The TS should be ashamed of himself for posting that crap.Originally posted by M.I.C. View PostThe argument proposed in that video is pedestrian at best, doesn't deserve its own thread at all. The video is like listening to someone who just started watching boxing last year.Originally posted by M.I.C. View PostMost of them considering Mayweather, Pacquiao, is the dominant topic in the sport. Though I may have only joined boxingscene recently, trust me when I tell you I am an old school fan of the sport. If this was the Ali era, most of my post would be about Ali, if this was the SRL, Hagler, Hearns, Duran, era, most of my post would be about them. If this was the Tyson era, most of my post would be about him. Boxing isn't baseball, basketball, football, etc ... Our sport is dictated by the individual personalities of its biggest stars.
No everyone does not get a shot in boxing, only the best gets attention, only the best gets debated and discussed. Maybe thats not a good thing but thats how boxing works. Boxing is concerned with only the best not all the rest.
but hey listen, those guys in the video are, as you have said are amateurs, guys who have just or looking like just started to watch boxing yesterday, ...... you maybe right in that side of the argument, but what difference does that make if they give their opinion over something, in this case against floyd mayweather, does being new in boxing gives them lesser rights in making arguments.... and does being a hard core fan like yourself, as you claimed, makes you the best resource person in boxing? why would you play god, and say to us, this thread should and shouldn't be?
man.... wake up, at the end of the day.... it is not the hardcore fans that makes these athletes become millionaires... it is these guys, casual fans, like them, me included, they come in huge numbers... they're the ones who makes up the numbers in ppv....
i wouldn't dare criticise them for what they said, they look genuine and honest, .... not a hardcore type like yourself, and yet they did talk about the biggest stars in the sport of boxing, stars they will pay to watch.

I don't even know why Floyd is included in the Pound-for-pound list ?!!
He's been a welterweight for years now and he doesn't have any of the elite welters on his resume (no Williams, Margo, Cotto, Mosley, Collazo, Cintron, Berto, and now not even Pacquiao)
His last two fights were with JMM (a lightweight) and Hatton (a junior welter) !
For the life of me I cannot figure out how this is pound-for-pound worthy !!!
Fair assessment I think.
Truth right here.

Funny how Pac is being accused of being a drug user when NO ONE IN THE WORLD can even name one drug to associate him with.
Floyd = Xylocaine
Manny = ???
In 55 professional fights, you would think at least one name would have come up , but no, nothing, nada.
NOT ONE SINGLE DRUG.
All accusations, all suppositions, all talk.
Peace.
