    I posted basic facts. You say you don't care about their management skills, but those particular skills,

    are why they're broke.

    Nobody tells them to buy **** like exotic tigers and 100 room mansions
    .
    Exactly right, people here have no clue I swear. And, have a lot of female tendencies.

        i agree with you there

          It kills me that people who call themselves "boxing fans" would rather have fighters take on low risk/high reward type of fights. Then have them fighting the best fighters period.

            Great way to duck the crux of an entire discussion. Lame. :eyeroll:

            You can't seem to add **** to what's already been said, because your argument falls apart within a few sentences. How about simply agreeing or disagreeing, rather than waste everyone's time by chirping in with remarks about complaining, etc.

            Try it. Engage your brain for once.

What happened to wanting to unify a division, or to prove you are the best by fighting the best? That is why Oscar De La Hoya ruined boxing. Greedy bastards that don't give a **** about boxing fans.
                the realest **** i read here so far.

                  larry watches boxing because hes concerned about the health and welfare of the fighters.

                  I watch for the competition and give a **** what they do after their performance.

                    Yeah what relevance is their money management skills? When the chickens come home to roost the ''fans'' aren't there.

                    You're essentially saying the fans aren't responsible for their downfall which I don't disagree with. The fighters are essentially responsible for their bank balance if they spend a lot then it's their responsibility to make sure money is in the account............. Which leads to them chasing bigger pay checks.

                    That's how life works, the people who look up to you, admire you, don't cover ****, it's your responsibility to make that money.
