    As far as winning is concerned, his performance was excellent.

    As far as entertainment is concerned, it was awful.

    Does this makes sence?

    And pardon my poor english, it's not my mother language.

    thats right keep holding onto Purrity and Sanders.

    After this many years and number of fights since then, you go back that far to those fights to try and prove a point. How sad :oops: :oops:

    Almost as sad as I was watching those two shameful fights v Ibragimov and Thompson. I was sad thinking back to the days of Lewis, Holyfield, Bowe and Tyson, and remembering what heavyweight boxing used to be like from the mid 80s to the early 00s.

    you mean the Bowe that defended his belt against Ferguson and Dokes? :lol::lol::lol::lol:

    the same Bowe that threw the WBC belt in the trash than fight Lennox Lewis?

    THAT my friend was shameful.

    :lol: :lol: :lol:

    You have to be a youtuber if you mentioned Bowe and Tyson as examples of high quality boxing.

    Lewis and Holyfield were the only two to fight everyone and even those two have Csyz's and Fortune's on their resumes.

    Why...???


    Youtube didn't even exist when Tyson was the biggest thing in boxing...so obviously anyone who misses him must be a "youtuber."
    :patsch

    good win, however nothing impressive in the long term view ... Ibragimov fight was more important.

    Thompson was exactly what I thought he was - a slightly better version of Ray Austin, old and mediocre.

    Actually Thompson is miles above Ray Austin as noted by his performances against Ray Austin's performances.

    He's better than Ray Austin, but not "miles" better. No way.:-(
