    Hank didn't need no darn tootin catchweight fights. His record = mas macho!

    Pac's record IMO doesn't register as legendary to me because had he fought in 1930s 1940s, 50s, 60s, he'd have to go from smallest to heavyweight to do that!
    Flip the script, had Hank Armstrong fought in his era, whose to say he would have won 9 or 10?


    I love Pac as an action fighter, great power, speed, will, but that record IMO is kinda bogus, especially considering that he never held 2 belts in any division, let alone clean it out.
    but on the down side its another @SlimTrae thread from the land that time forgot

    What a whipper snapper

    Pacman, Malinaggi, Tyson, Holyfield etc it's hardly ancient Rome is it? I am with you on Resume though. Sounds like one of those posh French afters that Al pays £25 for.

    Fixed it 4 ya!

    Well let me get back to the oldies - who still pull in million ppvs
    Mike Tyson’s exhibition fight against Roy Jones Jr pulled in 1.2million pay-per-view buys, it has been revealed.


    I'll stay oldschool and hang on to the greats before my day, during my day and today. Isn't that a sportsfan? one who can discuss all eras?
    All's lost! Everything's going to shit!
