    The personality type is of little importance as long he's a winner, particularly with power.

    At least, for me.

      De La Hoya that guy has been a can since day one. They need some tough ***** sum ***** like Floyd Mayweather in the late 90s knocking guys like Angel Manfredy out left and right. I think Paul Williams can be baddest mayne on tha planet.

          There are plenty of stars in boxing, there are just no superstars. Guys like Oscar, and Tyson before him, and Leonard before him come around once every era. I think this era's superstar is up for grabs between a few select fighters.

              Floyd's trying so hard to be a baddass. It aint working. Such a wanna be. Ohh yah then again he's trying to be a fake smiling cute guy on Dancing with the stars.... He's so confused.

              Unfortunately we need both. Thats boxing. Good guys will help the image. Thats why people love people like SRR (even though he beat his wife) SRL Holyfield Lenox and DLH.

                To be on the up and up, Ray leonard's ex wife Juanita also accused Leonard of beating her as well. I'm just saying, pointing out Robinson's flaws and nobody else's is a bit shady. Not to mention the fact that Oscar dresses like a woman. Can't think of anything bad to say about Holyfield or Lewis though.
