    Do you have Downs?

    Do you compete in the "Olympics" every year, and everyone in the race along with you gets a medal?

    He knocked out Wlad in two rounds ... earning a #2 ranking by the WBC. And he fought Vitali for the title vacated by Lewis.

    He "earned" his rating by starching Wlad.

    Who cares if he was rated before the Wlad fight. He was rated AFTER the Wlad fight.

    Do you follow boxing at all? Do you realize that if you knock out a top rated fighter, and you get ranked because of that win ... that you EARNED that ranking?

    I'm done with this.

    Gotta go. The idiots are running loose.:deal

    I can see why you are resorting to this given the failure of your arguments so far, lets see if you can actually add one that works now -



    he shouldn't have been fighting for the title in the first place, which you keep ignoring.

    So you didn't offer an argument once again!

    I think Kushner may have been jealous of Corrie's mustache.

    The only involvement Sanders ever had with Kushner was when he fought Rahman on a HW showdown TV series put together by Kushner. Sanders was promoted by Berman for all of his career

    Everything you said was a lie.

    What?

    Go to every Heavyweight Explosion card Sanders appeared on. All were promoted by Cedric Kushner. Search individual press writeups on his fights ... Kushner is there.

    Here's some to get you started?

    Cedric Kushner on the Heavyweight Explosion series and HIS RISING STAR CORRIE SANDERS
    http://articles.philly.com/1993-07-...e-sanders-heavyweight-division-cedric-kushner

    Nate Tubbs beat Sanders ... Here's Nate Tubbs talking about Kushner promoting the fight.
    http://realcombatmedia.com/2013/02/nate-tubbs-speaks-real-combat-media/

    Johnny Nelson went to South Africa to fight Sanders ... here's Nelson talking about the promoter Cedric Kushner. (Who also staged Sanders-Warring.)
    https://books.google.com/books?id=T...epage&q=Corrie Sanders cedric kushner&f=false

    Sanders comes to New York to fight some nonentity in MSG ... Kushner is the promoter.
    http://www.nytimes.com/1996/08/20/sports/garden-debut-female-fighters-on-card.html

    NOTICE IN THE ABOVE LINK from 1996 it says Sanders was rated #3 by the IBF that year. (Before they sent him down the WBU trajectory.)

    1999 ... Possible Lewis-Sanders fight ... "Lewis' backer, Panos Eliades, is currently in discussions with Sanders' promoter, Rodney Berman and his American counterpart, Cedric Kushner." (LOOK UP WHAT COUNTERPART MEANS)
    http://www.angelfire.com/or/ultimateboxingguide/pressrelease.html

    Even after Kushner dumped Sanders ... and immediately after Rahman won the title from Lewis, Rahman said he'd fight Sanders again because Berman and Kushner work together.
    http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/boxing/1294098.stm

    I'm not going to do all this for you all day.

    Kushner promoted Sanders in South Africa and the U.S. until the Rahman fight ... and then it was basically over between them. Kushner went with Rahman. (And then Rahman dumped him when he beat Lewis.)

    Regardless, Sanders was as talented as the other top contenders. When he actually got a big fight, like 15 years into his career against Wlad, he won in dramatic fashion.

    Kushner bungled Sanders' career. Ensuring he wouldn't be ranked because of his WBU title was a mistake. Not getting him more than one fight a year, year after year, was a mistake. And on and on.

    Sanders was as good as Rahman, Maskaev, Tua ... and that night in Germany, Wlad ... the whole lot of them. They dropped the ball with Sanders' career.

    Read the post ABOVE.

    I won't respond to you again until you apologize to me.

    Until then, F*CK OFF.

    I hate talking to idiots who didn't even follow boxing then and have no f*cking clue what they're talking about.

    "he shouldn't have been fighting for the title in the first place" yeah but he did, which you keep ignoring :p

    stop harassing Doublechin, he clearly said he was out of here.

    Why would you post to him again Herol? Are you here just to harass our members??

    This states Kushner was Tubbs promoter. Not Sanders.

    I don't see anything.

    Kushner promoted a show Sanders featured on. Mentions nothing about Sanders being promoted by Kushner.

    The name being mentioned is that of Corrie Sanders, the South African whom Rahman stopped in seven rounds last May.

    Easy fight

    "He's the home town boy so that makes sense," said Rahman.


    "Sanders is tied up to Rodney Berman and I'm a Cedric Kushner man, and they work together so it's an easy fight to make.

    You're providing self defeating links.

    They had only worked together once , when they fought each other on Kushner's TV show

    He did not. And your links proved he did not. Rodney Berman was Corries career long promoter.

    NO, because HE picked up MY post correcting him if you hadn't noticed, and then ran off in a huff when he couldn't deal with the fact corrie shouldn't have got a shot at anything world level when he was subnational.


    And wat a lucky guess, you WERE answering my post...again (despite being told u are on ignore upteen times).

    If Sanders came out the SA townships and ko'd future atg Wlad in two rounds he'd be the hero of some bitter posters here, you all know it. That's the bottom line.
