? That has absolutely nothing to do with being lazy atsch Another pointless stat from the most ridiculous blog Ive ever had the misfortune to read. Please stop posting this sort of nonsense here
Early 90's is very debatable. This is the top 5 from 1991-1992. Evander Holyfield Riddick Bowe Pre Prison Mike Tyson Young Lennox Lewis Razer Ruddock vs Current Wladimir Old Vitali Alexander Povetkin Kubrat Puluv David Haye I can make a case for Wladimir beating Evander (50-50 fight). But young Bowe would have destroyed this version of Vitali. Young Lewis would have knocked Povetkin's head off. A case could be made that David Haye or Puluv survives Ruddock though. 50-50 Pre Prison Tyson beats both easily.
Comparing Lewis and Tyson to other boxers to say a certain era is weaker/lazier/whatever is kind of unfair considering how good those two were. A young Tyson we all know was a monster, and a young Lewis was just as big as a monster and despite what his KO ratio might say, his right hand could change any fight into a KO victory.
A statistic is a statistic What premise are you trying to prove with these numbers? That modern HWs are more active than those in previous eras?
Except I don't write blogs, I'm too lazy. I "plagiarize", though I don't earn anything with it so it's ok. So you don't want to discuss the facts? I've given the facts, and you simply say "stupid".
You are using sources created by someone that was banned from these boards for being a ****. What kind of reaction do you expect?
I came on this board after the guy was banned, I didn't even know he posted here when I found the blog. Also he uses a good layout so it is very attractive to just copy the whole thing, he can also speak his mind better out than myself (imo). And most of the time I just cite the numbers which are facts and have nothing to do with him being a ****. So him being a **** is not a good excuse.
There is nothing to discuss, its just a long list of numbers without context or comment. I come on ESB to talk boxing, not to chat about how Joe Louis fought every 90.3 days. Guys like yourself & the author of this blog seem to mistake information with knowledge, as if using a calculator & boxrec are going to lead to a deeper understanding of the sport & its history. That blog & this thread are a waste of time, I'm outta here
