    I went to highschool after 8th grade, we only have 8th grades of elementary school then we go to to specialized highschool based on our grades we can choose school.
    It lasts 4 years then if have again good grades we can go to university or college.

    Floyd Patterson never beat anyone good except few good contenders, he never beat someone like Ali, Liston, Frazier or Foreman.
    He was difficult that much that was the hw that got floored most times in the boxing history and that Ingemar KOed him.
    Williams was no one, a slugger with one hand and no chin who was knocked every time he fought someone good, even LHW Satterfield beat the crap out of him.

    You mean despite cheating and quitting on his stool twice?
    Despite blinding his opponent and claim it was not on purpose?
    Despite so much excuses for Sonny have shoulder injury but quit unlike Frazier and Patterson who fought even more injured?

    Guys that are so long in boxing and have that bad record are called bums and c level fighters.
    They are not even good joruneymans at best.

    Professional that was 30 pounds lighter and lost a half of his fights until he fought Liston.
    He was just a bum and your hero lost against that same bum.
    Also if he had determination why he quit twice on his stool, blinded his opponents and put 100000 excuses when lost a fight by quitting?

    Repeating the same garbage time and time again does not validate it.

    As I said in reply to another one of your pathetically repetive post----repeating the same garbage time and time does not validate it.
    Take your time and read this,and try to absorb.

    So according to you any man who is brave enough to risk his life in the ring deserves to be called a ' bum '
    unless he is a world-class contender.For pity's sake......

    You mean providing sources like what Ali and other fighters said are not valid because it hurts your hero legacy?
