    You can't get 5 people to agree with you.

    No, I've always admire Pac. He was NEVER my #1 and still isn't. You read what you want to read....

    And look at you... "No real fan gives a **** about who is more exciting between fighters like Floyd and PAc." Pulling the "real fan" bull****.... You're just another message board cliche...*yawn*

    Go beat your meat like you were doing phony. You disappear every time I expose your sorry ass. You are a Pac fan now because Margarito got caught using illegal wraps, and because Pac has been beating up your heroes. I defend your heroes and the stage PAc fought them at more than you defend them, and I'm black lol. Phony...

    In the end, it's all a matter of taste. In the end though, even as a big fan of the sport, I can't say all fights or fighters interest me equally. Part of "interest" involves "excitement", because I don't watch boxing to improve my meditation skills.

    At the same time though, whether or not they have interested me personally is obviously not very important in the bigger scheme of things.

    And since you brought up Pacquiao - Barrera II for no good reason, I'll just say that on a desert island with a flat screen set up, I'd probably use PBF - Bruseles for kindling instead of having some boxing to watch.

    aside from robinson, leonard is not only arguably the best welterweight that ever lived, but one of the best boxers. period. that perhaps the greatest lightweight beat the 2nd best welterweight of all times in his prime should turn on that lightbulb in most people's heads, but all this discrediting especially of fighters of an older generation that have been there done that and overhype a very good modern fighter is starting to become sickening and annoying. and it's not the modern day fighters fault, but they're annoying fans.

    I have a six pack in the fridge and time to watch a fight tonight. This thread got me in the mood to rewatch this classic.

    What I love about this first fight is Leonard's performance as well. I love that in defeat a lot of his greatest skills are on display. The trading off of left hooks between the two is ferocious. Damn, what a fight.

    Great thing about Alisson is that shes a real woman, she doesnt pose and gets photoshopped at all, just naturally beautiful. Theres some restraint by her dad on the amount of pics online but if she gets famous watch out

    btw someone had an avatar of a guy with a mustache smiling, who the **** was that Eliqueros or elchivito?
