Leapai vs Wepner

[BennyST]

Oh, by the way, if your sole crappy argument is that Wepner gave Ali a tough fight, while Leapai got his ass kicked, and that totally proves that Wlad is superior in every way....well, we probably shouldn't bring up Ross Purrity shall we?

We probably also shouldn't bring up getting knocked out by Brewster, just in case you bring up something like 'not in his prime yet'.

Or maybe getting knocked down three times and nearly losing to Sam Peter. What about getting knocked out in two rounds to a golfer?

Before you go bringing up the tired, banal, incredibly dull retort of 'hater' I'm not hating on Wlad. Quite the contrary in fact. I am, however, hating on you and your ****ty argument and bias. If you had used this argument in favour of Ali, I'd say precisely the same thing.

Wlad is a great fighter. It's a real pity he is let down by so many of his fans.

I don't really consider myself a fan of Wladimir so much as someone who likes to laugh at the magical status given to "past eras" for underlying political reasons (that the parrot usually isn't even aware of).

If anything I find Wladimir rather boring ala May/Hop/etc. Would he humiliate most HWs in history? Yes, but I'd still rather watch Ruslan & Matthyse lose than those guys win. His brother was more entertaining too.

Wepner easy................wtf

come on man Leapi was just terrible,i mean terrible..no need o try to justify the fight it was a mandatory and it is over,but stop trying to make it more then it was..the guy is grade f ****

[Weltschmerz]

This really isn't deserving of an answer it's that sad, but I'll give it to you anyway because it's so obvious where you're going with this, what your little agenda is and the bias you hold. Honestly, you should be ashamed of yourself.

Here is your answer though:

Foreman, Frazier, Moore, Patterson, Norton, Liston, Foster.

That's not just the good fighters and champions Ali beat. That's just the HOFers Ali beat.

Now, let me explain something important to you. Read the following closely.

If Wlad had fought a long career in the greatest heavyweight division ever, he could have a ****ty stay busy fight or two, in between fighting a prime Joe Frazier, prime George Foreman then straight after Wepner, Ron Lyle, Joe Bugner and Joe Frazier again, but when your whole career is full of Wepners and Leapais then it's not deserving of such a comparison and your whole point is made obsolete.

It's funny that you mention Wepner actually. While he was just a stay busy fight, if you go just a few fights either side of Wepner, you have an entire career of opponents combined thats better than what Wlad has had the misfortune of having to face. It's a pity he wasn't in another era, but trying to compare the two on this weak basis is really quite embarrassing and pitiful.

All of which Wladimir would have beaten with ease. Hope you read it closely.

When you criticize the 3rd greatest cruiserweight of all time you are playing with a hornets nest because he's even more of a political/cultural figure than a boxing figure.

Yea, I don't care who I make mad, It's just a little food for thought for the haters to chew on. Maybe I will enlighten somebody.

The only one who needs enlightening here is you bro.

dude, you are a die hard fan of wlad...........wlad would get stopped by journeymen contenders & top rated stars (past heavyweights) the first guy that gets in wlads grill, makes him work, & lands repeatedly on his body & head (for 15 rounds) wlad folds...........when we're talking past heavyweights even bums at times would put up spirited efforts. wlad doesn't like pressure, nore does he deal with being hit good. (these guys fought in a high pace grueling way) wlad doesn't have the chin nore heart to humiliate most HWs in history.........


WTF.

You put more thought into that bull**** post than you should have a55hole.

I don't have some underlying agenda. It's clearly put in the thread itself.

Ali was a depleted shell at 38 years old getting his head batted around by Holmes.

My point is that while Ali was allowed to take his tuneup fight in which was competitive against a lesser fighter, which I may add was not a mandatory and get a pass because of who he was while Wladimir gets **** on for facing not only his mandatory, but a lot better fighter than Wepner was.

The poll was straight forward and should have been taken as such.

Don't get all cry baby and talk **** to me in my thread or I'll put your b*tch a55 on ignore.

Man Benny just ass ****ed you in your own thread..your entire comeback was already addressed by him....

So he would beat those guys easily??? and you base that on what he has lost to far inferior fighters
