    Spencer Fearon said that Dillian Whyte is very similar to Larry Holmes. Do you agree with this boxing historian?

    Spence Fearon is one of the dumbest pundits in the game.

    Fearon DKSAB.

    Whyte's jab is awful. His punches are slaps.

    PPL say the dumbest things about winners right after a win.

    I like the one about BJS being the greatest MW in the history of boxing. Can't get more stupid than that. This one is close though.

    It’s hard to find a pundit more consistently wrong than Fearon. It’s statitcally impossible to be wrong about everything all of the time but somehow Fearon manages it.

    What a tool.

    The way you constructed your poll is very stupid. It suggests that being similarity in stylistic terms and being on different levels of class are mutually exclusive. "No, Holmes is better" is the only correct option to vote for but those are two completely separate issues (that a. Holmes and Whyte are nothing alike stylistically and b. Holmes is vastly superior)

    Holmes and White both boxed for a living so they're similar like that I suppose.

    They're both black. That's where the similarities end.

    Relax IB, it's not serious thread nor is it a serious poll. We discuss Spencer Faeron.
