    You people are still giving this racist moron DubbleChin this much attention? Lol clearly he is a racist white guy and his hero is the "White Hope" Gerry Cooney. You see him just type that after Cooney so called ripped by drugged out past his prime Young face off (when in reality he landed numerous flush punches and couldn't even hurt Young) That Young became a contender again? [url]http://boxrec.com/boxer/276[/url] Young never beat a top fighter again after he lost to Cooney.

    This moron keeps saying Cooney beat Norton and Lyle and then trying to justify they were still in their primes when we all know they were done. He keeps saying well Cooney all lost to Hall of Fames. Well the first 5 people who beat Stewart are Hall of Famers. If Cooney would of stuck around longer after Foreman put him to sleep he would fo been stopped more times as well.

    DubbleChin is such a pathetic loser he will keep lying to try to prove his point. He made up lies about who Jimmy Young beat. He lied and try to say Stewart took a dive against Tyson when in realit Stewart didn't take a dive.

    Besides beating 100 year old Norton and Lyle who did Cooney beat? Nobody. Well he beat a few fringe contenders but he wasn't anything special. Michael Moorer on the other hand actually became champion and beat far better people that Cooney could ever beat. Stop humoring DubbleChin....this is what he wants. He need attention. He just like these stupid Marciano or Tyson fans. Nobody how much you try to explain boxing to them they won't hear it. They are so in love with male boxers that they think their TV heroes are better than what they were. Cooney was a joke white hype job.

    Why play the race card.

    I know your ire is pointed at DubbleChin, but I can see an argument for choosing Cooney over Moorer.

    My favorite fighter was Matthew Saad Muhammad, but I feel Gerry Cooney had the right style and strengths to beat Michael Moorer prime for prime. Moorer was relatively immobile and had a weak chin. Cooney had the power and size to crack that chin and overpower Moorer.

    By having a longer, better jab. By destroying a shorter, slower, less busy guy who was flattened a dozen times in 35 heavyweight fights. Vaughn Bean didn't seem to have a problem "dealing" with Moorer's jab. Axel Shulz didn't have a problem dealing with his jab. Jesus. On top of that, Moorer was an average puncher at heavyweight (19 kos in 35 fights).

    Exactly. Saad Muhammad and Michael Spinks were my favorite light heavys. I was rooting for Spinks the night he fought Cooney. I laid out very clearly why I thought Cooney would beat Moorer. This guy couldn't do anything but cry racism.

    Don't waist your breath. He's just the 10th or so alias ... created a month or so ago ... of the regular troll on this board.

    He argues in favor of black fighters all the time... Yet you're accusing him of being a white racist who hates black fighters? LMAO you are a paranoid delusional nut. Anyone who disagrees with you is a white racist I guess.
