    I have great respect for the 4 foot, 8 inch Neanderthal heavyweights. They would have dominated today's heavy's. Well ,the further back you go, the better a boxer is hey? Is that the way you want to play it?

    A lot of 'hardcore' boxing fans think it's cool and makes them knowledgeable to crap on the current generation and big-up the oldies. They don't realise that usually it is them who are the morons.

    Is this race related? Or is the fact that the boxers you dont rate just happen to be black and of course Mayweather who you have described as ruining the sport. Yet it's ok for the forum and social media to talk about Canelo and see him as genuinely good.

    Sorry but if somebody made a thread about 3 white boxers being overhyped but pointed out that a black boxer was legit. People would have something to say.

    Uh.... I straight up trashed AJ and Wilder. What race are they to you? Didn't rate May, he doesn't fit in the category of current top active boxers.

    I'm East Asian bro. I gain absolutely nothing by starting race wars, nor am I ever a part of 'black privilege" or "white privilege".

    Asians can be racist too. I didn't actually call you racist. I pointed out that the fact that the guys you have a problem with being overhyped are all black. Wilder, AJ and Spence. Add in Mayweather ruined boxing, in your eyes, and it does look like an agenda. So just a coincidence then, fair enough.

    Thanks for replying.

    Oh totally misread your post. Sorry, had a brutally long day at work and its 2am here. Thought you meant I was over rating black boxers, that's why I said I trashed Joshua and Wilder.

    Well, I like Crawford a lot. I get this feel that he is legit not scared of anyone nor duck. I find Gervonta very entertaining too, probably in the minority but I would take him as a slight favorite to Loma.

    Floyd, you're right though. I am a super fan of his skills but I dislike what he "did for the sport" so much haha

    I haven't seen Joshua do anything ,,,,yet,, that would make me think he'd beat a top 30 heavyweight. A win over an old Wladimir who had lost his previous fight and still almost ko'ed him is a wholly insufficient resume , as of now.

    Joshua beats a lot of top 30 heavyweights.

    Right off the bat. He's twice the size of some of them.

    I'll name one right now, Joe Frazier. Joshua knocks out Joe Frazier in Povetkin style fashion

    But he's not a world level boxer.

    But I'd love to hear how 5 feet 11 200lb cruiserweight-sized Frazier beats AJ.

    (Clue: He wouldn't)

    Nice trolling attempts, stay cynical, bitter, and miserable that the new generation are simply stronger.
