Fixing Monte Cox`s All Time Heavyweight Ratings

Now you do, I can tell by this post your definitely an upgrade from him, or NOT!

 

I can see that for sure, Probably Holmes in his Prime also and maybe some others, if Tyson does not win early, he will look for an ear.

 

Nothing to fix. It’s all subjective opinion that would differ person to person depending on their level of knowledge and perspective.

 

Everyone loves to claim Sam Langford's Win over Gans is a feather in his cap at LW before Sam moved up, unitl you dig into it and find out the truth. Gan's had a tough long fight the night before, got on a long train ride to meet Langford for their bout, he also had some kind of Cold/Flu virus as he was sick for awhile before the trip and previous days fight, then arrived and had a short time to prepare then entered the ring vs. langford, by all accounts at Ringside i can find that were written on it, Gan's dominated with his excellent boxing skills for up to 6 rounds early in the fight, then after all of the above, the illness, the long train ride, the fight the day before, no rest or prep time before the fight, wore on him and wore him down and he lost, from all of that I would have to say Gans would easily have won if conditions had been optimal for both fighters, as they were for Langford, so I don't give Sam any credit for it, I think this hurts him, as he can't even dominate a LW as he is moving up to WW and beyond, and he had to have some power even at LW as he was physically the bigger man and growing and moving up in weight, yet he could not handle a LW for the 1st 6 rounds of the fight and even KO him in his sick, and weakened condition, what's that say about Sam, not a lot.

 

Thank you for that well thought out and lucid comment that really has added to this conversation, AWesOME analysis!

 

It's as good as anything anyone else has come up with, what have you come up with to counter it?

 

I would contend that doing nothing adds more to the conversation that this silly reductionist dreck.

 

Instead we get you, LOL!

 

LOL! what a silly comment to make, any attempt to gather as much info as anyone can on fighters at any weight is extremely helpful in the analysis of them as time goes on.

 

It's hamfisted hackery. The worst of the worst of Western Intellectual impulses applied by poorly by a poor subject.

I can't articulate in words how horrible this is.

 

Yeah, you mentioned that in this thread already.

Thousands of threads here, kid. You're welcome to troll more than one.

 

So Louis hits harder than... Louis?

Also the only person you listed that hits harder than Marciano is Foreman IMO. Dempsey's power may be below the likes of Tyson, Foreman and Marciano but he had his own unholy might of punching that could ruin a man
