    I guess Michael Moorer, Axel Schulz, Crawford Grimsley, Lou Savarese and arguable Shannon Briggs were just all complete and total bums to have been beaten by an old man.

    No way any boxer in his 40's can beat let alone hold his own against a younger man.

    Let me guess.... You were flicking through the music channels on your Sky Box last night. Accidently tuned into some boxing match. Watched it till the end, heard something mentioned about George Foreman and then went on Boxrec, looked up his record and wrote the first thing that came into your head?

    I reckon that sums it up perfectly.

    I've been following boxing for 8 years. All I'm saying is Hopkins was no bum, and he's part of a miniscule group of fighters who maintained his ability into his mid fourties.

    Axel Shulz gave Foreman a thorough and comprehensive whupping. It was one of the most blatant robberies I have ever seen. I bet it doesn't say anything about that on Boxrec.

    Well actually, the MD is a pretty good indication.

    I don't really understand the point of this thread. What exactly are you saying DS?

    Your initial post didnt come off as clever or ironic im afraid.Just confusing. Whoever said Hopkins or Foreman were bums anyway?

    Glad we got that cleared up.

    What language was that opening post written in anyway; I don't recognise it as one used on this planet. Would someone be able to do an English translation so that I can understand what it is he is getting at.
