Past Unpopular Boxing Beliefs(Fess up)

[Newzz]

Cool but I can't believe that was enough. You would think with the way he was talking shyt that he was doing every opponent how he did Chico.

Don't under-estimate the fury of the angry white man seeing a black man win while constantly running his mouth while destroying their favorites (the Gatti fight started it), the bandwagoning abilities of the hip-hop community who hop on whatever/whoever is the latest "trend" at the time (the Judah fight increased his name amongst the casual black fan), or the buying power of the Mexican fanbase who love Boxing & have always bought PPVs on Cinco De Mayo & Mexican Independence Day as well as the casuals in the media(ODLH's fans/mainstream media) breh

Floyd knows how to piss casual fans off. He got the white anger turned all the way up when he went to jail for DV (rough shyt too) came out and continued to dominate. Also floyd is example number 1 of why we call al Allah

I had bought into the hype and realized from that point on, I would REALLY scout a fighter to make sure he is the real deal before following them (AB is that dude)

-I used to HATE Vernon Forrest..... champ

-I thought MAB was robbed against JMM (fukk Jay Nady)... now, I'm cool with the decision, but still, fukk Jay Nady and those scorecards were still way too wide

-I used to HATE Winky Wright...... now, I appreciate his career

-I used to HATE Tito Trinidad....... now, I'm just not a fan

-I used to HATE Lennox Lewis........ now, he's one of my favorite all time heavyweights

-I thought boxers of the 20s, 30s and 40s were slow and unskilled (I was young & unknowledgeable)

-I thought Rocky Marciano was the GOAT heavyweight (again... )

Didn't like Vernon Forrest either and was so happy when Mayorga fukked up on both occasions.

MAB is so under-appreciated it's ridiculous.

Only time I ever rooted for Winky was against Tito.

Never liked Tito and still don't.

Never liked Lennox Lewis but always appreciated what Manny Stew was able to do with him.

I thought the same thing about those old timers and I used to get so annoyed listening to Burt Sugar and the other old farts go into nostalgia mode. Then I watched the Jack Johnson documentary about ten years ago and that shyt changed how I view those old fighters.

I thought simpson could beat tatum.

I was vexed when syzslak stopped the fight, but now I know it was the right decision.

I was a fan of both and was always annoyed they couldn't agree on a rematch.

Until that bullshyt 5 years ago.
