    :lol: Numerous people have told you, your threads are absolute dog ****. Ever heard the saying: “If you run into an ******* (in your case a ****wit) in the morning, you ran into an *******. If you run into assholes all day, you're the *******.” Food for thought.

    Patterson learned to roll when he got older and really never got KO'd after Ingo and Liston so he became smarter like Foreman after losses, he should outclass Jumbo but the younger version could freeze

    Strange things happen in boxing all of the time. If anyone of us could perfectly predict how fights would turn out, we would have bankrupted Las Vegas a long time ago.

    Yeah but Cummings only managed a draw with an overweight, inactive, half blind 10 years past prime, totally shot Frazier.

    How would a journeyman in Cummings do as well against a prime, peak Frazier who convincingly beat the consensus number 1 or 2 heavyweight of all tim...why am I even having this discussion??

    I must be as bored as you.

    I believe Patterson was a rare case of a fighter who actually got better AFTER he lost the title.

    A fully confident Patterson takes him out with a gazelle punch but a Floyd with the fear he showed against Liston loses

    The same way how 40 to 1 underdog KO'd Mike Tyson.
