    These fighters are not carrying themselves as champions..

    Seriously, you got all these former and current champions going on shows these shows on BlogTalkRadio ( no disrespect to ALLBOXING247 and props to him for contacting them) but they're so desperate for attention. I mean who really cares about those talk shows? Tommy is a former world champion, fought the likes of Lennox Lewis and George Foreman, then he goes on a talk radio show that no one listens to. Then we have a top P4P fighter, Mayweather, going on USTREAM showing his house, etc.

    I think all these boxers should know better how to act and carry themselves as champions.

        Are you suggesting former and current boxers should avoid requests from a fan/host to discuss the sport with them? I really appreciate them doing interviews.

        Would you rather they stay completely away from all attention?

          Boxing needs both the bad boys as well as the nice guys to keep things interesting.

          **** talking is a time honored tradition in boxing over 100 years old!

          I would hate for every pre-fight to go like Klitschko-Briggs. I'd rather have some legit bad feelings towards each other like DLH-Mayorga, Haye-Harrisson ect.

          It's just more fun.

          I was watching Rocky III today on us TV. Clubber Lang was an ATG heckler.

              Why do you care? If you don't care then don't listen to the talk shows.. the world doesn't revolve around you. This is boxing, you watch them fight not to b*tch about what they do outside the ring.

                whats wrong with giving back to the fans?

                Now, charging $3000 to come to someones house and play fight night for 10 minutes, that is pretty disgraceful...

                    I don't think it has to do anything with being cool. What other athletes in other sports do you see doing **** like that? They should know how to carry themselves better and not go on the kind of shows Charlie Z or the ones you do. No disrespect to you though, it doesn't have to do anything with you but props to you for actually being able to get them in your show.
