He was asking me about stuff I had signed and I told him I had just gotten a photo signed by Carmen Basilio. The guy looks at me and says "I never heard of him." I said goodbye, got my coffee and left.
LMAO
Back in 93, a co-worker came up to me and said too bad about Chávez. I said I know, he was a great leader. In which my co-worker replied "he was a great boxer"
I laughed out loud and I had to explain to him that this César Chávez who passed away was not the boxer Julio César Chávez but that he was an American farm worker, labor leader, and civil rights activist who co-founded the National Farm Workers Association, which later became the United Farm Workers.

When you have been watching boxing along time such things dont intrest you , i tune in and go to fights to watch 2 men in their prime bare their souls not to see some mismatch gorefest !!
I also cant stand showboating when a fighters losing it seems to amuse some people but i think anyone initiated in the noble art sees it for what it really is !!!
Typical example being Roy Jones acting up in the Tarver rematch, i was watching the fight with my girlfriend and her dad and they were really impressed i just wanted to shout at the both of them !!
My personal favourite fight was Vargas - Tito that fight had everything and never have i witnessed such bravery under pressure as that show by Fernando .
I for one like boxing but i also like to see a fighter ask some serious questions of himself !!
I cant stand Hopkins , Mayweather and Winky Wright !! They are seasoned fighters who always seem to be fighting smaller less gifted men and usually not putting their man away making excuses whilst getting paid millions!!
Hopkins display against Eastman sticks in the mind , Hopkins mouthed off about what he was going to do and then just held and counted punched the entire fight . Then against Taylor just did enough to '' POSSIBLY'' win for a man making his 20th defence his performence was a disgrace .
Mayweather though takes the cake though !! The man has a sewer for a mouth he should be beating a trail to Hattons door as Hopkins should be beating one to Calzaghes !! Instead he goes after Carlos Baldomir a limited come forward fighter taylor made for him and then gives another exhibition never ever trying to stop his man !!
Hatton and Calzaghe on the other hand stand tooth and Nail in hard fights with big man with pedigree and did it the champion way against Collazo and Bika !!
Joe damaged his hands but still stood in the trenches against a dangerous fighter.
I was a little dissapointed with Hatton last time out but thats the 1st and only time i ever will !!
I always have a sour taste in the mouth after watching Hopkins , Mayweather and Wright .
This garbage makes me laugh. Bad mouths Mayweather for facing Baldomir (undisputed Welterweight champion at the time). Than praises Calzaghe for facing Bika (obscure European who's own mother doesn't recognizes him). Typical British poster.
Agreed 100%.
Oh dear
Typical...... :-X
Re: Fed up of "Boxing Fans"
I dont actually beleive that Bika is actually european Vd my love....

Re: Fed up of "Boxing Fans"
Geeze, every time the name Mayweather crops up, the talks degenerates into this miserable level - it never fails. We're living up to the title of this thread, fellas, didn't you notice that. As they say, when you go into name-calling, that's a sign you've lost your argument, think about that. Am I talking to a wall again? I guess I am.

Re: Fed up of "Boxing Fans"
I believe Floyd Mayweather is a hall of famer. He just has to put up or shut up. He has the potential. All he has to do is deliver wins against other great fighters. Not the mediocre sh!t.

In his prime Mike Tyson would be a hard fighter to "over rate" IMO
He dominated his opponents and terrified them into survival mode before the fights started. MOst talked about fights in a long long time.
He captivated the public and media attention both good and bad.
Most well known boxer world wide second maybe only to ALI.
Youngest HW champ, KO string, huge wins, Massive Douglas upset etc etc.
Too bad he goes out with a legacy as a rapist,punk,bum.PITY.
Everyone wanted to see the man beaten,broken,humiliated.
Mike Tyson really did take on the world.....and the world won
