      I hate the A-side mentality, but at the end of the day, it's not like someone put a gun on anyone's head to take a fight...they sold their athletic integrity for a payday....I would respect Golvokin more if he had had Alvarez stripped...If he had, Canelo wouldn't have a trinket to dangle in front of Khan and would lose a lot of money fighting any other fighter(except maybe Cotto).

      Besides Sam Langford at 5'7'' beat much larger men...if you know how to fight you can beat them......

      I'm not saying weakening an opponent is good, it's for pu55ies actually, but selling your ass for a payday is being a whore, so there. Two wrongs really.

          Then you factor in that these same weenie fans say belts don't matter anymore, and it makes even more sense to do away with divisions. We don't need champions anymore, we can just count up the dollars the fighter made to determine who is the best, right?
          LOOL man, you're spot on and I hope the fans you are alluding to are in the minority...however they are the majority of this forum.

              As you can see, the people this thread was intended for, steered clear.
