    This is the thread stopper.....
    Even the modern day UFC'S
    fighters Lee's size would
    find it almost impossible
    to close the distance to grapple Ali
    before they are knocked clean out.

    I thought Death Proof was his worst movie in all honesty.

    Are we sure Lee could beat Emanuel Steward in the latter's prime? Serious question.

    This doesent surprise me coming from someone who also thinks Loma is an ATG and agrees with Glass City Cobras that the referee starts counting at 1 or that none of Tysons opposition were in the HOF because your knowledge is limited and the only HOF your aware of is The IBHOF.
    Your pattern continues...

    The size of Bruce is a serious disadvantage, while his speed is better. I can't be sure if he would manage to avoid Ali's attacks and reach him with enough kicks to eventually damage his leg. Because the boxers really suck in their ability to take leg kicks and have zero answers to them.

    Foster was also a lot larger than Bruce Lee and was closer in size to Ali than Lee.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quentin_Tarantino#Filmography

    Four Rooms, True Romance, From dusk till Dawn, are not Tarantino films. But they are good movies. In "Four Rooms" Tarantino has only one room. Other rooms are Rodriguez and others.

    1. Pulp Fiction
    2. Reservoir Dogs
    3. Kill Bill
    4. Inglourious Basterds
    5. Django Unchained
    6. The Hateful Eight
    7. Jackie Brown
    8. Once Upon a Time in Hollywood
    9. Death Proof

    It's harder to rank Tarantino's movies than boxers, except that "Death Proof" is the worst; it is easy. I'm not so sure about the rest.

    Lee flops on his back and kicks Ail's knees out. Ali quits on his stool 9th round.

    From Dusk till Dawn was written by QT. True Romance is written by QT.
    Four Rooms is the only one that is border line considering QT partially wrote the screen play and Directed it.
    I see your point of view but imo its the same as when a Stephen King movie comes out, he doesent direct the movies but since He wrote them then technically they are still his movies.

    First off I never said Lomachenko is an ATG i'll literally quote my post right now to prove you wrong.

    "Who said he's an ATG ? i've never made that claim. I don't think he's an ATG but i think he's a very good fighter with one of the best resumes with only 20 professional fights. And his resume blows Muniga's resume out of the water."

    Oh if you want the link here it is https://www.boxingforum24.com/threads/lomachenko-is-he-a-h2h-beast-all-time.703953/page-6 page 6 for reference anymore lies you want to make up ?

    You claimed Douglas had a 13 second count i said both fighters had the exact same count, and the referee showed no favouritism to either Douglas or Tyson. The only difference is one fighter was coherent the other was totally out of it and in no condition to continue so tell me what's wrong in that statement ?

    So now your bringing up a debate that was how long ago now ? how petty are you ? because i disagreed with your opinion about a Quentin Tarantino movie ? Death Proof is widely considered one of Tarantino's worst movies, if you like it the most well that's your opinion no need to be childish about it.

    As for the Tyson thread ? here's the quote you made

    "Often his resume is ridiculed aswell but no fighter has 58 bouts and all of his opponents were HOF, ATG or P4P.

    So me and @spravedlivylev quoted you on that post as we were a bit baffled by it, because clearly not all of Tyson's opponents were HOF fighters, ATG's or P4P.

    Then you started quoting stuff like "Marvis Frazier BHOF Pennsylvania"

    When clearly when anyone is making a case for a fighter's resume were on about "International boxing hall of fame" you know where the actual great fighters are inducted ? And clearly fighters like Marvis Frazier are not worthy of that claim.

    Kurt Russell is better for me in "The Hateful Eight", and as for the car, I understand you, and I have nothing to complain about.

    I’d have Once Upon a Time no lower than third. But it’s subjective, like scoring a Mike McCallum fight.

    It wasn't just a car.. there was a 1970 Chevy Nova, 1969 Dodge Charger, 1972 Mustang Grande and a 1970 Challenger 440 Magnum.
