    Not to mention that Jennings was the one who handed Perez his first loss. The very same Perez you tout as one of Povetkin's best wins.

    The Povetkin win over Byrd was good, no doubt about that. But let's not forget that Byrd was two fights away from the end of his career and he was never truly a legitimate HW no matter how much some fans may have wished him to be. So you had a young, hungry prospect beating an old, overblown cruiser masquerading as a HW, while outweighing him by nearly 20 pounds and almost 10 years age difference.

    Byrd is just a name on Povetkin's resume.

    Again... I'm not arguing that Povetkin's resume isn't better than Ortiz's. Only that it's not the wide chasm you're making it out to be.

    But like you said.... we can obviously disagree.

    Civil... non-combative. All about boxing.



    Your response:

    I haven't compared the "faded" Jennings with the "non faded" version. You have that impression because - @TitoFan - you've butted into a discussion I was having with Powerpuncher, who is arguing Ortiz current form is superior to Povetkin's. You are bringing up points that strengthen my argument whilst weakening his. I was disproving your claim that Jennings should be above Hunter.

    I'm happy to debate any opinions but it needs to be kept in context because I have no interest in tantrums and tiaras.

    Insulting, and provocative.

    Again.... show me where it says I can't enter a discussion about boxing in a boxing board.

    Also, show me where ANYTHING I SAID warranted your mention of tantrums, tiaras and flame wars.

    Thanks.

    I keep my dislike of you out of the boxing board. Can't you have the courtesy with everyone of doing the same?
