    You probably think Froch win over Taylor or Brook over Porter are better wins :rofl

    Thats because you've been watching boxing for about 5 minutes and know literally nothing about the sport :yep

    Williams was a 20-1 underdog going up against Tyson who at that stage had ony been beaten by Holyfield, Lewis and Douglas.

    Now run along Super Pansy and stop pretending like you know anythinng about this sport :deal

    Has to be Honeyghan beating Curry for me ( modern times ).

    Curry may have had weight issues, but no more so than previously, and he didn't simply run out of steam, he was beaten to the punch and outworked.

    Sorry thing about all this is what happened to Honeyghan afterwards, his personality coupled with mainstream exposure and money was always going to end in tears.

    i'd guessed that's what you meant (although we can look at records and accounts, and leonard is an atg), it just struck me that pointing out there's no footage of a century old fight is a funny thing to do.

    Complete moron. Your trying to tarnish Lloyds win over Curry as he was weigh drained, however your mentioning Hattons win over Urango. Urango wasn't even ranked in the top 5 at 140, but that's an amazing win? What a clown.

    For the first few rounds on Sat, I thought DeGale was looking good to enter the discussion.
