      Shane did not start out at Super feather weight and he skipped Junior Welterweight.

      I would like to know what the point of your post is, because you once again sound like a cheerleader.

        and the knowledge they gained in a losing fight to use for the future, it's called experience and it's the basis of your resume. it doesn't matter if you succeed at everything, it's what you learn along the way. i know burner will never have a business, hire a good employee, or be successful at all in life based on this conversation right here. poor guy is obese...

          That's one name though. No one name defines a person's resume. Calzaghe's level of competition is very comparable to Emmanuel Augustus.

          Shane's resume isn't better than Floyd's BECAUSE he lost to Winky and Forrest, they are just part of the level of competition that is consistently higher than what Floyd has faced, which is why Shane has a better resume.

            I agree, but I don't know how these boxing historians or experts would define a boxer's resume. I would be interested to hear it from someone who has been around for a while and has always watched the sport.

            When I hear the word resume, experience does comes to mind. Regardless if you fail or succeed, the point is that you have been there.

              So you have to start at SF to move up?..lol.


              Shane has been at 135, 147 and 154. Call me when he wins a title at 160 and 168.

              You said Floyd doesnt go through Shanes fights undefeated and I said he wont win a title in a 5th weight class.

                    That's where rankings and discussion of how good a fighter comes in. The resume is not part of that, that's where a record comes into play.
