    There are legit excuses. One is, if you break your hand or ankle or something IN THE RING. Jose Luis Castillo is a skilless bum with no undisouted/tainted victories over any elite fighter. He is still thought of as Elite, in spite of his complete lack of skill, because Floyd hurt both his arms in a fight with Castillo. fLOYD'S poor performance is excused because he humiliated Castillo when he was healthy. Mostly, I agree though. There are always excuses.

    Good post. I wish more boxers would just say "He whipped my ass tonight" and leave it at that. It's called being a man and taking your loss like a man.

    I don't mind fighters that talk shit, as long as they can back it up.
    Edison couldn't versus Kelly, but I have a feeling he'll be back.
    I would consider a change of trainers if I were him, and I think Nacho could make him into some kind of boxer-puncher, but I think Edison may be one of those kids who wants things his own way in the gym.

    U're RIGHT...

    But REED's Point is,if Miranda Fans want to ACCEPT HIS Excuses,they HAVE to Accept Green's...

    Can't Have it Both Ways....

    But, it bears mentioning that you are still lobbying for global acceptance of the Hurricane Ivan excuse..

    I agree but personally you already saw my views in this thread. If you are healthy enough to get in the ring and fight, no excuses.
