    What would you rather be........

    A boxer that has made a name for himself through the old fashioned way of going through the rank, has won all the major world championships, numerous defences and is regarded by most fans as a legend but you havent made as much money from boxing as boxers who are not regarded to be as good as you


    ......... or a boxer that made a name hand picking opponents, making clever fights, fighting the right people at the right time, and has made himself a pile of cash but most fans know that he should of fought the better fighters and the fans think he was just after huge paydays.................


    I'd go for number two, because lets face it, you've still won the world championships, had a good boxing career and now can chill with ya cash!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    i'd go for #2, but I wouldn't be calling myself an ATG or a HOFer.

      The 1st is what boxing was,the later,is what boxing has become!!Sounds sooo familiar!!I'll tell u though,the first route would get u more money & respect,if ur tough enough!!The 2nd,probably gets u rich quicker,but if it's greed that drives u,the riches probably won't last,because it's obvious the kinda person u are!!

            Defo #1....I dont care about money enough to just have my mind on it....

            "A wise man should have money in his head, but not in his heart"

            Thats the way i see it....Your basicly asking something along the lines of ... would you real or fake...

              Option 1. You go into boxing knowin it's a tough, violent profession and you have to take risks. Do it and the $ will come in time, along wit gr8ness.
