Heavyweights get the shaft on P4P lists.

Gonzalez hasn't been fighting anyone 10/20/30/40 pounds below him. Very pedantic

 

True, he hasn't, but he has won titles in three weight classes as a result of defeating opponents who all weighed between 105 and 112, a range of 7 lbs or 6.7 % .

By comparison, Marciano defeated opponents from 175 to 230, a 55 lb range or 31 %.

This earned him a title in only ONE weight class.

???

Pedantic ?

 

Thanks for the clarification, dude.

I wasn't sure if he was accusing the poster of being preachy over minutiae, or punctilious as to some trivia or other.

He might have meant to say pugnacious.

Or maybe he was suggesting that Wlad was like unto a pedant who abused small boys when he fights opponents so much smaller.


At any rate, you've shone your usual flashlight of explification and deobfusication on the matter and I can sleep the sleep of the enlightened.

 

Certainly not !

Why would you think I meant defecation ? :fire

 

If you-me-got hit by a decent boxer fifty pounds heavier, would the coroner said it was pedantic....just wondering!

 

Apologies, my man.

It's very late and I seem to have mixed up some vowels there.

As to d-e-i-f-i-c-a-t-i-o-n, I'm not given much to matters religious, but in this instance, that'll do just fine as well.

 

It's not entirely clear that Webbiano has used the word correctly here, matt.

I wouldn't worry too much about it.

I mean I wouldn't worry about his usage.

Getting hit by some gigantic MF and needing a coroner, is worthy of worry.

 

I thought pedantic meant making a point that is basically irrelevant. It wasn't meant to be offensive, just how I felt about the point. Clearly my vocab is levels under you guys.

 

No problem, Webbiano.

All's good.

 

in all fairness I still don't understand what you were talking about, I'll work it out eventually.mI'll just pretend it's nonsense until then after all BE was involved

 

I'm just glad you care Ke-mo sah-bee
