KO 4? Hell, it'd be Wlad KO 1 Joe Louis. Jab - right, jab right and repeat until he's out within the 3 minute round, my guess is that it won't take more than a few. Louis is especially open when he dips his head down.
That fight was hilarious. Typical for the time. I'm not sure there is a single fighter around today as tactically inept as Conn.
You're a far better troll than 2smart4u. Your material is generally funny and sometimes has large nuggets of truth.
atsch Sorry, been busy and have only been popping in here! I'll get on it asap. I have to find the approproate Hearns video for comparison...
He's not a troll CT, he's a very good poster who just has his own take. Everyone is is different and CHJ is an integral part of ESB for a variety of reasons.
I will always maintain everything I say is gospel truth. (except a few spoof articles and a "Teenage Joe Calzaghe beats Mayweather at WW" thread)
Well, that's obvious to most. He has a very good overall message though and that is how underrated amazing talents and skilled fighters go underlooked because of the sport's corruption and recently how older guys like Hopkins and Wright hog the P4P rankings and the 'resume' portion, where hungry young talents can't even secure good fights to get them where they deserve to be. This is a good stance, I agree with it. He just uses Calzaghe as an example of a guy who was overlooked because Calzaghe is his favourite.
Even if I got the weight wrong ( and according to my old mags I didnt ) he would still be a middle by todays standards !:hi: And i hope your not using REC as a source od gospel truth !
It's not an insult, it's the truth. China_Hand_Joe often posts to get a reaction--to "troll" for want of a better word. The difference is that his more outrageous statements aren't supposed to be taken seriously.
Wlad Klitschko could defently beat Joe Louis head to head, but he dose not have better boxing skills and is not higher p4p than Louis.
