        Well, taking Ls is part of boxing and life. Any boxer that never took a L, definitely skipped tough fights.

          When I saw this thread I knew without a doubt that you wrote it. You are this huge yeah for the UK and fuc the USA guy always bigging up the UK and trashing the USA. That gets really old in a hurry. You have not been on this forum long and have trashed American boxing and boxing fans without letup. Our boxers come to your land and beat your champions all the time. We don't win every time but we do win most of the time.

            I've been on the website since 2008 but I just never registered because there was no reason to. However, the anti-UK sentiments made me register. And I'm here now - not going anywhere. Not looking for fans, that's for suckers/clowns who don't get enough love out there. I'm just having fun, lol.

            Also, that has nothing to do with being anti-US - it's about setting things out straight.

              He said looking into the visage of The Rock.


              You don't respect Marciano? You're a Looney Tune.

              Marciano was often the underdog, not favored to win, he still won.

              The only men of any note in his era he didn't beat up were who got beat before they made it to Marciano's level and the men who beat them did get beat up by Rocky.

              The champ, ktfo

              The former champ, ktfo

              The former-former champ, ktfo

              The euro champ, ktfo

              The brit champ, ktfo

              The LHW champ, ktfo

              The highly exalted defense prospect from the Bronx who pioneered a rope-a-dope style, using the ropes to absorb the energy of blows. Got his arms broken and ktfo.

              The highly exalted western prospect got his 50+, yes, 50+ win streak ended and ktfo.

              The highly exalted midwest prospect who got the backing of Ring then got ktfo.

              13 men, 13, would retire directly after facing Marciano. 25 within five fights or less.

              One of the highest KO ratios in the game period

              One of the highest KO counts of any champion

              One of the cleanest records of all time

              Hit for over 925ft-lbs, almost twice a .45, one of the hardest hitters ever.

              One of the highest output boxers ever.


              It's cool you wanna shine some light on the UK, but, don't get crazy now. Y'all wish you had a Marciano to brag about.

                2). Sugar Ray Robinson: he lost to Randy Turpin in London but took the rematch to new York in his own country.

                Add more if you can find any.
                Who can blame then. Both the English judges the English referees are extremely unfair to and bias against visiting champions. By the way two examples in the last 70 years isn't much of a list. Leonard would have defeated Duran and Robinson would have defeated Turpin no matter where the rematch took place.

                  AJ skipped tough fights and still managed to lose to a short arsed fatty, then shat his pants to go back to the scene of the crime for the rematch

                    LMAO. Which tough fights did he skip?

                    Josh Taylor, the Dominic Breazeale of light welterweight division is getting slept next month. You can’t block punches with your face at elite level and he’s gonna learn the hard way.

                      Marciano was a bum, lol. Italians are better off as mafians than boxers.
