    quarry- is that one of Canada's priemier Whale fisherman on your avatar, oh thats just george chuvalo. Trevor Berbick did a lot more then Chuvalo did, in his career. Yeah I saw the brutal tyson KO but look at Chuvalo crappy record. Sometimes I wonder with all the papa chuvalo love ,if Berbick wasn't one of the more sane ones in canada !

    Us guys dont have agendas we just like to talk about boxing with others who like to talk about boxing. By the very nature of our knowledge we end up discussing fighters we preferred and subsequently know more about.

    If anything it seems to me like you are the man with the agenda.

    Chuvalo could have been a better power lifter then fighter, Did you see the way he man handled little Doug Jones, 184 pounds ? Hercules ! Hercules !

    Yes I am.

    But what is much more important is that they did not beat those fighters.

    Greb did.

    You can speculate until the cows come home aboput how they would have fared against these fighters and it can only ever be speculation. That Greb beat them is fact.

    As long as this is the case the fighters you have listed will only ever be pygmies next to Greb.

    Quite the opposite! You see my agenda for today is checking in awe at how well your thread is doing. Epic!
    It's quite something to see how well you're received amongst your peers.

    Spoken like a true nut-hugger!
    Seriously though, that's spot on.

    Could be a new craze?

    and one can base Chuvalo on his resume filled with loses and failure. I think that is the subtle point Quarry is trying to make. Watch Zora Folley vs Chuvalo, you'll see a horribly one sided fight ( although not brutal) between a world class fighter and a top club figher. See Virgil Hill vs Joey Degrandis, same damn thing

    your whole point of being on this forum is your Lennox Lewis Agenda with you whistling the same old tune day in day out. Lennox beat every man he ever got in the ring with, The referee counted too fast, Lennox was not motivated, Tyson was at his peak and would never beat Lennie because Lennie would just keep him behind the jab coz Lennie is too big and too strong blah blah blah... i have spoiled your agenda. i have exposed everything you claim to be nothing but a myth. you are now angry at me and dont like me for saying those things about Lennox because it means you have nothing to say on the forum like you had a few months ago. because i have exposed everything as you claimed as lies :lol: you tried to deny what i said to be wrong but it was so simple for me to show it all to be Fact.. your not a boxing fan, your a little hero worshipper. get a life you sad little clown and grow up

    i totally agree its impossible to say Mayweather would beat Tyson.. yet in a specific division (say 160lbs) ranking a fighter you must use H2H match ups against those you are also ranking alongside him. eg Hagler v Robinson, Cerdan, Walker, Monzon, Ketchell, Langford etc and not just fire Hagler in at No2 because you like the guy :huh yet the reality of this is that in H2H against those guys Hagler gets beaten, so you ask the question "is Hagler really a Top 10 fighter in such a hugely competitive division of great fighters".
