    Hi Lance brother. Not seen your posts for a while . Trust you are well? He is retired but still making millions from exhibitions against nonentities so that is pretty smart don’t you think?

    Doing OK. Floyd is a non-factor is today's professional boxing. He's a side show at best.

    True but talking of smarts he is making serious money post his career. I think we understand each other points. On a separate note what did you think of the stoppage in Wood vs Lara at the weekend?

    I have no idea, but out of the guys I like watching be interviewed, I think Hrgovic is often the most witty.

    Blasphemy! Jake Paul doesn't belong in the same library, much less the same sentence as Ali and/or Usyk.

    p.s. in that picture, Jake Paul looks like Ogre from Revenge of the Nerds.

    Lomachenko is brilliant in the ring.

    Strongly disagree


    They talk all that smack beforehand

    ''Jake ain't this. Jake ain't that''

    ''You just a Disney kid, Jake''

    ''You ain't a real fighter''

    ''You're all hype''

    But they realize very quickly that Jake is built different and was born to do this as soon as that first bell rings.

    Chat poop, get banged out

    Strongly disagree and am baffled by your man-worshipping of a YouTube clown. The "they" that you refer to includes not one single boxer. Anderson Silva dabbling in boxing is as laughable as anyone who would call Ray Mercer or James Toney an MMA fighter.

    Carl Froch would stomp a mudhole in Jake's backside.

    I worship no man

    I do, however, recognize and pay due respect to greatness when I see it

    MMA is a far superior martial art than boxing and MMA fighters are far superior combat athletes to boxers. I'm starting to lose count of the amount of times MMA has humiliated boxing such is the frequency it happens these days

    This is the latest chapter in the MMA>>Boxing saga

    MMA fighter Greg Hardy lost his last three MMA fights by KO or stoppage all in the 1st or 2nd round

    He then crosses over to boxing and proceeds to not only drop and repeatedly hurt the son of the legendary former HW champ Hasim Rahman who had over 100 amateur fights but he actually outboxed and out-slicked him too :facepalm:

    And in his very next fight, this time a bare knuckle bout, he got KTFO again in 2 rounds

    I have no idea who this guy is who sparkled him out but he looks like a 60 y/o weeble wobble bum :facepalm:

    Do you know what Jake's record is against the superior code of MMA?

    Greg "Woman Beater" Hardy beating Hasim Rahman, Jr. and then losing to a 60 y/o weeble wobble pales in comparison to the 48-year-old Ray Mercer's NINE second KO of two-time UFC Heavyweight Champion (33 years old at the time) Tim Sylvia.

    I respect MMA and I respect Boxing. Using one to downgrade the other is disingenuous.
