Now that's some funny ****e!one of the posters that is guilty of this is el jesus.......mother****er said pancho villa would'nt have beaten jimmy wilde if he was'nt past his prime...how the **** does he know when you cant even find a damn good vid to know which one is which or know the single detail of the bout.....
I mean I'm a Pancho Villa stan but I can only know much about him livin' it more than 80 years ago.
Back in the day it appeared that shot, glass jaw, cherry pick aren't in boxer's vocab, they're just true warriors, they fight everyone available even if it wasn't necessary.Comment

Well to his luck, historians (who fit into this thread's point) consider Jimmy Wilde as an ATG, but at their time Pancho was highly touted to beat him, twas Pac-Floyd in the 1920's, where it appeared that Pancho got the backing of american fans to beat Wilde.thank you again......but this time around this 20 somthing year old mother****er el judas has the audacity to make excuses for a guy in the world war 1 era when we cant even find a god damn video for that fight to know which one is which....lol....nsb is full of POSERS, i tell you!
Pancho did f*** him up good! And history was also kind enough for the first filipino champion!please wait 2 seconds for an uncompressed image, or press Ctrl+F5 for original quality page
Now to claim a fighter to be past prime/shot in the 1920s is downright dumb!Last edited by Tamis!; 06-15-2010, 11:53 PM.Comment

Yes, Villa did beat Wilde. But if you're going to talk about a fantasy match up of them prime for prime that certain things have to be looked at. We can't just say Villa wins because he beat a guy who was off for two years. That said, you don't need film to establish the facts of the era or the fighter.Comment

I appreciate the history, but Im not interested in anyone else's e-beefs, I got enough of my own. I got no problem with Baracuda or El J whether I disagree with them on certain things or not. Thanks for the heads up though.Comment

He has beef with me because i basically son him everytime he enters a thread.
See how he keeps my name in his mouth...
Now i dont know it all by any means, but i know enough to know when i post about something its somethin i have faith in in terms of knowledge.
I made that post about Wilde/Villa after reading a book on Wilde and the account of where his life was at when he fought Villa. Not to mention resume wise, one of Villas biggest wins is Wilde.
Either way, Baracuda comes across like a Sarah Palin to me, just sayin **** for the sake of saying it with empty stances and no substance at all with little to no argument other than red herrings and logical fallacies.
And as far as him not showing up on that radio show thing, that was ****in pathetic period, dude fronted on me like cinderella with the glass shoes on.
yep. He also prob thinks T-Rex was roaming around 4,000 yearsd ago

Don't confuse our differences about Floyd and Manny with lack of respect for you as a poster. We happen to strongly disagree on that, yes. But I respect your knowledge of the sport and ability to convey your thoughts on different topics.Comment

good points brah, it's funny if u see most of people's supposedly atg LIST, its a cheap imitation of bert's /the ring/ espn's top 100Unless you are like 90 years old I don't see how any of you could have a credible top 100 ATG fighters list, and the fact that so many of you seem to and try to pin point fighters on them is laughable.
The only way a younger person should or could have 1 of any merit is if maybe you watched, scored, and stringently analyzed 10 more of the most important fights that hundreds maybe over a thousand of the greatest fighters in boxing history have had.
The amount of fight you would have to watch should be at the very least tens of thousands of fights. Some of which are not even the easiest to come by and would take so much time to accurately go through that if you were young when you started you most likely would not be once you went through all of this data and pin pointed on a basis consisting of some recognizable criteria where someone should be exactly on a 100 greatest fighters list and who should be there at all.
I mean I could see Bert Sugar having one because he is a dinosaur and was born probably before boxing was invented so he has seen them all live and too.Comment
