    My unpopular opinion:

    If Mike Tyson had've retired after the Spinks fighter, all the people that claim he was overrated now, would of had him as one of the top 2 greatest heavyweights of all time.

    Watching a Freddie Roach interview is even more boring than a documentary on tree frogs.

    Boxing fans are too forgiving of their favourite fighters when they avoid dangerous fights. Excuses like X fighter isnt a big enough name/ doesnt deserve the fight, my fighter isnt being offered enough money so he shouldnt take the fight (when in reality they would still earn a tonne of cash) etc dont cut any ice with me.

    Yup. Same as if Lacy got lucky against JC with a Haymaker then moved up to beat a drained Tarver before blowing his rotator cuff, the overrated brigade would be sucking his cock til kingdom come.

    Diego Corrales should have been dq'd for spitting his mouthguard out against Castillo and the fight awarded to Castillo.

    Unpopular opinions:
    -This one is VERY unpopular considering how people worship Cotto around here but...yeah, he has the skills but I just think he's overrated. First time he fights a guy in IN HIS PRIME (Margarito) and look what happened.

    -Don't remember Mayweather ever showing a CLEAR weakness/flaw.

    -Mayweather didn't run from anybody, the money simply was not there.

    -ODLH is one of the GREATEST boxers and has accomplished many things other boxers wish they did.

    -I did enjoy Mayweather vs ODLH fight. It was not necessarily a Morales vs Barrera kind of fight but I saw 2 of boxing's greatest fight a cautious tactical fight that kept me on my toes. Both were far from really dominating eventhough ODLH was the one keeping the pressure.

    Yep..... it's official. You and I live on opposite sides of the boxing universe.

    P4P rankings are borderline useless and entirely subjective.

    The habit of big named fighters jumping weight divisions to meet fellow status major players while ignoring the legitimate competition and challenges in their own backyards is too easily tolerated,leads us to overlook many lesser known fighters....we loss.But money talks.

    HBO is biased towards it's house fighters.

    Berto is overrated and has received an extremely easy ride to the top.He will not have the commitment and needed experience to step in and punch with Mosley and will get knocked out when the time comes that he HAS too adapt.
