    Get real man.
    Then why do you criticize Floyd for coasting to the victory for that kind of money?

    I agree that I would do anything for $20 million.

    I am just calling you out on **** you have said before that is completely inconsistent with this, or is that not okay?

      Would you get butt ****d for 20mil? I'd fight Tyson for 20 mil...First jab and im taking a dive. Though I doubt Tyson would need throw jabs with no talent fighters like us...Best hope is he hits you with a hook to the side of the head.. No uppercuts, straight crosses.

        Haha I prolly gonna take a dive like the Black Rhino, but I think a Tyson jab gets to me first. Still I'm gonna face Mike Tice straight up, but really who cares if you're gonna fek Beyonce in your own personal jet later?

          Or do a line of coke out of Jessica Alba's ass crack... that's how I'd spend my $20 mil.

            presnet mayweather.

            maybe in his earlier days he didnt run AS MUCH but hes still a runner...

            you want a warrior look at the likes of modern day warriors like:
            Arturo Gatti
            Diego Corrales (RIP)
            Edison Miranda
            Kelly Pavlik
            Miguel Cotto
            etc.

              Funny thing is, he did the opposite of run against Gatti and Corrales.

              He boxes and moves, not runs, and he has only done that in 2 fights (in their entirety, all fights have some boxing and moving).

                I was about to say no fighter should be called a coward, but then, I remember Bruce Seldon against Tyson, and I'm not so sure anymore...

                  Even a boxer whose style is to hit and run is putting themselves into a physically dangerous situation by fighting. And even a fighter who runs all nights has done several things which require extraordinary courage: Got in the ring to spar for the first time. Got in the ring for their first amateur fight. Got in the ring for their first pro fight.

                  Until you've walked to the ring, gone up the steps, looked across at your opponent and waited for the bell, you have no idea how frightening an experience it is. So whether or not they've run away for fifty fights they've still had to overcome fear for their first fight, and that takes courage.

                    you think it takes balls to get in the ring for money and run for 12 rounds? anybody would do that. it takes balls to really put your life on the line by going toe to toe and taking some hits to give them back.

                      In a Playboy Magazine interview with Gay Talese, Floyd Patterson once described himself as a coward.
