    Ring Magazine Humor Thread: Latest: Different vibe on Pac & JMM's next fights = ha-ha

    In Ring's Top 100 ranking on their website:http://www.ringtv.com/blog/2651/ring..._in_the_world/

    Mentioning Pac's next fight in their "future" part: "Future: Shane Mosey on May 7. De****able."

    Mentioning JMM's next fight in their "future" part: "Future: Marquez, who may face fellow future hall of famer Erik Morales in April, seems as hungry and ambitious now as he ever has. Call him a late bloomer. "


    Hmmm...What's wrong with this picture? Please laugh at Ring with me and add your own Ring humor at your leisure.

    Gavin Evans said in an issue of The Ring a couple years ago that "David Haye is easily the fastest heavyweight since a prime Muhammad Ali"

          excerpt from Ring Magazine article "the anti wish list for 2011":

          Juan Manuel Marquez vs. Erik Morales: It’s looking increasingly likely that this repugnant mismatch will happen in April. And while I’m in favor of Marquez getting an easy paycheck, I hate that it has to come at the expense of a legendary warrior like Morales. Marquez is one of the five best fighters alive. Morales is a fringe contender at best nowadays. He belongs in the ring with a pound-for-pounder like Miley Cyrus belongs on stage with the Beatles. Good rule of thumb: If you can’t beat David Diaz at age 30, you shouldn’t be fighting Juan Manuel Marquez at age 34.

            It's dismissed because they then completely contradict their take on the fight by inferring it's just two good old future HOFers going at it because Marquez is just so ambitious as to make this fight AND in the same web page put down the Pac/Mosley fight for being "de****able"? ...Ummm...No? You're actually making it ...worse for them...right?
