Floyd Mayweather vs Ray Robinson is it even a contest??

There's been plenty of terrific fights in the past few years.

People should be less nostalgic about the 'good old days' which they did not experience and appreciate the good things we have now.

 

You're kidding, correct?

 

This MAN would spank that BOY!

No he wouldn't "FloydFan" atsch

Look how much trouble Judah gave him early on with his fast hands and when he was actually attacking. That lay back and wait defensive style just won't work against SRR. He was too fast, put together too good of combos, had incredible stamina and power in both hands. Hoya almost beat Floyd, Castillo almost beat Floyd, Judah was beating him early. SRR is leagues above all of them, and would beat Floyd.

 

Then you haven't been watching.

 

Belts have little to do with having entertaining fights. A good fight is a good fight no matter if the belts are paper or not.

In this decade alone we have had:

• The Barrera-Morales trilogy, one of the great trilogies of all-time.
• The Gatti-Ward trilogy, which while I find overrated, still had a terrific first brawl and a pretty good 3rd fight.
• The Pacquiao-Morales trilogy, which had 2 terrific competitive fights and a short explosive 3rd fight.
• Corrales-Castillo fights. The first was a classic.
• Trinidad-Vargas, chosen by The Ring as the best 154 lb. bout of all-time.
• Sith-Monishpour
• The two Vasquez-R. Marquez wars

And then you have had a whole bunch of other good fights such as:

Mosley-De La Hoya I
De La Hoya-Vargas
Toney-Jirov
Lewis-Klitschko
Pacquiao-Marquez
Taylor-Pavlik
Cotto-Judah
Cotto-Torres
Augustus-Ward
Ward-A. Diaz
Pavlik-Miranda
Ward-Neary
Trinidad-Reid
Vargas-Quartey
Trinidad-Mayorga
Echols-Brewer
Cintron-Estrada
Katsidis-Amonsot
Barrera-Marquez
Morales-Diaz


The list goes on and on.

Good fights are nothing rare in boxing.

 

I listed about 35 fights, and 8 of them are from 2007.

That is less than one-fourth.

 

Why don't you answer that, since you know so much about the old days and find it was better, then. This has been one of the greatest years in boxing, ever. Just think of all the mega-fights.

Edit: Why are you even crying? It's been a great year, go ahead and dry your tears.

 

How and Why?

 

You ****ing pwned him.

 

2007 is a terrific year, everyone knows that.

Where you're off-base is claiming that good fights are rare. You may have missed them but there have been plenty of entertaining fights in the past few years, not just in 2007.
