    Patterson was a natural cruiser, Charles a natural lhw

    This discussion is pointless at this point. Patterson was a natural cruiser because Charlietf likes him more than Charles, nothing else. His argumentation is inconsistent as hell and it's nothing new.

    Because at 21 floyd could not make the lhw limit anymore or he was too drained and charles was fully developed weighing 175 and looked natural and perfect, Floyd looked natural and perfect at 188-192, it is a natural cruiser

    So Charles doesn't look natural at 184 lbs against Louis?

    No. He was 10 pounds heavier above his best weight

    Floyd, aged 21, fought at 178lbs. I'm sure if he really wanted, he could've fought at LHW. Floyd looked fleshy at 188-192 BTW.

    Charles filled out at 175, but put on extra muscle mass to move up. Patterson did the exact same thing, and like Patterson, Charles put on fat as well as muscle as he got older.

    He looked as fine as ever against Louis, it was spectacular performance. He looks perfectly fine at over 180 lbs.

    Yes it was his thread since he started it.

    You and logic do not go together.

    Ask him what his intention was. Send him a message and ask him.

    How many people even get their IQ measured these days?

    You can interpret things however you want, which is obviously what lead to your confusion.

    I mean you interpreted a post by one man as a post by me.

    You go ahead judging Charles by his losses after Marciano, I'm happy for you.

    In what do we seem like one person?

    You consistently spout nonsense.

    As I said, carry on judging past prime losses, well done you.

    No one has a similar style of writing to you, that's for sure.

    What is your first language?
