Surveys are the best way for me to get the visitor's opinions about my page and the world of boxing. I always read every survey and I appreciate the time and effort that is put forth by the senders. But occasionally i'll get ones that just don't make any sense or they're just plain stupid.
(Best Pound for Pound) Does that mean the fighter who's in the best shape (lowest percent of body fat)? Maybe it's that Jones guy. He's like 4% body fat, so maybe that's him, but I can't be sure. I don't know, i'll get back to you on this one.(Favorite Fight) Favorite??? I don't like Butterbean(well sometimes I do). He's fat. So I liked the fight where he beat that guy with that horrible record (don't remember his name, but I think he was either white, asian or Mexican).
(Favorite Division) Heavyweights, they're the most exciting.
(Least Favorite Division) Heavyweight, they are overpaid and on steroids, they can also be very boring sometimes. [But he just said the Heavyweights were the most exciting!]
(Favorite Fighter) Probably Butterbean(although I don't like him very much) or Courage Shabalala(he got knocked out by Brian Scott).
(Least Favorite Fighter) Either Butterbean(because he's fat and sucks lard) or Prince Charles Williams(because he's a light-heavyweight). [Butterbean was his favorite fighter a second ago!]
(Rating) 9 (Favorite-Section) Top 50 (Least-Favorite-Section) Links (Best Thing) Lot's of Heavyweights(although I don't always like them).
(Worst Thing) Lot's of Heavyweights and not enough info on Butterbean's fights. Even though Butterbean's a sideshow, I still don't like him, but he's pretty good for a four-round fighter. I really don't think anyone(maybe good fighters) could beat him in a four-rounder. [Only good fighters can beat Butterbean??? Mitchell Rose, who was 1-6 at the time, stopped the Bean in the 2nd round.]
(Wish) News on Gerry Cooney(where's he at and where's he going). It would have been a great fight if he fought Butterbean. I would predict Cooney by third round KO, but he'd get dropped twice in the process.
(Other Sites) I can't remember??? I have used others. I think one of them started with an "M". (Found-by) other (Age) 22-24 (Sex) Male (Country) Near Canada, in North Dakota(which is in the USA) (Comments) Great site, but no Butterbean news, but who cares about him, he's just a fat slob of a sideshow. I say we try to get him retired.
Here's a survey by another intelligent guy.
(Best Pound for Pound) ricardo lopez (Favorite Fight) ricardo lopez vs edito villamor (Favorite Division) strawweight (Least Favorite Division) strawweights (Favorite Fighter) ricardo lopez (Least Favorite Fighter) ricardo lopez (Rating) 5 (Favorite-Section) Results
Here is another survey I recieved, but there's one major problem, it's in Spanish. In addition to that, some of the grammar and words don't seem to be right(he also makes a terrible joke in English). But i've taken some Spanish in school and i've tried to translate it as good as I can. The translations will be in Bold.
(Best Pound for Pound) "El Diablo Pequeno" Enrique Humberto Gonzalez ["The Little Devil" Enrique Humberto Gonzalez(Who???)]
(Favorite Fight) "El Diablo Pequeno" Enrique Humberto Gonzalez VS "El Lobo de pequeno y mal" Angel Julio Rodrigues con el Bolivian Lightweight Championship: Un Boxcino de magnifico.

(Favorite Fighter) "El Diablo Pequeno" Enrique Humberto Gonzalez, 17-19-3(4 KO's): Champion de Bolivia. Won tre strate, en the werds of America's Jim Carey, "He's Smokin" ["The Little Devil" Enrique Humberto Gonzalez, 17-19-3(4 KO's): Champion of Bolivia. Won three straight, in the words of America's Jim Carey, "He's Smokin"(with the little English this guy knows, he has to go and make a horrible joke).]

Here's another one that I got recently. The guy who sent this in is a die-hard fan of a certain boxer. Personally, I'm suprised that it didn't come sooner.
(Best Pound for Pound) Tommy Morrison, he'll be back!!! HE WILL KO AIDS AND THE REST OF THE HEAVYWEIGHT DIVISION!!!!!!! [Although Morrison says so, I seriously doubt that he will get rid of AIDS by taking some extra vitamins.]
(Favorite Fight) Tommy Morrison KO 2 Brian Scott, Morrison easily KO'd Scott and Scott destroyed Courage Tshabalala who was awesome!!! [Courage Tshabalala was awesome? When?]
(Favorite Division) Cruiserweight, They're are the TRUE Heavyweights!!! [No, actually the Heavyweights are the TRUE Heavyweights.]
(Least Favorite Division) ALL THE SMALL PEOPLE! 230 and below! [The Cruiserweight limit is 190 pounds and they're his favorite.]
(Favorite Fighter) Tommy "The Duke" Morrison, John Wayne's Nephew!!! (Least Favorite Fighter) Michael Bentt, he sucks!!! Hide hurt him bad! [Michael Bentt KO'd Morrison in the first round, when Morrison was at the peak of his career. But that couldn't be the reason that this guy hates Bentt, could it?]
