    name a list of things you wish fans would just accept in boxing

    such as my examples:

    Lewis beat Vitali legit
    Floyd beat Castillo in the first fight

    anymore?

    Joe Calzaghe is an ATG.
    Ricky Hatton was far more than a glorified Club fighter
    Tito Trinidad's power was a wrap induced sherade, but his boxing skills were under-rated.
    Marquez won his second fight with Pacquaio
    Shane Mosley could hold his own with any Lightweight in history maybe minus Duran.

    I've got more.

    Teddy Atlas is one of the toughest Mother fer's on the planet. I get annoyed with people denying it. And saying he aint a great fighter.

    Amir Khan isn't that smart and says stupid **** sometimes, get over it.

    Mayweather likes to play up the villain role.

    Bernard Hopkins would take Sugar Ray Robinson the full 15 rounds and push him the whole way.

    Paulie Malignaggi is a tribute to Gentleman Jim Corbett

    Tommy Hearns is the most serious threat to RJJ H2H out of the Fab 4


    Catchweight fights are fine, just not for Championship bouts.

    Jermain Taylor was given every possible aid by HBO in terms of scoring fights, as they looked to create and keep secure the next face of American boxing.

    Slappy Joe is not an ATG unless your list is really, really long.

    I love #5.

    Mine:

    Boxing is not dying and no one person/promoter can kill it. Globalization has changed every market and sport, boxing more than others.
