Actually, he said that Animal Squables was intellectually dishonest by blatantly ignoring the positives of Joe Louis and making him out to be completely horrible (also, he ignored some faults of Ali in the argument, so it wasn't unbiased). Some would argue this is trolling or flame baiting because the poster, knowing both sides of the story, intentionally ignores one side to get a firey argument started, which is what it seemed like, to be honest.

3.he should be warned for bashing,and that is what dubbs are for.but to ban a two year member with three thousand post for minor bashing making no personal or hateful attacks is wrong.
That's your opinion, but I disagree. He was vitriolicly attacking Jim Braddock over and over again. Sure he didn't call him slurs, but continually bashing a fighter just because you don't like the guy is not a minor issue after a while. I remember Tito Ortiz was driven off these boards for being called 'big head' over and over again.
