Really... so that's what you call boxing, huh? Funny, because I just watched "When We Were Kings" last night and you cannot compare the lack of will Mayweather and De La Hoya put on display to, oh, say, the Ali and Foreman fight that I watched. After all, Mayweather and De La Hoya are supposed to be two of boxing's all time greats, right? Wasn't this fight supposed to rejuvenate boxing and bring it back to the forefront of sports. Heh, it couldn't have been much more of a failure to do so!
Now Pavlik and Miranda... that was boxing, and one hell of an entertaining fight. If you tell me that you find a match with two guys circling and slapping hands for 12 rounds as exciting as the Pavlik-Miranda fight... well, I gotta raise an eyebrow.
Seriously, calling that a legit, entertaining match worthy of ticket and PPV prices is part of the reason this sport is in such dire straits and you should be ashamed of yourself for being duped so easily.
Anyway, this thread isn't about the Mayweather-De La Hoya fight that most would agree wasn't even close to living up to the hype, sorry to go off-topic.
