    I agree with Meldrick Taylor.. Fought his heart out, traded with big punches to put on a show for the crowd.. he could've just jabbed and ran and won fights that way, but that wasn't Meldrick..

    Must've broken his heart when he lost that Chavez fight... that was his moment of greatness, only to be stolen with 2 seconds left...

      I definitely do NOT feel sorry for Mike. When he lost to Williams, I felt horrible for him. Seriously, being from Louisville, the ONLY edge Tyson had in our arena was being an American, so everybody in there wanted to see him blow Williams out. But when he lost, I'll never forget the feeling. I felt like the Louisville Cardinals had just lost a home game. That's seriously what it felt like. Weird, huh?

      But after seeing Tyson do everything in his power to win against McBride, and I mean EVERYTHING (he cheated like a mother in that fight), I lost whatever little respect I had left for him. I thought Larry Merchant was spot on in what he said about Tyson after the Cotto-Abdullaev fight, was it?

        Meldrick Taylor- Any other ref would have let that fight continue.
        Kermit Cintron- Anyone with a pink squiggly thing in their head could tell he was not ready for Margarito.

          The G-Man, for obvious reasons.

          Ali, because he has Parkinson's, that sucks.

            I always thought that was the big rumor why Roy stayed down so long, because apparently after Johnson knocked him silly he was so done he uncoiled a brown snake in his boxing trunks.

              fighters i feel sorry for:

              Arturo Gatti - i almost cried when mayweather destroyed him.

              Andrew Golota - he could have been one of the best HW of this era.

              Gerald McClellan - permanent brain damage, blind, deaf... nuf said.

              Meldrick Taylor - if only he could've lasted 2 seconds longer...

              Mike Tyson - its sad to see him reduced to a pathetic shell since 2002.

              Rid**** Bowe - two things were his downfall: Rock Newman and his weight problem.

              Evander Holyfield - please retire already.

              i will eventually feel sorry for mayweather. just watch, all this carrying of the sport will put him under scrutinizing pressure and he'll choke, lose, and have to deal with the fallout. im not hoping this will happen, but it has happend to every great champion (all save rocky marciano), and it will happen to PBF too.

                  Floyd trains too hard to ever get truly distracted. His life is a joke, he's not a real man in any sense of the word, but in that ring, he is something special. Floyd takes boxing more serious than any fighter in the world today, and he will not lose.

                    saying he will not lose is like saying that the sun will not set. losing happens. everybody loses: ali, louis, robinson, hagler, leonard (both), johnson, dempsey, duran, chavez, tyson, lewis, marciano (the plane beat him... i know its just wrong). everybody loses, floyd is no exception.

                      Personally, I'm not one of those guys who says "so and so is the greatest and can never be surpassed". I think Mayweather can be the greatest fighter ever, and I'd love for him to do it. If he stays undefeated until he retires, I say he's a logical shoe-in for greatest fighter of all time from the bottom of my heart. Long as he keeps doing his thing, dude's untouchable.
