    So that comparison isn’t as crazy as you make it seem.




    when Golovkin stepped up in class, we saw his ceiling

    well, his ceiling is WAAAAAY lower than Tyson

    Golovkin is a classic example proving why we need to wait until a fighter steps up before crowning them with glory

    lets wait and see about this other guy man

      That's completely false.

      Larry Holmes was not shot in '88. HE beat Ray Mercer in '92, who was hell for Holyfield & everyone else.

      Also, Mike beat the entire Ring Top 10 from the year that he became champion (other than Buster Douglas), including the champion Spinks. Nobody's come close to doing that recently.

      He just made top 10 fighters look like bums.

          I'm going by what Holmes himself said, that he was basically done with boxing and then Don King showed up at his house with a suitcase full of money and talked him into the fight with Mike Tyson.

                  Boxingscene is the worst it has been in years and threads like this are the reasons why.

                    LMAO at another bummy yank, lol. Even Dave Allen would spark this bum out in less than 4 rds, lol.

                    The guy is older than Fury, AJ and Dillian Whyte, yet he's still struggling against farmers at the lowest tier of the HW division, lol.

                    The most explosive boxer since Mike Tyson is AJ. And he would be greater than the overrated Mike Tyson when he retires.

                      Yeah bro great to have you back!

                      I remember that Miami thread everyone was weighing in on Scarletts vs Tootsies lol. I ended up liking Tootsies hell lot better than Scarletts tho.

                      But you were dead on with Pizza Bar! That place is epic! Every time we go now we get a XL to go and its humongous. Whats crazy is we had some meetings at the hotel called Mondrian and the hotel manager told me that the same management group owns Pizza Bar as well.

                      I forgot what else was said in the thread but LIV and Mangos are my 2 fav mad fine honeys galore! We always land mad fine dimes with ease at those 2 spots lol.

                      Are you still in the 305 bro? Looks like we are heading back for Super Bowl weekend if you'll be around. Its gonna be insane huh?
