      I respect your opinion but I think the majority of active and
      passive boxing fans prefer arrogant, charismatic, and ****y fighters like ali. Maybe i should just get over that there will never be a fighter like muhammad ali again!

        I think that an arrogant champion would draw more attention to the sport and increase its popularity.

        Oh and don't never say never, who knows, it could happen.

          Jesuschristo, I wish I could share your optimistim. If and when Byrd and
          ruiz meet, I hope byrd steps up and knocks ruiz out. He surely has the skills and would be making a loud statement if he could knock ruiz out
          because trust me no one on this forum wants to see another lackluster heavyweight championship bout.

            What it needs is LESS TALKING MORE FIGHTING.

              I actually cheered aloud when Rahman said he would stay in the ring and fight one of the champs. I agree we need that, not, "How did your fight go, champ?" "I do the good and my brother and I will be champions at the same time as well."

                and if Rahman wins another belt, and he can, he'll talk even more trash, which will raise the profile of the sport among the average fan

                  sounds all the same to me -- hype

                      fans love to hear the big dogs talk trash, that's not necessarily a good thing... People love Mike Tyson because he talks trash, bites ears, says < " i'm gonna eat lennox's children ", etc. i think the key factor, is can you back that **** up, if u can the fans love u
