    Just like your clique comes to every thread to disparage modern fighters? Don't throw stones when your house is made of glass friend.

    My previous post summarized my position and the reasons for disengaging. Your response, which again avoids the core factual points that were raised, only confirms that this is an unproductive discussion.

    I've made my case, and I'm choosing to leave it there.

    Some people for sure but more so than other fighters who are considered great? That's the crux here.

    Part the reason why the majority of boxing fans probably wouldn't have Wladimir top 10 is actually because of those losses.

    Are Andre Ward, Lennox Lewis, and Oscar De La Hoya modern fighters? I like them.

    He did blow out Patterson in the 1st round twice bit Patterson always had a so-so chin and was the smaller man after there's not really a lot.

    Patterson was never championship material

    I don't usually find one sided schoolings all that entertaining, but after reading the one delivered by McGrain in this thread, I have sudden urge to watch Hopkins vs Pavlik tonight.

    Good shout. The Wlad vs Mormeck mismatch, for example, would have been more apt.

    Not even Byrd could have scored for Pavlik.

    Show me a single post of mine where I attempt to disparage all modern fighters or say they all suck.

    Within this very thread itself I said I have Wladmir in my top 10. :lol:

    Nah, I don't see it, MM.

    Whilst also clearly outmatched, at least Byrd exhibited some skill.
