Re: Here he goes again...
I personally think grant should have given up boxing a long time ago. Hes a physical specimen and a good athlete but it takes something extra to be a fighter.
Theres a killer instinct, i never got the feeling he possesed. Many people would say he had heart to get up from being knocked down all those times, but real fighters want to get up and turn the tables...not just show they can take a beating. That just makes you a Journeyman.
He can say what he will about being a puppet for other people in the past, but he had some decent corners. Perhaps hes referring to some shady management... but in the ring, your on your own and have to show what youre made of. I think if Grant could cut it, he would have already.
They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.
