From the old days of Ali and even before.Boxing was a big thing because of the pre match hype,the press conferences.It was a total package.This is why I respect the old school people even people like Tony who have nothing good to say about anyone except themselves.
Just read what Mayweather Sr said about Hatton:
"I'm teaching him still to be aggressive but to be smart and not come in and take three punches for one.
"I said he was nothing but a punching bag against Floyd Jnr and I don't take that back, you saw it with your own eyes.
"But now the man's moving his head and he's making the other guy miss while he's punching.
"I've been very surprised how quick Ricky's learnt. He amazed me, especially being the type of fighter he is.
"He's a slugger but he started picking up the new stuff so quick, I couldn't believe it.
"You've got to keep working at the trade and keep getting better."
Is it good to trash talk in boxing or do you prefer people like Cotto who say little?What is it about boxing that you find exciting?
