    I couldn't disagree more.

    Head to head ability, is 100% speculative, when you compare fighters from different eras.

    At least when you compare their resumes, you have some sort of data to constrain it.

    Very few disagree that Robinson is the greatest performer in the sport- the few that don’t have different angles rather then going against the mainstream opinion for the sake of it.

    Vitali did less then Burns- Vitali would smack Burns around like a small child. Myth busted.

    Not exactly, because you can never ultimately prove the second proposition.

    You might consider it to be highly likely, but you can never prove it.

    So what you’re saying is you don’t know much about boxing outside history?

    Did Maidana knock him down? Or outbox him?
