PACMAN BEAT FLOYD, BUT REMATCH NO WAY

How do you reconcile that?
The title?s premise sounds problematic, but only to the damned fool who are willing to be fooled again by the same fellow fools and foolish issue that fooled them and fooled the world. There?s nothing to reconcile about the banner story unless your story is one of hopelessly confused. Jay Busbee of Yahoo Sports is correctly emphatic about his stand on ?May-Pac? part two: ?HELL NO TO REMATCH!?
?We need to be delivered from the freedom which is absolute bondage into the bondage which is perfect freedom.? - William Temple
With Golovkin, Kovalev and few other great boxers of this generation together with the remaining decent promoters, BOXING SHOULD HAVE NOT DIED. Bright new stars in the sport today are being ?prevented? to shine and inspire millions on account of brats, crocs and jerks still being very much around.
There is hope for resurrection, though. UNTIL fans, media and the sport learn their lessons and be resolved to do their part, OR until all the undesirable elements in boxing are retired, boxing will ever remain in the grave and the world will ever be fooled again and again.
The essentials about this important TRUTH are both proverbial and practical.
Ignore ghosts, but condemn their shadows.
Here?s the score for ?Mayweather-Pacquiao?: Strip Floyd of his titles, return the money to the fans, punish the conspirators and boycott forever the promoters involved. Several scribes and aficionados have done their job carefully scoring the fight last May 2 and they have unanimously arrived with a different ?aggressive? judgment, far different from that of the ?snoring? blind masseurs. Pacman was ahead on points. Thrice have I watched the bout on replay and thrice have I concluded the bout to be the ?Infamy of the Century of Centuries? in all of sports.
The issue in ?May-Pac? is not boxing, but GREED, DECEPTION and INSANITY.
Now you know.
Be normal.
