    Does anyone get any credit in Boxing anymore? Excuse Paradise

    If a boxer wins people make excuses left and right. Here are some of the more common excuses people make. Seems boxing has turned into a female like bitching and moaning over everything.

    1.Boxer was drained
    2.Boxer was past his prime
    3.Boxer was a bum or overrated
    4.Boxer was rusty
    5.Boxer was injured
    6.Boxer did not train properly
    7.Boxer is moving up or down in weight class
    8.Boxer was not fighting in his weight class
    9.Referee was bias
    10.Boxer got cut
    11.Boxer got lucky

    I am sure i am missing more excuses. It seems no fighter now a days get any credit for anything they do.

    In most cases number 2 isn't an excuse...

    Beating Roy Jones now aint the same as beating him in the 90's...

    Same goes wit Evander...

      No matter what happens in a fight, there is an excuse for it.

          cats who are fans of boxing and not ****riders of certain boxers will always give cred when it's due.

              That seems to be the case nowadays. No one gives credit where credit is due anymore, just hate.
