    Dude it is fine if you have a different opinion.
    But leave aside the insulting "crap" part: everyone can tell you could not contest a *single fact*.
    Are you at this levl in your whole life? Where you only assert premises, but cannot provide, nor refute, any evidence?

    That is perhaps more of a modern malady-but it exists on all sides.
    Meaning there are those on the left who also cannot handle or deal with any debate-it is all simplistic faith on "their" side.
    If they are correct on any issue, it is coincidental-they just picked a side, normally going with whatever was PSYCHOLOGICALLY CONVENIENT. Most often agreeing with their family & peers.

    Even if you disagreed, it is telling that you do not address the tendency of people to always support their tribe.
    You clearly are in that category. I doubt you have weighed any issues carefully, & independently thought to differ with what you are told is appropriate to "your" side---> in any cases.

    People like this are perfect victims for brainwashing by demagogues & Monsters...

    Some of the thing Ali did were viewed as great in his age, the leftists will criticize him non stop nowadays. They'd say he is a racist and that he bellitles women, and give him bad publicity.

    You have a point..I was looking at it from more of a boxing point of view I guess but yea everything unfortunately involves political statements and everyone's hurt feelings.

    Should we really talk about politics here? Isn't there a better place for this?

    No disrespect mean to the participants, I have no enmity against any of those people mentioned above.

    With all due respect, you are correct, this political dialogue is for the Lounge. The 2020 election is over, we already know who won, he now occupies the White House.

    Hey friend, I have a question with the upmost respect intended, are you trying to create dissention? Tyson is your man, we get it, but not everyone feels as you do. No more of Tyson fighting sharks. We need to be civil and peaceful to one another. Look forward to your future threads.

    Like I have posted before friend, some women love the bad boys, some guys love the bad girls, but both sexes are probably one can short of six pack, or slipped off of their cracker

    Lol I was just asking a simple question to invite a discussion. No need to get defensive about it if the thread has more divided opinions than you like

    Not being defensive, we just need to respond to new material, someone will say Tyson is better, others will say Ali was or Joe Louis. I think you are intelligent enough to come up with a different topic, It would be interested in seeing different kind of threads than the usual, Tyson vs Ali threads. Do you have another favorite fighter? But you are right, if it is the same old have to ask about Tyson thread, I will not respond.

    So far, someone has posted 3 times that they will not respond to this thread.
    If a person doesn't like the thread then ignore it, simple.
    How hard is it?
