    I was sarcastic, you know that I don't like your gods of boxing and think they're overrated.

    Ah, the old ‘I was just being sarcastic’ cop-out when backed into a corner.

    Andre is one of the (unfortunately) few boxers who never had a DV, ****, or assault case.

    I see where you're going with this. :lol:

    But it's true, boxers who either have incredibly toxic personalities or personal/legal issues tend to be more popular and people tend to excuse their shortcomings in the ring/resumes.

    Corrales. He lost a few fights, but also did the following:
    1. Stopped undefeated Robert Garcia for a belt.
    2. Stopped Gainer who became a 126 champ 6 months later.
    3. Took out prime Manfredy like he was trash.
    4. Stopped prime Castillo for 135 title.
    5. Stopped prime, undefeated Freitas.
    6. Nicked a decision off Casamayor who was near his prime and won the first match after Corrales' mouth got cut up.

    And he had way more technical skill than he gets credit for.
