The aspect of performance enhancers can't be over looked and Floyd is playing the cards that are in his hand. Who the **** are you to call any world class fighter a wussy?..........Rockin'

boxing = sports using physical contact.
boxer = PROFESSIONAL boxer.
so if you are a professional in a field of boxing it is simplest way to understand
floyd is an expert in it. but he is a guy protecting himself and his health.
ALI is the king of everything he does.. Floyd isnt. thats why he call himself a
MONEY.
bob costas ask him... and he answers.... and it is very sad.
he is not afraid of pac thats why he is asking for a test.
he is afraid of LOASING that "0".
if he loses that he lost all that $ and his credibility and his legacy is in
jeopardy.
**** legacy, he never listens to his fan. lol.
if floyd fails on thinking pac is on something he thinks about about his health
as he said, "anything can happen."

Originally posted by Rockin' View Postok, fine no issue on tests. Still I ask, who the **** are you to call any world class fighter a wussy? You know nothing of warring in the ring or how much it takes to step in there nor do you have any first hand experience of the damage incurred in prize fights. Just another arm chair critic...............Rockin'

Originally posted by tatangb45 View PostAli, Robinson, Duran, Hearns, Hagler, etc. all knew and accepted that boxing is dangerous profession. Yet they recognized that to achieve gain and fame, they must take the risk and accept the pain. They also realized that to minimize the pain they must rely on their skills, not on their ability to avoid the threats.
Boxing is a physical and dangerous sport. That is it's nature. That is also what makes it enticing to watch. If boxers can cherry pick their opponents and duck the threats because they fear the possible dire consequences, then the sport of boxing will simply become a joke, a farce. There would be no point in watching and supporting the sport anymore. We all might as well switch to watching ballroom dancing.
Any sport, whether its football, basketball, tennis, swimming, track & field, etc., the goal is to determine who is the best. And to be the best, athletes must face the best. Anyone who refuses to abide and accept this universal principle of all sports and who will instead deliberately duck a threat for fear of losing, or is afraid of the adverse consequences, is nothing but a COWARD and should not be allowed in the sport in the first place. Likewise, any fan who agrees with the COWARD is contributing to degradation of the sport and is definitely not a true fan of that sport.

People actually have to get this theory out of their heads that just because someone steps into the ring with someone that makes them both courageous.
Fighters are trained to fight each other, it's a job for them. They are used to this, they prepare and train extensively, spend thousands of hours just for these boxing matches. The pain threshold is very very different for a boxer then for a non fighter. For instance, in the Holyfield Fights these punches Holyfield landed on Lewis will literally kill a basketball player, but for Lewis he was barely hurt. You can't judge boxer courage the same way you judge courage for other people and athletes.
BOXER COURAGE is guys like Joe Frazier, Ali, guys like them. And ya to a extend Mike Tyson because despite all his training this guy is severely under sized for a boxing champion so he did have a **** load of courage.
Wladimir Klithscko going into the ring with god damn Mormock , it's just a every day job for him. Nothing courageous about that.
BOXING COURAGE is when Lennox Lewis was hurt bad against Frank Bruno and sucked it up going on to knock him the **** out. It's when Frazer continuously throw himself at Ali and getting punished nonstop. It's Holyfield vs Bowe Round 10. It's bowe vs golota 2. That's boxing courage.

Both pacquiao and Floyd are overhyped as hell and scared of each other. But I do gotta give Pacquiao some credit for going into the ring against De la Hoya and Margarito. YA YA they were dead drained and damaged, but there was still a good possibility these guys come in at massive weight advantage and one punch and Pac is dead.
