        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.
        This is a good point...

            This is why this era of boxing is weak as **** and the old guard refuses to go out while 5-6 years past their prime(or 15 in the case of Hopkins).....
