    Boxers occasionally get bigger than the sport. Dempsey did. He made boxing wait three years. When you're that big you call the shots.


    Everyone wanted Hatton in the ring with Floyd. Floyd got it and cashed in. Cotto will get his if Floyd decides to unretire. But it'll be more about when Floyd wants it than when Cotto wants it.

    No, wrong again, most TRUE boxing fans would at least have some appreciation for a guy who's won six titles in five weight classes, beaten several future HOF'ers, and everyone else who has ever been in front of him. :good

    I agree and I wish more people would see it for what it is.

    exactly, boxing would be better off if he retired rather than take these pointless rematches.
