Did I say that? In the 90's it was STILL a popularity contest like I just told Chups. Roy won it. Sweet Pea deserved it. |

If it was a popularity contest then Oscar would have won. Who was more popular than Oscar for the whole decade that had "boxing in a choke hold"? So it was clearly not a popularity contest. You can say Pea deserved it, but Pea was only great for half of the decade. Roy was great for a little over half of the decade. Yes both had a case one guy won. So to try and diminish the award by calling it a popularity contest is quite retarded since the guy who won actually earned it and deserved it. And, the same thing would have been for Whitaker if he would have won it. You didn't say it but you insinuated that Pac only won it because he it was a "farce and a popularity contest" when he actually won it because he earned it and deserved it. |
