    And I equally could care less. Which is fine. But I can't recall a single insight or bit of analysis from his posts. He has zero credibility with me.

    Please show footage of Firpo to what is even a half decent trainer by today's standards and tell him how an undersized heavyweight with almost zero skill who telegraphs his punches from a different zip code would possibly beat polished, athletically superior heavies like Wlad or Lennox.

    This forum's tailspin of echo-chamber reinforced moronic proclamations is nothing if not entertaining.

    Oh please, who would care if they had zero credibility with you, I mean who are you to have any credibility with? You are nobody but a hater.

    More stupidity from a guy who DKSAB. For one he was from Argentina and in today's world he would have a good trainer since you're an expert you should know that, but wait you DKSAB, so you dont know there have many great trainers and fighters since then in Argentina. I guess you dont mind displaying your stupidity time and again, yessir lol

    I am sorry but I am straight, calling me "dear" marks your sexual preference, sad. I guess it's kind of lonely on a ship

    Humphrey is relevant because the OP made the thread as a direct response to the one I made on Marciano and the Super heavies,if you don't know that then you are not paying attention

    But by drawing attention to big ol' Humphrey it reminds me how much overshadowed he was compared to part time losers Joe Murphey Gordwin, Terry "sorry" Sorrell and Clarance "boom-boom" Boone all landing fights with an actual number one contender despite the most appalling records.

    Lennox Lewis grinning, with his guard open, standing sideways, posing, bounced off the ropes ... waiting for Hasim Rahman to knock him out ... with the great trainer Emanuel Steward in his corner .... I wouldn't count on him avoiding any right hand.

    Then there's the time 260 pound, 5'10 Lionel Butler, who hadn't trained at all for the fight, except in crack dens and drive-in burger joints, managed to land some looping heavy-handed gloves on the great Lennox Lewis.

    Lets just agree you hate Liston,Foreman, and Williams and let it go at that ,this thread is about something entirely different.You're becoming the proverbial stuck record,repetitive and boring.
