    And there was a time when 'MOST' people believed the Earth was flat or the Earth was in the center of the universe or that space travel was impossible. In other words, these are opinions of people and not fact. Those opinions turned out to be false in the end!

    A true fact is something that is mathematically / scientifically demonstrable and measurable.

      HOF is a joke, Americans and their sports are a joke.
      Those boxers (based on seeing their performances in their bouts excluding their bouts against Klitschko) would AT THE VERY LEAST, be competitive against any past heavyweight champion.

        You can't measure skill with numbers.

        If you want a sport where numbers are the be all and end all boxing isn't for you.

        Boxing is a sport where they don't have to fight the best and can cherry pick their way to a good record. Which happens now more than ever.

            Wrong. His brother was also fighting them.

                Lewis beat better competition (Holyfield, Tyson, Tua, Golota, Vitali, Bruno, Morrison, Biggs), it's not even close.

                  If it's clear then why did you shorten the video? Put the rest up so we can see him counted out..............................

                    I didn't shorten **** you bellend. That's from the replay from between rounds.

                    You can even see where it cuts off at the end.



                    I know Wlad getting slapped about by a golfer really hurts you.

If I had that cv I'd need a lot of tempting to get back in the ring with a young VK who looked good before the cut. I think VK wins the rematch btw, time was catching up with Lewis. Not everyone ages at the same rate. But we'll never know for sure, maybe Lewis trains that much harder and schools VK in the rematch.

                      As for the 'draw' with Holyfield. Watch enough boxing and you'll see such decisions every so often. They inevitably result in further massive revenue generating contests. Funny that.
                      See that's where we differ in opinion. Everyone thought he should fight Wladimir before he faced Vitali but after that fight, everyone knew Vitali got the better of LL and he needed to 'prove' that he could beat him without winning by lucky cut in a fight that he was losing 2 to 1 at the time of stoppage.
