    Because being exciting as nothing to do with how good a fighter is. I think that's a pretty simple concept to understand.

    If we use excitement as a criteria to determine how great a fighter is, do we also use good looks as well? lol. Who had the best hair? Smile? Who dressed the best? Who had the better personality?

    What is excitement in boxing? Competitiveness. Violence. Hitting and getting hit. Back and forth action.

    If you're really good at boxing like Floyd is, you don't get hit and your fights aren't competitive.

    This is a very simple concept. I don't know what it is about boxing in particular that draws in the morons.

    When we are talking about ATG and where they rank against one another then excitement is a factor. Hearns is higher in my view because of this criteria.

    Also stop talking down to me you conceited pompous ass.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
