Yeah, it's a shame, I definitely think LM would be perceived somewhat differently if he received the Ws he deserved in those bouts, he shoud've pushed harder for the KO. A Crawford win via would do wonders for his reputation even if Crawford is perhaps not really all he's cracked up to be, he's being pushed as something special.
the judah fight was close, i think the KD should have sealed the deal in lucas favor, but it didn't. the alexander bout was a robbery, plain and simple.

Originally posted by Weebler I View PostHappy to Larry, I posed the question as to how they're looked upon and what they need to do. As to their best wins, it goes beyond one win to whole body of work. The standards for entry really aren't what some portray them to be though, for example, the notion of Judah getting in while one I disagree with wouldn't wholly shock me if it occurred.
List Zab's best wins...Matthysse would probably be top 5 in that list and he didn't even deserve the decision in that one.

Originally posted by HanzGruber View PostLucas isn't even a world champ and u want him in the HOF? Zab was lineal and 2x champ cmon now. You could argue Lucas should be champ from the lamont fight but he hasn't done shlt

Originally posted by daggum View Posthe did win and while fighting with one eye and while being fouled constantly. you would see the same thing if you judged it fairly. which 7 rounds did garcia win? i'll wait.
But he lost and it's not even debatable. You must've been one of the people who banged on about how Matthysse was going to end Garcia's life before the fight and are now just bravely going down with the ship.

Originally posted by Weebler I View PostI remember there were a couple threads going through that bout round by round re-scoring, the score most came up with was 8-4 Matthysse. It would've been like giving Ruslan the draw last weekend, you could make a tenuous case for Zab but a win to him wasn't the correct result.
I asked you to list Zab's 5 best wins then explain to me how his record is better. We both know the lineal stuff has a lot to do with timing, just look at Miguel Cotto at MW right now.

Originally posted by daggum View Postan appeal to popularity is a logical fallacy. just because most people think garcia won doesn't mean its true. i explained my position but you ignored it and kept saying "well everyone else thinks he won." what's your response to my actual claims? round by round matthysse was better or even at worst and the knockdown was a foul. you can't smash a guy in the back of the head and throw him in the ropes where he becomes tangled and then knock him down. don't even pretend like that was legit. if manny did that to floyd you would cry forever tears and you would be right to complain. it's not legal. the ref f-ucked up and you are fu-cking up by not calling him out. the fight went from 114-113 matthysse to 114-112 garcia because the ref missed that call but i guess its just easier for your brain to write "garcia beat him up doe!"
