wHAT sense does that make??
If it was for the money why wouldnt Pacquiao just 'stay clean' for this fight and walk away with the money.
I believe Pacquiao is innocent.
The women is scared and she should be. This is a slick American he is fighting, not a one dimensional bum.
Never knew that Pacman and his people were THIS scared :beerchug:
His mother im sure doesnt know how 'slick' or how American the guy he's fighting will be. She just probably heard its a huge test for him and is naturaly worried. Wasnt she the same before Ricky Hatton fight?
I Wouldnt say schooled. He used every bit of his quickness in his hands AND legs. I thought he won but at the same time some of the things he was doing werent exactly endering.
I think Cotto's peaked as a fighter, coming from a Cotto fan.
guys, remember who hes fought! hes fighting elite fighters and in Margarito and Clottey big ones too. These are very tough tests.
Although i think Pacman could win, remember Pacman is not physically as big as those guys therefore its tough to see how he backs up Cotto---and when Cotto gets backed up he looks in trouble.
Mayweather same. Except i think Cotto could/would win.
BS thread starter...just choose to ignore that huge cut why dont you. What a warrior staying in there.
Also hes been backed up by two big guys in Clottey and Margarito.
I wouldn't say I lost respect for Cotto, but I think he clearly lost the fight, and was the only one getting physically beaten up in the fight. However, Cotto fans really have to stop calling Mayweather a runner, because Cotto was actually running a lot more tonight after he realized that he couldn't box at mid range with Clottey.
BOX AT MID-RANGE!!!! with that huge cut!...??? he was supposed to stand there and let clottey land right hands he couldnt see coming? please stop this.
... and I have to say, all you mugs claiming that Cotto was a coward in this fight must be confused individuals.
I've just seen the Cotto corner after the 3rd round, and the fact this one went 12 is beyond me.
GREAT POINTS. I was confused and rather surprised by some of the things i was hearing. Cotto showed tremendous Heart
hattons not overated. he lost to a truly great fighter. And he hasnt made the most of hes talent. Between fights hes lifestyle is awful, like he goes up 8 weight classes then comes back down each time. Also if youve seen him spar since floyd took over youll notice a big difference already.
yeh i agree with an earlier post about thanking God in boxing.
Its not merely a question of thanking for a W like this writer suggests....
I think Ward dedicates himself to God therefore obviously hed thank him after something like winning a fight in the ring. Fighters may thank as a thanks to where they were to what theyve become etc etc etc. You dont know what goes on in each individual fighters lives. Obviously theres hypocrites out there though
what a fight!!!...i couldnt believe knowone was knocked down-its was incredible. Froch landed big shots early but pascal came back with huge shots of his own...BOTH CONNECTING RITE ON EACHOTHERS CHINS!!!. They both showed great heart and i was so impressed with pascals camlness early on(with him coming over to england and everything). In the end froch was the better man and even outboxed pascal but pascal certainly has my respect. FOTY- and one of the best fights u will see.
whose disagreeing with calzaghe now...................!!!!! 'its dying to much politics'' sounds about rite. look theres always been politics involved but in this day and age surely things shouldnt happen like that
the posters on here are so boring. same old thug acting keyboard pranksters. anyway for anyone that cares about boxing id like to say congrats to hatton on a great win. I didnt think he could do that and certainly one of hes best ever performances- he actually outboxed malinaggi whos probably hes nearest rival in the division. Next for hatton he has an incredible match with either hatton or pacman. I still dont know who will win in that.....you would think de la hoya but i wouldnt rule pacman out. de la hoya vs hatton--de la hoya would be fav with hes size adv. and hatton isnt too comfortable going up. pacman vs hatton-wow. pacman could knock ricky out- but could he take hattons shots? id say no
please palle don't line kessler up again with some euro slag tomato can.
america expects more and won't put up with this type of whimyness!
lol - they seemed to have put up with it enough with their own fighters
I dont usually post here but i had to comment on these ridiculous accusations. To top it off he mentions nate campbell and floyd mayweather as the people hes ducked...........erm where exactly was the opportunity for these fights in the past?? i dont need to go into detail-boxing fans know about their relative weights and situations etc. If anything only right now are those fights able to be made...even tho it would kinda be a step down to face the 'galaxxxy warrior'. For Floyd i wouldnt make that fight at 147- youre giving up way too much to fight him there.
Isn't that what everyone was saying about Lacy before he got exposed as a shit fighter?
When are people going to learn that power and toughness only carry a guy so far against world class opposition?
Yeah, he looked more hurt against Omar Pittman than he did against Froch.
O lacys shit now...typical 'fan'. Just face it...froch now is wbc world champion and he can call the shots. I personally think he could beat anyone at 168 pounds, especially with this experiance it will make him better( hes first real big fight). Hopefully he realises he wont last too much longer taking huge shots just because he thinks he can. I was impressed with hes jab. Great performance and fight..........FACE IT HAHAHHA
lool floyds funny...but honestly i actually could see a vehr early hatton win by knockout...hes at the top in that weight..at hes best and comfortable at that weight and is very strong.....pacman hasnt tasted this kind of power before...................but he is no.1 p4p and is a great boxer...if it goes some rounds hattons face will be a mess
All I am trying to say is that boxers should me made to wear headguards even in the pro ranks and maybe deaths like these wouldn't occur.
Thats not all you said was it coward. You made a joke about the poor boxer being able to win if he was able to continue. Shame on you. God Bless Marco and hes family.
