    Personally I (and I think PhillyPhan...?) thought it was the return of Farooq

    He has had 4 or 5 usernames, I had forgotten black Hercules mentioned in this thread. It’s guys like this that ruin the forum and it takes to long for them to get the boot.

    A good troll at least gets his facts correct. It's an art form and you are an insult to it.

    I have very high hopes that Usky might prove to be an old timer, who just happens to be currently active!

    I'll second that. This guy has been around for barely a month and the place is already starting to stink like a public toilet. Could well be Black Dorkules "undercover". That yellow raincoat and plastic nose had us all fooled! :rolleyes:

    I don't think Usyks angles will work better than Tunneys footwork and distance control.

    It is so hilarious how these old casual boxing fans still act like size doesn't matter in boxing. If that was the case why are there weight classes? If skill was more important than size then could Marvin Hagler beat Mike Tyson? What is even more hilarious is fighters from the 1920's weren't nearly as skilled as fighter are today. The least skilled guy today would be still light years more advanced then any guy from the 20s. Usyk is bigger by far and far more skilled. Gene Tunney would never make it out of the first round.

    proportional weight classes, they are not arithmetic in progression. I tihnk perhaps you've spent all your life not noticing this, and recently found it out but then decided to ignore it cos u think it might make you look less clever if u admit u only just realised you were wrong.

    its hilarious how some people still act like weight advantages are arithmetic and not proportionally related.

    I know, he doesn't present his views in the most diplomatic (for lack of a better word) way… but what exactly is his crime?
