    An uncouth uneducated attention ***** but a well schooled defensive fighter.Also a marketing genius who out whitted Espinoza and Showtime and became the most highly over paid athlete in sports.

    he'd probably be remembered as the best of his generation, he hasn't retired yet and has a chance to get to 50-0 and beyond, Gut feeling is he'll see out the showtime deal, then fight PAC as his last fight, possibly have a rematch depending on how close the fight was, and what money was on the table.

    A serial woman beater who routinely beat the mother of his children.

    An ignorant, vapid, uneducated man who centered his entire existence on accumulating wealth to hide the fact that no one loves him or cares about him.

    A racist

    A coward who evaded his toughest test in the ring.

    A pillow fisted puncher and runner who sold wolf tickets to his dim witted fans by saying he was looking for a KO before his fights then just proceeded to run around the ring for 12 rounds.
