Rocky Graziano

okay, fair enough. it isn't a totally bizarre comment, and theres minimal reasoning behind it. I do agree with the main point. I do want to say that in no way is being a rapper synonymous with being a "street thug," however. there are many rappers that don't remotely fit, and may even secretly scoff at, the 50 cent archetype.

either way, Rocky Graziano was a heroic fighter, and I wish I could get some more of his battles on my laptop. Mayweather is far from a hero. he could be a hero for some if he challenged himself, even if he continued to be a fool, but if you couple his antics with his total lack of desire to fight the best regularly, you have yourself a face in the crowd of guys with great talent and not much else, except mayweather has the personality that garners interest (some in his favor, but most against him, I suppose). I will say one thing though, he isn't done with boxing yet. we dont know what is in store, but if you look at the history of this guy's career, he will continue being that face in the crowd in my humble opinion.
