    Yep, you just wasted a whole lotta words going over what we were already speaking about.

    I'm well aware, I've seen this footage before.

    That doesn't mean he couldn't be any kind of athlete, which is what I was arguing.


    How are you gonna quote something and then read it selectively? Answer your own question.

    The average contender now is more skilled than the average contender then, relative to their times, Andy Ruiz and Galento are both short fat limited fighters.

    An Iron chin and a lot of a heart, a game attitude and his balance is better than you'd think considering he's a circle on legs.
    You can turn someone like that into a decent fighter.


    Yeah, that's kind of what I imagine a modern version of him looking like, and with the right management, I see no reason why someone like Muralimov couldn'tve got a title shot in the modern age if he beat enough bums.



    Listen if you think this is a decent crop of heavyweights that we've got now, then you ain't been paying attention.

    Louis takes Povetkin apart in a fun fight. He may have to get up off the floor in this one, but he wins by late stoppage.

    No man the only rose tinted is you my man. Louis KTFO Povetkin by the 6th round. Joe steps inside one of those big swings and it's all over.
