    I for one am very proud of the "Usyk slander" posts I've gotten dragged through the mud for.

    You got laughed off of this forum for saying Otto Wallin was a top 10 fighter. Make another alt and keep crying.

    Usyk's style is based on speed, agility, reflexes. He's nearly 40 and has been dominating top competition in ams, cw, pro for 15 years without losing. His legacy is going to be ok.

    I've never had an alt...

    But keep posting your knowledge. We all enjoy a good laugh :beer-toast1:

    - edit: From what I can tell this was the last point I made about Wallin being top 10. People agreed. Then, arguments continued for another year...
    This here GOAT claim is another daft thread

    I've never even heard of Leif Larsen. You seem to have a rather odd view of what constitutes a big win. I would say all the following were better than Hammer

    Wlad
    Povetkin
    Fury
    Wilder
    Pulev
    Ortiz
    Chisora
    Jennings
    Stiverne
    Parker
    Ruiz
    Etc

    Evan Wach has a good argument based on beating Hammer

    Larsen was a guy from some other sport that was freakishly strong, who got into contention before being beaten by Solis and Hammer.

    Your opinion is worthless. You died on the hill of Otto Wallin being top 5-10.

    You did leave yourself open with slandering Lewis for getting wrecked twice where he set it right in rematches, and walking away from Vitali because he was an old fighter at that point and just had a slugfest for the ages with him. Usyk is getting old which no doubt played a part and he'll have to have a rematch to set it right against a 1 fight novice (that is only one side of the story, Verhoeven is clearly very skilled). I actually agree with everything you said in the other thread and referenced most of that kind of stuff in a lot of my posts.

    That sounds quite cutting but (1) no one but you really cares that much about Wallin beyond the historical record and (2) you are claiming Usyk is the GOAT :risas3:

    Keep imparting your knowledge. You do make us all laugh

    You died on that hill, and there you remain. Otto Wallin, helluva fighter. Top 5 some say.

    When you say "us all" you mean you and your alts? Imagine needing a fighter to have a bad performance to have the courage to post on your main account. Sad.

    You've completely lost the plot. And who are these alts you are clearly obsessed over

    I've been posting consistently between, you know (well maybe you don't), attending fights and having a life.

    If people are arguing with you about whatever it is that you are ranting about on any given day, only a psychotic would think they are all the same person.

    Touch some grass. Or better yet, visit a boxing gym - you might learn something

    That's the thing, it seems he's been having on going arguments with Alts - apparently.

    I dont have a clue what he's on about:lol:
