    well you are just so dense to not get that i was sarcastic and i was using your logic

    you the one who said if you dont beat great fighters you dont become great, you dont consider mike tyson great, the other fighter holyfield fought were nto great. He lost to Lewis so that cant be considered great, this is all according to your logic!!!

    that's why you're so dense. You quote my humour and try to pass it for truth. I posted already that holyfield is top 10 or 15 greatest heavyweight of all time.

    so you're

    i took your quotes off because i felt sorry for you, but it's time to put them back up along with some fresh ones

      You still said it, no matter the way you used it in and the point that you were trying to make was crap anyway. I said that Tyson was not great becuase he didn't beat great fighters and he didn't. Where him and Evander differ is the fact that Holyfield is also known for being arguebally the greatest cruiserweight of all time and his success in the Olympics as well. He also has wins over a prime unbeaten Bowe, George Foreman, Tyson's conquer James Buster Douglas, Michael Moorer, and many other champions and he also fought the elite when he was in his prime, unlike Tyson. Holyfield is just the overall the more accomplished fighter that is tested against the greats of his era. Tyson not only lost to the greats of his era but he was dominated. Holfyield fought the greats when he was past his prime as well, but he put up close fights with them and actually showed something. Tyson folded like news paper when he was pushed back by guys that weren't intimidated by him.

      As for the signatures, i will take them out. The one that you had of me was not funny by any means. Its easy to get exile and prison mixed up when you are talking about Ali. I was typing very fast and weather you want to believe it or not, i had to give the computer up at that time. Where is anything funny at?

        I still said it? What is your point in regard to what i said? Someone makes random joke about something, and that's considered serious because they said it, right?

        The mistakes you made were genuine errors, and not just in regards to Ali.

        1) You've accused Tyson ducking Bowe, Lewis, Foreman, Mercer, Witherspoon, and Holyfield when it's been proven it's not true, by me and other posters. You dont wanna take my posts for truth, then listen to other posters then

        2) You said that Walcotts resume ****s on tyson. I said it before, and i will still say it again, Walcott was an advanced Hall of Fame journeyman who won a title, and went 2-2 with a former light heavyweight. He lost to the 2 greatest fighters of that time, twice each. He didnt dominate the division, but he had his moments, he cant be put up with names like Ali, robinson, and others. More knowledgeable posters like manchine, Yogi, and Scott agreed with me. What silencers claims doesnt mean much to me, he's another tyson hater, with many double standards

        3) You claim tyson wasnt great, he became the youngest heavyweight champ and cleaned out the division, pre prison. He fought everyone that was available. When he came out of can, yes, he was matched carefully. But why focus on what he did piost-prison?

        There's been a poll on this already, and everyone agreed tyson is a great fighter

        you're only hatred towards me is because i happen to like tyson and you dont. Regardless of how you wanna look at it, you've been proven wrong before so why downplay it?

        you have to face it, that whether you realize it or not, you've made some extreme, and absurd statements towards tyson.

        tyson was truly dominated once in his prime. By douglas, he was still fresh. After prison he lost to holyfied but he wasnt dominated, upp untill the middle it was a closer fight then what you make of it. Lennox beat him pretty bad and dominated him. You underate each and every one of his losses, and overate the fashion in which he lost.

          I chose Joe Calzaghe. It is impossible to beat him.

                  with Tunney it's understandable. But why pick Calzaghe who's only claim to fame was a win over immensely overatted jeff Lacy and old hopkins, and favor him against one of the greatest fighters in history. Joe's solid win that i give him credit for is Kessler.

                  I dont hate on calzaghe and think he's a good fighter, but i dont see him in there with a cat like moore.
