    - - l'il floydy crack daddy say Oscar whooped l'l floydy.

    That's why Jr ditched the lucrative Oscar rematch where he publicly had a mental breakdown at a promotional presser where he was blowing his nose into his towel before wiping his drizzling mug while announcing his retirment..

    Manny took the purse on short notice while jumping 2 divisions to whoop the pantyhose off Oscar who promptly retired $25mil richer than before.

    Then l'l floydy unretire to make PreBalco Juan come up 2 divisions only to not make the contract weight, instead paying a penalty of ten$Thousand$.

    l'l floydy attracts a lot of soft boy luv to be certain...

    Exactly.

    Tommy's actions after both Shuler and Hagler's passing showed the true honour of the man.

    I have never had a penny but have survived so far by being frugal.

    There is nothing wrong with that instead of p*ssing it all away.

    A few times it did cost him but it's also why he is so admired, a pure warrior, gentleman and a truly decent man.
    You know what I always hated about boxing writers?

    They love to write about fighters who self-destruct and go broke.

    Then along comes Tommy Hearns who does it all correct.

    Instead of giving him credit for his maturity and wisdom, they instead called him CHEAP.

    If they gamble, drug, drink, or whore their money away they're 'classic' boxers and get ridiculed for it.

    If they are frugal and wise like Hearns, they're cheap. The boxer can't win.

    Tommy was 'cheap.' And I say all the power to him for being that guy.

    But this sport writers' duplicity always bugged me.

    Yeah that’s just not really true though.

    It wasn’t just the pressure it was also the fact that he was a lot physically stronger than mayweather on the inside so mayweather couldn’t muscle him around like he would do other guys

    Forces him to work harder because he gotta use his legs which uses more gas

    When he is physically stronger than guys like manny paquiao he could just tie them up and take a break lol

    I agree.

    To be honest though I didn't think that fight with Oscar was close at all. How that was a split decision baffles me.

    I agree with you and Joseph, though to me? I consider the weight class also a big factor. Floyd was simply his best at 130. Fighting at that weight he is on any top 5, on any given day and never realistically below top ten.
