Nah it wasn't fixed, Jake got a big ring and did the only plan that was viable.....run. aj looked like a fighter who hadnt fought in a while and was head hunting. Body shots would've ended this quicker. But that wasn't Jake Paul gassed to me, that was pure unadulterated fear. A big man following him around and jakes punches did jack shit to him. It drains a man's energy. He went noodle legs
well i wanted to BNB4 people started sayin "What! Cotto gets a piece of the ppv and not the FOTD Manny punch -your- lights- out- of- the- bac- of- your-- skull- before- he- burns- your- body- fatality -style with a suppa- duppa- kamehameha -spirit bomb- hadouken Pacquiao!!!!!" All he gets is a lowly human salary of 40 million dollars and no ppv!!!, that Gayweather"....but sadly it hasn't happend yet....
This.
Floyd's uppercuts are insane, especially since he turns his body into them and away from the shots while at the same time stepping around if he chooses to. His spacing is also amazing..so you're most likely going to eat something hard on the way in, and something as you try to get yours off. Floyd's style lends itself well to fighting even if he was tired.
Although..like someone said, a well placed body shot like the one Oscar took is in the realm of possibility. Floyd allegedly has jacked up ribs does he not? Still...I wouldn't be surprised if Floyd punishes Cotto's body instead..people forget about Floyd's body punching.
Exactly! Floyd's body punching is serious! Chec out how he did Hatton in Rd 8 or how he did coralles or judah or gatti, or hell even bruselles. I don't think people take into account how good a phone booth fighter Floyd can be as well (chavez). I wish i knew how to make bets on here because i honestly think floyd is gonna eat Cotto ALIVE on the inside.
For the most part they all revert to their original form when they start getting tagged. Same will happen to Cotto.

"Everyone has a gameplan, till they get punched in the mouth" - Mike Tyson.....so true
u gotta b kidding. cotton has nothing for floyd. It baffles me how people r feeding in to the hype of this fight. floyd is not backing up from cotton ball cotto he's gonna b infront of him power punching him to death and u all r gonna b suprised only cause u all lack boxing knowledge. cotton ball might make the crowd roar with a couple little arm punches cause he's tough but other than that he's been done since Margarito cut off his embilical cord and spanked him.
well dang...tell us how u really feel....
At least I still haven't heard some Paqtards shooting someone who disagree wth the robbery.
Ikr....but to be honest, i've been waiting on it. It might have happened in the philippines already. Can u imagine if somebody came out over there and said they thought bradley beat pac? jeez.
When is the last time PAC was knocked down let alone bya guy with 12 KOs?
Wellllll he was technically k.d by old man mosley lmao:boxing:
im kidding. But on a serious note. I think the only time power comes into play in this fight is A) Pacs punching power or B) Bradley's "physical" power.
We all know pac hits harder, but that wont mean diddly squat if Bradley is the better boxer. Also i get the feel that people think Bradley may be physically stronger than pac and may be able to mug him and make it a ugly fight a la ward vs bika.
I dont put anything past either one of them. I've seen Bradley get caught cold and dropped by holt, swingin his arms lookin like one of those little action figures i had as a kid that had the chop action button on bac.
Likewise, i have seen pac dropped by a jab and almost not beat the count (really he didnt tbh). Obviously he seems to have a better chin in the higher weights so i dont think timmy will put him down....but i dont put it past him. U gotta remember tim aint got a lot of k.o's but he got mad k.d's i think he can make Pac uncomfortable in there
Arum doesn't want to go head to head with it... so expect a delay in the fight.
This is what i was thinking. But still they cant delay the WHOLE card can they? Do u think people will want to pay 60 for half a ppv?
Will Game 7 of Heat vs Celtics on Saturday possibly effect the Pac vs Brad ppv?
Sup people, this is my very first thread so i hope im not repeating something someone already posted....
