That is all

1. Crawford Ashley
2. Herbie Hide
3. Pele Reid
4. Chuck Gardner
5. Rudolfo Marin
Surely Gardner over Reid and where is Percell Davis? ;)

My only critisism of him is that he keeps my Morrison/Mercer wound fresh by his constant posting of pictures like these...

:coolclick: I like this thread ;)
I had same thing when I joined, you think you know it all then you correspond with an Andre (who has probably forgotten more than the entire membership has ever known) Rick Rack, Jimmy G and C, Brad, Missy, Brock or as much as I hate to admit it Saddo. Hell even Mad Dog and Lyle know there shit.
But then you get comfortable and some of newbies pop up like Clyde, Big Hog, Big H, Wacko, The One, Gogs, Purist (Starr), Lucifer and LBSCFC, and put you in your place.
And when you get over them, another generation of excellent posters come along with Mokele and AC-Cobra leading the way.
Just realised it is suicide mentioning names, as I always forget some. ;)
Re: Is it me or do the new posters seem to know nothing about boxing?
I'm start to miss the guy who wouldn't stop posting photos of Kessler, that was entertaining for a couple of days :(
Fucker was more consistant than Sal is about Judah (shuffle!) :dance: :discomonkey:
Re: Is it me or do the new posters seem to know nothing about boxing?

Don't know...but I myself love being a newer older member & I refuse to create a new handle because personally...I'm pretty gotdam fond of being obnoxious. I also rant quite a bit...& generally never NEVER worry about being reasonable...because as most people will tell ya...you can't reason with a drunk.
Ask my wife...she'll agree. ;D
