As far as I could tell too, BHOP didn't even excessively clinch or try to use his head as a weapon against Pavlik. Pavlik fought a BHOP who didn't even use dirty tactics to beat his ass! Atleast the parts of the fight I caught, I forget if I watched the whole thing. But I remember from the parts I did see of the fight, that BHOP fought clean for the most part.
Yeah Pavlik was the one hitting while holding and throwing lowblows.
Anybody think cotto lost because he was weight drained? Why should the fighting weight that fighters agree on be any reason for fans to bitch about. Its agreed on by both teams, you have no say.
sugar shane might be a good one he likes imitating others style, could help him work with different types of fighters. his dad used to train him so he might have a little more insight.
Almost everyone is thinking what you're thinking except this apologist flomos of floyd.
If floyd is not really scared and Pac is such an easy fight for him, that floyd is the best there is no one can defeat him, Pac is one dimensional, no defense, THEN FIGHT THE USUAL NORMS, PURSE SPLIT THE SAME!
The testing can be done RIGHT AFTER THE FIGHT! BOTH SHOULD BE TESTED FOR ANY ILLEGAL SUBSTANCES!
I agree 100%, especially after all the talking Floyd, his family and crew been doing. Im so tired of seeing and hearing everybody talk about the bloodtesting and paperview #'s. I just dont understand why these issues are such a big deal to people.
ah so you don't know anything about what you talk about
got it
for the record
the reason why they said 24 days is that Golden Boy had tape of Manny taking blood 24 days out for the Hatton fight. It was on the 24/7 show.
and no Cotto did not agree to a title fight at 145lbs. He agreed to fight Manny at a catchweight of 145lbs. The WBC decided to make a belt specifically for this fight (remember the diamond belt?)
Manny convinced the WBO to make this a title fight AFTER Cotto already agreed to the fight being at 145. Cotto disagreed with this but then the BO told him if he did not fight for his title against Manny he would be stripped win lose or draw
understand?
So if Manny requested the fight be for the title and it was excepted, why can't Floyd request the commision run OST for that fight and let it be excepted or rejected and just fight? Maybe Manny doesnt want the testing to interfere with his training, mabe he just wants to piss floyd off. You dont know and neither do I. Both guys killed this fight. So instead of everybody complaining about testing just demand the fight if you really want to see it.
The bias has almost gotten ridiculous. If Manny tests positive, I guarentee you people will still take his side and blame Floyd somehow.
I don't really care for either fighter, but the double standards are outrageous. Floyd has agreed to every Pacquiao demand, yet somehow he's the villian.
What demands?
