    Boxing, Unlike no other sport

    Why is that in boxing fans dont neccesarly enjoy or respect wins...i hear alot of people dogging floyd and other fighters like him and saying hes too safe and hes not crowd pleasing...now i can understand fans not liking him because of that but you got to respect the man for his wins...Other sports like basketball respect the spurs for being winners...their not neccasary out there running and gunning every team out of the gym like the Suns but they get the job done...their defensive and slow the ball down when it needs to be slown down...yet when Floyd wins these fights against bigger opposition people criticize him for it...if a guy is stronger than you wouldnt your game plan be to stay away from his punches?

    I hope you dont want to make boxing into the business mold as the NBA where your not allowed to lead by more than ten points. I guess everybody will turn off the game the deficit is more than 10.

    And it takes talent to make hockey as messed up as it is now. Seriously, not joking, it takes vision and talent.

    credit Mr. Gary Bettman for alot of this in both leagues. Sports mastermind, greatest thing that ever happend for the integrity of basketball and hockey, man of the people.

      Other sports do have teams/people getting criticized for being boring/playing safe...Chelsea from the british Premier league were constantly scrutinized for playing boring/defensive football, even though they won two consecutive league titles...

        if the integrity of sport is a 'matter of interest for the American people' as one senator or congressman put it they have alot more work and pressing issues to look at than steroids.
