[Daylyt]

Mike Tyson on his WBC convention speech said Duran is the reason he bacame a boxer and had me thinking, all these bad ass fighters looked up to other bad ass fighters, now that being a coward is becoming cool in boxing is this sport headed into a safety first era where we might never get out of again?

Duran made boxing machismo. Now we have the Algieri's, the Floyd's, the Malinaggi's, the Cubans, the Alexander's, the Amir's. Catering to the modern man I guess!
