    I don’t do interrogations.

    Calm down, ask me again, and I may give you an answer.

    Wasn't an interrogation.

    You just don't want to answer simple questions and we both know why! :lol:

    They were also heavily shopworn and nowhere near an 85' reach or 70 lbs heavier.

    I mean you could just find your testicles and simply answer the question.

    You went on for dozens of pages about how Carnera was underrated and a better fighter than Bowe and Vitali but now all of a sudden you're quiet.

    If you reeeally want to know how I rate his boxing skills, you can ask me in a more respectful way. If you want to engage with me strictly on your terms, I'm good on all that.

    I don't have to do a damn thing :)

    There was nothing disrespectful in my first post when I asked you to rate his skill. You just didn't want to answer. :lol:

    I won't beg someone to be consistent after they went on and on for...LITERALLY years bigging up Carnera and saying modern super heavies were worse than him yet now you can't answer simple direct questions because your feelings are hurt.

    Not sure why this one needed 7 pages, but here we go.
    For those who won' t see it: Smart City Cobra set up a thread that @reznick could barely win. Without losing his consistency, the only path right now is that Carnera = Bowe/Vitali level, which of course gives Rocky zero chance of winning in any rational "common sense" reality.

    What shall he do? Throw the 7.2% into the trash can and go for his

    , or go with "Carnera equals Bowe level? Thats no easy task!

    Sneaky fellow that Smart City Cobra!

    So that was a different Reznick claiming Lennox and Vitali weren't anymore skilled than Carnera? :lol:

    True, but without Marciano Madness we'd have missed a lot of great threads. :)

    It is what it is. People talk about what they want to talk about. I don't think you reserve the right to decide what's interesting or not.
    I'm not taking a shot at you, by the way. Forums are here for people to talk about boxing, which they do.
    Just reply to threads you find interesting and ignore the rest.