(Rating) 10 (Favorite-Section) Heavyweight Comparisons (Least-Favorite-Section) Results (Best Thing) Lots of stuff, but why no Tommy? [Tommy has AIDS, he doesn't box anymore]
(Worst Thing) NO MORRISON!!! WHAT GIVES!!! HE'S PROBABLY ONE OF THE BEST(IF NOT THE BEST) FIGHTER EVER!!! [This is a first, Morrison being labled one of the best(if not the best) fighters ever]
(Wish) I PREPOSE A MORRISON FAN SHRINE, MORRISON INFORMATION, BIOGRAPHY, LIKES + DISLIKES AND OTHER TRIVIAL DATA. ALSO MORE MORRISON!!!
(Other Sites) ??? (Found-by) Other (Age) 35-49 (Sex) Male (Country) near JAY, OKLAHOMA, Tommies' Hometown (Comments) GOOD, BUT NO TOMMY. IMPROVE BY ADDING ALL MORRISON STUFF.
Here is yet another survey by another die-hard fan.
(Best Pound for Pound) Eric Lucas(1996 Canadian Boxer of the Year, Almost beat Roy Jones) [Lucas landed an average of 9 punches a round and that's a generous figure]
(Favorite Fight) Tom "The Bomb" Glesby KOing Everton Davis: The American thought he was all that, until Tommy smacked him. [His Favorite Fight is Glesby VS Davis and wasn't Davis a Canadian Olympian?]
(Favorite Division) Heavyweight (Least Favorite Division) Super-Middleweight: I'll never watch a Super- Middleweight fight again. Lucas was easily beating Jones, but Jones couldn't lose, so they stopped the fight. [Lucas didn't even come close to winning a round.]
(Favorite Fighter) Tie: Tom Glesby and Razor Ruddock, but I'd go with Glesby cuz he's white. (Least Favorite Fighter) Lennox Lewis: That traitor left us, if he ever fought Razor Ruddock, he'd get crushed. [Lewis did fight Razor Ruddock and Ruddock was destroyed in two rounds.]
(Rating) 9 (Favorite-Section) Top 50 (Least-Favorite-Section) Divisional Rankings (Best Thing) Heavyweights (Worst Thing) No Glesby, not in pound for pound, top 10 or even the top 50. I demand Tom be ranked!!! [Glesby doesn't deserve to be in the Top 100 Heavyweights]
(Wish) Tom Glesby profile, Tom's fav things and Tom picture gallery. [Tom's fav things???]
(Other Sites) Slam Boxing(canadian site) (Found-by) link (Age) 35-49 (Sex) Male (Country) Ontario, Canada (Comments) More Tom!!!!!!!!!!!
Here's another nut, but this one's from the Phillipines. After reading the entire survey, go back and read the pound-for-pound part again. It doesn't make any sense.
(Best Pound for Pound) George Foreman(the real HW champ, he beat Moorer and hasn't lost) [OK, so Foreman is the Lineal HW champ, but he's not even close to being the Best Pound-for-Pound.]
(Favorite Fight) Wilfredo Vazquez VS Agapito "Finito" Sanchez(Awesome technical boxing match) (Favorite Division) Jr. Bantamweight: Johhny Tapia, Danny Romero, Polo Saucedo and Gerry Penalosa!!! What more could you want? (Least Favorite Division) Anything over 154, especially Heavyweights, they are fat and overpaid and their skills suck!!! [Evander Holyfield's skills suck?]
(Favorite Fighter) Alimi Goitia (WBA Jr. Bantamweight) (Least Favorite Fighter) Lennox Lewis, he should have been disqualified. He made it look like Akinwande was holding him. He should be banned. [He thinks Lewis should be disqualified and banned, because Akinwande wouldn't stop holding him.]
(Rating) 8 (Favorite-Section) Upcoming (Least-Favorite-Section) Anything with Heavyweights (Best Thing) It pays respect to Ricardo Lopez, the GREAT Mexican hero. Strawweight champ for several years and still undefeated. But you rank him too low. [#3 is too low?]
(Worst Thing) It covers Heavyweights. (Wish) Top 50 Straw, Jr. Fly, Fly, Jr. Bantam and Bantamweights. Also a Mexican and Filipino boxer Shrine. They are the BEST!!! [I don't think there are 50 Strawweights.]
(Other Sites) Roberto's Little Big Fighters(http://www.members.aol.com/ roberto/littlebig.html) (Found-by) other (Age) 49- (Sex) Male (Country) From Mexico, but now live in the Phillipines (Comments) More little fighters. Ariba!!!
