This one is a slam dunk{Pun intended}. Lebron James = He is Black and does bicep curls! Dwight Howard = Even bigger and Blacker also does trains his biceps! Ron Artest = Decked a fat White drunken fan! Gauranteed HW champions, especially in the weakest era ever!
he is fighting twice per year: its estimated Vitaly earned 25mln vs Sosnowski http://www.***********.com/klitschko-earned-over-25-million-sosnowski--28397 Wlad-Haye was worth 30mln £ 50/50 split http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/...s-the-biggest-fight-in-boxing-86908-23242128/ ---------------------- .... the BEST boxers out there are earning probably 2 times more per season than the best NBA/NFL players, while the "average" NFL player earns much more than average boxer: http://nflsalaries.org/ "The average annual salary of all NFL athletes for 2009 is about 1 million dollars per year. Veterans had an average of about 17 million dollars in 2009. The athlete with the highest annual salary is Philip Rivers of the San Diego Chargers who made $25,556,630 ...." ---------------------- sooooooo ..... while there is just a very tiny little chance for best NFL player to become best boxer and most probably there is the best chance for getting knocked out and serve as gatekeeper .... it is safer to become 'average NFL Joe' with a few mln income. It is no guarantee also that any NFL player would succeed as a boxer. The quarterbacks and catchers are not the proper boxing charcters and they are getting paid the most. The defenders are paid much less and they could succeed in boxing ...but they are tool lazy to try having guarantee of 1 mln per season.
His points although well articulated and not entirely without merit were long winded and pretentious. Remind you of anyone in particular?
You are using flawed examples because you simply have no case. The top earners in boxing can make more money than any other athlete however average boxers make far less money than NFL, NBA or MLB players.
. I think Gained had this boards first nervous breakdown while online, I guess his irrational paranoia has finally got the better of him. If he would only embrace is racism like the Grand wizard Nosbar it would be better for his mental health. I think the rest of the Klit Klux Klan should set up a suicide watch for this pathetic piece of scum or at least find a nice padded room for him to rest his racist head:nutcase.
that is right: 'average ' boxers are paid much less than average NFL/NBA/MLB players but you cannot build a case for average NFL player to become best boxer in the world ... average is average ... if these players would believe they stand a chance they most probably would give it a try ...
LOL, All this fools are lying to themselves because they know in their hearts that best athletes in north Americas choose other sports besides boxing early on. So they never go down that path in life leaving the door open for others to fill the gap. The truth is arguably the best fighter of this era, could not beat an overweight and unmotivated champion from the last era (which has happened in almost ever era). Lenny was vulnerable and K1 could not get the job done. Yet, now non of these current crop of pussies cannot touch him at the age of 40. Old way past prime LL(got the job done)>>> Prime Vitali>>>Old past prime Vitali>>>>the rest of this pathetic lot of Heavyweights. But-but-but they are bigger so they must be better, right? Bull****! Shaq is better than Jordan but he was not the best basketball player ever. Besides mankind is getting taller and bigger in general so why wouldn't the athletic superheavyweight from North America choose boxing? But-but-but the great wall fell thats why the eastern euros have taken over, right? BS, the USSR and its satellite states did shitty compared to the US and Cuba (if you said the Great Great Cubans started taking over now this argument would hold weight because the had a history of great heavyweight boxers at the heavy weights on down). But-but-but, if K2 where Black they would be on HBO and more popular in he West. BS, Byrd was boring as **** and nobody would even get paid to see his fights (not to mention Ruiz). But-but-but, you are just a racist because you do not suck the Bros balls like me. NO YOU ARE THE RACIST BECAUSE YOU WHO THEORY OF EASTERN EUROPEAN DOMINATION IS BASED ON RACE AND TOTALLY IGNORE ALL FACTS THAT UNDERMINE THIS THEORY. But-but-but . . . no more buts, **** off and watch something else besides the heavyweight division (and maybe just the bros) and you might understand a little more about the sport. The Bros would be totally embarrassed by all you racist ****s on this board! Yes, the Bros are great guys and great ambassadors for the sport but they are boring in and out of the ring . . . no one can tell me that if the both fought like Mike Tyson that they would not be 10x more popular of Germany. If they had a personality they might be able to outsell the so called "midgets" PBF and Pac. So if you guys do not want to hear the truth go to the Euro board and talk about euro boxing or that Ca$tef'ball sight where a lot of you probably already frequent. Stop this stupid race baiting and leave these boards for people who want to talk seriously about boxing
You are beyond ******ed. Fanatics like you can't be reasoned with. Just the mere fact that you think this posts means something suggests what a waste of time you are. Bitter ****heads like you give real fans who care, a bad name.
Why even try with this bull****? Yes the klitchko's earn shitloads of money comparable to top earning nba, nfl, and baseball players. But there are probably 100 players combined in the aforementioned leagues that earn about 20 mil/year. There are many many more players making between 3-15 million a year. In hw boxing, there are very few making multi millions per year. How many ppv hw fights were there over the past few years? many top 15 guys for instance like arreola and thompson are getting fnf bouths prob getting 10s of thousands per fight a couple (or w/ arreola a few) per year. The math isn't even close. So if you're a very athletic teenager which sport are u gonna put your efforts into? one that is obviously painful and likely to lead to permanent injury and one that you'd have to take 3 busses to get to a gym and one without any real stars for about 15 plus years or ones that are played at school, are always on tv, and ones where all of the pros in the major leagues are rich?
This is actually true. Boxing is the toughest sport of all: http://sports.espn.go.com/espn/page2/sportSkills
Yeah, he is a dick. Part of me feels sorry for this lot, the majority of fans are probably of slavic decent and the slavs have historically been **** on by society. The problem is they tend to express their frustration at another historically oppressed (black folk) . . . like the leaders in the US tell the masses that the problem with their shitty lives is because immigrants are taking all the jobs and free loading off the system. So you have to marginalized at each others throats and the power brokers look like the good guys trying to deal with the "immigrant problem". They prey on peoples lowest common denominator and create deep divisions in society that manifest itself in things such as Racism and white supremacist theory or what they like to call white pride or white power (Kinda like the nationalistic tendencies that they power brokers use to their advantage to win over the masses), they tend to forget that people of NON-COLOUR have all the power in society and they are just a part of a reactionary movement. I have no doubt that there are non Slavic people that share this mindset and those are the ones whose words and actions are inexcusable.
