The YOU said "so only people like you should be able to comment or write about Boxing? Very shortsighted my friend. And yes, I do feel I could have a place in your conversation."
So NO, I am not grandstanding..I am just replying that you would have NO place in THAT conversation regardless of how much boxing you watch. It's not an insult to you by me saying that, either, so please don't feel like I am trying to ffend you because I am not. It is merely that many, many fans of boxing do not truly realize what type of boxing knowledge comes with actually being in that ring for a pro fight.
i already apologized if I came across wrong. Pointless might be abit harsh..but I certainly agree I couldn't have insight on that situation. When I say I could be in a conversation, I was referring to in general. I guess I didn't read the post as thouroughly as I should have. And then I got a little pissed by what I thought were ****ish comments by you.
Of course I realize the knowledge you get from being in the ring is unmatched. Initially I don't think that is what I said..or least meant. My point was meant to be on "non-fighters" having credible opinions on Boxing. I probably didn't pontificate well enough.
apologies

Reggie Johnson was robbed against James Toney IMO, he then won a very close fight against Steve Collins (maybe got abit of a gift against Collins, but made up for being robbed against Toney). He also beat the heavy-handed prospect Lamar Parks, who was a real good prospect.Last edited by Fordabckup; 01-01-2006, 06:00 PM.Comment

Originally posted by LondonRingRulesFirst off, Rafael might be a complete idiot, but at least he's literate. What grade are you in junior, 7th?
2nd, I told you to PAY ATTENTION. Floyd ain't done squat the past few years and like Roy fans started to turn on Roy for fighting garbagemen, what few fans Floyd have are starting to turn on him and reporters like Rafael are doing him a favor by ragging on him.
As far as Floyd calling out Hatton, well big whoop. Though Floyd makes you wet your pants, calling out Winky and Hatton means nothing if Floyd ain't got the cents enough to add up the finances. Wink is the draw, not Floyd, so nobody is gonna give Floyd 80% of the purse to watch Winky beat him down. Floyd won't travel to England to fight Hatton where all the money is. Floyd wants to give Hatton short money to travel to the US to fight in a smaller promotion? Promoters are laughin' at Floyd, and I'm laughin' at Floyd and YOU. Floyd don't really want the money anyways. All he does is give it to his lawyers to bail him out of trouble.
So now Hatton is a free agent and being courted by HBO and may well come to America where the fight can be made, IF Floyd takes short money. He ain't the draw and the best fighter he's beat the past 3 years is Gatti who ain't the class of the division. Floyd might be the best fighter in the world, but nobody cares anymore except Zabby who might be hungry enough to knock some sense into PurtyGal!Comment

Promoters control boxing and they will determine who fights who with the proper fighter's signatures. Floyd is a promoter's nightmare. Hatton is a promoter's dream. Surely even a kid can do the math!
Moreover, why does Hatton have to travel to the states which he is willing to do if the money is right, but somehow Floyd remains stateside for less money? Follow the money Junior. When Floyd gets to be as big a money fighter as he is a legend in your mind maybe he can make some decent money fights.
In the meantime, if you want to go back in history, then go back with Iron Mike. Nobody dominated any division in the history of boxing like Iron Mike, but guess what? It don't mean squat in making a match today. If history was worth anything than Ali would still be fighting and pulling down 40 mil per fight.
Get real, nobody cares about Floyd unless he does something NOW!.Comment
