    You stick to watching old Butterbean fights and leave the sweet science to people with some intelligence.

    Stop kidding yourself that he is good to watch.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    Does it really pay to pander to the fans and fight stupidly? What does it get you in the end?

    Meldrick Taylor had world class boxing skills but chose to brawl to pander to the fans, and look what happened to him. These guys end up taking too many punches to the head and they're punch drunk and have no quality of life after boxing. People love excitement and risks... but we hate losers. As soon as you lose, everyone says you were exposed, overrated, and people lose interest.

    Floyd played it perfectly in the end, at least inside the ring.
