    Jimmy was never hurt by Lyle that I saw. I think it would have been a miracle if it HAD BEEN Louse instead of lyle, given Joe's age and the fact that it was Ron Lyle who signed the contract! lol But, not to discredit Gerrie, I thought he was excellent, deceptively fast, one of the best KO punchers ever. But to think Jimmy couldn't do what Spinks did a few yrs later would be just stupid. That night, I think young was there to kick some ass, really. The only one hurt vs Young including Norton/Lyle/Ali and but one time Forman was not Young!

  3. Holy shite , i thout i had bad speling . U ****ing jack wagon , / HAD IT BEEN LOUIS , Yung wud be K0'D W/in the ,
    1$T round , and u can't say nothin bout tht, m8 . This is cumin from the , man who stopped Walcott , Max Bear, and Schmeling . YET U THINK YOUNG WUD HAVE ANY KIND OF CHANCE AGAINST "LOUSE" as u say! HAHAHA

    Jimmy , got fukin pummeled by Lyle c0nsistently , on the ropes w/ no response , he tried trading right hands w/ Lyle and left hooks , and brootal body sh0ts. Do Not Fukin tell me Young , was not HURT. He was hurt, m8. :nono


    spinks , he -actualy has recorded ,
    knockouts on film so of course he is capable of knocking out Cooney , oh and he actualy throws punches. ... dont ****in tell me,
    tht SHITE . Did he ,
    even land any sh0ts on Cooney ? ???????

    First of all, what is a jack wagon? Is that the lunch truck you frequent. Second, I am so sorry about my spelling, I'm sure a person of you're quite obvious intelligence must be so frustrated by that. I don't recall Jimmy being pummeled on the ropes, though Lyle was. And he did hit Cooney and backed him up too. But, I understand you're frustration with me saying young would've ended up kicking Coony's ass. I just looked at Gerries ring record, I too would cling to the belief that young couldn't whup him if I were you. He really doesn't have any wins to speak of if you don't count Young, Norton and Lyle, all were past it. At least Young had great wins to his credit, despite the judges. Who did Gerrie ever beat really?

    I love how he bullies Ron on the ropes yet still uses his defensive skill to avoid most of Ron's heavy shots. He outfought him, on the inside and outside. With a different ref that slip could have been scored a knockdown.

    "TheHammerof63" might have a point that Lyle landed a few heavy punches here and there, but not enough to really bother Jimmy. Ron was clearly hurt at certain points of the fight.

    Jimmy wasn't a ko guy, but that right hand of his got the other guy's attention alright. It is not an easy thing to feint Ali and Jimmy did it all night after landing those straight rights early. And Young feinted George as well, and Foreman had a style that just ignored feints and burrowed on ahead. Lyle and Norton fell for his feints after getting clipped too.

    There simply had to be something on that punch to get that level of opposition to react the way they did. A nothing punch gets a nothing reaction from those guys.

    But it's a boxing misnomer--kind of like Frazier had no right hand. Completely wrong. He always threw a million body punches with it and was very accurate when he did throw. And just how many heavies like right hands to the breadbasket anyway? But after Ali, nobody seems to look at heavyweight right hands unless they are upstairs--and that's the punch Joe did not throw well.

    Cooney had killer instinct, spd, power, but never beat anyone rated in the top ten. Got news for you, Jimmy Young did. Just beating Lyle twice and Foreman, gives him better credentials the cooney. And at least Jimmy has those disputed loses, Ali, Norton, Shavers, which are the best examples, that so many people think he actually one. I don't think anybody think Gerrie beat Holmes, Spinks or Foreman. Young was right up there on top in the seventies, Cooney wouldn't have even been a contender back then.
     
  11. U have 1 Way of , twisting 1 facts .

    BOTTOM LINE , U Often do Give Credit 4 ,
    1 (one) win Tht Yung never actualy ,
    acheived .
    Ali BEAT YUNG . BULLIED YUNG! PUHSED YUNG THRU 1 ROPES!
    LYLE & SHAVERS DID,
    DRAW WITH MR. FEATHER FIST ,
    N If I do Recall ,
    Shavers did indeed TKO
    Yung!
    YUNG WAS NOT CONVINCING ENUF 2 HAVE 1 GREAT CAREER !
    Mabye if he had 1 punch , or u know , managed 2 AT LEAST TRY ,
    2 Get a KO ,
    Maybe , just mabye ,
    He wud B.
    Able 2 have a great Career ,
    simlar like Cooney !

    Cooney actualy made LOTS of money ,
    he is livin' lavish , enjoyin himself .

    Meanwile , Yung had 2 Keep Fightin until ,
    he was

    Young was the better fighter. Had great wins in the best heavyweight era. Lyle never had a drw with Young, only two losses. Put Cooney in the heavyweight picture of the seventies. Put him in with Ali, Young, Lyle, Norton, Holmes, Shavers, Frazier. Holmes was 33 when he beat Cooney, Spinks 31 and Foreman 41. Do you really think he could hang with the guys of the seventies back then? Young did.
     
  13. 2 Me , it is vry disputed if it waz even ,
    de best hvyw8 era of ,
    2 me it was clearly NOT .

    Noneoftheless , i do not tnd 2 believe tht he rly had ANY TRU GR8 WINZ,
    M8 .

    Cooney alrdy spanked, n dismantled/eliminated Norton , Lyle , n Young in impresive fashion ,Say wat u must about 1 state of de fighters @
    that Point , They Still Had Sumthin left . Young DID Come back 2 "win" ,
    against A Few Bums . Cooney put 1 beatin on Young , he DID make Yung irrelevent 4 Da rest of 1 Bloake's career.

    Frazier wud have supurb diffikulty w/
    dealin' w/ Cooney 's best Left Hooks . For once in his ,
    sub-par career (1 Career entirely based on beatin' Cassius Clay), 1 career based on gettin' beat by Forman , Frazier wud be put to 1 test against a MONSTOROUS
    Left Hook3r Whom,
    Cud hook as good As Himself . Add 1 height , reach , n Speed advantage , u have urself a rap . However , Frazier's DETERMINATION

    Shavers had a VERY shaky chin ,tht wud most likely b.-
    1 Shootout w/ Cooney goin on top ,
    Or Shavers Catchin Cooney ,
    n ending it . I Tend 2 Think ,
    Cooney's Superior Speed wud
    Catch SHavers So0ner Or later ,m8.

    2 Answer ur Q , Yes ,
    Cooney wud bang wit the best of 1 70s , prob wud
    ****in' KO Quarry , Stop him on 1 Cuts .

    Cooney WUD have brought MANY new things 2 (1) one,
    Table/Toolbench , He Wud Bring Height , Power , Underated Jab , Speed ,
    N LEFT HOOKS .

    It is Not UP 4 DEBATE! Cooney wud have at least ,
    STUNNED Casius Clay in a shoot out , Clay wud be careles &
    Get 2 Cocky . Look at my m8 ,
    Ol Enry , He Nearly KO'd Clay .
