    We seem to be in an era where cash speaks louder than results. Why are so many boxers opting for the easy cash rather than proving themselves against the best. Are the days of ATG's gone???

    Legacies don't pay bills.... Many of the all time greats with the best legacies died broke with only their legacies & not much else. I don't knock a fighter for getting paid being that this is PRIZEFIGHTING!

    Because legacy doesn't feed your great grandson decades down the line.

    If someone was trying to punch my face in for a living I would try and make as money as I could the short time I was an active fighter. Money has ALWAYS been the motivation . . . its just now that fighter can make a decent living without suffering the damage that those earlier ATGs have
