If everyone throws punches all the time they would tire quickly. Appreciate the art and movement i.e defence etc.. it isn`t all KO and blood!
    People use to acuse Trinidad of cheating with his gloves, yet Morales makes Pacman use lesser gloves than his and not a peep, ever noticed how Trinidad was hacked on for low blowing and when Hopkins does it, its called art, everythings a double standard, people can be so blind, you need to admit that your not hating on "Trinidad fans or Tyson fans" but that you are a fan yourself, instead of pertending you are a boxing expert who knows it all.

      Ruiz holding all of the time does not display skill. A boxer using good movement and using the entire ring does....Rockin'

        and i agree, if gloves didnt matter so much why did morales's promoter put it in the contract, maybe pac coulda won, and i also agree hopkins is a ***** when it comes to fight refs, didnt he almost fly back to philly cause they wanted george corteze who is probally the best ref in boxing do one of his fights, hopkins gets these crappy refs that let him low blow and crap liek that. but boxing and staying away from a big puncher is what u r suppsoe to do.

          Not goin toe to toe with Trinidad doesn't make you a pussi...many fighters went toe to toe with Tito cuz they thought they could trade with him...and end up getting koed, But at the same time going toe to toe against someone that its known for his ko power makes the fighter look like a real warrior...

Like when Tito lost to Hopkins, some might say Hopkins was scared and it wasn`t a real win because he didn`t sit in the eye of the storm and take a beating! A boxing fan is a fan who appreciates the artistry of the game, anyone who just wants KO`s is a violence junky!
              idk if we saw the same fight cuz I saw Hopkins go toe to toe against Trinidad a few times...

                Yes he did, he did go toe to toe a few times and WON!!! He beat Tito up, totally, near shut out wasn`t it. Tito took a beating and lost.

                  that made no sence, im pretty sure a fighter would liek the W on the record and be called a ***** then getting KO'd and called a warrior. or at least i would loses dont help u unless yr paid to lose

                    I know...but they usually win some new fans, like what Morales did in the 12rd against Pac..
