    You're right. There's nothing wrong with admiring the past, but people go overboard. Competition wasn't more stacked back then. Don't be ridiculous.

    :lol:

    So top fighters of the time don't count because they're not high on your imaginary list of people they can't fight against?

    That is Wilfredo Vazquez, not Wilfredo Gomez! Big difference.

    That's what Fogger said too and I see no reason why either of you would lie about this so I guess I'm just going to have to resign myself to the fact that they're two different fighters who just share the same Christian name

    What is it about KOing 32 fighters in a row and 5x a year that makes it a drawback? Doesn't that just mean that Gomez is that good and dominant of a fighter? It's not like they were all scrubs, he beat former/future champions such as Alberto Davila, Dong-Kyun Yum, Royal Kobayashi, and of course decimating 52-0 Carlos Zarate.

    What literal holes?

    Aside from getting his eye socket cracked early in the Nonito fight and subsequently eating more 1-2 more bombs over 10 rounds due to compromised vision, when has Inoue taken punishment? Who has teed off on Inoue with ease? What fight was Inoue getting tagged clean regularly?

    Did Gomez take zero punches? Was he a defensive genius like Floyd, Whitaker, Pep, Toney?

    I'm going to let you think about your question for a little bit.

    It's like confusing Joe Louis and Joe Frazier.

    Not sure how he managed to do that.

    And Inoue fights guys worse than Gomez did, but he does it once a year. Gomez has 3 wins better than any of Inoue's.

    The literal holes in that he gets hit clean a lot.

    And by fighters far worse than Gomez.

    32 consecutive KOs fighting 5X a year. Sorry, competition sucked back then.

    Please provide examples of Inoue losing exchanges, getting teed off on, and taking punishment.

    Yes I'll let you dwell on the question that I've given to you so you can think about it and get back to me on that. 32-0, 32 KOs is impressive.32-0, 32 KOs along with an ATG win is an impressive feat.

    It's impressive, but the competition was weak and you're still overrating the fighters of the past to an insane degree.

    You can't say that the competition was weak when one of his wins is against 52-0 ATG BW Carlos Zarate.
