what did you think of virgil hill

[THE REAL NINJA]

how do you rate him ? he had a long streak as one if not the best lite heavyweights around . he was never KO'd until that amazing shot from roy jones when he was past his prime . fought most if not all of the best fighters in the division . so what do you think is he hall of fame ...was he so so ...good but not great... what

just bumping to see if my sig works

Never seen him fight, except against Jones..

but Hearns beat him in 1991?
Good job Hearns

[marvdave]

overrated and protected

Looked a million bucks against an ancient Donnie Lalonde a few years back.

I dunno whether he's overrated or not, but he'll make the hall of fame. Don't forget, he knocked out Fabrice Tiozzo after the loss to Jones for a cruiser belt. Old men aren't supposed to do that kinda thing. When they do, they get into Canastota.

hmm

Hmm...Hill has several pretty good wins. Del Valle, Tiozzo (twice), Maske, Czyz...He annhilated Tiozzo in his hometown who was 42-1 at the time, and got a decision over highly regarded 30-0 Henry Maske IN Germany.

Hill lost a debatable decision to Dariusz M. and was stopped on one shot by Roy Jones. He also lost to Thomas Hearns in 1991 mainly out of inexperience. He was very old when he lost to Mormeck, and even then Mormeck barely beat him in the rematch. Hill is obviously a hall of famer.

I think butterfingers was overrated.Snickers KO'd him with one punch!

Maske was an old man when he fought Hill. And Virgil beat him via SD in a fight that could've gone both ways. Henry had announced retirement before the fight and just was past his prime, didn't have the same speed and it showed throughout the whole fight.

And how the **** was his loss to Dariusz controversial. Have you seen the fight? Though 110-118 was way off the other scores were quite reasonable.

You're not trying to boost Hills record in order to make your boy Roy look better, huh?

Virgil Hill was the American version of Sven Ottke or Joe Calzaghe-more like Ottke because Joe is far to exciting to watch where as Virgil was not.
