I guess for every new fighter that comes they will be downplayed because they weren't born earlier and cannot compare to the guys who were... nothing else to talk about.. thanks for the conversation, have a good one
    So someone doesn't agree with you so you throw your toys out of the pram and stomp your feet?

    So the 1000's of fighters who don't use these tactics are "NEW" fighters? Do you not get sick of lying to yourself?

    How the hell is Ward downplayed? Most think he gives even Prime Roy a run for his money and most pick him to beat Toney. Just accept that he cannot box cleanly like a James Toney and be as effective. That is the truth. Maybe Toney wouldn't have dropped decisions to the lesser fighters in his career had he fought more like Ward but we would have been robbed out the best fighter to watch ever.

    I didn't question Wards level, only his style and you get pissed. Will it make you feel better if I reveal I think GGG is boring also?

    So just like GGG/Rios fans think we have to enjoy them, now I have to enjoy fighters like Ward/Molina. You are a loser.

      Just admit it, you are a tribal cheerleader. Comparing BJS with Crawford? Come on.
      Frampton is the one fighter for Ireland I've ever supported.........I cheered when Rigo smashed Willie Casey. Go look at me in any thread laughing at people for cheering for fighters who were born on the same patch of dirt as them.

      Frampton fights a lot like Cotto and Chaves...two other of my favorite fighters who aren't Irish...imagine that???? lOl, like i said you're a loser.

      Yes BJS beat a tall rangy world champion....With one punch Knockout power...>Completely shut him out and dropped him twice...... I get that Postol has just beaten NSB's favorite hypejob with a punch to the eye..,But stop acting like he didn't go 12 with Hank Lundy....

        Castillo......And he's far better than anyone Rigo has ever fought

          We need to see his skill level against a top notch opponent. It's easy to run circles around the inferior. He's a "not yet" for me.

            Oh, he does a lot more than "leading people into his left hands through beautiful footwork" whatever the **** that means.

            he doesn't have a right hook or uppercut...barely has a jab...Uses his lead hand for control and that's it...
            Southpaw. And I will simply dismiss your comment about his uppercut as simple ignorance.

            Yes he beat Donaire like 4 years ago. And show me one person who isn't a hater who doesn't give Rigo his props.....They say he is boring, No one says he isn't skilled. Also learn to read, Never once did I compare Quigg to those fighters, I compared Frampton's win over Quigg to Rigo's unspectacular wins.
            You evidently since you still want to believe that Frampton and Rigo belong in the same category. And you're right, shutting down a top 5 p4p fighter on your 12th fight isn't spectacular at all.

            Just admit it, you are a tribal cheerleader.

                No Rigo does not have a Right Hook or Uppercut...>His only right hook is when he leaves his left arm fully extended to draw the opponent in then he shoots the hook...It doesn't work against anything but Bums so he hasn't used it since like his 8th fight. He also has no RIGHT uppercut you illiterate moron.

                Tell me then...Go one. Please. Tell me what else he does in the ring.....

                    2005 Floyd would beat anyone (p4p).Andre slower and doesn't have good reach, TC is great at all but he's little slower, his defense not as sharp as Floyd, Rigo... i'm sure Floyd would outsmart him, every Rigo's opponent played his game but against Floyd Rigo would play Floyd's game.He will need attack him and Floyd will counter him.
