I'm not trying to defend this with logic...Maybe watching Tyson take ppl out the way he did and in the time he did means more to some people than the technique he used and the sanity he owned....

Which means, your basis of comparison is..? Your previous statement highlights what I mean exactly, other than laying out your essentially invalid opinion in a 10 page thread, what were you hoping would happen..?

This is like a guy that went to sleep right after Wilt Chamberlain scored 100 pts in a game, waking up in 2006 and saying that Wilt is the greatest player ever in spite of...

Daaammmmmmmmnnn. Are you trying to objectively disprove my opinion? What the fuck, just cuz you might not like my girlfriend does not mean she is not right for me...All I am fucking saying is that how I measure greatness in boxing, Tyson is right up there...Maybe you thinked I have a fucked up way of measuring it. Ok. Fine. Not everyone can be as enlightened as me lol...But seriously...I can understand a little opposition but this, to quote some Anchorman, is gettin to be re-goddamn-diculous!

Dude walks into a thread where people that are passionate about boxing...Says some wild shit...And is shocked when people tell him to leave the thread...

As Don King would say, "Only in America..!"

Again, I ask, what did you think should happen..? You aren't even equipped to add anything of worth to the discussion, and you said that yourself...

How you measure greatness in boxing...? Shit man, we just established that you can't measure anything didn't we..? I certainly respect you giving your opinion, but my grandmother always told me to think about what I say, and if it improves upon the silence...

It's good advice...

lol has this become "end your post with a quote" thread?

that is some good advice though...

And Ty is totally right. You can't jump into a thread that we're all talking with logic and what we know...throw out your opinion that goes against what we're saying...and provide no reasons for why you have your opinion...other than its just your opinion...and expect not to get something back in return...

and from someone who if I'm not mistaken was bragging about his english skills in a thread I saw the other day...... and to steal your quote...

QUOTE(Aemeth)Maybe you thinked I have

is "re-goddamn-diculous!"

LoL...

Think about it Aemeth...There is no right or wrong in this, is there..? I mean, there is no way that we'll ever know the answer to what we're debating...

All we have is our logic...

Alright, I have to keep 3.5 to keep my scholarship, I am on the verge of making collegiate nationals for swimming, i am working txv and i am making a pretty penny selling ebooks to fund it all. it is no excuse, but i usually am on here when i am hella tired, so sorry for the occassional grammatical air (happy? quote me again, please).

if you don't want me to fucking express my opinion, then ban me. i have a different view on what determines greatness in this sport. i am not even going to write anymore because it is a waste of my time. maybe i can't use my english all the time, but at least i can accept an alternate view for crissake...

lol....so now you come back crying for sympathy because your life is so hard?

Dude...no one is going tobaby you....if you come incorrect...expect to be called out on it....and if you can't back yourself up.....dont cry and make up excuses.....either take it....or admit you might have miscalculated something and your opinion may be off....

but this "if you don't like me....ban me" bullshit I'm not trying to hear....

if your opinion sucks.....and has no logic behind it....the "but its my opinion" line loses all credibility.

I think Michael Doleac is the best NBA player of all time....

do I have any logic or anything to back that up....despite all the talk in this thread tha disputes that?....nope....but its my opinoin...and I'm entitled to it.


You are entitled to your opinion....but when its based on nothing...and you can't come up with a a single reason why you think as you do.....then it's meaningless.


and I'll just disregard your last post because it was as pathetic if not more...than all the ones that have preceeded it in this thread.

Couldn't have said it better myself L.G...

i have a different view on what determines greatness in this sport

Well shit son, what is it..? You're being ripped for it, and well damn, we don't even know what it is...I just want to know how you gather an opinion that contradicts everything rating boxers is about, and then still want to stand by it and make us feel like bullies...What a crock of shit..!

That's why I asked you, Aemeth, what did you expect would happen..? Sure, we want your opinion...Definitely do...But...If you give it, and it makes no sense...I mean, I just don't understand that...

I wouldn't walk up to a group of you and your friends, engaged in a conversation about the most comfortable gym shoes of all times, and come up and say K-Swiss are the best cause they put pillows under their shoes...

And the only reason I give for them being so, is cause they have a pillow on them...So, what's softer than a pillow..? You say, "Nike Shox are great, they have refined dampning coils in the heel that absorb shock up to a 2 story jump.." And I say, "But K-Swiss has the pillow, and that's hella soft..."

Just cause you wear shoes, that don't mean you have a valuable opinion on how they work and operate in another context other than having something on your damn foot...

If you and your friends would look at me and say, "Wow A, that doesn't follow what we're saying, but...Alright, if that's how you feel..."

Unfortunately, I'm not that idealistic...Or that sensitive...So please, kiss my ass...If you don't have anything of relevance to say, aren't intending to defend it, then read and back out of the thread...It's simple, really...

If we were talking about most vicious knockouts, then sure...Great opinion...But that's not even what we're fucking talking about, boxing greatness isn't established by some dude simply knocking another man out and that's that...
