You know what the problem with boxing is as opposed to MMA (especially UFC) is that in boxing we're so quick to criticize and we criticize harshly. In MMA they RARELY complain about the product they get (at least the Play by Play and Color Man don't).

In boxing its different strokes for different folks...some guys like a boxer, some guys like the brute force. In MMA "diversity" is celebrated and not frowned upon, and part of that adds to Joe Rogan being a total tool.

I hear ya but we should also recognize the elements of skill and craft, celebrate when they are present and recognize when they aren't.

Molina only comes alive at the end of rounds.

Yes, but what we get is all negative comments because you can't have everything. If there was a Ray Robinson today certain boxing pundits would complain. Being a boxer these days is like going into politics...your opponents are just going trash you.



....Damn I see a stoppage due to cuts coming

Again, I hear ya. I do! But that recognition is what let's me at least really appreciate men like Juan Manuel Marquez and BHOP and Andre Ward. But I appreciate the "cavemen" too
