    why do boxing fans appreciate a good loser over a great winner? I will explain

    Fighters like ,Ali, Pernell Whitaker, Roy Jones, now rigondeaux, ward and Mayweather were and are tabbed as boring, or runners during the prime of their careers because no one could beat them by employing the definition of boxing
    Hit and don't get hit
    While face first brawlers like Gatti who never was great and in the past graziano make the ibhof easy, and Naseem Hamed cleaned out featherweight from 96 til the 2000 isn't in, McCallum didn't make the first ballot I believe and niccolino locche just made it last decade and he had over hundred of wins and like 4 loses.
    Either you gotta be humble, a puncher, and well marketed

    Stop penalizing fighters for being dominant with skills id tell Arum and HBO to suck it if I was rigondeaux.

        TS is just trying to lump as many big named black fighters for his troll thread to have more of a "significant" effect.

        feeble attempt at trying to add credibility to his OP.

          Fans wanna see a fight. This is why MMA took off so well. I myself dont care for it but it does display two combatants busting each other up badly.
          People dont wanna pay big bucks to see someone run around pot shots and clinching their way to victory. Watch Gatti Ward 1. Thats what they wanna see. Morrals Barrera 1 Bradley Prov....
          your point

                Be as fancy as you want to be, but go for the kill like Roy Jones used to!

He is an Argentine not black nor is hamed...as for Jones after he was the established p4p people called him boring cause no one could touch him til 35+......they Called Ali a coward and boring in the 60s do you guys follow boxing or certain boxers ?
