[GIF] Prime Joe Louis, freakish upper body

I wonder you aren't permanently bandaged like an Egyptian Mummy ,you are so thin skinned!

 

I'd say I know more about Joe Louis and Rocky Marciano than you do but what importance is there in that? I don't have posters they are for little boys bedrooms,I have framed photos and prints of boxers in the study.

 

I don't make fun of him or any other boxer I respect. I'm objective about all boxers ,those I like and those I dislike .I just find the fan boy hero-worship, the unquestioning lapping up of every exaggerated fairy tale nauseating. Name one cheap shot I've made about a boxers personal life.When evaluating a fighter I concentrate solely on his ability I couldn't give a f*ck what he was like as a person.

Time for my bed, I'm taking a couple of the grand kids to the fair tomorrow,before going to my local for some Real Ale ,need to be on form.

 

Nothing much bothers me here ,I despise Mendoza for what he is ,but the rest of you have as much importance to me as I have to you. You need to put some Arnica or WitchHazel on those bruises,otherwise you won't be able to play tomorrow.

 

This thread has gotten gayer than a basket of birds.

 

3.5" is a lot in terms of chest size.

 

They're all freaks!!! Lol

 

At the risk of sounding hostile...Yes, you're a fanboy. Once you fall for an old-school fighter, you seem to lose any ability to assess them critically and dispassionately. You are unable or unwilling to recognize their limitations and flaws-- in some instances, you even pretend that well-known weaknesses of these fighters are actually unrecognized strengths. These men can do no wrong in your eyes. You gush like a fawning devotee when they execute fairly ordinary (and sometimes even subpar) punches and tactics, and you often offer clips of such action accompanied by hysterical, borderline delusional write-ups. You've even raved about the fairly ordinary physiques of certain fighters and basic, humdrum training footage. You are the epitome of a fanboy. Own the label. Embrace it.

 

I truly enjoy a lot of Rez's contributions and his passion... But spot on.

 

Hey, Rez could be doing the opposite and downplaying Louis's or anyone else's resume, attributes, accomplishments, etcetera. You might think he's going overboard, we all go a little overboard sometimes, but maybe he sees something perceptive and brilliant that not many see. A certain significance of a fighter.

You're allowed to be subjective with your arguments as well. i'm just pointing it out from another angle is all.
