    Is it a shame that the faces of boxing are cowards?

    It really hurts me as a fan to know that when a casual fan or the average person thinks of boxing today they think of floyd mayweather or oscar de la hoya. This needs to change

          if he was that would make


          All light heavyweight coward for no johnson fights / rematches *(try me)*
          Jones a coward for no johnson rematch
          Lacy a Coward for no goin after Calzaghe
          Calzaghe wanting to retire a coward with no pavlik, and no kessler rematch
          Mora a coward for not jumping on Taylor
          Wlad a coward for not jumping on Haye
          Margarito a coward for not responding to Williams.
          tyson a coward for not fighting foreman...

          So don't be a ***** all your life... just understand that certain fights will be made just like margarito wanted to fight oscar before he even mentioned a williams fight or cotto rematch.

            You are dumb, Oscar and Floyd put their life on the line everytime they step in the ring. They have been fighting since they were 10 years old. After 20 years in the ring Oscar or Floyd have the right to pick there opponent, and because they pick the fight which makes them the most money, you call them cowards. I call you a *****.

              Jones and Lacy for sure arent Cowards. Why get a rematch when you already lost and got embarrassed. They had their shot. Calzaghe is a coward in my eyes for fighting euro scrubs and ducking the best. He fought Hopkins past prime and will fight Jones Past Prime. Mora is not a coward for taking just as hard a fight against Forrest. Wlad is not a coward, who is David Haye, what has he done in heavyweight boxing? Margarito and coward in the same sentence will not ever exist. Ask Miguel Cotto. Mike Tyson was an animal who had to regard for human life

                plain and basic common sense. alot of the casual boxing fans i know so they hate boxing and its boring because they only watch maywaether dlh roy jones or the heavyweights. i have to guide them by telling them to watch some fights of some true mexicans and they will understand why boxing is such a great sport. it is a shame that the lesser known fighters who are the ones really giving the fans there moneys worth do not get to be seen by so many potential boxing fans. look at the katsidis-diaz fight. if people knew what to expect from this fight they would all watch but right now its getting very little hype and thats unfortunate that so many people will miss this epic war.

                  Please don't compare these two. Oscar is officially a *****... You can't say the same about Floyd, at least one can understand what he did and he was dead honest about it. He never tried to be the nice guy, he never misled you anywhere!

                  Also fighting Ricky Hatton (avoiding younger Cotto, Williams and Margarito), a guy naturally heavier than him JUST CAN'T COMPARE to the totally ***** move of Oscar fighting flyweight Manny Pacquiao and calling it "personal". Not because i'm a fan (i obviously am a long time PBF fan) but you need to be fair.
                  On a second note about Floyd having avoided those i mentioned, apart from Margarito a long time before then, none of those other fighters, Williams or Cotto really called Floyd out openly. Hatton did.

                  Oscar really stands out of the pack here, for the wrong reasons. It's like a thief calling your place to announce a robbery and you not only agree to that but also give him the nicest date for the event "because it's his last time". To be fair to Oscar he only very recently started being a *****. I figure he predicts his Golden Boy is gonna go down eventually (when his name fades, together with Mosley and Hoppkins) and he needs a nice last income so just he can try something else...
