    Never did I say shot, all I said was dokes looked faster and sharper on film in the early 1980s than he did vs holyfield. he may have been drug free in 1989, but he still did not have the youth speed and sharp reflexes anymore. while better mentally in 1989, he was not better physically.


    seen it too many times, holyfield took huge huff and puffs alot during the fight, the knockdown in round 11 was more from exhaustion then anything

    strip all credibility? Dude If im not mistaken I think I was the one who uploaded the fight to youtube(the sam mcvea and bob baker and carmine vingo footage is all mine) to allow fans to see how destrutive ingos right hand was. Ive praised him many times on a huge technique with his right hand that we would do on film that allowed him to generate more energy into his punch, how tyson was the only other fighter to do it.



    Your the only who made a thread trying to claim roland lastarza as being at one point the greatest defensive heavyweight fighter of all time. are u kidding me? Its common knowledge jimmy fats Dangelo steered lastarza awat from every live dangerous top conteder of that era(Mostly black ones) so he could protect lastarza from losing so he could get his promised rematch title shot vs marciano. still lastarza managed to almost screw that up losing to clubfighter rocky jones, whom Im told on cyberboxing after flooring lastarza in the rematch was told to take it easy for the rest of the fight. it looked like a fix was in order. lastarza on film had good blocking skills high gaurd, but his head movement upperbody movement and footwork are nowhere near like say a zora folley or eddie machen on film.

    I'm on my summer holidays from uni; I'm working in my home town right now. How about you? How is college going?

    Given that you've demonstrated a great sense of humour in the past, I was really just going for an attempt at a witty aside. Given that I've read nearly every one of your posts on this site over the years, you can be sure I have a better grasp of your personality than most.

    Can you produce any newspaper records to back up your remarkable claim regarding this purported unrecorded bout?