Ok after lebron went crazy in game 6 the Heat and Celtics are goin to game 7....which is scheduled on SATURDAY AT 8:30. So my question is do you guys think that that will hinder some of the ppv buys for the fight? If so do you think that will be used as an excuse if the ppv bombs?
.....the floyd that chooses to use his legs, or clinch, or boxes outside beats rios any day of the week. Itll be closer if he chose to do his "rough and tumble" act tho
Roger Mayweather - Feb 2016
BEST JAB
Pernell Whitaker: I would say that Pernell Whitaker had the best jab. He was more schooled than all of them, as far as boxers go.
BEST DEFENSE
Whitaker: I would say that Pernell Whitaker for best defense too. He just had more skills than all the others during the time.
BEST CHIN
Julio Cesar Chavez: Julio Cesar Chavez had the best chin, in my opinion. I thought I had him gone a couple of times but he didn’t go. He had a chin (Laughs).
FASTEST HANDS
Whitaker: There wasn’t anyone as fast as me but I know Pernell Whitaker was fast. On top of that, he was left-handed.
FASTEST FEET
Whitaker: Pernell Whitaker was well-schooled, footwork-wise, and in boxing ability too.
SMARTEST
Whitaker: I think it was Pernell Whitaker. Whitaker knew things about boxing and had more experience. He had way more boxing experience than me. I didn’t move out here to Vegas because I had 100 fights. I probably had about 30 fights, at the time. I came out here because I wanted to turn pro and I wanted to become world champion and I did that. Most people come out here because they think they want to do something. I knew what I wanted to do.
STRONGEST
Juan Soberanes: Let me see…I know Julio had the best chin but I think that Juan Soberanes was strong too. I remember my loss in Laughlin, Nevada, to him. I felt like I was the better fighter going into the fight but he was tough and came out on top.
BEST PUNCHER
Soberanes: There were quite a few of them that could punch. It’s hard to pick one. A few of them had me on the floor. I’m going to say Juan Soberanes for this one.
BEST SKILLS
Julio Cesar Chavez and Pernell Whitaker: A couple had good skills: Julio Cesar Chavez and Pernell Whitaker. These were the best fighters during the time. Neither one of them had lost. They were well-schooled, as far as boxing goes.
Hector Camacho (with whom Mayweather had sparred) was a good fighter too. We boxed a lot but never fought (professionally). He was gifted too.
BEST OVERALL
Whitaker: Probably Whitaker was the best. Julio Cesar Chavez was good too but Whitaker beat him, so I think he was the best.
I read this whole thing in Rogers voice lol

thats how i feel.....tho i wont believe it till i see floyd tweet it. Its kinda funny but outta everything both sides do...floyd tweeting his fights has been the one constant thing that hasnt been contradicted lol
Where's the long list of good fighters he's beat? Oh yeah, there's nobody....I can't believe he got a Mayweather fight to this day..thank god for Andre Berto I guess, he made a bunch of people a lot more money then they deserved.
he was floyds mandatory i believe? I guess floyd figured he'd fight his mandatory at least once in an era where it doesnt seem to happen as often as it should. idk
True. However, if GGG was black, Larry would have named his first child G'nady. If he was British (obv. not a race), Dirk Diggler would post non-stop about him. etc. etc.[/QUOTE
This got me dyin over here! lmao!
seriously, yall can stop with the race card thing. GGG is as popular now despite not beating a top name in his division. He has nice charisma, movie star looks, a name easy to recognize and brand (GGG), a good personality and a high k.o ratio. All things that can get you the paid pakage complete with a set of fans and some people who are never gonna think your good enough no matter what. Hell he's arguably more popular than rigo, and way less popular than canelo. I personally know more blacc guys in my hood that have heard those letters GGG and knows he k.os people even though they have no idea what those letters stand for, but couldnt name one fight rigo has had or even where he's from.
I suspect GGG will garner even more public attention if he k.os the british guy next.
