No Bill I haven't.

I am not 100 years old.

I do not routinely watch bum fights from 50 years ago as a form of entertainment or even education purposes.

And I don't have to watch this one to know much about it either. If you had presented an intriguing match up with competitive numbers AT ALL, I would be compelled to go to the video (if it even is online). But when I see such lopsided cherry picking, seeing the history of both fighters in front of me, there is really little point.

You say he was not easy to hit and blow smoke up his ass. Please tell me then if this is the case, why this guy LOST so many fights if he was as elusive as a ghost?

Honestly? He CAN'T have been that hard to hit if he was such a loser!

And let's say Shavers himself DID have some trouble landing on him, as he probably did. This is evidence that Shaver's was skill-wise a SHOCKING boxer! Not evidence that Leslie was a good opponent!

You use the OTNB method of praising fighters.

Ancient fighter struggles with bum = bum must be good
Modern fighter struggles with bum = modern fighter is less than a bum.

Wake up Bill, your slipping badly!
