    Exactly, it's often very taboo to compare current prospects/fighters to legends of the past because people will often assume you're implying they are as great or that they would beat that fighter when you're simply comparing some subset of attributes.

    All fighters do something wrong. All of them. There isn't a single fighter on this planet past or present from Joe Louis to Salvador Sanchez to Floyd Mayweather who does it all right. The greats adjust. To say Usyk does some things better than Ali is dubious. He doesn't deserve that compliment yet.

    Idk man, Wlad couldn't really catch and put Haye away, So I don't think Wlad could really match Ali's speed. Wlad always had trouble with smaller, faster guys that can move, I really don't see how Wlad would knock him out

    Cooper caught Ali flush with a left hook and had him down in their first fight...anything can happen...!!!

    Don't be mad bro, we all were new to the sport at one point in time, just because you caught up to it two years ago doesn't make you a bad person :deal:yep

    If you really think someone can learn enough to fool people like IntentionalButt, kirk and Rumsfeld and write long ass articles and know all of the s*** that I know in two years, you're dumber than I thought you were.

    Ali would not only beat Klitschko but he'd KO him, most likely by mid rounds, different class as far as I'm concerned.

    It's never really about boxing fundamentals or ****ysis of styles or anything, it's more so just a bunch of YouTube videos or bios you throw up.

    Not saying your not a fan of the sport, just saying you're a new one :lol:

    Because I don't care about discussing stuff like that and I never have, it gives me a headache arguing with people about **** over and over again, what's the point they won't agree with you on anything anyway, its not that I don't know its I just have no interest in talking about it, because the majority of readers on here are casual fans who don't know any of the references anyway, and make no mistake there are 1000's of people who read these forums who don't post and I realize that and most of you don't, so I decided to try to do as many threads on guys that I thought deserved attention in the most straight forward reader friendly hyping up carnival barker way possible, I'm trying to promote the guys you and I like to the laymen reading these forums. People don't like long dull complicated dramas they like big bombastic summer blockbusters that entertain them, so that's what I try to do in thread format and I can tell you right now my threads have reached a hell of a lot more people and spread the word of guys like Usyk than you or Vysotsky or anybody else sitting on here talking about what classes so and so fought at when they were amateurs in 2002 ever could.

    Usyk was mentioned many times in the Olympics thread and still for two years later no one cared or knew who he was, yet now because of my threads on him and for the record he was the first one I did there's a hell of a lot more people who care at least on here. And for the record I touch on style in one of my Usyk and Khytrov threads but I don't want to bore anyone, because to most people they find that stuff dull.

    I joined in 2013 November 23nd because that was the day this forum made people have to register to follow along on the RBR's and I wanted to follow along for Pacquiao-Rios, because I didn't care enough to buy the PPV and Froch-Groves earlier in the day and IB can confirm that was the day I joined as can my profile page. I've been a fan since I was a kid Mike Tyson was the reason and why don't you find and read my Tyson thread and see if what I wrote isn't from a passionate child's perspective. Now get off of my ass, and for the record when did you start watching the sport?

    Side note Herzegovac you mocked Serge and I the other day about astrology, does this sound familiar.

    "Aries are typically big picture people and tend to dislike details.":deal
    In almost every trait listing of Aries imaginable.
