    Hanz should be here any moment with a copy and pasted Floyd diatribe.

    I won't watch the racist, cheating bastard any more either. I can't say I've missed his trademark headbutt-ballshot-clinch combination.

    But basically you watch most of what is available to you? You don't just watch heavyweights or mostly heavier-weight fights, right? obviously we don;t have to go as low as flyweight and whatnot, but the lower weight-class fights are worth watching. I would say you are doing yourself a disservice if you didn't watch fights below light-heavy.

    Hopkins is/was a ring scientist. The cheating tactics were just a part of his overall mastery of the game. I'll miss him. Great great talent.

    Yes. Master the game of boxing by breaking the rules. Thats like mastering the art of shopkeeping by cheating customers on their change.

    I respect his accomplishments, sure, but that doesn't distract me from his cheating or his disgusting racism.
