    I asked you politely the first time and you ignored it, so obviously the way I'm saying it make no difference. You act like a *****, I'm going to treat you like one.

    Stop being a ***** for 5 minutes and just engage in the debate honestly. This is why nobody like you.

    He literally is "leagues above them"
    I find your orginal post utterly bizzare.

    "proven big punchers" proven against who?
    George Koed Joe, Ken, Lyle, Moorer. 3 in the hall of fame. How many HOF's have the aforementioned trio koed?
    68 KOs, and in this case the stats, but more importantly the 'eye test' doesn't lie.
    Either go get some glasses or do more boxing research.

    "Leagues above them" imply that he hit far harder than them. It's not like we are talking about Buster Mathis or Tony Tubbs : Bruno, Smith and Ruddock were known for their punching power.
    So what's "utterly bizarre" in my post ?

    I didn't know that Norton and Moorer had great chins lol.
    Talking about stats, Bruno had 38 KO out of 40 wins. And even an iron chinned guy like McCall ranked him among the hardest punchers he faced.
    Ruddock knocked out cold Smith who had a very good chin, and Dokes. He stunned Tyson several times.
    Smith stopped Weaver and Witherspoon in one round. He was also one of the few who rocked back Tyson in his prime. But he also demonstrated a lack of finishing abilities. This is why some opponents took him the distance.

    Anyway, KO ratio doesn't always tell the whole story. You have to take into account others factors.

    Reflect on this, it’s a make believe discussion on par with Batman vs Superman and this is how you think it is acceptable to speak to people? :sisi1 Get over yourself mate, have some manners.

    Refusing to answer questions is bad manners.

    This is all you do: weasel out of a discussion when someone makes a valid point or asks you something that could unravel your agenda. Evasive, ***** like behavior. So yes, it's definitely acceptable to speak to you this way since your want to behave like a *****. Pretty simple.
