    Been watching since the early 90s:think Well you got to pay more attention, anyways even if you have your still a newb:yep By the early 90s i was already chopping it up on big time boxing radio shows with old timers on boxing,already had been to countless big fights.. 37 at feather is ancient for a light guy like Johnny where as at SM or LH its not too old. You should know that if youve been watching boxing as long as you say you have. Johnson could punch end of story!! Jones was undeafeated at the time and did to him what many great fighters after couldnt. Also he finished Augie faster 3 rounds faster than Naseem and with much ease unlike Naz.

    by the early 90's you were chopping it up on big time boxing radio shows with old timers??

    well good for you.. i might set up a shrine and give praise to you i'm that impressed.

    yes, it's different for old fighters at the lower weights than it is for fighters in the higher weights.. but the point still stands.

    you saying 37 is not too old for SM or LH's has me laughing.. thanks for the joke.:lol::nut

    and yes, poison was undefeated when johnson knocked him out, but he still had a glass jaw.

    johnson did to jones what many great fighters after, couldn't?

    well how do you explain the super BUM pinckney knocking him out in 3 rounds only 2 fights later, hmmm.?:think.. plus, mckinney and morales both did it in 4.. MUCH better than johnson did.

    sanchez did get knocked out by johnson earlier than naz did it.. are you saying johnson punches harder than naz?

    THIS IS THE LAST POST I'M GOING TO MAKE WERE YOU'RE CONCERNED.. BECAUSE YOU'RE CLEARLY ******ED.. SO LONG OLD TIMER!!

    jones was only 2 years older than calzaghe.. try again.

    hopkins was 42 and nowhere near past it.. he was no.3 PFP in the world.he then went on to dominate every second in his next fight against the undefeated kelly pavlik.. as i say, try again.
