    definitely a good sign. it shows they can come back while facing adversity. if it doesn't happen now it will happen soon. it's happened to cassius clay it can happen to anyone. having a great defense helps, but anyone can get caught

    It just shows that our elite fighters are exciting to watch rather being so defensive and boring...

    Boxing is really in the "shitter" right now............These guys, with the exception of JMM and MAYBE his brother Rafa would be gatekeepers for top guys in other eras.....


    Vic Darchanian and Ricky Hatton P4p material........GTFOH...That's the problem with boxing right now...Those guys are grinders and NOT ELITE fighters:-(


    There aren't really 10 ELITE fighters much less p4p threats in the sense of historical significane.

    Vasquez would be a gatekeeper??, thats bull****, Vasquez is top 3 of all time as far as SBW's go, maybe even #1 actually, Gomez and Morales are about the only ones who i could see beating him atleast 5/10 times

    You forgot to mention Calzaghe, come one keep up.


    It's because these top 10 guys have been fighting other top 10 guys.
    Izzy - Rafa
    Calzaghe - Hopkins
    Pac - JMM
    Hatton - Mayweather

    I think its a good thing, meaning that the right people are not putting too much weight on a boxer having a "0" in their loss column, or having to seem invincible.

    The less we worry about the "0" then the less boxers worry about it. The less they worry about it, the more big fights they can get into.

    The obsession with fighters having perfect records is really bad for boxing IMHO.

    Boxing and banking. We reward risk taking with our money and punish risk taking with our boxers. In both cases we are ****ed because of it.
