Jimmy Young versus Sonny Liston

[Bronson66]

LOL. I have a bad heart, don't scare me that way, grandpa. My mistake on Dunn. Makes the point perfectly though. Finding the great Gardener's record is like looking for a needle in a stack of needles. Translation: he was a nobody.

You are really something to say I got personal on a forum where people call each other names by the hour.I didn't, as anyone who reads the post can easily see. You dish it out hard, gramps, but can't take anything at all, can you? I see you dish it out daily. What I pointed out was fair and honest. If you don't like it, get your Z war bonnet on. I feel you itching to call someone names. Oh, I know, I know, anything to distract from a point you have already lost. I used your own method on you. When I know I am wrong I just admit it. It is up to you how much you want to expose your inner hatred to this small world here. I feel your need. Go ahead, expose. I (not we) want to see how far you will take this silly defense of Young's punching power. It should be a good show.

British Commonwealth Champion

British Champion

European Champion

Not world class, but not a nobody either.


I think I hear a mesmerized youth's eyes talking through an old man's brain about a very exciting event for him. Been there, done that. Whatever Young did to Dunn, 10 others did as well, in only 55 outings for the lad. Dunn had a scandalously weak chin and Young had notoriously poor power. It might be time for the boy in you just to give that up, laddie.
The above isnt personal?


I'm often personal on here but I don't initiate it ,you have. I can take anything you can dish out fella and come back for more,that's your call ,you seem itching to get into a flame war with me and have twice gone out of your way to start one.

It's perfectly fine to dislike me, for my part, until yesterday you really hadn't come on to my radar.

I've given you a few likes for posts in the past ,but obviously you have taken against me, that's fine too.

You can join Queenie,Z.and Monkey,dissapointing really as I had thought you a level or two above them.


I said Young had some pop,ie he was capable of dropping fighters and he did, Gardner and Foreman being two of them.That doesn't mean he was a heavy duty ****er and I never implied he was.

But if you feel a need to continually regurgitate my phrase ,"some pop," as a weapon go for it.

I'm not hyping Young, I disliked him and his style ,and I feel no urge to justify myself to you.

If you want to chew on this bone further, be my guest, but it will be a solo performance.

This is what I mean. Do you honestly believe that when someone disagrees with and ribs you once or twice in an entirely friendly manner that they have taken up arms against you?

Or to take arms against a sea of troubles and by opposing end them.
