I’m a lifelong fight fan, and had well over 100 backyard #boxing matches, but I had just enough official fights to have some hardware. Couple belts, couple trophies, a few medals. Not much, but for someone who was never built to compete in boxing, I’m proud of it. Sheer passion.

@DanRafael1 @CompuBox Maybe the IBF needs to explain how on earth he got to be mandatory by beating an ancient Jean Pascal, and then sitting on the ranking for three years

@virgilpete Let me end the suspense for them. He loses… to All of them.

@AlBernstein @dougiefischer Although, it has to be nurtured at the younger levels. Even in the 90s it was near impossible to find boxing programs in traditional youth sports centers for middle class families. It’s gotta be a working/middle class sport to make it truly cross back over.

[CSBoxing @ChrisStraitBox]

@AlBernstein @dougiefischer It could help get the American fight fan back involved. I think TBL expanding will also do that. Because the defensive backs and point guards who would be good at the sport, can actually wade in during the off-season without having to commit fully.

@sirDukeDevin The trust is broken. The level of stupidity of nearly a third of our country is pretty disgusting.

[CSBoxing @ChrisStraitBox]

@MaxCalendrillo People need to calm down. A lot of fighters say they’re coming back, but only about a half of them actually do. And they don’t say it, but the reason why they stopped trying is what happens in the gym when they go back there.

@snboxing Just when you think they might develop some integrity, they take two steps backwards

@The_Mean_One20 @RandyGoat @Pat72852006 The level of delusion you have is truly awe-inspiring. You have to ignore 80 years of the man’s life to feel that way.

[CSBoxing @ChrisStraitBox]

@RandyGoat I guarantee it will happen. The only 50-50 is whether or not it will work.

@Zack_magaig I’m gonna write in Reagan

[CSBoxing @ChrisStraitBox]

@patriotgirl776 When the Republicans are in charge, the middle class goes away, when Democrats are in charge it grows. Big middle class equals developed nation. End of story.

@tsjules007 Martinez’s over Williams is a close second for the same reason

[CSBoxing @ChrisStraitBox]

@tsjules007 Robinson over Fullmer. A one punch knockout against an iron chinned man who had just beaten him.

[CSBoxing @ChrisStraitBox]

@SteveKim323 @dougiefischer He realized he could beat everybody except the man, Pacquiao, but he got rich trying. Then he retired. I wish Dubois would get the same hint.

[CSBoxing @ChrisStraitBox]

@SteveKim323 @WBABoxing @GilberticoWBA You are a more patient man than I, assuming they have any integrity.

@snboxing He is a PBC fighter. Question answered. We’re lucky to see him once a year. He’s just being positioned to lose for the most money.
