Haters keeping him alive, at their expense

I believe this to be the truth. I mean look at what he's digressed to basically a circus act. Fighting 120 lb kickboxers and youtubers.

Manny is right in his footsteps wtf you on about, they earned the right to make easy money off their name, if you want to rubbish one then rubbish both.

Mccallum is one of my top 5 favorite fighters all time. No one wanted anything to do with him. That includes Hearns, Hagler, and Duran as well hahaha. So you're right about that one. I don't buy into the hype of Leonard ducking Pryor. it's the same with Bowe ducking Lewis. Just as your post stated, one or 2 vids don't tell the whole story. Pryor was offered the fight just as Lewis was offered the fight TWICE with Bowe and turned it down prior to Bowe throwing that worthless azz WBC belt in the trash where it belongs to this day.

I listened to a story about Pryor not so long ago that mentioned the details I,ll see of I can find it not even sure who was telling it, and Im not saying duck I hate that word in boxing, they have many reasons why a fighter is avoided or a fight doesn't get made and its not the way fans perceive it with great fighters.

Manny will do the same if he can get the money, at some point you need to stop the hate and just thank them both for giving us a chance to see them, they were both truly great fighters.

Nonsense.

Certain boxing fans, may USE a loss on a fighters record to discredit a fighter.

But when you honestly look at the general public? The general public switch up real quick.

A fighter can lose, then win again and go on a run of fights 'And they will not care about that loss'.

Floyd Mayweather Junior has retired, his legacy has not ruined the sport of boxing.

It was Carl Froch who stated 'The reason why sometimes fights don't happen these days, is not because of the promoters entirely. It is down to the fighters'.

Top Fighters these days have more individual power and say in who they will fight 'And if most fighters can make things easier for themselves they will, and I don't think people can really criticism them for that'.

But that type of attitude in the game, is going to effect the sport.

I just think it is a individual thing, some fighters innately like challenging themselves beyond their limits 'They push their limits'.

And then there are some fighters, who are more reserved 'It is up to the fighters, on how they want to navigate in the game'.

Floyd Maweather Junior did challenge himself, and not every fight for him was easy 'But he was undefeated' etc.
