    You didn't call me on anything. You simply didn't understand my point or what I was saying. You just assumed.

    Within his first 22-24 fights did DM face any of the above names mentioned? And did he ko them let alone fight them?

    I posted this before, here it is again:

    Last Friday night Steward received a call from promoter [url]Bob Arum[/url], the president of Top Rank, who told him that the Hill-Moorer fight had been made. Arum told Steward that [url]HBO[/url] was close to buying the fight, and Arum hoped to hold it in March at [url]Caesars Palace[/url] in [url]Las Vegas[/url]. Hill would receive $750,000, up a half-million from his previous best purse.
    "We're only taking $500,000," says Steward, "just to get Hill in the ring. This is what the light heavyweight division needs: one super champion."

    [url]http://si.com/vault/article/magazine/MAG1136017/2/index.htm[/url]


    Of course the higher priority Hearns Super Fight got pushed to June and Moorer didn't want to wait on the winner, Stonewalker would be his last LWH fight and he would fighting as a HW in early 1991.

    "It's Hill or no one." said Steward of Moorer's preferred opponent: "We are no longer interested in fighting any of the other champions. If not Hill, Mike moves up to heavyweight."
    Between fights, Moorer carries 206 pounds. Steward expects him to emerge as a solid 218-pounder, easily. So much for the light heavyweight division. Certainly Moorer has heavyweight feet—size 16�. They go perfectly with his heavyweight punch

    Figured if Hill was one of your favorites, you would know all this.

    But he could have fought him before that and didn't, correct? And than he lost to Hearns, correct? If there was a signed contract how did he just get out of it? Educate me on this. And why no mention of steward talking about Moorer heavyweight punch? Is anyone claiming Kovalev to have a heavyweight punch? Just curious.

    Your first question doesn't make sense. Your second question doesn't apply. And your last sentence should earn you a temporary ban from EastSideBoxing for the pathetic attempt at sarcasm:lol:

    Because if you look DM's first 22 fights, he didn't look as destructive as Moorer did-imo.

    Moorer had like 10 or 11 WBO defenses and Kovalev has 3. You draw it up.

    No, you'll have to prove that.

    Who said a contract was signed? Educuate me on that. I said that Hill agreed to a fight. You in turn asked for contract stipulations and I showed you a purse split, date, and venue they agreed too in a proposed 1991 clash.

    Hill and Hearns were bickering for some time over negotiations throughout 1990. I thought you followed boxing then? They finally agreed in early 91 and the Moorer fight took a back seat.

    Hill Will Try to Win End of Great Chase : Boxing: The light-heavyweight champion will fight Hearns tonight, a bout that will end nearly a year of frustration. This is Hill's opportunity to join boxing's seven-digit payday club.

    I know. Me and Jab were around though. You're not telling us anything that we don't or didn't know.
