    I didn't, but since it's already written, it doesnt need to be written again.

    I like 50kg Asians as much as the next guy but your obsessing over Inoue on every thread is starting to worry.

    Oh, **** he is good! 20-1 with all 20 by knockout! BUT is he ranked? I don't see he's fought for a major title yet. If he has been ranked by thew WBA, WBC, WBO or IBF, then he'd still qualify per "Wiki: Boxing" guidelines.

    I'm also considering Charlie Zelenoff, believe it or not. He would not qualify as a boxer since he has never been ranked, fought for a major world title or been a champion (Maira Moneo and Steve Hearon for example, qualified on the basis that they were or are ranked by a major organization so that makes them pass "Wiki :boxing"....but Zelenoff would pass "Wiki: any bio" guidelines, based on the fact he has garnered celebrity status due to his foolishness.

    P4P Best Fighter on the Planet!

    I'm just raising awareness as very few are concerned about the lower weight classes. There should be far more threads on Inoue!

    :aaaaa:

    Instead the forum is obsessed with Fury, Joshua, and Clenelo.

    :(

    8 years ago, it was Pacquiao and Mayweather.....20 years ago, I'd been Tito, De La hoya, maybe Vargas....30 years ago, Holyfield, Bowe, Lewis, 40 years ago Michael Spinks, Holmes, Gomez, Leonard, Sanchez, 50 years ago, Ali, Frazier, Monzon...

    Things never change, obsession wise, I guess lol!

    From that poll I would say Miguel Montilla.
