There was a couple of guys last week who tried to tell me that Floyd Mayweather jr would beat Ray Leonard at Welterweight. I know.....atsch
Some guy in the bookies a few months back said Dela hoya is the best p4p fighter in the world. I had to let him know that hes retired!
Nope, honest. Apparently because Mayweather has remained unbeaten at 147 because he hasn't fought any decent opponents at that weight it means he might be able to beat anyone inc. Ray Leonard.
Guys that weren't really into boxing that I knew used to talk about Ricky Hatton like he was the second coming of Ray Robinson, which I used to find quite funny. They used to say he was the best fighter ever etc etc etc. I didn't even bother correcting them.
I remember once a family member told me Ali would be turning in his grave........ I said he aint dead! A bloke at work told me how Khans loss to presscott was ok as presscott was a world champ, he then rubbed his hands and said maybe khan should fight that other asian, king naz!
Slightly OT but this afternooon I was discussing a guy who got paid out a £70,000 compo after being killed in work. Somebody said "Nice payout but money isn't everything when you're dead". atsch
