WELCOME TO OTNB LAND PEOPLE!

The magical place where if an ancient fighter sustains double digit losses, it's a sign of character LOL

And if a modern fighter suffers few, sometimes even just a single loss, he is a bum!

It's such extreme bias and swaggery that drives the mythology machine to this very day.

Problem is, for most of boxing history the American hype machine could get away with it because there was no access to boxrec or online video.

Unfortunately for them we can now SEE how bad they were with our very own eyes.

Jersey Joe Walcott would wipe the living shit out of James Toney.

Oh really..

When was the last time you seen him fight? Who was it, and how did he go?

You know that isn't true.

Walcott was a fine boxer, but he never was a great champ. He got jobbed in the first Louis fight, he won that fight no question, but he got KTFO in the rematch so he would have just lost the title there. Then he beat Ezzard Charles and got destroyed by Marciano in his defense. So Walcott, despite his skill, was the #1 in his weight class for about a year. Not exactly top 15 numbers.
