      He also defeated Jose Basora, Bert Lytell, Bob Satterfield, Tommy Yarosz, Tony Janiro, Robert Villemain, Laurent Dauthuille, George Costner, Bob Murphy, Tiberio Mitri, Joey DeJohn, Tommy Bell, Norman Hayes, Gene Hairston, etc.

      Going strictly by wins, LaMotta's middleweight record is one of the best.
      Those names don't mean a thing to this guy.....ffs he thinks Lamotta is comparable to Baldomir!

        The thread starter is a bit of an attention-seeker but he has displayed some knowledge of boxing history in the past.

        If he wants to compare Baldomir's record to LaMotta's then I'm willing to argue that point. There is no comparison really. Baldomir isn't a bum but he isn't a great fighter either, LaMotta was.

          Yeah, I mean no disrespect to Baldomir. He did amazingly well to become a world title and make the money he did, but saying Baldomir is a modern Lamotta or anything of that sort is nuts. But yeah, like you said maybe he is just attention seeking, wouldn't surprise me if he actually thought it though!

            Hey now that's not fair. For all we know the TS hates Mayweather and wants us all to think all Mayweather fans are ignorant towards everything.
