    Theres no such thing as a 'bum' in boxing

    Plain and simple, when it comes down to it, it's 'human vs human.' Theres always a 25% chance BOXER A might win, 25% chance BOXER B will win, 25% it will be a draw, and a 25% chance it till be a no-contest. Thers no such thing as a 'bum' in boxing. Some of the posters post this word so freely as if the actual fighters are doomed from the start, when it comes down to it it only takes skill, determination, and heart. Just look at when Prescott knocked Khan out. If Khan would of won Prescott would of be called a 'bum' and people would of failed to notice what he was capable of. Unless you, yourself have in a prizefight before don't call any other man a 'bum.' A job is a job. Some just do it better than others. No hate thread just some I had to get off my mind.

                  Can you explain Prescott over Khan, Rahman over Lewis, Vera over Lee, Herrera over Willians, Douglas over Tyson, etc?

                    What if they're literally bums?

                    Like Jack Dempsey early in his career?
