    Winky Wright
    Tony Thompson
    Luan Krasniqi

    there's others, I just can't think of them right now....
    all but Luan Krasniqi are black... are you implying something?

        Maybe thats why I hate him now, i use to like him when I was younger. Recently, he lets alot of crap fly out his mouth. He makes himself look like a ***** when he spews **** out about money, like the fans care how much money he makes. He's either really ******ed to let money talk fly out his mouth in boxing, or just doesn't give a **** if he has any fans.

          I could be wrong though, im the biggest Ali fan here and didnt come from a boxing family, I got into it myself so maybe im proof that im wrong?

          Im confusing myself today
          I see your point; young athletes today might think twice before pursuing boxing because of the fear of becoming like the frail, brain damaged Ali.
          Not only that. Alot of over-protective parents are thinking twice about enrolling their kids in boxing. Mainly because of Ali, but also with boxing related deaths such as Levander Johnson (which was not that long ago) and Duk Koo Kim.

          On that UFC spangled Sports Illustrated magazine, they pretty much agree that the UFC is a much safer sport than boxing... Even the NFL.

                Its not just the parents. In general, todays youth are much, much softer than the previous generations. They would much rather succeed at Ps3 than put in the hard work to succeed at boxing.............Rockin'

                    Guys like Mike Tyson and Zab Judah who act like street thugs no matter how much money they have.

                      Cory Spinks
                      Jermain Taylor
                      John Ruiz
                      Roy Jones JR.
                      James Toney

                      Roy and James should just give it up their time is up good fighters back in the days though. Cory and John arent boxers they run to much and Jermain for being middleweight champ hasnt done a whole lot to impress me after the lucky draw against wright.
