:thumbsup He is certainly a douchebag at times..and I think his IQ is about 90...but As far as accomplishments go, he was an outstanding amateur and gold medalist who went on to win world titles in 6 weight classes..and faced some of the best fighters of the past 25 years. ...of course then he founded one of the most successful promotion companies the sport has known. Pretty ****ing impressive. I can't think of another fighter who can say the same.
Watched his fight with Trinidad. He sweeps the early rds but gives four or five away. I still had him winning. He did the same against Mosley and to an extent Mayweather. Great jab and when he was on his toes he was hard to get near.
This thread is kind of ridiculous. You could argue that Francois Botha would be top 3 p4p if he won all his major fights
Had he won the other fights, he would've never fought Pac. A good question would've been, had he beat Hopkins, would he have stayed at 160 for any length of time?
