    Being from the U.S., haven't seen much of Maske, S. What distinguishes him as ol' school?

    Charley Burley!

    And in general, fighters that are willing to lace them up and step into the ring against the best of them. And im not even basing this on skill.

    He certainly does. Out of all the fighters active today, he represents a old school fighter more than anyone else for me.


    Going back in time, most of the Black Murderers' Row represent what a good old school fighter should be about. There's plenty of more of course, but some of those guys just really stand out for me.

    Are you gonna fall for everyone I lay out there?

    Nothing really old-school about Maske. He was far better than most give him credit for being, but very much a Euro, Oly-styled gentleman fighter.

    Why bother to include Maske, S?

    Since you obviously do not follow my posts with rapt attention, let me clue you in.

    I include Maske in every list of fighters, no matter what the question or context.
