    Joe Frazier was a shuffling blind one dimensional fighter. His best ability was to keep getting up.

    Why would you even put him on this list with other greats?

    Who has Jack Johnson?

    Jack Sharkey best ability was to pollute everyone's record with his name. The reason people think he is good is because he shows up on everyone's win record. His best punch was below the belt.

    Now who gets Tyson?

    Surprised Sailor Tom Sharkey has not been ripped into and dissected yet by the vultures.

    He's like a worse Marciano, surely!

    So far we have gotten to Mike Tyson already. We just have to have somebody flame him, then we will be on to Tunney. We can save Dempsey for you!

    OP did say Hate of the Month.... Well, That would be May. I wonder if we can get to the end of the list in time and before June 1.

    Mike Tyson fulfilled all the initial early expectations that people had for him as a raw mean looking youngster entering a gym for the first time .....

    .... when he was sent to prison!

    Gene Tunney was given all he could handle against a blown up Middleweight in Greb , Should have lost to the badly shot Dempsey but got the long count gift. He was stiff as wood and suffered greatly from suckitas.

    He would not win the Golden Gloves in the Amateurs today.

    Next up Is Leon Spinks

    Does Leon Spinks really need a bias hate comment? His career was objective ****, outside of a win against a 38 y/o Parkinson's suffering Ali.

    Just wait till you see this quote about Jack Sharkey written by a news reporter from the 30's. It'll shatter the false idol once and for all.
