    It is without a shadow of a doubt better than the Dempsey era on the FACT that Dempsey refused to fight any black fighters thus not taking on the best possible challnegers out there.

    Technically Wlad never took on the best contender during the majority of his time as champion. Just sayin...;)

    Actually that is a rebuttal, and a fact. Now if you want to really get info it why dont you tell me how many contenders fought one another from the time Dempsey won the title till losing it. Of course that is impossible for you since you have little means to do so since the annual rankings dont start till 1924 and rrcords are shoddy at best before that. So in reality you have no room to make the claim the era is weaker than this one. Now.if you want to claim Wlad the greater champion i may be inclined to agree with you. As far as trying to make a comparison to this era...you have no idea what you're talking about. :hi:

    You're actually right about that.

    I find JAB5239 amusing because although 99% of his posts and threads are bashing East European boxers, he claims to not be nationalistic and to have no prejudice against Slavic people. He says he roots for exciting boxers over boring ones with negative styles, yet he's rooting for Hopkins over Kovalev.

    Refusing to fight your best comp because of skin color makes Dempsey's era weak. Plain and simple.

    Yep, ok. It diminishes the champion, not the era.

    So i guess this era has been diminished because Wlad never fought Vits. Cant have it both ways kid. :nono
