If SRR beat Burley or Holman Williams...

He rounds up my top 5 behind my goats and armstrong :good

 

Now, now, just because Luf enjoys midget bowling doesn't mean you should take him to task for his disdain of Langford. (I myself have frequently enjoyed clandestine midget bowling tournaments in upstate New York ever since their legislature outlawed this highly pleasurable social pastime activity. I know some hot punk dwarf chicks who really dig being skidded across a long polished floor surface as tenpin projectiles.)

 

Just as I thought I was used to your posting style and humour, you throw this post out there and completely befuddle me!

I have no idea what this means

 

Post surgical stress disorder. (It's gonna be a looong convalescence!)

Luf, was Lester right in accusing you of hating Langford? Do you really hate short people that much? (And if I'm starting to get predictable, maybe those shot glasses of hydrocodone liquid are a timely treatment for fixing that.) I've been unloading some really weird posts for a few days now, and the strangeness may be just beginning.

 

Several of the greatest fighters in history were short. :bart :thumbsup

 

Still the 1. Any list you read has him at the top. When you say taken over in recent years by many, are you meaning here on this classic forum? Cause in the real world, Sugar Ray Robinson reigns supreme. Thouse who saw Benny Leonard being long dead. As are the Robinson writers and trainers and fighters of the era. But Benny 's crew and followers a lot longer. And Burley was good, but people get carried away. For my money though, the man is Charles. But othe overall concensus has not changed. It is Robinson. If there was film of Robby from 40-49 at welter, you would see why.

 

Nooooo!!!!!!:admin:admin:admin:admin:admin(Really?:huh)

Well anyhow, for my pre-op physical, the nurse asked my height, and I gave her the same height I've been recorded at for decades. She said, "Really? Wanna check that out for sure now? Take off your shoes, and come out to this hallway measure on the wall!" In my socks, she had me stand with my heels flat against the wall, press my shoulders back against it as well, placed the measure on my head, smiled and said, "You wanna hear the bad news? You're two inches shorter than you thought!"atsch Ahh well... Maybe I can market tee shirts with the saying,

Hey, Walker did it at the weigh-in for Sharkey, Ketchel for Johnson, and Frazier wore them all the time.

(Hell, if a tee shirt which says, "I'm fat, but you're ugly, and I can diet," can take off...)

Duo going into meltdown?

I don't hate short people, I rank armstrong the 4th in history

 

Hell my friend a fighter was so short his feet couldn't reach the canvas !
That's short ...

 

Hey brother, I've been there since a week before last Friday, but now the seams (stitches?) have split.

Well, I'd sure hate trying to use tall people for those midget bowling tournaments. (And for whatever it's worth, I've been pushing for Sarron, the only champion Hank dethroned who's not yet enshrined in Canastota, to be inducted into the IBHOF since at least 2009 here. Petey, my fellow Syrian, was actually two and a half inches shorter than Armstrong.)

 

:rofl

 

Good to see you still posting in these parts burt! Never give up the faith!

 

It's strange how different Boxing sites develop different opinions on fighters.

I personally have it this way:

1. Robinson
2. Armstrong
3. Greb


Robinson's record is incredible but the video footage also shows the most perfect boxer ever recorded.

Armstrongs title winning run from feather to the draw with Garcia is the greatest feat in boxing in my view.

Greb deserves all the props in the world but maybe there is slightly too much love for him on ESB. I had a guy on here try to tell me that Greb had, from any type of moral view,won the fight series with Tunney by majority verdict. That seem a bit out there to me.

 

01. Robinson
02. Armstrong
03. Greb
04. Langford
05. Charles
