    The words "total knowledge" and "back of a postage stamp" spring to mind.

    So is the above correct?


    Or this? Only you appear to be arguing with yourself.

    By sports science do you actually mean PED's? Because there are some dubious names on your list.

    Have you ever actually SEEN anyone who was born before 1966 fight?

    There were many talented boxers before but there are even more talented boxers today. How hard is this to understand?

    Among other things yes.

    I watched plenty of old boxing fights and they're mostly inferior to modern boxers. I can only laugh at those delusional nostalgics who think they're watching some sort of magic.

    Well here is a short list of fighters born before 1966, but AFTER WW2.

    Hagler
    Hearns
    Leonard
    Duran
    McCallum
    J.C.Chavez
    Lewis

    to name just a few.

    So tell me who exactly are these " more talented boxers today? "

    Secondly, you freely admit PED's are partly to do with today's fighters " talent "

    Again, tell me. Do you think this is admirable?

    I'm not saying they aren't talented they simply didn't crack my top 10 list.

    I listed them.

    PEDs are the reality of the sport. If those boxers from the early eras could use what modern guys can use many of them would.

    PEDs help you to develop your talent to the fullest extent. Again, it's the reality of the sport.

    Lol. After reading 1-10, I won't be reading 11-20 either. Except perhaps for belly laughs.

    this is an excellent point. peds being reality was over the top but a reasonable statement.

    if it wasn't for that i'd think you was trollin, because everything else you have written is so poorly informed it comes across as a joke, and your top ten is indefensible even by your own criteria. a criteria btw, that is clearly not giving you an 'atg - p4p' list, it is a 'since 1990 - my favorite fighters' list, nothing wrong with making that list but get the title right.

    Slavic is usually an excellent poster.

    I think that he's poking Classic with a stick to see what pops up.

    100 years from now, the Slavic Line will be seen as the greatest historic injustice of the sport's history. There will be an asterisk beside every champion pre-1996.
