saying that you would need political support, massive amounts of time, a green pony with wings, etc.. When in all actuality it's very easy to petition the commission just like Top Rank did for the Margarito and Cotto fight. Before that, fighters had to use 10 oz gloves for welterweight showdowns. They asked for 8s and presented their case and got 8s.
So please, stop with your b.s. nonsense about how it would be impossible to petition the NSAC for the OST and get your heads out of your asses. You guys don't know what you are talking about. Petitioning the State might just resolve the whole problem for you guys now wouldn't it?
Petitions work. Look at what we did to Floyd's ATT'T sponsorship. You see those commercials lately
what did you do barry ?
We petition AT&t to drop Floyd don't know if they did but the commercials don't come on anymore . That was in the past im a small floyd fan now .
you can't be serious? that was the amateur days.
anyway, the first two rounds of the Mosley fight are a perfect blue print of how to beat Mayweather. If someone lays out the same game plan but doesn't gas in 3 rounds then they beat Mayweather.
You know how dumb that sound. Shane was never use a game plan floyd couldn't handle he just caught floyd in round two. So to say shane had the right game plan goin is and over statement not enough sample. Saying shane gas out in round three is a bigger and dumber over statement.
whats the best excuse manny made for not takn the test??
hes big and im small
im afraid on needles
blood test weaken me
I only heard the he's bigger then i one.
to be honest with you if we are talking about entertainment im with pacquiao 101% the dude would lay a beating on anyone! but if ur referring about boxing then i'd go with mayweather 101% too. the only thing i dont like about mayweather is that he is a great boxer but he talks way too much than what he should have been doing. i know it's his money maker but dude talk when the fight is signed. don't brag about ur the greatest but u take to long in making the biggest fight today to happen.
Agreed green k.
im a bigger manny fan then a Mayweather fan. being un biased i see Pryor coming of jilted or slighted. Only going against floyd bcuz when the mention him with the all time great welters they don't mention him. Im a manny fan and favor him in a fight over Mayweather. I still feel like it some hate and resentment and what he's saying.
i dont like floyd that much but still respect and admire his skills. boxing needs characters like floyd, as much as i dislike him i like the way he winds his opponents up, sometimes it makes me laugh. unlike most pac fans, i beleive floyd is the better boxer
Good point way to be un biased.
It's a refreshingly positive attitude to have towards such polarising fighters, so well done to you. :smile1:
Yea i can just try to be a good poster. You kno and be un biased as possible.
HW divison post-Lewis has had its ups and downs. I watched a DVD of the Vitali-Corrie Sanders fight earlier and it begins with a big discussion of the future of heavyweight boxing.
The Klitschkos are the current world champs, but they just haven't captivated audiences in America since their inital few fights in America. The heavyweight division will be reignited in America once either someone beats them or they retire (probably the later). Everything moves in ups-and-downs. 140 and 147 is where the action is nowadays, but that won't last forever.
Yea true but America was gonna back Chris if that fat fcuker could have beat the klit. He would have been famous over night bc he was an American heavy weight.
If you notice there are only a handful of Pac fans who can debate and break the fight down intelligently.

Jrosales

Guys like Makavelli and Peyk Peyk are just trolls which is why I have them on ignore and which is why the thread is going so smooth.
Without mindless "Pactard" and "Flomo" talk.
hey don't forget BarryObama
It ain't right, but a lotta US fans just can't accept non US fighters running the show in what's supposed to be the glamor division of boxing. Those who can crave more excitement than what they feel they're getting with Wlad right now.
So you are saying that America is a World beater. Like if you not big in America it don't matter. I agree with that. Tbh
Once more an Americocentric viewpoint totally ignorant of the rest of the world. The Klitschkos are everything those other fighters were, only in a different part of the world.
EDIT: And if you're going to put "good read" in the thread title I expect more than a single paragraph of typo ridden nostalgic hokum. Make it three at least!
You say in other parts of the World the last great Champs where know the world over. Ali was the most famous person of the 2oth century. Mike Tyson was also know the world over. Before you star trying to bash read it first. Im talking where the champ was know would wide . Hell klits are only know to most of eastern Europe know where else.Where as the old day Champs where a global brand. It's not a lie when i say that is dead bc it is.
This is the question I have about Manny. Can he adjust on the fly?
I watched the Clottey fight and no matter what Clotteys right hand didnt miss Pac. He didnt adjust to it at all.
See he need 's a game plan and a good one. the difference between the two is like this floyd is gonna show some thing in the first 3 rounds that he want go back to for the rest of the fight. Manny has to be able to punch effectively off his back foot and goin backwards. He run into floyd range throwing a 5 punch combo he would get hit. With three hard fast punches every time. Lead over hand right left hook followed by that straight right again. Floyd dont throw alot of combos but manny will be open for the excange and floyd would just have to take on step back to get of while manny in his range stuck in neutral. So for it to be close manny has to be able to adjust. get in but not close enough to clinched and over powered and beaten in the inside. Not exchange far enough where floyd can step back to counter when he open's up. I think roach will give him the right game plan that he has to follow but swing at floyd a 80 or hundred times around is not the answer. Manny has to go to the body so he needs his energy. Another reason he can't waste energy becuz every clean shot he get to the head or body he need to put alot of power in it to slow floyd down. If he can some how do that it's close or manny wins.
Big fan of both. not delusional at all manny is my favorite. I'll be honest theres some thing that manny can do too win this fight. There's alot more things that floyd could do to win this fight. Manny fights with discipline he wins or it's a tough fight. No discipline here it from a manny fan floyd punish manny bad. It's all if manny can adapt and be patient smart and discplined.
totally agree...he is petrified of Floyd
you can see the fear in his eyes....he dreads the day that floyd throws those 5punches a round at him
dafukkoutta here
Im not saying he's scared by any means. I could be alot of reasons. He prolly don't wanna make Floyd more money by fighting him. Im just saying Manny usually is ready. Embrace and love talking about getting in the ring and mixing it up with a future opponent. I don't see non of this for Floyd. That's all im pointing out.
maybe because there's nothing signed yet?
in fact, i've never seen the guy talk about a fight that hasn't been finalized this much
wait til these two primadonnas find their middle ground and get this shit official...im positive you'll see the same passion
What bout him talking when the Hatton and Odlh were getting made. When negotiations got a little rough he talked.
