    What I like about these threads is the way that it exposes some guys hyprocrisy. Whenever there is a thread criticizing someone like Corey Spinks or another boring slickster, there is a ton of pretentious assholes that say that is what boxing is all about and if you don't like those guys you aren't a boxing fan.

    Then you come in a thread like this and all you see if wars. These kind of fights is what boxing is really all about.

    ****ing adore that fight. It's always the first thing I say to anyone who gives it the old "Toney was overrated, he was slow, no footwork" etc etc.

    He was a genius.
