    And Robinson was a brawler?

    Robinson had a lot of great KOs that look great in a 4 minute highlight film, but if you go back and watch a lot of his full fights, he was largely a dancing safety-first guy.

    I think a lot of people have an inflated view of guys like Ray Robinson and Ali, because they've only seen the big fights and the highlights. It's like listening to a band's Greatest Hits album. You have to go back and listen to the full discography to get a real grasp on the band. Both of those guys danced, ran, stalled, jabbed and CLINCHED their way to many a victory.

    Robinson could punch and entertain fans, Ali took challenges way past his prime, these guys will be remembered in boxing history Floyd will be quickly forgotten because of his forgettable performances.

    Yeah Robinson could punch... so could Floyd. Like I said, you're talking a 54% KO ratio for Floyd and a 62% for Robinson. Not a whole lot of difference in there.

    Ali's great because he was champ and beat great fighters, not because he chose to fight past his prime and catch a case of Parkinsons.

    Big difference in KO percentage, do not talk nonsence now to support Floyd.

    Yes Ali went on too long, Floyd should retire as well.

    8%, big deal.

    Floyd should retire, but he's not taking beatings like Ali and SRR were at this age. He's still winning, making crazy money and making easy work out of guys people said he was ducking haha.

    Haters gonna hate hate hate hate hate haha

    Supporters are going to defend defend defend even if it means they look stupid. Carry on justifying the Berto fight.

    You don't CATCH Parkinsons syndrome Ali was showing signs of the disease after the third Frazier fight. That's why Ferdi Pacheco left him he could see it happening. There is no way in hell Ali was fit to fight Holmes & as for Berbick that was disgraceful.
    Floyd hasn't retired yet . Mores the pity !!! When he does he'll soon run out of $$$ & be back fighting again & be in car parks signing pics & telling kids " I I used to be TBE ""
    Keep on Punchin"

    Cool so I'm supposed to respect the fact that he was too stupid to get out of the game at the right time?

    Floyd's at the age where Ali was a shell of himself and getting beaten to death by Holmes and Berbick.

    Floyd is going to leave the game at or near the top.

    Really though. It's amazing how people will just talking without facts, or just make up new facts if they have to.

    I.V. illegal after weigh ins? Since when?

    For UFC fighters, the ban on IV use is coming – but will it matter? | MMAjunkie

    USADA is in the process of banning IV's now. Why would they be in the process of banning something that was already banned?

    And as far as I know that ban is just for UFC fighters and boxers who are working with USADA.
