by his perception of him being athletic and thinking he has decent feet. That's just nonsense
