    Manny has said he chose Mosley because he will bring in the most money. That's straight for Pacquiao's mouth
    He also said he would fight Marquez a third time, but doesn't think the fight would do well financially :deal

    Sugar Ray Robinson was hated when he was active for how business minded he was. History tends to not remember random bull**** like how they beat up women in their free time, how they saw the game as a business, etc. Only stupid fans in the present care about that trash.

    You guys might be laughing about it now, but what I said is true.

    Here's an interesting story -

    About Ali punching his wife:

    From Sugar Ray Robinson book, Pound for Pound - Muhammad Ali took his wife into the bathroom and beat her.

    The reason? His wife's skirt is short.

    From Ali's biography The Greatest - When Robinson tried to intervene, Ali shouted "Ray, you ain't nothin' but a middleweight!"

    Today, Ali is remembered for being a great boxer and is idolized around the world. No one ****ing goes around saying don't make Muhammad Ali your hero, he was a women beater!

    Anyways, it's hypocritical for Sugar Robinson to interfere with another man's wifebeating, so I see where Ali was coming from when he told Sugar Robinson's middleweight AZZ to back off.

    I was laughing at how you put it man, not at the fact :good

    Edwin Valero hasn't even been gone for a decade yet and people have come to idolize him even though he did a Monzon on all of us during his prime and left.

    It's just easier for his fans to act like crybabies then to see realistic possibilities.
