Sitting on your wins doesn't cut it and it doesn't guarantee you can't get ktfo in your next fight. He dares compare himself to Robinson and I bet some of you here are even foolish enough to accept it. He's created such a myth of invincibility that he doesn't need to fight for people to accept him as better than anyone he'll face. He's won before even signing a contract.
All he really has to do to sustain his status is to fuel the public's praise by putting on an excellent performance every couple of years and he's back on top for a couple more. Quite franlkly it's marketing ingenuityLast edited by deevel79; 05-26-2008, 09:32 PM.

it is a helluva a way of avoiding fighters u dont wanna fight & a good way of not having to fight actively and make lots of cash
just playing devils advocate here

Originally posted by deevel79 View PostNothing has been signed as of yet. As a matter of fact, the word is, they are having a hard time getting Floyd to sign the contract. A few weeks ago, Floyd was on a radio station, and stated that he is retired from boxing because he no longer wants to deal with the stress associated with it. These are words that came directly out of his own mouth.
