Willie Pep deserved better...

It became entertainment more than anything posts and posts ago. Yeah, I'm putting in a tad more effort, and?. But you have not proven yourself to be a man to hold his word. Thats five replies now.

Hows the Suede Collection sounding, shite?.

Your the one keeping it going. I think its both of us. Thats one thing we can agree on I'm sure.

Go on, make it six.

 

I've got to correct you before it drives me mad. I'm very particular when it comes to grammar.

You are is not your. It's you're.

Phew.

 

My grammar aint the worst, not up to book writing standards right enough. You got a higher English degree?. Without being sarcastic, cheers man. Thats noted. Your not a bad lad afterall by correcting my grammar.

Now my posts will have a bit more polish on them regarding presenatation.

 

Robbi ,Mannassa is a wanker ,Ive footage of him masturbating over an Ike Williams video,while strewn about him are countless empty lager tins,a sad ending for a beardless boy,be gentle with him.No more harrasment, you could drive him over the edge,he might end up watching fights from the 80s!

 

No less a scribe than WC Heinz rated Pep the best pure boxer he,d seen ,maybe Driscoll could match him but Pep really was a Will O the Wisp,he must be top 10 probably top 5,imo.

 

The big knock on Guglielmo Papaleo is that his resume isn't as deep as other greats. I myself have severely criticized Marcel Cerdan for exactly that.

Frankly, there are names on that resume of Pep's -but time has rendered them forgotten like script on the sandy shore. However, the fact that he had 242 career fights separates him from his contemporaries who finish careers with 200 less fights and get all the wee ones jumping up and down. His longevity mitigates arguments there. His comeback from a life-threatening plane crash says something as well. His defeat of Saddler is miraculous -and is up there among the truly great boxing exhibitions in my book. What has Whitaker done that is comparable to that?

Finally, there is the level of skill. His combination of skill and talent is second to none. He had an understanding of how to read opponents, how to time and place shots, get hit rarely, find an effortless rythym, and remain both mobile and efficient, that has never been repeated over such a stretch in an era where fighters were fighters and politicians never put gloves on.

Willie Pep was pugilism's Rembrandt making masterpieces on canvas.

Top 3 all-time, ever.

 

I've got a hell of a lot of fights from the '80s at it goes.

 

And lager cans!

 

Indeed, nearly all of them empty as well. Yet I can still type with grammatical perfection.

Funny, that.

 

Yeah, he sure has. Well, he must have a few empty tinnies.

He was the one who said he was an alcoholic. Manasaa drinks every single day of the week. Now its suddenly changed, he's not an alchy. Wonder why..................................

 

You don't need to get drunk, thus have scattered senses and be falling around, to be an alcoholic.

 

Jose Basora, and Henry Brimm both drew with SRR prior to the Turpin fight.

 

Alright, I'll admit, I'm an alcoholic.

 

Robbi I dont allways agree with Manassa ,in fact hardly ever ,I sometimes find him a little too self opionionated,but drunk or sober,he makes more sense than most posters on here,and ,joking aside ,if he told you something in confidence ,perhaps you should have kept that to yourself?

 

Not a good idea to take the moral high ground when you've already had two stabs at me yourself.
