    So you watched all 6 fights within 5 minutes? You must be good at manipulating spacetime then.

    Sure, but Haye doesn't have top 20 resume of all-time. Loughran looked good beating great opponents.

    I haven't, didn't mean for it to sound like I had, watched the clip you sent, and then thought of that ridiculous montage Haye put out a few years ago.

    You're right! I see, you have only been here for a few days… so the first "LOL" was uncalled for. I apologize for that.

    The second "LOL" was not really directed at you - but at the "delusion free responses".

    Jones and Ali had head movement. Jones being the best shot slipper of all time. Loughran did not. That's a huge weakness. We all saw what happened when Jones reflexes slipped. Ali low hands is part of the reason he lost against Frazier. The knockdown in that fight is a direct result of this mistake. Same with Hamed against Barrera, his low guard cost him time and again.

    Loughran's strength is his movement, I'll give you that. That alone wouldn't work against most modern boxers. Ruiz doesn't use lateral movement but he takes half steps better than Loughran to stay in and out of range. Also you're ignoring the fact Ruiz has a better right and left hook.

    He is much better than them despite being smaller.

    Much better? Mickey Walker would beat him badly...

    At WW Walker would get badly schooled. He has a punchers chance as a 160lb but Mayweather would easily outbox him as Walker tried to land his wild punches.

    That's your opinion, but I disagree. Walker would be stronger and tougher in this matchups and he was phenomenal at using smart agressive pressure. Your description of wild brawler is way off here. Walker was extremely good fighter who was crafty and skilled at finding opportunities.

    Loughran looks like Charlie Chaplin trying time box, and I swear it has nothing to do with the cameras.

    Put Grebs resume aside. Put aside all the testimonials on him, the ring reporters, and his extensive accomplishments. I don’t care about any of that, because we have a 20 second clip of him sparring, and he looks awful. And therefor I have made my mind up that he was trash.
