I understand the premise of elite dogs sometimes never being tested ... and how DOY is more about the "most decorated" dog versus the gamest.

Still what turns a fighter from "front runner" to "legend" is having to display depth of heart in the trenches.

We all knew Ali was great, talent-wise, but it was only through his life & death wars with Frazier/Foreman, etc. that Ali earned his immortality.

If you watch the Ali/Frazier wars, and compare them to today's heavyweights, makes you want to shut your tv off to today's fighters ... after you've seen that level of heavyweight matchup.

Buck had his legendary war ... Jeep had his legendary war ... and the camp with Titere has gone to war ... but it seems like Titere is just too good for what's out there for there to be the same kind of war.

Not trying to take away from Titere at all (far from it, he has my vote) ... but (conceptually) I am raising the question of shouldn't a fighter have to overcome extreme adversity ... in a legendary fight at some point ... to become a legend ... or are some dogs just so good that no one can truly check their oil?

Check that Thrilla In Manila my friend Ali quit on his stool. Eddie Futch picked Frazier up being Frazier good eye was closed which rendered him blind. All Frazier had to do was answer the bell which he wanted too... Sorry for getting off topic lol.

Hey Jack I believe some are just that good where they never get tested. Here's one for ya, would CH Bad Rosemary would've gotten challenged if Ablizin didn't bring her out in horrible shape? I think not nd feel the same bout titere to find out if he's game he'd have to be handicapped which nobody in their right mind would do...
