Prove me wrong ;)
Seriously, buinessmen strive to trample on there comption in order to gain some form of monopoly.
Its a cut-throat game and more times than not its a very unadmirable thing.
Boxing is a very brutal game at times but come on! Who out there right now can be said to be trampling on all comers, Forging a monoply in any regard other than a fan base in their hometown?
Okay i know that was a completely wild and riddiculous claim but fock it. Prove me wrong. ;)
Your kidding right?
Please tell me your kidding.
Do you know when Hopkins got the word that he needed to travel from Philly to Rochester for his 5th fight?
That morning
He knocked the guy the hell out
Don King wouldnt do that
And Frank Warren would demand that the allready scheduled fight happen in Wales
Im not talking about fighting away form home... If thats what you think?
If not youve completely lost me?
Anyway, im mearly using 'hometown fan base' as an example of the only thing fighters seem to achieve as far as competing to gaining a stranglehold on one thing in boxing.
Every one seems to be ducking and diving here and there trying to make a name for themselves. No on Dominates a weightclass anymore? No one seems to be taking on all-comers anymore?
Bar Maybe Pacquiao & for know, Kessler.
I had a fighter willing to drive 20 hours round trip,to take a fight on 2 weeks notice against a fighter half the age
It was the other fighters PROMOTER who wussed out
Yeah i feel ya there ;)Quote:
