    Mike Tyson vs Evander Holyfield prime for prime

    certainly, my biggest criticism of Mike in all his incarnations was that he did not learn or even try to fight at a lighter pace, like every other boxer in history. You can't put 100 percent into everything and fight a whole fight. Manny was about the biggest freak in that regard I've ever...

    Mike Tyson vs Evander Holyfield prime for prime

    funny thing about Mike though (most heavyweights really) I was watching his Holmes fight, a fight included in his "peak era" and he was throwing 30 punches in some rounds, that's not enough punches for a guy like Holyfield. He did manage to fight entire fights at a good clip in his pre-douglas...

    Mike Tyson vs Evander Holyfield prime for prime

    Evander would have given him hell no matter what, that was just his mentality with Mike. Probably put them together today and it would be the same, inspite of Evander looking so old against that whoever it was.

    Is Chester Bennington the best vocalist screamer?

    Little Richard was the first and the best, no one else does it like he did though many have tried down through the decades.

    there are a couple guys on here that are pretty familiar with that era of Prince. However, Prince had many eras and images, unlike your average artist, he was changing looks and themes every time out. I think Bowie and Madonna tried that too but I don't think anyone did as much as Prince...

    i saw the musicology tour too, those two were the only ones. I had a couple other real opportunities to see him but I was getting older and I didn't have as much patience for his antics. For lovesexy, i couldn't bring in my walkman, had to hide it in some bushes. In 2011 i had the chance to...

    Movies The message behind Purple Rain (movie)

    the lovesexy concert in 88 was the best i've ever been to, although, stevie wonder and terence trent d'arby outsang him, they didn't put on as great a show. Incidentally, he had such an elaborate stage settup he lost money.

    no, I'm not "defending" him, I won't disagree with people who say he was a punk for doing what he did, not at all. People will always find something to criticize though, that's just human nature. I'm hardly a blind fan, I didn't even really like Prince the person that much during his life...

    International OJ Simpson Dead

    I wouldn't believe that, if he did he never paid his attorneys or at least not shapiro. I cackled when they asked him if he'd ever represent him again and he said no, they asked why, probably expecting some sort of real answer about how despicable oj was, instead he said, "he hasn't paid me for...

    Movies The message behind Purple Rain (movie)

    my take, upon reflection was, you ask a great musician to give tribute to another, now, do you want him being somber, respectful, reserved or do you want everything that guy has, that's my overall take although I could see the stage antics being criticized. Prince also claimed he'd never heard...

    I got to see him twice and that really wasn't enough now that he's gone. I love springsteen as much or more and only got to see him once.

    Movies The message behind Purple Rain (movie)

    I think Prince actually had himself commiting suicide in his personal version, they did the right thing getting a hollywood screenwriter to soften that shit up. Prince was into some dark shit in those days, even some rumored devil worship, the toying with gender wasn't dark but it was pretty...

    the funny thing about the Harrison tribute is it really is a Rashomon type of thing, everyone sees something totally different, from how good or bad the solo was to how Prince 'made it all about himself" for everyone who says that, there is someone saying that wasn't the case, EVEN amongst his...

    the misogyny did not only NOT age well, it wasn't well thought of at the time. The father didn't die in the movie, I've heard that Prince's original vision was even darker as a whole but they wisely decided to allow a profession screenwriter take his ideas and make them a bit more palatable...

    didn't say "all" but I notice a definite trait of certain folks. Jewish people don't hide the fact that they take care of their own, that they teach their kids to help one another, don't even hide it, it's not my opinion, it's fact. Of course it's not "all" i'd expect you to know the...

    hmmm, never heard about any group of non-blacks cheering the verdict. the middle school teacher I referred to seemed to truly hate black people, the kind of guy who'd say, "So and so isn't like that so I'm not racist" I kid you not, when he talked about one of his students he used the N word...
