Ashy Larry strikes again,.
You know there hasn't been an exciting black fighter in the last 15 years when scum like Ashy Larry have to dumb down the sport to "boring winners" and "exciting losers".

thats the way it is
Mayweather will be remembered as the best of his generation, clearly won majority of his fights, all time great, and will be spoke about in the same sentence as roy jones, whitaker, leonard, JCC...he already is
Only people who remember Gatti is HBO who pumped him up and his hard core fans
I'd rather be the all time great, boring winner.....than the good fighter who is exciting but lost to every elite fighter he faced and a club fighter in Ward.
different strokes, different folks
IM a winner and get motivated and inspired by it. Watching a dust up is fun sometimes but since I watch boxing for the tactics and technique, I get upset watching pros be reckless and careless. Gatti vs Ward is fun to watch but Gatti was ******. He fought with his heart and not his head. The time he wasted fighting on Ward's level, had he had his head together and just boxed like Buddy told him, he could have got a shot at Hatton or Tsyzu or other big names.
I been watching boxing over 20 years.....i hardly get overly excited, i watch the fights to learn

I could list any boring fighter and you are going to say they are exciting cause youve realised youve backed yourself into a corner and made yourself look dumb, again.

Originally posted by chris232 View Post'I been watching boxing over 20 years.....i hardly get overly excited, i watch the fights to learn' What a depressing way of following a sport. Bemoaning those who actually get excited about exciting fighters.
I like high level matches with a mix of action, varying styles against each other and a skill display like Leonard vs Benitez, mayweather vs Judah, Whitaker vs Chavez, Toney vs Jirov, cRAWFORD VS Gamboa
what you may consider exciting, may not be exciting to other fans.....2 fights standing square just winning shots doesnt excite me...i like ebb and flow, see the adjustments mid fight and what the other fighter will do, things like that.
i dont get a hard on from seeing street fights in a boxing ring...I can hit the southside in my town to watch guys who dont use skill to win fights.

Originally posted by chris232 View Postah yes, i will trawl through every thread to find someone calling them boring. I watch the fights mate, i dont need someone elses opinion to validate my own. They are boring as you know, devon alexander can be added to the list too, very boring,B level and no fans. Sergio mora too.

Or be called exciting, take tons of punishment and lose??
False dilemma.
You can be the exciting winner too. You just don't have to clinch, don't have to foul.
