Common, just have some fun with them. It takes so little to irritate their kind :rofl:rofl:rofl island aborigines :yep:yep:yep

 

Lennox got "extremely lucky" and chickened out after. No class, no respect for his british fans (they don't care anyway), cheated the rest of the world anxiously waiting for him to receive another round of schooling.

Lewis lost it all. No fame, no legacy left - just empty bitternes which he demonstrated year after year :rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl

Welcome to the hall of shame, Lenox!

 

many things contribute to floyd making the money he does, everything he's in control of, and technology. if technology was what it was now, back in the 80's, during the era of the fabulous four and even a young mike tyson, those guys probably would have made floyd money, not considering inflation. aside from that, you're going to use the ONLY big money boxer in america to refute my statement that boxing is no longer big in america? come on, it's no longer a marquee sport, that's a fact. the only time it ever gets play on espn for more than a few seconds is when there's a mayweather fight, pacquiao fight, controversy with mayweather, discussion of the potential matchup, hopkins still fighting and winning at such an old age (for any sport), or ****ing DEWEY BOZELLA, and all those reasons are few and far between, and are discussed by clueless analysts because espn sees no need in hiring hardcore boxing analysts for long term segments in a sport with a fickle, diminished market.

dont cross sports with this argument because it holds zero weight in basketball, a sport dominated by black people (what dominant white player exists in the nba other than dirk? and while your at it, list those in boxing), and both the nfl and mlb have a host of white players who receive mainstream media "love" and have historically. if wlad's name was "terrence smith" and he came from atlanta, he most certainly would get more attention, but not as much with the same tepid personality and fighting style, and the same could be said if he were a guy named "richard anderson," a white guy from the same area. the fact that the klitschkos get very little american media attention has way more to do with xenophobia and marketability in terms of personality and style than it does with race. also, you act like there's a host of white superstars in the nba and boxing to begin with. the simple fact is, there are little to none.

 

yea that tko win over vitali reallly destroyed lennoxs career

 

So much jealousy of David Haye in this thread. It's embarrassing.

 

Pretty much on point and I like Lewis. But he totally thrashed his legacy by avoiding the rematch. The cowardly lion.

 

Boring

 

yup.......

 

They're great fighters.

Just kinda boring.

Also, their fans not letting go of the Lewis thing is annoying.

 

:think

Are you trying to say Lewis ran from Vitali?? Lewis never ran, he just walked away really, really, really fast!:good

 

Quitali- Steroiding and shameless quitting disgrace.

Wlad- Abysmal Glass Jaw, timidity in the ring

And their fans are completely disgusting, hyping all of their subpar opponents into ATG world-beaters to further inflate their heroes' records. Are they the best right now? Yes, unfortunately they are, but that really means **** all in the annals of boxing history because the division is K2 and then a plethora of municipal workers and cab drivers.

 

I don't dislike them myself, but here are a few possible reasons why others might.

1. While talented, they are also very tedious to watch.

2. Take forever to schedule matches that are worth watching and have even backed out and rescheduled them on a few occassions.

3. Have at times, ruined deals by having unreasonable clauses in their contracts.

4. Their fans make any and every excuse in the book for some of their defeats, ie. "The Lewis fight was stopped too early", " Wlad was too green when he faced Sanders," The Lamon Brewster fight was a fluke," etc.. etc...

 

The right answer is not in the poll.

Wlad is bigger, faster, stronger and overall better than anyone in the division, but he still always fight scared and this make him boring to death IMHO.

Vitaly is ugly to watch, but he's a little bit more entertaining.
