    Leonard did not destroy him. Fight was practically even.

    People are entitled to their opinions, even if they do not square with majority understandings. Simply having an opinion that others disagree with is not enough reason to justify a ban, sorry.

    Of course you did, you were lying to yourself and the public.

    You know for a fact that he doesn't.

    If you read the guy's threads, it's obvious that he's a troll, but he's declining in his troll game here.

    Usually he doesn't start a topic that's been debated a thousand times, instead going for better ones like "can re****s box?"

    nah

    it's probably hagler most overrated. he totally cleared out the middleweight division two times over from some mean and nasty middleweights, and then had the nerve to fight duran, hearns and leonard at the end of his career.

    By your logic JCC has a record padded with bums. He didn't fight anyone of note until he had 50+ fights or so. He lost to a journey man in Randell. And Bla bla bla. You look at who he fought opposed to how he fought. In or near their primes these guys only lost to great fighters and never lost to good fighters. Lets not forget, Duran won his first belt in 72. You could argue he was on the down slide when he met SSR but, what he did after that fight would blunt that argument. The man was plain bad in his prime and his skill set allowed him to venture into territory that an average fighter wouldn't even think of going, including your boy SRR. Give the man his just dues! If you don't it shows that you are just a plain hater or lack basic boxing knowledge.

    I didn't say that you hated him. You were attempting to hate on him. You can't. He was never over hyped.
