    Yes you most definately can

    You watch the 2 boxers in question study the jab and the effect it has on the opponents

    You are quoting a lot which I like even though I've read these quotes before but can I have your opinion on this fantasy match up

    He was blinded by Fulton's left jab and he lost twice to Fulton because of it.

    Marciano, Sharkey, Baer,Schmeling, Farr ,Simon etc all said Louis's jab was murder.

    It has never been confirmed that it was a jab that blinded langford it could have been a hook, uppercut or a thumb for all we know

    Braddock was heavyweight from 1931 until he retired in 1938.

    He weighed:
    194lbs for Baer
    197lbs for Louis
    199.5lbs for Farr

    If he wasn't a heavyweight neither were.
    Sullivan
    Corbett
    Fitz
    Hart
    Burns
    Johnson
    Dempsey
    Tunney
    Schmeling
    Louis
    Charles
    Walcott
    Marciano
    Patterson
    Johansson
    Spinks
    That's 16 heavyweight champions that weren't either since all of them weighed under 200lbs when they won the title.
    You asked for our opinions , but when you didn't get the
    answers you wanted from everyone ,you spat your dummy out.
    End of.

    Sullivan was a 200 pound man

    The rest were really light heavies or cruisers

    I don't have a dummy

    It's immature of you to sprout rubbish like that because I refuse to agree with your incorrect points

    I'm just beginning a bottle of Chateau Neuf Du Pape actually , and since you are newbie here, I'll explain how it works.

    1.You make a statement.
    2. You get called on it to provide primary sourced proof of it .
    3.You provide it ,and your credibility is accepted.
    4.You fail to provide it, and your credibility takes a walk.

    Are we clear?

    I couldn't care less if some anonymous people i don't know on the Internet claim I have no credibility

    Enjoy your drink I no longer imbibe alcohol I'm getting up to go gym in the morning hoping to weigh 250 pounds by the end of the year

    You need to read the fight reports.

    I have a while ago

    A thumb can easily be disguised as a jab

    And Fulton was not facing the prime langford

    If you couldn't care less about our opinions why have you asked for them?:huh


    Your choice , just don't expect responses when you make any more unsupported statements and then excuse yourself for not providing proof of them by saying ,you don't want to spend Friday night reading about boxing when that is exactly what you are doing now!
    Maybe this isn't the place for you?

    Why not stay in the gym ,and keep looking in that mirror?

    Sullivan was under 200lbs when he won the title.
    You refuse to answer questions that directly impact on your unsupported statements.

    Did Langford magically change his style when he suddenly reached his 34th birthday ?
    Did he suddenly find he could no longer deal with jabs?

    I was in the gym earlier today

    I'm watching TV, talking with my family and posting on here simultaneously

    I'm not going looking for quotes I know you have already read

    Goodbye son I no longer wish to engage you

    Just so you know

    I pick Louis to beat ali

    Oh and it's quite obvious from your screename you're no fan of langford
