    Look, man. Many of these fans of cheaters are always going to make excuses for them. You and I know it isn't right, but they will always come up with something. I agree. Cheating is wrong no matter what. it is never admirable to cheat even when you get away with it and Hopkins and Mayweather are bad for the sport. Mayweather pus on the worst fight of the century and these clowns still give him praise. He can never do no wrong....EVER!

    Kind of funny while sad at the same time.

        Floyd Mayweather. There's literally no one logical out there who would deny that Floyd is a master boxer if I asked them right now.

          he clinched a decent amount vs pac but his main cheat code in that fight was bending below the waist. he switched it up! what a master boxer

                    Marquez started to take alot of punishment later in his career. He's paid the price for choosing not to tie up at times.
