    Funnily enough I've never been able to find the thread where he made his debut and allegedly did this.

    I've never accepted your explanation and only you in the entire history of this forum could believe that to be true.

    Let me see the thread where you made your debut, then we can sort out this miscarriage of justice.

    Doesn't mean he's one of my favourite boxers. Just means if there's a beast who can fight on the inside, he has chance of knocking out a 200 pound Jersey Joe.

    These are NOT my ten best. They are my ten "favorite" not necessarily in order:

    Dempsey (sorry, Steve)
    Louis
    Fitzsimmons
    Langford
    Archie Moore
    Jimmy Young
    Frazier
    Schmeling
    Patterson
    Jack Johnson (sorry Mendoza)

    I'll have to do further research but your case (though I hate to admit it) is under consideration.
