      no it wasn't. ad hominem is a counter argument that includes personal attack.

      Mine was simply a statement, unrelated to an argument. Similarly to when you began by calling me a clown

      As I said, you don't seem the brightest.

        Saying that ad hominem is a statement is a lie and doesn't make your wrong argument right. Stop bolstering your bad logic. You think you're coming off as intelligent but in reality you're a self-righteous know-it-all with your head up your ass.

          I explicitly said ad hominem is not a statement

          Don't try to use words or phrases that you don't understand. You'll get exposed.

            casual fan

            Bruno, Ruddock, Berbick, Tony Tucker, Bonecrusher smith, Carl Williams etc...were top ten heavyweights at the time.

            you need to watch the fights and fighters instead of regurgitate something you heard someone else say.

              His best work came with Kevin Rooney.
              Tyson's problem was mental instability. Cus kept him stable.

                I think guys like Fury, Wilder, Wlad beat Tyson easily...
                we're talking about a prime tyson here. a prime tyson would spark all 3 out. no one in the HW division right now can even come close to the power, energy and skills that tyson puts out in his prime days.

                    Don't be ridiculous.

                      How many times did he go down?

                      He looked very vulnerable.
