[SIZE="3"]1.Nobody is claiming that he will reach the heights that Ali has reached. It was a different time back then and Ali was more then just a sports figure.

which is exactly why i said "and for the poster who is getting ready..". like i said, there is ALWAYS someone who will make the comparison and i was just wanted to end that **** there.

2. Just like Ali copying Curious George, Floyd does the same buy is inspired by guys from the Hip Hop culture, like his friend 50cent. Times have changed BUT the intention is still the same, to piss people off and sell more tickets.

I agree with you but the comparison usually states that Ali was generally hated and now is a icon and the same will happen to Floyd which is obviously not gonna happen.

3. Floyd has had plenty of good exciting fights, not all were boring and whoever says different is plain lieing. Ali himself has had more then a couple of 15 round snoozers, believe that.

He did early in his career but now that has reached the pinnacle and has more eyes on him, his excitement output has dropped off. He even admitted it himself. And its the casual fans who say this. We all know casual fans are idiots but unfortunately, the future of boxing as an entertainment business is in their hands.

4. How come we can't ever come to some common ground or are we just arguing for the sake of arguing to keep going like two school girls?

you started it.

you started it.

Taking out the comparisons between Floyd & Ali as worldwide figures out of the equation, can we agree that both were hated by some people for the exact same reasons? Talking down to their opponents, proclaiming themselfs as the greatest at a young age while still having alot to accomplish.

Can we agree on that?

Did anyone hate Ali for being a runner and cheater in the ring and a ducking businessman outside of it?

[Vladimir303]

go for it.

Is that a Yes?

[Sin City]

that's the fake Floyd right there.. the real Floyd thinks he ownes the club and can smack anyone around. The real Floyd nearly no one likes here in Vegas, the real Floyd beat his wife and hat to settle out of court. Funny how many different personalities this cat has..

Sure they did, Ali at his prime did alot more dancing around then Floyd ever did. As far as the business, no but Ali got cheated by others regarding his business. Floyd learned from those mistakes made in the past by guys like Ali.
