The wins over a past his best and past his best weight Hearns were the highlight of Barkley's career....The only title fights he was successful in were against Hearns
Iran Barkley KOED Hearns once , then beat him on points , also he KOED Darrin Van Horne in a title fight. Iran was a good fighter.
I always felt his whole career was based on his wins over Tommy...If he never fought Hearns there is a chance Barkley would hardly be mentioned at all.....
There have been worse champion I agree But it is just IMO on him.....Worst title holder ever not by far...just one that came to mind quickly

Pretty sure I already covered that when I said "
"His style was taught to him by CUS"
Pay attention before you try to be abnoxious and add an LOL like you know something nobody else does....
Who made it famous first?
Why was the style so effective?
What about the style did Cus feel it suited Floyd perfectly for?
Tyson also used a different version of it hence forth the
"His style was based off of"
Anyhow be on with yourself...I won't even debate something with a guy who thinks Floyd Patterson was an undeserving champion

Most of them are around 130-140lbs
That's why i laugh when people say Khan won't be a world champion.
He'd beat all of those with his eyes closed.
Mora, Harris, M'Baye and Arthur would all beat Con. Maussa and Cook would draw with him. Con beats Rees.

Well actually what you said was it was Floyds style taught by cus what i said was it was cus style he invented it not floyd i though that was straight forward enough floyd was just one of a number of fighter he taught it to
If you think that i was being abnoxios your an idiot i was having a discusion just because someone disagrees with you does not mean they are abnoxious so grow up
Ps i dought you know how cus came up with the style so dont assume after a few lines you no more than someone else only someone who is arogent to the point od stupidity would do that
Ps stop just saying champs are good because its popular opinion look for yourself before you speak

OK #1
If you are going to use the word stupidity when refering to someones make sure you do not use it in a sentence typed out like
"Ps i dought you know how cus came up with the style so dont assume after a few lines you no more than someone else only someone who is arogent to the point od stupidity would do that"
The second you spelt "DOUGHT" you lost your whole point...
#2 I have seen almost every FP fight
#3 It is not my opinion it is a fact on his place in history
#4 I personally knew not only Floyd since I was around 6...I also knew Cus from the amatuers when Mike was coming up....Tysons first Promoter was my coach's wife
Please do not try to school me on anything having to do with Patterson, D'Amato, the peek a boo style or Tyson....
I have not read or seen their stuff on TV I have actually been in the gym while it was being taught..
Have a nice Day:D
