    Its the same people who criticize fighters for tough fights that dont understand why these fighters all expect 1million dollars a fight. Im glad Kotelnik-Alexander was a good fight, but I seem to be in the minority on that. When 1 or 2 guys completely dominate a division with no competition we criticize them(Klitschkos), but when we have a stacked division like JWW we criticize fighters when they dont completely dominate everyone. Its silly really.

      Segura will be fighting for the third time, And most likely fight a fourth time this year.
      Not only is Montiel being active. And, might fight 5 times in a 12 month span, maybe.... The man is doing it against elite level comp...

      He is a G. Hats off to the man.

        I always felts upsets, and guys who are not suppose to win, win or be competitive a good thing. It just brings new blood. And, there is nothing wrong with that.

          I completely agree. It seems that in competitive fights, we call the favorite a hype job and unless he completely dominates a fights without getting hit, we seem to critique his smallest faults

          Great post

            Yes people complain that Devon-Kotelnik was competitive when it shouldnt have been, expecting a complete blowout, and then when the Klits do have complete blowouts, they complain.

              Another thing is if non-American boxers begin to dominate a division it seems that the Americans lose interest with that division.

              Market value drops. I'm sure Tyson earned a lot more being champ than Wlad or Vitali are getting around 20 years later.

                I agree that not being active enough is the biggest problem in boxing, by far.

                Btw, MMA fighters under UFC contract also average around 2 fights a year.

                    You don't seem like a real boxing fan. Most of your threads and comments are either

                    1) bitching about one thing or another, such as someone putting you on ignore

                    2) about ************ (but whenever a Zionist supporter confronts you, you become weak and wishy-washy )

                      I ain't gonna start an e-beef, boy. Its pathetic.

                      You're the one with the beef pal.

                      Second, I don't get weak and wishy washy on *********. I support the ************ directly. I have friends in ********* I help out.

                      You are no friend of *********. you just hijack it to spread some NWO propaganda to whitewash real *********** activists.

                      I got phone numbers, addresses and bank account details for *********** charities, teachers, journalists and aid workers.

                      What you got?
