      Well to be honest, the Klits have been dominating so good that most of the HWs can't shine.

            its a **** era in terms of overall talent, considering that, i think they both get a pass. they're clearly the best of the post lewis era. that's got to be enough.

                  Those two wins happened to be a against HOF Heavyweight in his prime which helps a little.

                  Plus, his little title defences have more to do with the fact he couldn't get a title shot for a long time.

                  His resume pre Title reign is much better or more vast then it is post.

                  Similar kind of thing to Jack Johnson.

                    I think the guerrillas are responsible for hanging Yamashita.

                    Probably kadyo knows who takes the credit of hanging yamashita.

                    LMAO @ the thai hooker

                      He was hanged by Bicolano freedom fighters in Baguio.

                      Grasshopper Carradine hanged himself by his dick.
