Quote of Note
Mayweather Coulda Been A Legend Like Ali
“Oh Gaa-w-w-w-d, who cares?!!! Pacquiao fought the whole division for him while he was fighting cherry-pickins and wrestlers. Money May is courting a small pie here. He could have been the next Ali or Tyson if he had stepped up to all the competition. But he chose his contests like a girl choosing earrings for her next date.” –Robert Curtis thinks Mayweather dropped the ball when he cherry-picked foes
Another stellar year from our Forum crew, the best in this known universe. Results for Reader of the Year are still being tabulated. In a moment of weakness, I hired CJ Ross to help with the computation and, well, it didn’t go well. Happy New Year to the best and brightest amateur scribes! –Editor Mike
“Boxing is full of optical illusions. And I give Money May MAD props for doing a mix of Houdini and Marlin The Magician. Wow! Money May fought a club-fighting-like humbug in “The Cali Ghost.” And a hyped-up B fighter in Canelo. The promotions were grand to get eyeballs and easy impressionable minds behind those PPV screens. Because the live gates didn’t sell out.” –Radam isn’t sold on this being the year of Money May
“It must be said that even a wounded, war torn Martinez is still a more dangerous threat than Canelo for Cotto. The powers that be must be expecting a phenomenal turnout.” —Brown Sugar says that Martinez is a tougher out for Cotto than Canelo
