Thats what I'm saying. Respeck Mannix.

Tired of these HBO fanboys or PBC fanboys or whoever fanboys acting like their guy is killing it while the other guy is sucking dog **** meanwhile I'm thinking all these cats are halfa$$ing it.

Pretty honest piece.

He is 100% right. The fighters today are coddled, and if anyone questions it we hear the same ole "we risk our lives and well being every time we step through the ropes" . Sure they are not taking the risk against the Salka's etc, it is the salka's and Wades who get battered by far superior fighters.

There are countless jobs out there that are risky. I almost lost my life over 20 years ago and still suffer from the aftermath. We all chose the job we took, we assume the risks.

Thank you. The funny thing is all these guys cry about the risks they take and then want to fight a guy who has no chance in hell and who is actually the one at risk. Meanwhile the guy at risk is getting paid peanuts. They're so full if **** and dont want to admit that they're coddled pu$$ies.

They're inspired by Mayweather srs

Health comes first

Very good read.

[PulpFriction]

Danny Garcia won't like this article one bit, especially the part where his dad wonders why top fighters would fight each other when they can make good money facing lesser competition.

[BOXEO _]

Truth bombs.

People want to be like Mayweather, but they forget he was a P4P stalwart for a decade before his first huge payday against Oscar. What have y'all done? Beat one decent fighter?