I hardly ever receive Hate Mail. That's too bad, because I really enjoy them. When someone sends me a piece of Hate Mail, do they actually think it hurts me? Do they actually think that I will correct my ways and follow their directions? Especially when they use profanity or write the message with the Caps Lock on. But some people are convinced that if you yell and scream, everyone else will follow their opinions and accept them as their own. Sorry, all of the screaming, begging and swearing in world, won't convince me to rank Tyson ahead of Holyfield or rank Julio Cesar Chavez as the best Pound-for-Pound. I get messages like this all the time. One person complained because Holyfield was ranked higher than Tyson. Holyfield beat him twice in a row, he should be ranked higher! But they say, "Holyfield provoked Tyson. He headbutted him. Holyfield should have been disqualified". Those people are idiots. But as of right now, I have only one good piece of Hate Mail that's worthy enough to be put here. But I bet i'll get some good ones when the people I called idiots, see this and complain about it.
Here's a real classic. This message is from ANGRY RUSSIAN MAN.
You f***ing suck! Alexandre Zolkien should be #1!!! What the f*** are you talking about, you f***ing moron. Zolkien is the best. He was beating the F*** out of Henry "the Brittish C***sucker" Akinwande before the f***ing f*g Brit intentionally headbutted him, which opened a bloody f***ing cut which caused the referee to stop the fight. Zolkien clearly out-slugged him, out- jabbed him and just beat the f*** out of him. I'm suprised that that stupid f***ing referee didn't stop the fight when Zolkien continued to pound on Akinwande. This is more of that Don King s***. He f***ing paid off the referee to stop the fight. He didn't want his fighter to lose, SO he PAID OFF the f***ing referee to stop the fight so that f***ing Brit Akinwande could fight his other Brit c***suckers, Welch and Lewis. If that referee didn't stop the fight, my boy Zolkien would have stopped your precious #5 Akinwande that round AND he would be the first Russian Heavyweight Champion. So get you f***ing page together and put Zolkien ahead of the paper f***ing champions; Holyfield, Lewis, Moorer and that f***ing bum Akinwande. By the way, Riddick Bowe gave up his title because he didn't want to fight Zolkien. He made the right decision and fought that stupid f***ing Pollack Golota twice. If he fought my boy, he would have took a worse beating than both of those fights combined. Alexandre Zolkien will be the Next Undisputed Heavyweight Champion of the World. ANGRY RUSSIAN MAN

Most sites give equal time to all fighter's and weight classes, but your site knows that the heavyweights make boxing. Keep up the great work. (Best Thing) The Main Event. I enjoy reading other people's opinions about who would win between the best in the division. (Best Thing) In depth analyisis (Best Thing) Variety of information (Best Thing) Amount of info, and very up to date (Best Thing) It is all very impressive. (Best Thing) It is really up to date !! (Best Thing) THE BEST PART OF THIS SITE IS THE VARIETY OF TITLES OF THINGS TO LOOK AT IT IS VERY INTERESTING AND INFORMATIVE. (Best Thing) Its great to find a site with the Heavyweight info I've been seeking. (Best Thing) The info is easy to get to and well presented.

(Other Sites) 0 (Other Sites) I'm new at this so it is the first one, and I like it a lot
(Comments) females are boxers too. recognize it & be proud! [I recognize the fact that women box, but why should I be proud?]
(Favorite Division) TKO (Least Favorite Division) STOP ERLIES FIGHTS [Apparantly this guy confused Division with Result.] (Favorite Division) wbc/Ibf (Least Favorite Division) Ibo/iba [This guy somehow got Division confused with Commission.] (Favorite Division) Oscar De La Hoya-Pernell Whitaker (Least Favorite Division) Hector Camacho-Roberto Duran [And this one got Division confused with Decision.]
(Worst Thing) Ignore world champion titles outside IBF/WBA/WBA [What should I do, consider every alphabet championship as the real thing? Three Championships are enough, we don't need 20 or more of them.] (Worst Thing) You probably rated Tyson 7, because of the incident with holyfield. [Of course I did. Holyfield beat him him twice in a row. Would you like me to rank him #1, I don't think so. If you're referring to Tyson biting Holyfield's ears. No, I didn't punish him for that.] (Worst Thing) I thought that the World Boxing Organization was a major belt, yet you do not include it in your Divisional Rankings section. [I only accept the WBA, WBC and IBF as "Real" championships. The WBO title is about the equivalent of the NABF, 15 years ago. If I support the WBO, I I might as well support the WBF, IBO, etc.]
Nice page! It's real comprehensive and I think better than Boxing.com! Anyway, I have a rumor to ask you about! I have a friend who is from Western Samoa who went home to visit recently. While he was there he read the local paper and according to him the paper showed a picture of David Tua (originally from Western Samoa) holding his old belt recently taken by Ike Ibeabuchi. Now according to my friend the paper stated that Ike Ibeabuchi was found to have tested positive for steroids and was then stripped of his title and Tua was given back his belt! I haven't heard one actual fact from anywhere and I'm sure this stuff would be picked up by the press!! Have you heard anything, or is this just some wishful thinking by patriotic Samoans? I would appreciate any information you could share!
