But thats some interesting shyt though.

Whos worse? The dude who speaks slick or the dude who censors himself? :whoo:

Definitely depends on the situation
I wasn't talking slick or censoring myself. I try my best not to call any black man a c00n frivolously, so I'm not going to operate differently and get my daps up just because Mike is a celebrity.

You're both right. I think he had good wins over an aged Holmes, a cruiserweight in Spinks, and solid fihhters in Rudock, Bruno and Tucker.

But he is incredibly overrated. Much of his resume is built around speculation. "If he was in his prime", "If he was focused".

The fact of the matter is the same things could be said about Zab Judah. You're measured by what you do in the ring.

to be honest as a half congolese, we soft as hell, lose wars to pretty much all our neighbors and dont like to fight.

no idea what Akon is talking about. we look strong but we be getting the beats from all our neighbors. we literally have zero wins against all . even angola eat from our plate. we're lovers not fighters.
True, but we do have y'alls back though. We've been tight since operation "get them crackas out the paint" so you know we give a fukk. :blessed:
Plus the borders be mad open, so don't act like y'all don't eat from our plate either. It's the dollar me'n'u with us. :mjgrin:

How can you truly trust these CAC DNA companies to tell you the truth about where you come from? Narratively they want you to believe that you're nothing but a slave from Africa. And that aliens built the pyramids. That you never accomplished anything of historical significance pre slavery.

Edit:

Moderator Barnett114 negged me for this. :mjlol:

I wonder why

AfricanAncestry is Black-owned and Black-ran. I honestly didn’t even know it’s based here in the DMV this whole time either :ohhh:

:gucci:Y'all nikkaz better back up off my GOAT.

That nikka wasn't "disappointed" in being Congolese, he was disappointed in himself for being himself.

Mike notoriously has really low self-esteem and you notice when Akon was talking to him, he was vibing with it.

Mike was one of the few PRO-BLACK athletes in the '80s when all your other c00n favorites were rocking jheri curls and laid up with White bytches.

Mike went to dinner with the '85 Bears & Michael Jordan and them and dogged them for being afraid of the Mike Ditka and called them out for being afraid of the White man.

Dude went to prison and became a Black muslim.

Hell, the reason he went to Don King was because he trusted that King wouldn't fukk him over because he was a Black man.

OK, I hear you about the biting and the rush maneuvers. :ehh:



But assuming you could actually get a gorilla to agree to not rush you and somehow play by ring rules, old dude would just bite at your limbs, which you cannot protect if you wanna keep the same mobility to dodge his first strike.:patrice:




Also, you may underestimating his "weak punches". Yes, gorillaBreh isn't getting power from his feet, but what little power he gets from his upper body is on par with Tyson.:picard:




Also, you didnt mention much about the reach disadvantage. On reach, you would have to be Bol Bol or Durant size to even play with gorillaBreh:hubie:
