Does anyone still think the old time heavyweights were too small to be competitive in the modern era?

I agree with the idea just drumming up names is a waste of time. I wonder if you just needed to put that into your own words before you were willing to agree.

What should be just absurdly obvious to you is larger people have a harder time keeping oxygen supplied to their muscles.

Where it's going is right back into time. You have 3 min rounds regardless of weight. You have 1 min breaks regardless of weight. This is a rules based bias that favors the big man during the action and the small man between the action. a 36 minute cut off favors larger men. No limit favors smaller men. Your history supports this. Science supports this. The only thing that doesn't is some cherry picked names from boxrec and the opinions of people who need data parsed for them.

What should be absurdly obvious is when you match a man of185lbs with one of 250lbs who can really punch,their talent being equal, is that stamina is extremely unlikely to be a factor,because the smaller man, particularly if he is a come forward swarmer ,is extremely likely to get stopped early in the contest,before stamina ,becomes an issue!

Arre you on Boxing24 Bronson?

If so how do I appeal my unfair ban?

Just because I mentioned the Pakistani **** gangs scandal I was banned the reason given was that I was 'obsessed' with ******s.

I sent a message that I actually was obsessed with justice for those poor girls, nothing more.

Yes I am,my advice would be to contact the owners.If you want you can PM me your User Name, and I can ask McGrain to look at your ban.

Thanks mate I just sent ypu a PM - I hope it worked. You can tell McGrain I will stick to boxing and topics like the White shark thread.

Any words that can be construed as political are banned. This forum is owned by a mainstream media company that wants no controversy that scares off sponsors. For example, my previous account got AI banned for making a "Happy Pri de Month" thread in the Lounge. I was sure when they started all this that they would shut down the forum part by the end of the year, but apparently I was wrong.

Bloody hell - free speech (within reason) really should be sacrosanct.

But in my experience places like digital spy are terrified of offending a certain section of the population.

I made a comment about some woman whining about Is*amophobia whilst she was stood outside the Manchester Arena in 2017 and the paramedics were still removing the bodies.

Immediate ban.

Me too, I thought for sure they were closing the forum.

It's not a big deal for me: I'm here for shi ts and giggles. I left for years and never felt the loss. But I suspect for some this is there only source of social interaction and that's who it's going to hit hard. Oh well, the wheel turns and so does the worm.....
