    The Mayweathers - The #1 P4P fighter in the world, the controlling father, the uncle caught in between, and a college educated brother trying to bring them together. Does drama get better than this?

    Manny Pacquiao - The greatest fighter a nation has produced, national hero, and a style that can be described best as "brutal aggression", every fight is a war with Manny.

    Those are two that I can think of (I have a few more that I'll hold back so others can participate).

    Drama is sometimes good in the ring in that it adds something to the fights themselves.

    As far any as drama outside the ring, the shit just pisses me off.

    Yeah, it's dramatic the way nobody cares about his fight with David Diaz.

    I'd rather see him run for political office again. I heard from some people who know that his stump speeches were quite compelling. (Well, in a train wreck kinda way. :lol:)

    Insert Clever Metaphor Here
    John Ruiz - Accused of sexually assaulting every opponent he's ever faced except for one lone Samoan who bravely fended him off before he could get his hump on. Unfortunately, the accused Mr. Ruiz has learned to adapt from the lesson given by the Samoan and has become quicker and more adept at assaulting his victims with hip thrusts and crotch on crotch stimulation.

    Sadly, this man is still freely walking the streets, lunging at innocent passerby while the phrase "I'm fair, but firm.............I'm fair, but firm............I'm fair, but FIRM" rings through his mind in comfortable rhythm.

    Family dramas, like the Mayweather's, or the Jones's, or the Mosley's, or the De La Hoya's, never fell into the "Does drama get better than this?" category, for me.

    The harpooned whale tried to rid us of the menace, but unfortuantely "Fair but Firm" stopped him before he could finish the job.

    the black fishnet stockings or the crotchless red leather garter belt?

    Crimson or fluttering rose lipstick?

    Hot pink or flaming chartreuse high heels?

    Oh the drama of what to wear for one boxing superstar...
