Where have the Hero's Gone?

[DaxxKahn]

Remember when we were kids and we all looked up to a fighter for one reason or another...when I was a Kid Tommy Hearns, Ray Leonard, Roberto Duran and Marvin Hagler were all guys we would imitate when we shadow boxed or when we slap boxed and got the better of someone we would say stuff like..."Yeah I just did Frazier on your ass"...These guys and others of theor day were the reasons why we continued to follow the sport and became such huge fans....

Today fighters don't seem to have that appeal...Yeah we have the Calzaghe's and the De La Hoyas that everyone knows and we have the guys like PBF who is greatly skilled and their skill can not be denied..There are the Hatton's who draw tremendously but still they just don't seem to have that aura like the guys did back then....

Anyone else agree or is it just me


Hold on a second everyone...I may have not made my point exactly clear because everyone keeps mentioning us not being kids anymore lol...I was speaking in the context of the next generation of kids coming up and their being the guys that attract them to the sport like it did to us...my fault
