    Rahman and McCall were contenders not journeymen so I see no problem.

    Vitali Klitschko. He lost to Lennox, the ham 'n egger getting stabbed with a fist. Now this isn't starched, but stabbed is close enough:lol:

    I was going to say WALDO but then spotted the all time great thing so I'll have to think again.

    This has nothing to do with the Klits.

    Tyson lost to McBride, Williams, and Douglas. Holyfield lost to numerous "bums" too.

    I wouldn't go that far unless I was trying to wind up the Klit-ites. I don't think they're bums they're just good fighters in a division of bums - hell they're the only ones that actually look like they train seriously it's no wonder they're dominant.

    What I do take exception to is the bull**** that is Lewis being starched twice in the early rounds by ham and eggers, it's a Zakman ******ed quote and it's bollocks. Lewis suffered a bad stoppage to McCall when on his feet and ready to continue - whether the stoppage was correct or not is irrelevent, if you're on your feet before 10 it's not 'starched'. Rahman (2 time champion, ham and egger?) legitimately KO'd Lewis in round 5 which is the mid-rounds, so to say he was starched in the early round by ham and eggers is factually incorrect on every level.

    I know it doesn't, you mentioning all time greats pretty much ruled them out.

    It's just a spinning exercise, these people like to bash Lewis but fail to mention that Holy lost a trilogy to fat boy Bowe, lost to Moorer who old man Foreman beat and then got spanked twice by Lewis who is the guy they're so desperate to discredit. Evander Holyfields resume is basically his 190 reign and beating up past his best Tyson, that's it. To think the Holyfield fans scoff at Lewis for beating Holy when he was supposedly past his best :patsch
