Ready to die in the ring but his health comes first?

[PJ]

Where is the logic in that?

[Ukansodoff]

Really? Do we have to? Yeah the mans a prick but come on.

[HoldMyBeer]

when people say they are ready to die in the ring, what they really mean is "i'm committed to this fight"

thats all

[turbotime]

Boxers and logic don't really blend well.

[Swollen Liver]

good call

No kidding.

Might as well say....Where is the logic in being scared of needles, but getting a tattoo?

its more about building yourself up and getting yourself in the right frame of mind than anything else.
for some fighters its part of their prep for a fight

what does it have to do with the present? I can ask him, where were you in 1954 and what would the answer bring me!?

yeah pacquiao lost 2 times, it wasnt like he lost 6 fights in a row and suddenly became famous. pacquiao was always a talent, he always punched hard, was fast and had an ultra high condition. roach and later ariza formed him to what he is today along with his natural ability. he simply has an athletic body and by gaining muscles he became stronger and stronger, same for floyd.

so floyd doesnt wanna make 50 million vs pac, because pac wasnt out there in 1996 he so stupid....

^This.

[Jeff M]

The referee, the fighter's corner, or the commission are not going to let anyone die in the ring if they can help it. And yeah, it's just equates to saying they are fully committed.

What can of sick bastard wants a fighter to die in the ring anyway. As a fan, I care about the fighter's health and living to fight another day.

[puga_ni_nana]

floyd is a walking contradiction. everyone should have known this by now.
