Casual fan - no Blood and war - yes - Gatti, Corrales, Duran the lot. Now **** off back to wherever you are in TX.
that fight didn't just have more action that floyd's fights it probably had more action than the action floyd gets from miss.jackson.
Casual or Hardcore, it doesn't matter, because the majority will always prefer the warrioresque fights. When historians and fans talk about the sport, the action packed fights are ALWAYS what they talk about. The fighters who took risks and put on warrior performances will always get the most credit and deservedly so.
A great example was Ali. He was as slick as they came but was remembered for his great wars with Frazier. No doubt about it, these are the kinds of fights that makes legend.
Way to go Salido, you just sent hundreds of fans running scared and boxing will take a big hit for the next few months. Didn't you hear all the support for your first stoppage of Lopez? Fans feared for his life! Cotto was two seconds away from death in the first Margarito fight, don't you know boxing fans do not like violence? They like clinching, head movement and running. I keep telling them to watch figure skating and karate tournaments but they insit that they like boxing, so tone it down next time alright?
What do you mean he fled after the fight, Floyd fled during the 5th round. Had he seen he 8th round he would have had a zeizure.
