      Thats why this forum is dead,you cant even debate you take one small piece of a post and move on,but if i said two ton tony galento was underrated you would give me a fcking essay on why he was or wasnt.

        What fights of SRR have you seen? And what are those claims based on, can you elaborate on why they'd beat him?

        Which modern fighters would trash Pep and Leonard?

          Those claims are on watching him fight,dude looked ahead of his time anbd he was exactly that ahead of his time,i consider the new age of boxing to be mid 60s till now look how ali handled Liston and then look how frazier handled ali the sport continued to get better and better history buffs act like it stopped.

                Mark, the reason for your opinion is because they fought in the 'new age' of boxing thus they automatically win, no break down or explanation just more bull**** from you like usual. The Ali examples at the end are hilariously ****** and irrelevant. you outdo yourself everytime

                    Modern day boxers are standing on the shoulders of giants. Slating old school fighters for not being as strong, fit or technically proficient rather misses the point.

                    It's like claiming that Jesse Owens ain't **** 'cause he never ran as fast as Olusoji Fasuba or that Roger Bannister's a punk 'cause plenty of people have run a sub four minute mile.

                      Hagler would make Robinson his woman though.
