Now that is a fact;D

No it's not, it's an opinion butt burglar:lickish: Fact!!

It's all politics really, it's a matter of people hating a fighter so much they won't give them their due. Of all the fighters I don't like, I at least have respect for most of them. Some people will start 500 threads on the same topic about their favorite fighter and then make ridiculous claims using sources that are as credible as the National Enquirer to back up what they say. It's all par for the course here though. In all honesty it makes for some good debates.

For example;

Mayweather is a coward and cherry picker despite fighting the most champions of any current active fighter (According to the ring).

Calzhage however is great (I agree) although he thought no where near the quality of opponents Mayweather has until recently

Kessler is a elite fighter? He gets too much credit considering he is a one dimensional fighter with a good jaw and huge power! Kessler lost his only fight against elite competition (Calzhage) and so in my opinion is unproven.

Williams/ Marquez/ Winky/ Haye get a lot of stick for calling out the best fighters; people say they are whiny etc blah!

Margarito/ the fans etc get a lot of credit for calling out opponents apparently they are feared etc?

Who can honestly say Williams is not feared? he is 6'3 a nightmare for ANY welterweight does not mean he's a great fighter (he is) but he is big and awkward enough to make him not worth the effort.

Winky/ Mayweather/ Hopkins are boring? No these are not boring fighters watch the technique used for boring see Wladmir Klitscho there is a lot more but the white rum in my system will not allow me to type any more sense people. bye bye.

Hmm.. maybe you're being a bit of a hypocrite?

You've expressed your OPINION on a number of boxing topics there. With opinions, there is never really a right or wrong.

So.. all you have is - you're annoyed that other boxing fans don't share an opinion that you believe is the correct one to have.

I am RIGHT - you agree, yes?

I can see what you are getting at; but in my opinion fight fans have no right to criticize entertainers who put their lives on the line every time they perform.

Also some of the things I have written are not opinion, but fact Mayweathers competition is much higher than that of a Calzhage, Klitscho or even a Cotto (Cotto has fought the very best).

Paul williams has the right to call out Margarito (He beat him!) and no I am not a hypocrite as these are my opinions I never said I was against people having opinions it's people forcing irrational opinions on people as though they are facts that annoys me!

"Fans" that post irrational, delusional, silly views stand out. It's probably best to ignore them. Or play along with them (;)). You will NEVER change their opinion.

I don't agree with everything you said. I have ALWAYS found Hopkins a BORING fighter - but I fully appreciate he is a superb one. ;)

If I'd paid to be in the crowd to watch Johnny 'Entertainer' Nelson 'fight' Carlos DeLeon and Henry Akinwande then I would have wanted my money back cos Johnny did not entertain, fight or put his life on the line.;D

I really don't agree with this underline opinion Pype , i think that you , all our friends and i have the right to Criticizes what ever we want , your opinion could take it like a positive and negative term , with your opinion the things can change and obtain improvements , but always when you have Argumentation , so for be breve , the Criticism is part of live bro......that means that is Social...........

And you are right they put their lives on the line every times they perform , but Who pay for that ? , exactly us , if not , we know that they cant put their their lives on the line for show us their perform........

This is an Example if we doesn't put any opinion here , this Forum probably doesn't work.............
The importance in give opinions to every things is to try to develop and obtain better results in which we are referring..................

This is my Opinion ....................
