So fighters are "fun" because they lack the skill/dedication to actually be good at what they do? I mean I guess that speaks to why people loved a guy like Arturo Gatti, but at the same time it shows the double standard good/great fighters are subject to...if you don't allow your opponent in the fight then people will get fed up with you.
I don't think Riddick could hold his own these days...too many guys would take advantage of his flaws and take him on the cards or just knock him out (which would have happened had he ever fought a power puncher).
Look at Bowe's career....one of the shortest primes EVER. His reign as champion lasted about as long as Buster Douglas and Hasim Rahman's!
