    According to the sarcasm metric. You didn't get it did you?

    Still a power punching monster, yet predictably it isn't quite the same in its destructiveness when he fought bigger guys.

    Depends. If they are rating them overall, Roy's answer of Toney is fine. Toney's answer of McCallum isn't though. Because no way in hell is McCallum better than Roy by any metric. However if they're rating them for their performance against them, then both are lying and their pride is talking for them.

    If you think that was easily detectable sarcasm then you really don't know how to present it as such in text form, I recommend you work on it.

    Not too aware of the shaver’s career, but I put Wlad ahead of Lewis as for power. Most definitely
