    So if you are on the forum talking crap for 30 years you deserves respect just for the time you have been on the forum? What type of logic is it?.

    Foreman batters rocky, one round k.o. if they fought 100 times foreman would win 100 times, out of all fighters in history foreman would be the worst opponent for Rocky, rocky never fought anyone that could hit as hard as foreman or that could take a hit and still keep coming after you, also I believe Frazier actually had the better chin than Rocky.

    Exactly .
    but qawi showed that marciano Would beat prime foreman. Bummy davis a huge foreman fan was ring side when the gnomo 5'3 qawi in 1974 gave to young peak foreman everything he could handle so maybe marciano would improve it. Lmao

    You would have to favor Foreman, but it is wrong to think that Marciano could not do any better than Frazier.

    He is going to turn up in shape, and fully focused on the job at hand, which I don't think that Frazier really did.

    I also think that he was stronger than Frazier, despite being the lighter fighter, which would make him harder to contain.

    I totally disagree with rocky being stronger than Frazier in fact i think that the rereverse is truth but are you serious that marciano would be hard to contain for george?lol foreman would push the 185 pounder marciano and he would fly around the ring like a rag doll

    Well this idea you have that he "talks crap" isn't shared by most of the forum. Bummy's pretty well respected round here. You disagree and that's fine, it really is. But a new guy repeatedly calling a long-time member in good standing various names behind various curses really isn't acceptable on internet forums. You should know that.

    These are excellent points. As you say the Lyle fight could have been stopped in Ron’s favour a number of times proving George certainly was not invincible, showing there was another way to beat George.

    No. That's not true at all. Guys who don't contribute heavily get less rope than guys who do. Guys who are long-standing members get more rope than guys who are new.

    Look, we can talk about this all day. But we're not going to. Everything I said is the way things are; i hope you take it on board, if you don't fine.

    Nobody agrees with you about this; you are literally the only person on the forum who feels this way.

    And you're doing it again btw. You're doing it during a discussion in which i'm asking you not to do it.

    It depends upon what you mean. If you mean that a dictatorship is a place where hardly anyone is ever banned for any reason, then yes, I suppose it is.

    If you mean this placed is owned by another individual and you are a guest here and are expected to follow some very simple rules which are being explained to you delicately, then you are also right, it is.
