Hyperbole. The "most elite the world has ever seen" is typical hyperbole. This type of language is more typical of a carnival barker than someone who wants to make a point...and again, when has Elroy ever established to any level, what qualities technically speaking, make a fighter "the world's best ever seen." Search his posts in vain, for all one will find is jargon stating what one "should obviously know." and then a derogatory statement about those who don't subscribe to the trolled belief.
Empty because, we will never hear from Elroy any reasons for his opinions. he may say "sloppy" But nowhere in his posts ever is there any technical analysis as to why a fighter looks better or worse. This is because Elroy is incapable of doing this analysis because he does not understand the elements of boxing well enough to apply them to any situation.
Then Elroy inevitably makes it appear as though his contrarian views, unfounded as they are, are reasonable...he appeals to us to see him as some messenger for a truth that should be self evident! This alone shows how flawed this young boy is....How can something be self evident if it goes against conventional wisdom? In other words, most boxing analysis suggests Ali was a great fighter and it might be acceptable under some circumstances to say "just watch the guy and you will see it." But to call Ali a bum and tell us its self evident? shows a real lack of realistic thinking.
ALL Elroids posts follow this same formula. They never reveal any insight, they demand that something which is implausable, is self evident and they disrupt, cast aspersions, on others who disagree. This troll has gummed up this section and will be exposed.
