    There was something undeniably spooky about Sam Langford. That stocky, long-armed frame. The fact he could take you out on the front or back foot. The fact he brought about your destruction in an inevitable kind of way, stalking you with a low guard.

    I wouldn't step in the ring with any professional fighter. even the worst of tomato cans have more ring savvy than someone like myself who has never done more than casual sparring with head gear on in the safety of a gym with an instructor looking on.

    Any non boxer, an armchair keyboard boxing enthusiast would be positively insane to want to get in the ring with any of them.....never mind the bonafide badasses of ring history.

    Exactly.

    I think even this guy might even school me in a real sanctioned boxing match...

    If I was in the ring with any ATG, they just wouldn't be able to land a glove on me, they would be slipping over in the sh it.

    he'd nullify my entire ****nal, and just pick me apart and probably knock me out with a hook on the chin after timing a jab. kell brook reminds me of johnson
