      He must hate Ali then and what he did to him in Zaire.

        I don't think he hates Ali.

        But watch him do James Toney fights, for example. He never liked Toney's style. Now HBO have Kellerman who errs in another direction. Kellerman has given some horrendous scores in favor of defensive fighters.

          Squeal... you did not address the issue.

          In what way is "Floyd is more skilled than Ali" a ridiculous statement?

          Roger didn't talk about stripes, about career achievements, about any of that. He said "skilled".

            Power is not a skill. Chin is not a skill,

            Agreed?

                How the hell is power not a skill? Please explain that to me.

                  Not really. He saw what a great talent Mayweather was in his younger days, he could have been an idol, the world over with his skills but he's possibly the least likable sportsman I've seen in my lifetime. the talent is without the question, the public persona is definitely questionable.

                    You're correct. I've watched non-stop Floyd fights this morning and can't remember with fights had George in them.

                      George did the N'dou fight and the second Castillo...
