What is the evidence for it being a poor era? I don't think many contenders from earlier eras like Galento and LaStarza could have made it in Vitalis era.
Lastarza I would agree with, he was a very carefully managed fighter who didn't face any of the "iron" of the division,His best win is over a diminished Rex Layne an undeserving challenger. Vitali's ,defences against he following persuade me it was a poor era. WBO Mahone Sullivan Williams WBC Peter Gomez Arreola Johnson Sosnowski Briggs Chisora Charr
So you've popped up after being slaughtered on the "Awful Jab ".thread? Are you referring to the Byrd fight? It's very hard to know because your posts are 80 % gibberish even on a good day. Vitali tore his rotator cuff against Byrd ,he did not have a similar injury against Chisora. Between the 9th and 10thrds Vitali's trainer was trying to convince him to carry on. I watched the fight again less than 3 hours ago. You are right about the Williams fight being for the WBC and it being a defence for Peter in Vitali's comeback fight.I was wrong, I knew the facts but neglected to alter my list after checking CBZ,[I can't get BoxRec at the mo.]
Mendy you been caught lying again, you owe these people an apology. why do you do this when u must know u will be easily exposed in minutes? Do you hate yourself that much to deliberately try and make yourself look a dunce. STop being so cruel to yourself, pal.
In the time I have been here, 12 years now ,I have never known Mendoza admit to being wrong or to apologise for being so.
I made the list to illustrate how poor the contenders were,whether they were for the WBO or WBC title doesn't alter their quality does it? I have already conceded my error.re-read my post I've edited it. What possible motive could I have to lie about it? Enlighten us?
That is on HBO commutation. I know it was mentioned. Go to the 48:06 mark on the video you posted, and you will clearly here the interpreter say the injury happened in round three. FACT. Your only defense it to call them all liars, but we heard it clear as day in the post fight interview. END OF.
Dino, It was also mentioned on the video during round nine by the interpreter, so obviously people did hear about it in round nine. Your BS that no one heard about it from round 1-9 is WRONG. I won't waste anymore time on you. You can't fix stupid. You can only keep moving the goal post back so far.
End of the fact that you lied about him saying it in round 3 happened a few pages ago. Why are you still maintaining your pretence?
Did you listen to the post fight interview? Give it a try. Then let me know when they say the injury happened.
I'm listening to you claiming it was said in round 3. Dont you hear yourself saying it anymore? Vits quit against a midget and his best win was a then retired guy who couldnt earn a title shot when prime. Meanwhile almost every other HW champ in history beat number 1 contenders who earned their shots as one of their best wins. You have it the wrong way round - Vits is one of the worst!
Once again, it is clearly stated in the post fight interview. Do you admit or deny that? This you tube version has commercials in between the rounds. Live HBO covers the action in the corners. If you want to hide behind that so be it. My point was proven here.
