...who never ducked/avoided anyone? Are we really that naive as boxing fans?
Ducking doesn't necessarily mean scared, and it doesn't even have to mean that the fighter felt they couldn't beat the guy they ducked. It could just be a situation where a tougher guy didn't have the name value of a softer opponent, and offered a shittier risk/reward ratio. It doesn't even necessarily mean the fighter himself ducked an opponent - it might been the choice of a manager/handler.
What's next, are we going to believe these guys weren't fucking around on their wives too?
