The punches of the true HOF´ers must have been causing some brain damage Larry. Iam the biggest lagger out here, hands down. On work days my ping can go up to 900, without downloading anything. African keeps his ping below 300. Only on Sundays and at night my ping goes down to 200.

But again Larry, dont be offended. Your a great fighter, I just never seen you dominate a prime Bear, HTF, Fatny or Unstop.

but my point is that he has already proven himself..meaning is is already great...just like real sports...when Jordan came back and didn't dominate the game, that didn't make him any less great...he was already great for his dominance with the Bulls...Holyfield isn't any less great because he's losing a lot OUT of his prime...he's great because of what he's already accomplished in his prime

Larry is great because of the dominance he achieved vs HOFers in his and their primes..anything after has just been icing on the cake...and if anything...adjusting to all of the changes through the game throughout various eras of good and great fighters...and staying on top within the top 3 is not something ANY fighter in OB history can say...

Ok, good post. So when larry was in his prime he beat everyone else out there. Good point!

And now hes like the gatekeeper for the future HOF´ers. Fighters that beat Larry over and over again when in their prime like Fatny, Unstop and Bear are HOF candidates or already made it to the HOF.

Lab was doing one of his 5 day fighting spree before another year layoff lab stopped playing basically when the site started to charge. He did come back a few times for a couple weeks but then vanished again.

Sugarray
Greg Haugen
Salvador Sanchez
Tyrant
Labratory
Mike Tyson
Larry Holmes
StreetBully
Ashton
M.A.Barrera
NewGuy (was a punching bag at this time, lol)


That's quit a bit more than 3 people.

Then came along greats soon follwing like

HTF (a.k.a NewGuy)
Unstoppable
Vargas
Jermain Taylor

That's quit a bit more than 3 people. And yes these guys all played in the same era(s)

I am in no way discounting fighters of the past 1-2 years...we have had and still have some awesome fighters...but I am strictly defending Larry...he has been through it all...

He was around when players couldn't talk trash because there was no in game chat at the beginning when OB began...lol..just sign on and fight

- OB Accounts: Rocky Marciano plus too many alts

- Join Date: 2007

- Status: Retired for now. Logs on every now and then just to troll.

- OB Class: A+++++ Elite and yes you got it right a FIVE STAR Elite.

- Goals: Been there, seen that, done it all so none other than reaching 1000 fights (on an alt) with above 90% win percentage I have been hunting after ever since joining OB2D.

- Titles won: too many to remember

- Title defenses: too many to remember

- Best win streak 132 wins in a row in total.

- Style: Very technical when needed to. Other than that force ko for the win!

- Signature Punch: The Rocky Marciano combo (now also available without french fries).

- Signature Taunt: Letting opponent recover back to full healt before KOing him for good.

- Weakness: Fatny, the king of OB2D

- Career highlights: Been there and done it all but yes there is one little thing that rises above all titles and such: making Reaper quit after I tkoed him 16 times in a row all inside first two rounds. We were supposed to box 100 times

- Quotes: "I just TKoed you 16 times in a row Reaper. What's the matter? Can not make is past first two rounds? Did I make you quit? Why so silent all of sudden? Oh I just made you STFU "

- Stupid nickname given by other players: Mini Fatny.

- Words of wisdom: Styles make fights. Sometimes even HOF caliber fighters lose to inferior boxers due to this fact. Everyone has their rythm and once you get inside that rythm, you will make life hell for that person (in the ring).

- PS. All signatures are stupid.
