Then why didnt Floyd finish Guerrero off?? It's not that people hate the sweet science style it's the fact that Floyd doesn't take risk. He could be schooling his opponent but he won't take the risk of finishing him off.
Why take the risk when you're leading on all score cards? The guys he's fighting are the ones who need to take more risk. Floyd's doing what he's suppose to do.
It's utterly hilarious that these MMGAY lot are still parroting these same silly cliches in 2013. I mean, this sh^t was fairly common about six or seven years ago, when the UFC was actually a growing product and on the rise. But now, when that lame product has clearly stagnated? They're still repeating this garbage? :lol1:
Seriously, how many times has this fat, bald-headed tosspot stressed "how much of a boxing fan" he is/was before going into some tirade about how it's dying/dead and how grown men rubbing their balls on one another's face is the sport of the future? He literally repeats this sh^t all the time when a topic relating to boxing comes up, and he even has the f^gs that watch his product repeating the same thing. These people have never had any real, invested interest in the sport beyond the big name fights. The fact that they're citing the heavyweight division shows how totally out of touch they are with this sport.
And to the fat sack of sh^t who wrote this article: covering a huge, significant sporting event that transcended the actual sport itself doesn't make you a boxing fan. Being a boxing fan is about staying up late at night or early in the morning to catch some crappy stream of a fight taking place in an entirely different continent. It's about spending your spare time downloading and watching foreign fights that weren't/aren't broadcast on the television. It's about certain boxing sites being the very first thing on your mind once you sit down and start browsing the web on your computer/laptop. You wouldn't know anything about that, because you're not a boxing fan.
lol get over your self dude
The same people who claim they hate Floyd are glued to the screen whenever he talks or fight to just cry about and complain about it the next day. Rather you ordered it or streamed it you still watched it.

Am starting to think floyds goes easy on his opponents he could of stoped cotto at any point in their fight but he just backed up and let the rounds go by. Guerrero was ready to go since the 7th and floyd just cruised to a ud instead of stoping him. Am starting to think floyd bets on the over of his fights after victor ortiz headbutt and ko.. Lol
even if it is against mis-matched opposition? you guys wanna watch sweet science exhibitions against the guerreros of this world?
if he put clinics on against canelo, matthyse, pac....fair enough.
but its a joke that he's got people like danny garcia and alexander and khan lined up.
no-one minds the sweet science.
its against sub-par opposition when it becomes a problem.
honestly, its ****ing shameful people are rocking gifs from the guerrero fight.
To me danny garcia and lucas mathysse are in the same level of jr. Welterweight tbh unless they face each other and mathysse stops him but thats not gonna happen that easy as people think. Is a toss up btw the two
A lot of people on here hates the "sweet science", every since Berto vs rg people were saying he could beat Floyd by using those tactics. Even up until the fight people were saying rg would win. Floyd just made him look bad, he's just that good. You sound like you just like rock'em sock'em. Who is left in the ww division for him to fight? Most of you are calling for him to give up 25-30lbs on fight night for a challenge. I don't hear this about no one else in boxing, so that proves how far and beyond he is above his ww competition. Apply this towards Sergio, jc jr, PAC, canelo, matthyse, rigo, Garcia and others have them do the same. No one on here will because the hypocracy knows no bounds

Did Frank BRUNO fight the same level oponents as Ali an KO them?If you're triyng to be a smartass make some sense:poke:
I was saying if Floyd is so much better than all of his oponents why hasn't he finished them? Some fighter like floyd dont have to go in looking to knock out his opponent lucky for him he be winning on every card so y should he look for that if the opponent is not hurt. most of the fighter that gets lots of knock outs be loosing on score cards

you guys can knock that fight all you want but i bet theres not many 147pounders that can beat guerrero i think he might be a problem for pacman style of fighting being he will hold and hit little bit more agressive than margo and have way better punch selections including alot faster
okay so by that logic Frank Bruno is more skilled than Ali cause his KO ratio is far higher and he "finished" way more of his opponents :sad:

I ordered it knowing it was a mismatch. But watching Floyd pound another featherweight for 12 rounds was painful. I will not spend another cent on Mayweather unless he fights somebody that is not a major underdog again.
its not hard to master the sweet science when your opposition is sub par. be real, how much did you enjoy the masterful sweet science performance of Margarito v Golden Johnson?

Yeah because Floyd has been fighting guys like Golden Johnson?
how does a $32m guarantee sound as extra credit goes?
hes not being penalised for being too good, he's being RECOGNISED for being too good. and all these guys- guerrero, khan, alexander, mattyse, garcia, are either JWW or have been there for about 18 months. its ok for floyd to cherry pick them but he can't go up to SMW. he can only go to 154 if its a midget 154-er like Cotto. otherwise, it's a no-go zone.
we all know he aint gonna lose. but all we want is a somewhat competitive fight. is that too much to ask for the best fighter of this era?
It trips me out so much when people say that. Its like they say anything to fit there argument. They seriously wont even aknowledge that Floyd himself came from 130 and couldve went even lower if he killed himself to make weight like these other guys do.
They make it sound like WW is his 1st and natural divison, he's huge at the weight, and he's picking on lil guys when the reality is that if you follow his career then you know he's been in 5 divisions, very small in nearly all of them, and has been at a size disadvantage more than nearly everyone in boxing. Probably way more than anyone not named Pac and Im pretty sure he's even over Pac. Thats not even including that these so called small guys from the lower division outweigh him on fight night even right now.
They try to compare the 2 but its not the same at all. Floyd vs Garcia will be around the same on fight night or Garcia will be a lil bigger. Floyd going up 1 division or staying at 154 as people like to say, is a 22 pound difference. How is that the same? Floyd has to go to 5 and is an itch if he doesnt but Canelo cant go up to 1 even though he's bigger than most MW's?
I hear people all the time call a guy like Floyd a coward for not fighting at 154-160 in his 5th & 6th division when he's super small even at WW and will be at a 22+ pound disadvantage but those same people say things like "Trout shouldnt move up because he would get killed by guys like Triple G". The same Trout who has only ever been in 1 divison, is super huge for the weight, and wont be at any size disadvantage against triple G. Everyone is ok with him not wanting to do that and he's not a coward but the other guy is?
If Floyd is so skilled why didn't he finished the fight?hmmm:dead1:
okay so by that logic Frank Bruno is more skilled than Ali cause his KO ratio is far higher and he "finished" way more of his opponents :sad:
to me this is MMA & casual boxing fan talk. Its like if you arent a face 1st brawler then the fight sucks. If thats the case then dont wach the sport. I appreciate all styles. I can go crazy with a Pac & Rios fight, then the next week I can appreciate Floyd mastering the sweet science
well said bro! I appreciate it all!

Floyd is arthouse boxing! He put on a masterful performance and I enjoyed it because of his overall boxing work (defense and offense - or lack of), but yes, it wasn't the best fight ever in terms of Entertainment, and the majority of the demographics are after entertainment.
