I really miss Tyson / Chavez / Hollyfield / Pernell / Lennox

[Tyson2k7]

Think of all the great fights they gave us damn!

New generation, new fighters.

I'm sure people during that time were saying I miss Duran/Leonard/Ali/Monzon/Hagler/Hearns

Theres Only One Ricky Hatton. Theres Only One Ricky Hatton!

tyson? samuel peter is just as good and exciting right?

chavez? isn't casa vs. campbell already scheduled? oh wait , he wants to fight retired featherweights for more money.

holyfield? toney's a cruiserweight fighting at heavy......real heavy.

pernell? floyd's just as skilled. let's just hope wwe doesn't schedule anymore "fights" for him.

lennox? we have wlad...... remember when we were complaining about lennox? me neither......

some similarities now to the old days......

true.

but...... from duran to chavez , leonard to whitaker , ali to tyson not too steep a dropoff. chavez to casamayor , leonard to judah , ali to wlad is very steep though......

Your comparing the wrong fighters there.

Chavez - Pacquiao - lighter weight guys tearing **** up and making bigtime noise

Leonard - Mayweather - yes I think Ray was better but Mayweather is doing his thing and has become a huge star.

Holyfield - David Haye - Both undisputed Cruiserweight champs, Haye is moving to Heavyweight this year.

Lennox - Wlad - People hated on Lennox all the time when he was champ, now they wish he was back.

i know...... but for a young guy i long for the good old days...... :-)

true about lennox though...... i wasn't a big fan of his but man...... valuev? ruiz? lyakhovich? briggs? maskaev? those guys would be nothing but journeymen in the 70's and they at one time or multiple times held a belt in this era? ......

I thought Valuev looked good in his last fight, but all those guys were never the true heavyweight champion of the world. Kind of like when Bruce Seldon,Frank Bruno,Tony Tubbs,Mike Weaver, James "bonecrusher" Smith,Pinklon Thomas, held portions of the heavyweight title.

We all long for the old days, but thats life unfortunately....

maybe i'm closed minded and ignorant but no matter how good nikolay gets i'll always look at him as don king 7'1 sideshow freak.

i think witherspoon beats everyone but wlad right now to be honest with you.
