Probably best looking too.
Yes he is a LEGEND.

Yes, well.... (ahem)... while these are (cough) certainly admirable qualities in a fighter, I would think they hardly qualify as "legend" material. Although yes... to the female fan base in general he probably IS a legend.

By the way... I hate... no, scratch that... i DESPISE how people constantly use money earnings as a measuring stick of a fighter's merit as a HOF'er, legend, cannonized saint... whatever. MANY things go into the money earning factor. And fighting ability, record, skill, and all the things that matter are only a relatively small piece of the pie when determining money-making ability. Press hype, personality, political powers within boxing organizations, promotional abilities, A COUNTRY'S HUNGER FOR A STAR OF ANY KIND AT A CERTAIN POINT IN TIME..... all these factors come into play also when money-making ability is being decided.

Oh wait... he's got a statue of himself somewhere in L.A. Scratch the above. The guy's a frigging LEGEND!!
