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

Fear that links to other forums would result in indirect posting on this forum and violate copyright laws, and the privacy of the individual third party poster.

It is why they censor not just the name but direct links to other forums as well.

I THINK!

Bat could tell us better.

I hear what you're saying, but I don't believe Bat knows any better than us. Unfortunately mods are are slave to the system. I've been thru this.....as good or as unbiased amount is, they really have no power. It's a shame because there have been and are now people that want to make this board what most of us believe it should be.

Things have been declining here for awhile, well before the AI overlords started banning anything that moved.

Why are old school posters getting pemrbanned? what kind of reasons i mean? like old left hook? and that bum loser rockin rob?

Sports forums have been steadily dying since the late 2010s. Internet users have moved on from forums, just as they moved on from chat rooms in the 2000s. Nothing lasts forever on the interwebs and the worm always turns. When I came to Boxing Scene in 2006, there were probably half a dozen or more active boxing forums. What are there now? Maybe two? Does Ea stside Boxing still get traffic? I haven't been there in years, so I have no clue.

I forgot about es boxing, and can't even remember the names of the others either.
crazy to see this place the way it is. even the horrible way it looks..

There was a great purge by the new administration. Many outstanding members were banished because they were not Sunday school teachers. You even have to call a former middleweight champion Richard Tiger around this joint these days.

new management?
and who the **** is richard tiger?

edit: i get it now D I C K

the one who was massacred by bob foster right?

[Bronson66]

you sound like me now

so frame and natural size matter?

I thought it was height and weight only???

this is pointless if you adopt my stance.

of course fury is built like a milk bag. Hes heavy and thin framed. Not strong at all for his weight.

you realize this now?

now look at marciano hes the opposite of that

God forbid that I should sound like you on this subject.
My stance has always been a man 200lbs+ and 6ft+is big enough for anyone IF he is good enough.
185lbs, 5 ft 10 slow footed, short armed, Marciano does NOT qualify
I've been watching boxing for 68years, practised it for nearly 20,bought my 1st fight films in the mid 60's ,and have about200 books on the subject,you aren't teaching me anything.
