Im sorry Old school fighters are not automatically the best

GREAT troll post, oh IronDan's going to fall for it hook line and sinker.

It's a case of two things.

He's either;

Incredibly ******.

Or

Trolling.

Both cases are a very sad tale of events.

Good post. I think most do it as its impossible to prove otherwise.
To me a lot of the earlier footage I've seen just looks like two drunken old men ballroom dancing. (Not saying there wasn't some great fighters & great fights)

They're not automatically NOT the best.

Find me a current heavyweight as Fast, as coordinated, and as sharp as Ali.

Find me a current 120-160 pounder that can jump around weight classes and beat the best like henry armstrong. (well pacquiao is an exception)

Find me a fighter that can fight competitively and beat the top contenders for half a century like Duran

I could go on forever, they're not called ATG's for no reason.

I agree. Look at these drunks stumbling around.

Jake Lamotta would have been Gatti today so i guess if Gatti fought back then he would be considered a top ATG.................get real

Thank you. This is the second funniest post I've read on this board.

Lamotta was hot garbage,the definition of a face first brawler.and he beat the great SRR???

Larry, can you show me a quote of someone saying "Old school fighters are automatically the best(Because they're older)"

Make a change and give one of your threads some relevance.

Get off the juice Larry...

If a fighter 'clinched' like that today they would get so much stick its unreal and that is Mr Jeffries the Hercules that apparently would of beaten Lewis & Vitali Klitschko?

I tell you something, you'd never see Lewis or either brother get sparked clean out from a rabbit punch like that.
