    If ODH. Cotto and Hatton were such bad fights for May , why did Pac get so much praise for beating them? Is it because he beat them in a more convincing manner? There is a touch of hypocracy in my opinion. But the facts do speak for themselves. Boxing has changed and if you play your cards right, which both Floyd and Manny have done you can makes a huge amount of money not fighting the best. Mays fight with Canelo is a good fight and people should give May some credit for making this fight.

    but people were afraid for Ali's life...If the fighter isn't gonna give his opponents credit, then the fans should.

    And some people thought Ali was calling Foreman a slow mummy and bum to Psyche himself up because deep down he had some nervousness about the fight.

    Floyd didn't fight Cotto until after Tony Margarito had demolished him . He fought Baldomir instead of Margarito for less $$$ Then he had the gall to fight Judah who had been beaten by Baldomir. What a cherry picker and that's only the tip of the iceburg
