All I'm saying is it's an exhibition and nothing more. And I'm far from the only one who thinks that.

I think lotsa dudes are losing their mind over this bs 50-0 perfect record thing is the only real problem cuz no one should care about this fight so much when they don't usually care about uncompetitive fights that happen on virtually every card that happens anywhere on the globe.

The names mean more than the numbers, 50-0 is just a number. Most fighters pad their records and who knew Jeff Horn (outside of Australia) before he fought Pacquiao?

Few are 'losing their minds' about this. It's just the majority opinion that this is nothing more than a glorified exhibition fight. And BTW, this is FAR from the upcoming prospect vs journeyman fight you describe.

The record was set by Chavez sr.. he's far from it

That's not the record, it's retiring at 50 wins undefeated. Chavez didn't retire undefeated.

I see a lot of people commenting on it like 50-0 means anything. It doesn't. 49-0 meant nothing either.

And I wasn't making an exact comparison or trying to **** measure bs fights I'm just saying there are plenty of "glorified exhibitions" happening in boxing on any given night that professional boxing shouldn't be putting on.

LOL right. Idk why the done with boxing angle to this "record" is so confusing to people.

Also to the people dogging this fight the guy Chavez got to 50-0 via was 1-15 iirc. LOL. And at that particular moment in history that was Chavez "breaking" this record cuz he coulda retired that night so I'm legit curious if cats were dogging that 50-0 like some are dogging this 50-0.

And like I keep saying some Thai 115lb guy is gonna retire at 72-0 in another 4 or 5 years (& ironically probably with about 10 fights vs pro debut opponents later in his career, as is common with Thailand fighters) & all this 49-0 Rocky, 50-0 Floyd bs will be conversation for the crazies & racist or borderline racial sh^t in boxing audience.

F!oyd does deserve 50-0 with Connor. But it will just be another cherry pick like so many of his fights.
So nothing new.

[tokon]

You weren't making a comparison, but then why bring it up if it isn't a comparison? Just let it go. Geez, we're only bringing up opinions, and you not letting it go shows you think yours is the only 'fact' that matters. Lighten up and enjoy life. Neither of us is the final say in anything much. Guaranteed, the sun will rise and set tomorrow so who cares anyway?

Yea it's sad....one thing I do know is that Floyd beat more champions than anyone in history in a shorter span & during his last fights being in the PED era. They can't deny Floyd's greatness & if they try you know where they stand.....
