Floyd Mayweather is coming back and he's fighting Juan Manuel Marquez, which is supposed to be a decent fight. Hopefully Mayweather wins so we can get the fight everyone wants to see: Manny Pacquiao vs. Mayweather.

I didn't want to start a new thread, and this one seems good for boxing-related posts.
Kevin Iole posted a story on his Yahoo blog about Jim Brown (the former NFL running back) wanting to box Muhammad Ali back in the 1960s. Bob Arum, who was friends with Brown, approached Ali with the idea:
So I went to talk to Ali. He says, 'Jim wants to do what? Bring him here.' So I took him to Hyde Park in London, where Ali used to run. Ali said, 'Jimmy, here's what we're going to do: You hit me as hard as you can.' So Brown starts swinging and swinging, and he can't hit him. He's swinging wildly and not even coming close. This goes on for, like, 30 seconds. Then Ali hits him with this quick one-two to his face. Jimmy just stops and says, 'OK, I get the point.'"What are you prepared to do?" - Jimmy Malone
"What choice?" - Abe Petrovsky

Being in the Philippines for a Pacquaio fight is quite the experience. I can't to get home, but I'm looking forward to the event.A man who views the world the same at fifty as he did at twenty has wasted thirty years of his life. - Mohammad Ali

Well, because he thought it was good sport. Because some men aren't looking for anything logical, like money. They can't be bought, bullied, reasoned, or negotiated with. Some men just want to watch the world burn.

There are three rules that I live by: never get less than twelve hours sleep; never play cards with a guy who has the same first name as a city; and never get involved with a woman with a tattoo of a dagger on her body. Now you stick to that, and everything else is cream cheese. --Coach Finstock
