Sparing is different from a real fight. I've watched videos of Pac and Khan sparring and they had head gears on; you don't get such protection in a real fight. I hope Zab Judah sends him to sleep on Saturday so we don't have to listen to anymore rubbish spewing from this kids mouth!
i agree with mayweather.
Hatton is done.
Do you know how to read? He never said hatton was done. He only advices hatton to think long and hard before coming back, because it takes a lot of commitment to get back in shape when your over 30. That's all he said!
When Floyd was P4P King and Delahoya was PPV King, WHO GOT PAID MORE?
Boxers have never been paid for how good they were, but rather how much of the overall take they bring to the table. That simple! No complex mathematics needed, just PPV numbers. The Boss is who brings more money to the gate, and at this period Floyd shows more evidence of doing that. PERIOD!
It's a shock to me that there are so many IDIOTS on this site! These fools don't get hit on the head like the fighters they follow, but their statements sound like they do! I probably have to find another site to share my love for the sweet science, too many people here with IQ's less than 100!
That's not how it works Amir! You don't dictate to the top 2 guys in ur division to fight each other then you get the winner. You havn't earned ur strips yet! Fight Maidana first, if U win, Alexander will be next. The winner gets Bradley.
I must say, Floyd does have a point. Especially with the Marquez win. He didn't get enough credit for absolutely schooling a guy that gives Pacquiao hell.
It will be sad for boxing if Klitschko wins. If that happens, the Heavyweights will continue their boring saga. My money is on Haye! Wladimir, has never fought anyone with feet like David Haye. All the so called "fast" fighters he has fought, were only fast with their hands and head movements, but extremely sluggish on their feet. Chris Byrd, Eddie Chambers, all had sluggish feet. It's extremely difficult to beat an intrepid fighter with fast hands, feet and power! Sonny Liston learnt that in the 60's, and so will Wladimir tomorrow.
Devon Alexander needs to fire those who manage and advice him! First of all, it was completely ludicrous to put a fighter who just lost his first fight against a heavy banger like Matthysse. He needed an easier fighter to get his confidence back. Secondly, Devon is struggling to deal with the competition at 140 and the advise they give him is to move up to the most GIFTED division in boxing, 147??? That's like one having difficulty solving a problem, then abandoning it to tackle one five times more difficult. Good luck kid! You're gonna need it!
They've agreed quickly cos they want to maintain the 50/50 money share, knowing that Mayweather is a bigger PPV draw. Floyd should not agree to the 50/50 split, since he's the bigger draw, he should get more than 50%. Secondly, FUK the 14 day cutoff. Random blood test should be random blood test, NO CUTOFFS!
Martinez don't worry, if Floyd comes up to fight you, we'll want your belt. I doubt "Money's" ego will miss a chance at getting a title at a sixth weight class. He'll pay the sanctioning fees, though he'll probably drop the belt after the win.
That boy Amir Khan a real FOOL! Who does he think he is requesting Freddy drop Pacquiao for him? Always been an idiot, and as far as I'm concerned a finished fighter! You can't go through 2 devastating knockout loss in boxing and still climb back to the top of the game. It's never been done cos boxing is 50% mental and Amir's head is def screwed up! It's only a matter of time before his fickle chin gets checked again and he is permanently retired. Even Chavez Jr. got more promise than his sorry azz! Freddy should have told him to go fuk himself! Seriously! Lmao!
If this fight breaks or comes close to breaking the PPV record: Mayweather=70% Pacquiao=30%. OR Mayweather=60% Pacquiao=40%. I would equate Mosley's appeal to that of Cotto. So if Pac and Cotto's previous dance falls significantly short of Saturday's numbers, Pacquiao and ARUM need to respect the significance of numbers;They don't lie! I believe Floyd is the biggest draw in boxing today, hate him or love him, his PPV numbers speak volumes PERIOD!
Why didn't he have this same attitude during the 1st negotiations? Shows Pac needed more time to prepare for Floyd. It won't change the outcome though. Mayweather's too fast, too clever and too skilled for Pacquiao.
Well said Paullie. You noticed the technical aspects of the fight, and what Haye was trying to do. Most people on these boxing forums are nitwits that don't understand the technical aspects of the sport, they need to be watching MMA, or better yet a street fight!
now schaefer's washing his hands...as if he has nothing to do with the comments with regards to pacmans using PED.
DUDE, GET OFF YOUR HATE WAGON! GB & SHAEFER HAVE ZERO CONTROL OVER THE MAYWEATHERS AND SHOULD NOT BE HELD LIABLE FOR THEIR STATMENTS, PERIOD! :fu2:
Yeah, that way Mayweather wouldn't need to duck anybody to retirement. :lol1: What does Mayweather have to do with this issue??? (Magocheato tainting his gloves with illegal substances).
GET OFF YOUR HATE WAGON! :slap:
If I was Floyd, I'd do the same thing; make em sweat and wait. After all the trash talk they've done, now they agree to the same 14 days cutoff that was originally requested. I like Manny, but he has MORONS running his career.
Dumb ass arum! If they are accepting the 14 days cutoff now, why did they adamantly refuse it last time? Shows pac wasn't ready to fight floyd in May. Cos Mosley clocked Floyd in round 2, they now B-live Pac can knock him out. That will never happen, Money-May will win easily.
I find this hard to say, but I completely agree with Foch's statement here.
My take, Calzaghe is not just grumpy, but a grumpy bitch with an itch to come back.
I can bet all the money I have that within the next six months jerk-off is Unretiring!
