Chris Byrd's marketability...

[Mr. Ryan]

Who knows...Ali is repsected and admired for fighting the best of his generation, McCline is a large man with below average skills, but he is ****ing huge. If Ali fought and beat McCline it proably would be a feat but a minor one because to many people prime Ali was unbeatable( Not me though)

You know, Michael Grant is also a big guy. If Ali beat Grant, would that mean something? Or is it not as important because McCline is bigger.

Because I'm a man of color. I can ice skate, though.

Dude, I had two black guys on my last team that I played for. Just becasue your colored doesn't mean you should look any differently at hockey. Yes it is a predominantly white game, but it doesn't exclude colored people, nor should you think it should.

Don't hate, just becasue you don't understand!

Grant doesn't have a chin, and Ali could punch, Byrd can't.

You do know I'm half white, right? I dunno, it just doesn't seem like something I can get involved in. I come from Hoboken/Jersey City, urban squallor. I played basketball, baseball, football, and of course boxing. Basketball and hockey season always coincided, and I opted for basketball for both viewing and playing choice.

Ali was never seen as a huge one shot puncher. All of his big LEGITIMATE kos came from attrition. Ali was not a big puncher.

yeah...I know what Anorak asked !

I'm trying to show it's kind of pointless to ask how a fighter would be if they possessed a very significant trait they didn't.

Question-

If Mike Tyson couldn't punch, would he have been as popular/marketable as he was ?

nah i get your point, but...whatever, not worth arguing about

There was no argument to begin with. You misunderstood my point. Now, you understand it. Just like that.
