    He's an asshole. He doesn't fight the best at any weight since he left 135, and makes excuses why they don't deserve the fight. He doesn't know the meaning of the word humble, don't tell me you are better than Robinson. Show me. He tells us he is going to destroy this guy and that guy, then fights to a safe UD.

    Well, Sugar Ray Robinson fought to a lot of safe UD's as well my brothers.
    He fought to a lot of UD's over guys that were a lot smaller than him as well, if truth be told.

    Don't try to spin it, freaking hater. It was a safe SD, not an UD. Get your facts straight, before you bash a fighter.

    Baldomir would walk through LaMotta......the beatdown Clottey received from Carlos would seem like a child's play, compared to what Carlos would do to LaMotta.

    Oh, come on!
    Servo, Zivic, an ancient Henry Armstrong (who had to plead with Robinson to fight..."Come on man, fight! I've never been booed in the Garden!") Sammy Angott!
    Don't even go there with me, bro.
    Yes you are correct in that he beat those guys, but he ran up his record by beating a lot of shot featherweights and lightweights.

    I don't mind someone talking shit, as long as they can back it up.
    Floyd always has backed it up, bottom line.

    your reading comprehension skills are very poor. why are you quoting my post and better yet what is the relevance of some obscure ray robinson fight in reference to my post?

    Floyd IMO is incredible,

    I hate when so called "BOXING" fans say that somehing like Floyd-DLH was "boring" :rolleyes: you couldn't have expected Gatti-Ward, these guys are Skilled BOXERS and are going to use SKILL..

    so many "fans" really dont like SKILL.. they like WILL and the display of it when there is very little defense involved and guys are just trading shots:rolleyes:

    So Does REED:lol: ...

    "Humble" is FAKE Ass MODESTY N REED's Opinion...

    Behind CLOSED Doors REED GUARANfuckingTEE'S that EVERY So-Called "Humble" Fighter is Patting HIMSELF on the Back about what he just Did or Accomplished...

    ARROGANCE is a Much More GENUINE Character Trait than MODESTY...NOBODY is 100% Modest...

    Why is it obscure, Neil?
    It was for the Welterweight Championship of the World!
    I would hardly call a fight of that magnitude "obscure."
    Don't get involved in personal attacks ok, bro?
    Let us talk boxing here, I have let you have your say, and I have said mine, ok?
    I am just stating facts as you did.
    For the record, Floyd could have beaten Charlie Fusari as well.

    My question is this. So what if a fighter considers himself the greatest of all-time. And talks about himself as being the greatest. That's his opinion of himself. Hell I am willing to bet that most athletes think that they are the greatest at what they do. Hell I thought that I was the greatest running back of all-time. Fuk I still do and I ain't played since 98. Kills me that people decide that they are going to dislike someone because that person put themself on a high pedestal. That is that man's personal opinion about himself. I'll Holla 5000

    Thinking you're the best is a great attitude to have. You need it. I agree. That said, people don't have to like listening to it, or agree. Especially considering the caliber of opposition.

    Ignoring knowledge and indulging in echolocation.
    :crafty: Look at these little subtle adjustments here and there, aaaallll beneficial leads to Fraud Mayweather, from personality profiling to discrediting preperations for Margarito's upcoming victory against Paul Williams, you've got plates spinning everywhere..:crafty: it's not paranoia either, your documents are slotting most rationally into thier respective archives you sneaky devil :nono: .
