Willie Pep - would his fans please justify his placement in their top all time lists

Who are "all" of Pep's opponents that you have seen on film?

We know you've seen Saddler in a Pep fight we won and in the Pep fight he lost (LMFAO@that), but who else have you seen of Pep's opponents?

 

Describing Lacy as "dire" in the Calzaghe fight would be too complimentary to his performance.

Your judgement is clouded by the fact you're watching fights in black and white.

You describe the fighting style as "primitive" but you have absolutely no idea why - There hasn't been a single featherweight since Pep with his level of natural ability.

The only thing "primitive" is the cameras used to flim it.

You're just too narrow minded, ignorant and idiotic to see the obvious. Sorry to be rude, but that's simply the case, had to come out and say it. Your opinion is based solely on you not knowing anything about Pep or his career, but knowing all about Calzaghes.

A vast number of experts, and Peps peers, rate him as a top10 P4P'er. Noone will ever rate Calzaghe ahead of him except for pinhead nuthuggers like yourself.

 

Actually,

Having a working understanding of boxing history, and the ability to be subjective and unbiased can go a long way in a debate. Therefore, I really don't require the testmonies of Burt Sugar, Nat Fleischer or anyone else to convince me that a guy who won 229 fights over a near 30 year period was great. His career speaks for itself.

-Full stop-

The World population between 1945 and 1950, was around 2.5 billion. Christ, over 6 million Jews died in the war alone!!!

Dude seriously, find some other chat forum..

 

Obesity, is a WORLD epidemic, and one that wasn't typically a problem 60 years ago, due to the abscence of fast food establishements and mass produced levels of junk food. This whole theory of yours about Americans being a fat race, and how it reflects that boxing in the 40's was weak in the lighter divisions, has more holes in it than swiss cheese.
