    Thank you.

    I’m glad you admitted that you were wrong. And since you were, I fail to see where the BS was that needed to be exposed?

    You asked who thought Sonny lost to Summerlin as if it was some run away win. It wasn’t. I answered by saying one of the officials who scored the fight had Summerlin winning.

    You said Summerlin was rated. You admit he wasn’t.

    Where was the BS?

    1.Marciano fought Lowry with 21 fights under his belt.
    2.Lowry was never within lightyears of being a ranked fighter.
    3.Some thought Lowry was robbed.
    4.Lowry was a light heavy journeyman .
    5.Reports say Lowry had Marciano on the verge of a stoppage at one point.
    6.You compared this fight with Liston fighting Summerlin in his 6th and 7th fights.BS
    7.Summerlin was a ranked heavyweight 5 months after the fought Liston.
    8.At any stage of their 2 fights did Summerlin have the green Liston in trouble?
    9.Liston knocked Whitehurst clean out of the ring in their second fight only the final bell ringing saved Whitehurst from a ko as the film clearly shows .
    10.Foreman green and inexperienced faced a top ten ranked opponent in Peralta and beat him clearly.
    11.In over 100 fights Peralta was only stopped 3 times,once by Mina when he was a lhvy once by Pastrano on a cut eye, and once in their 2nd fight by Foreman.
    12 .To compare Marciano struggling with Lowry a trial horse with a 50/50 record to Liston v Summerlin and Foreman with Peralta is BS!
