Tszyu did NOT quit on his stool.. The desicion was purely based on the examination via Lewis, with response to numerous topical questions directed at Tszyu, that enough had been enough for Kostya on the night. Fortunately, Marciano didnt have the physical capacity to endure a long term H/W career. Late start...Early finish..
Mate, with you in my corner, who needs ropes?? I would never deliberately discredit any of the great fighters... just offering our own view point is all we do...I love the conjecture...arguement... knowledge gained.. relative understandings.. passionate frame working.. All worth the time posting any comments.
Not really. He would've ****ed up both Tyson and Foreman. We can debate on that one. Louis? Dude, he beat the **** outta Louis....and don't give me that "well Louis was ancient at the time" nonsense. Louis thought he COULD beat Rocky and look what happened. Rocky had to punch him out of the ropes for him to retire for good. Unlike Rocky, he knew better. Man, what a champ Rocky is to fuel such anger.
I just gotta say, there's a lotta **** going on here, and it's not how the classic forum operates, this is like the general forum's style of debating has been introduced here, it's not good. There's loads of disrepecting going on, and nonsense, no structured arguments, just plenty of ranting. Sorry for the harsh words, but this isn't how the classic is,
Well on the second page of this thread, I was just being a clown with the "3 words" topic. I didn't agree with someones opinion on Kostya Tszyu and so I threw a tasteless harmless lil taunt that even related to the 3 words thing which was: Quit, on, Stool. Now with that said, everyone already knows Kostya is a great fighter. I think he's an ATG. There is no denying that. So I don't see why these people are getting so butt-hurt over a joke. I also like to boast over Marciano being the best...you can try to prove me wrong, or of course laugh at me like many others have.
Why the hell should someone laugh at you??.. This forum is our stage.. we are mere puppets conveying our views.. The more willing your opinion, the more contentious the arguement... the more will be learned.. WE have the same respect regarding different fighters..... at different levels...... dont throw the towel in champ.... you are getting a few early shots in... keep `em coming.
And you have totally ignored the post i made immediately after the one you have just commented on, and might i add that i made that post BEFORE you had a chance to comment on the first post with the 'clown' comment. Basically, you're joking when it suits you but i'm not (alos when it suits you).
Tyson....... tenacious, relentless, merciless.. Golota ...... Gifted, self doubting. Bowe........ Talent, lazy, tough. Lewis....... Regal, heavyweight genius. Mayorga.. Arrogant, calculated, overrated. Guinn...... Promising, dissapointing, puzzle. Michael Grant.. Humble, articulate, limited. Holyfield.... Self belief, warrior. James Toney... smooth, experienced, natural. Marvin...... No frills, tough.
Some various ones that leap to mind: Ali: Unique, speed, heart Robinson: Fast, strong, greatest. Louis: Accurate, strong, determined Hagler: Adaptable, determined, tough. Duran: Fast, strong, vicious. Chavez: Relentless, aggressive, unflappable Whitaker: Slippery, sly, meanstreak. (Ok, so that's a cheat. So sue me ). Holyfield: Courage, heart, belief. Tyson: Fast, strong, troubled. Arguello: Precise, explosive strength.
