    Are you getting excited for Halloween? What costume did your mom buy you this year? I'm guessing you're a big Spiderman fan. My boys were. I bet you've got a cute outfit already picked out. Did you know they have a Spiderman webshooter that fires silly string? Ask your mom to get you that! But don't shoot it in the house. Of course judging by your posts maybe you're more of a Storm or Black Panther fan?

    I know COVID has put a damper on Trick or Treating - things are pretty dead here in Michigan. But maybe you'll be able to get outside and see your friends anyway, even if you can't go door to door. Whatever costume you pick, we know you'll look soooo cool! You've gotten to be such a big boy, Jab!

      That's his M.O. He makes ridiculous comments to get attention.

        Byrd is counting Moorer too. Big fan of both cuz they are Michigan boxers who I followed from early on in the case of Moorer & from amateur days for Byrd.

        Byrd for sure would have beaten Moorer head to head if they had fought.

        Byrd has more high level wins. Moorer gots the best win with giving Real Deal his 2nd L, but Byrd's Vitali W isn't THAT far beyond.

        Corrie Sanders is #3.

          Sanders has Wlad, that's it. And I wouldn't say it's a better scalp than Holyfield. He also never beat another top 10 fighter in his career. If he decided to play golf or rugby that has no bearing on the discussion. Just the facts Mr. Queen, just the facts.

            It's a fact. Do you care to challenge it with facts of your own? Oh I forgot, you've never let the facts get in the way of a good story, have you? 😄

              Blowing out Wlad is inferior to squeaking out a decision over Holyfield at his career low!?!?!?


              Do you see why no one takes you seriously?


              Tell us again, who did Dempsey duck? Who great him in his prime?

              What about the footage against McGovern leads you to believe Gans threw that fight?

              Who are the Light Heavyweight champions that ducked Langford?

              When did Gans or Langford sandbag it, or throw fights, to advance their careers?


              All these ridiculous claims, never any answers.

                I can accept that Byrd was more professional, consistent, and refined than Sanders. So he's a better from that perspective. But Sanders was the greater talent. There's a lot of fighters who'd best Byrd, or at least seriously test him. There's a lot of great fighters who'd suffer the same fate Wlad did against Sanders.

                  Wlad who had already lost to Purrity and would go on to get stopped by Brewster? Of course Holyfield was a better win. He had only lost to Bowe, who was FAR better than Wlad at those points of their careers. Wlad did improve until Manny Steward helped him perfect his hit and clinch style.

                    Wlad wasn't at his perfected peak, but he was still a very dangerous and a much better fighter than Holyfield. Holyfield wouldn't have hung on like Wlad did. Definitely not the version of Holyfield that Moorer beat.

                    I must admit, it's ridiculous we're even having to spell this out. It really speaks to the strength of your idiocy that you can force conversations like this.
