    Hear is Julio Cesar Chavez being outclassed by Pernell Whitaker.

    The draw was a bad decision on the judges part.
    What is important hear is that Chavez who was highly ranked but past his best and fighting at a weight well past his best weight did not quit.

    Louis basically quit in the first fight vs. Schmeling. But he showed tremendous heart and toughness when the going got tough against Marciano and Charles. Is he a joke and a quitter too?

    What??? Terrible blatant lie there from you, Duranimal mark II. Louis took several vicious blows to the head and was knocked down:?

    Duran walked out mid-fight, mid-round because he was being embarrassed

    Why did you even think of making that **** up????? I'm sure everyone on this board has seen Louis v Schmeling

    He was perfectly capable of getting up. He lay there shaking his head and let himself get counted out, i.e. "I don't want any more."

    Heres the thing, you're putting words into Louis' mouth, than never actually came out. Where as Duran did infact say that. Louis actually got knocked down and couldnt get to his feet. Duran quit mid-fight because he was being embarrassed.

    This is terrible from you, itry

    For a gentleman so confident and self assured of his bullet points you sure shot thru fast (again) with not even a single attempt at rebuttal on any single point even tho i gave plenty to take on.

    Cheers tho, it was good.

    :lol: Itry has flipped. Louis may have been able to get up but he was pretty out of it and knew he'd be sparked if he tried getting up after already taken a helacious. Quite different from taking your bat and ball home after your opponent sticks his tongue out at you
