        Holyfield was a HOF based on his resume at Cruiserweight alone. He's an ATG easily...

              runners guys who do it too much are a discredit to the sport of boxing and can never be 'great' champions. I dont care how many belts or promoters, media's, sanctioning organzations champion them.

                It's like taking advantage of the rules. Boxing is not and was never supposed to be that.

                Every fight doesn't have to be stand and trade but there's a line where dancing around the ring avoiding engagement is in excess.

                  apparently people are confusing running in the ring (gainer) with doing roadwork (running).
