Who's prime is more overrated ?

[Poet682006]

you brought IQ etc into this first not me, you just are trying to change the subject because like always im right and you are wrong.

Prime Tyson flaws?-mental weakness...and B- Stamina, thats it, you say he didnt work the body enough...check out the tubbs and johnson fights....what was his famous combo? right hook to the body, right uppercut to the head.

headmovement A*
hand speed A*
power A

Fact- anyone who thinks joe louis was quicker than tyson knows nothing.

Fact- anyone who has a picture of a guy who shot himself over being unable to pay the taxman, whilst being a taxman and bragging about being one, makes them a hypocrit.

Fact- Poet is an armchair fight fan who has no friends apart from his computer.

I said an INTELLIGENT response: Not the hyperbolic paroxysms of an unhinged fan-boi. Try again Junior.

Oh, BTW, referring to me as a "taxman" is more proof of your lack of ability to comprehend text. I never said anything about being a tax collector: I said that for all you knew I was a government employee making 70 grand a year at taxpayers expense. I never made statement as to exactly what my occupation was, rather I merely pointed out the possibility. Besides, being the good Socialist (read: scum of the Earth) that you are you should LOVE a taxman

exactly...its OFFICIAL. also GJC check out the obesity rates, im pretty sure Poet is one of those obese percentage, as he sits in his armchair all day dreaming of being able to fight.

I would but I need to reboot (?) my internet thing and its all the way across the room and need to catch my breath.

I've not been here a long time ironalex but trust me if Poet was a taxman I'm sure we would have had a forum or two on it by now!

poet you are the one not coming up wit an intelligent response, you are the one soo embarrassed in what you do, yet you appear like you are some scientist working for nasa, you probably are a trolly pusher. You are the one whos like a little kid, always trying to get the last word in,you are an old man, TRYING to get the better of a teenager in an ONLINE argument, you are foolish, im done talking wit you.

They do have brains just brains that don't function like a human's. Also they couldn't read medical books for me the real problem is the lack of opposable thumbs.
My point is that whilst boxing does give you a perspective it does not mean that you have a better take on boxing than someone else who is a fan really.
You like football?
Alex Ferguson is far more knowledgable on football than Diego Maradona but there is no comparison on who was the better player. See my point?

You do realise that my 1000th landmark post on a boxing site was about household pets and football. Would someone warn me when I'm approaching my 2000th post to come up with something better?
Mind 2000 posts at my age might be ambitious, I don't buy green bananas anymore as I don't want to appear ****y at the green grocers

Don't let the junior bit get to you, he calls me junior and I'm 70!
You must keep going because he does like to get the last word in!!!

Call me crazy but I think Louis' handspeed was atleast comparable to Tyson's. We all know about his slowly shuffling feet but as Ali said, "Louis was fast from here on up" while pointing at his waist.

[ironalex]

dont forget Great A he had 6 to 8 oz gloves on, joe louis was never as quick as mike:

im not doubint louis had hand speed, but tyson was a league above in speed.
