Maybe he gets the respect of announcers to say thats what "a champion" would do. But look how far it's gotten him...

Just because you do things other people say a "champion" would do doesn't mean you'll ever become a champion. If he boxed more often and stopped trying to slug it out so much he may have had a title right now. Or a least would have had one. But its his desire to be a "warrior" that holds him back. He got all the talent in the world but he throws it away and leaves himself open to stupid mistakes and thats why he'll never go so far, not until he fixes that.
So is that your greater calling? Is that why you go so far out of your way to protect so many boring fighters? I see.
Warrior mentality and people that watch boxing only for that is what I have problems with. How fans can so quickly call someone a pussy or something when they don't continue fighting when they want to take credit away yet will defend if another does it and then call out fighters for not being "warriors" and judging them. I've covered this many times and will probably do a vid on it.

I don't mind it I just hate when people think that fighters have to be "warriors" to be successful when it's not what boxing is about to take everything your opponent throws just because you can. Litzau has more tools then that but he refuses to utilize them because he wants to stand and trade, it may get him 'respect' of his peers but thats all it will get him. Look at someone like Meldrick Taylor and what happened to him.
