Jimmy Young

I will make this short ,as you are one poster I am not interested in getting into a debate with. Young lost to a 35 year old ,fat Ali ,he lost on ALL the Judges scorecards.
Young beat a 35 year old Lyle.
Young beat Foreman ,his biggest win, Foreman suffered heat prostration after he fight.
Norton was 34 when Young LOST to him.
Dunn was never more than European level and was kod in his next two fights after losing to Young his victors were the famous Ngozika Ekwelum,2-1-2, and Jose Urtain ,whom an ancient Henry Cooper brutally exposed.
I see nothing on Young's record to suggest he was great ,and having seen quite a few of his fights ,including from ringside I saw absolutely nothing to alter that opinion.
Young's record is 56 fights W 34 L 19 D2 .Good fighter? Yes . Great one ? NO!

 

The statements "Most avoided " and "best resumes" , are contradictory and incompatible.
Who avoided Young?
Young fought
Roman

Lyle x2
Garcia
Foreman

Ali
Cooney
Tubbs
Tucker
Dokes
Page
Shavers
Ballard
Gardner
Dunn
Sims
Ocasio x2
Good resume, against just about every body who held a top ten ranking at one time, unfortunately most of the crucial results were losses.
Nearly Man!

 

So do you consider Shavers a great HW? Seeing as you could make the same claims about him.
