YOU brought up Tunney and Dempsey and you have been proven wrong in that neither of them saw combat. Just admit that they NEVER saw combat .Gary said:No Buckwheat you don't understand-Max saw combat-Louis never did-you punked out and brought up Tunney and Dempsey[both vets}.Now stupid I'am asking you for some negro that did any thing and you can't answer.Your not a hypocritical fool[your not that smart].
I guess everybody who never served is a slacker to you right ?. Marciano to my knowledge was never in the army either . HE IS A SLACKER TOO.Gary said:So Tyson,Clay,Bowe,Foreman Etc, were all slackers. Now we know why the cold war never got hot-can you imagine these clowns trying to take Moscow! The first time it snowed they would run for home!!!
Guess i was wriong about Marciano.Gary said:Hey Stupid Marciano was in the Army in WW2-now tell us all about the Negro in combat!
Then why bring up Tyson or Holme ect since after all they never made a choice to be in the military ?.Gary said:Yes you were wrong about Rocky-but then you should be used to being wrong. No everybody not in the military is not a slacker.
Did Tyson at any point in his life ever enlist did Holmes or Frazier ect ? . No they chose Different carreer paths . And Norton was a Marine Holmes never served yet Holmes was the one who was victorious in their fight and who had the better carreer so a military record has nothing to do with how someone did in the ring.Edited by: fistfighterGary said:You know as well as I know they couldn't make it a week in the military without getting into trouble.Tyson showed his true color's against Holyfield and McBride.
Holmes was a truck driver before he chose boxing and is a pretty good business man he OWNS his hometown.Gary said:Yes either box or jail-Frazier is doing okay-Holmes is doing okay.Tyson is broke and in debt instead of boxing maybe they should consider learning a trade. Mercer has to keep on fighting-Bowe has to keep on boxing.After 35 the guys should consider there future and health.Stay in school and in the words of Apollo Creed "Be a thinker-not a stinker".
So you nagree that a military record has nothing to do with someone's boxing carreer right ?. So you cant bring up if a fighter did or did not serve in the army since that has NOTHING to do with their boxing carreers RIGHT ?. And Corbett was a bank clerk nota banker there is a difference.Gary said:Norton had a glass jaw-Conney Ko'd him in 1 round.Leon Spinks was a Marine-he was also a bum!
Mcbride dd'nt make anybody quit Tyson was just to lazy to give a damn at that point.
I said i respected what he acomplished in his prime in the ring when did i say that i admired Tyson,White Shogun said:fitsfighter writes:

And this is a guy you admire?? He doesn't get the bum in front of him that he wanteds, he finds out he's in a real fight all of a sudden, so he just quits?
And this is a guy you admire??
He only went after guys who were afraid of him. Outside of Razor Ruddock, every fighter that actually went after Tyson beat his ass.
It's just the way it is."
Blacks sit on the back of the bus, because thats just the way it is;
or
Blacks and whites go to separate schools, because its always been done that way.
White Shogun said:Make no mistake; I root for white fighters and the men with whom I watch boxing know that I root for white fighters because they're white. They'll all Hispanic, and they make no bones about rooting for the De La Hoyas and Chavez' and Trinidads because of race. I don't either. As a matter of fact, I think its mentally and emotionally healthy for everyone involved, but I'm no psychiatrist, either.It's just the way it is."
Since they all are if anything LOWER on the caste-system's idea of athletic supermen, whenever anyone of them steps in the ring with a brutha, I'm 110% behind them.
