Khan beats Devon...Khan seems to deal with Lefties Very Well i.e. Zab Judah and Collazo. Not to mention Devon isnt the biggest puncher and I think Khan has been a little more responsible defensively... at least in his last bout. i think its a good scrap but I got Khan by UD.
Im assuming Showtime has to approve Floyd's opponents. Showtime should put a poll with a more then two fighters and see who the fans really want to see Floyd fight.
I feel like I always hear HBO turning down fighters opponents. Maybe Floyd is just too big to deny but he is under contract. You guys are ridiculous. Just 6 months ago he was scared of Canelo and Showtime was forcing him to fight Canelo. After the bout Canelo is Nobody... Listen, You can cross off any Top Rank/HBO Fighter. Danny Garcia says He's not ready, Lara although a worthy opponent sells even less than Guerrero did, Thurman hasnt really beaten anyone other than a couple of GateKeepers and isnt quite ready name wise or skill wise. I mean. Who is he supposed to fight that He hasnt already beaten From 147-154? You want Paulie Mallinaggi?? LOL. The guy has beaten 23 World Champs and A handful of future Hall of famers and People Still screamin for him to fight "sombody". Its just crazy!
Easier said than Done Tim. One thing that negates Speed is Timing and Cotto has great Timing. Especially his Stiff Jab. Not only that, but Cotto is The Naturally Bigger man and i think has more experince against Top Notch Competition. Cotto beats Bradley at 154 pretty handily IMO.
I dont know what that means, but Floyd was slow as HELL in that fight. He looked like a slick version of brandon rios.Greased Lighting means they were fast.... If you think Floyd Looked slow against Judah, your Crazy. its just that Zab had at the time Excellent handspeed and you werent used to seeing someone as fast as Floyd...
Khan vs Southpaws
If you look at Khan, he typically does very well against Southpaws..... Look at Zab Judah and Collazo.. i think its a good scrap, but being that Devon is NOT a Big Puncher and Khan has the edge in handspeed and does well against lefty's, Im going Khan by UD.
Take your L simply and Plain. Kell clearly Landed the Harder,cleaner,more effective shots, while you were Lost in the ring outside of some Mauling and Wild inside work. Take your L and move on bro.
Just a FYI
Unless You are meeting with Al Haymon or Floyd Mayweather Jr Himself, all you "meetings" mean nothing. You can meet with Jesus and the 12 apostles... unless Al or Floyd are there, Its a meeting with no true relevance.
Seriously?
This is PROFESSIONAL Boxing, not the ameteurs... So everybody can stop talking about hundreds of fights and this and that. Professional boxing is a whole different animal and The Fact is Loma just bit off more than he can chew... You need to build your way up in the pros, unless your a special talent like Rigo, which He is not. Back to the drawing board...
this might be a trick. how can floyd look more out of shape than he was when the fight first got announced and they were doing the video shoot.
Floyd is in perfect shape, is always around 150 at 30... This is a week ago: https://shots.com/floydmayweather/p/stsidoa2
I've been a Floyd Mayweather fan since 1996 but this guy clearly ducked Manny Pacquiao. I've never seen so many excuses. Manny Pacquiao didn't talk about his legal problems or crazy about him while he was locked up. If you claim to be "The Best Ever" you fight the best or that guy that everyone thinks you'll lose too. That'll always be in Mayweather's legacy. Undefeated don't mean ***** if nothing shows from it. If Manny never Ducks Random Blood/Urine testing in 2009 the fight happens exactly when its suppose to happen. No if ands or buts... at that time Floyd had agreed to 50/50 Purse Split, but when a guy and his trainer refuse Stricter Drug testing, doesnt that raise a RED FLAG that the guy has something to hide? I mean Mosley,Ortiz,Cotto,Guerrero or Canelo had NO PROBLEM WHAT so EVER with Random OST, but Manny gets a pass for refusing it during initial negotiations??? Please.I believe once that happened, Floyd as well as millions of other people truely believed that he was juicied, resulting in Floyd basically avoiding a fighter that he believed to be cheating, which I dont Blame him. Manny didnt agree until 3 years later in 2012 which is a joke to me. I think Floyd has avoided him, but honestly I dont even blame him based on the PED induced situation.
JR you are NEXT !!!!!!!
To Jr's lookouts: Tell jr I will NOT pay to see him fight Con, but will pay to see him fight Maidana. After Maidana vs Broner pulled in 1.4 mil fans I think JR will want Maidana, no one wants CON I agree that Maidana is the better bout, but because of the UK factor both fights do over a million homes... either way it all = 46-0
Well
You dont go 6 for 8 in stoppages and then Get accused of PEDS and turn around and go 0 for 9 in Stoppages. Name 1 fighter who's had such extreme KO% fluctuation over a 17 fight period.There is a Ton of reasons to point to Manny being a dirty fighter at one point in time. And since he didnt test immediately when the chance arosein 2009/10 and chose to years later down the line. It an obvious situation in my opinion.
While Most of what you say makes sense and May even be true to an extent... Just remember they said age was catching up to him and he couldnt move anymore after the Cotto bout... Then he proceeded to turn around and give us 2 boxing masterpeices vs Guerrero and Canelo. I think he was some what distracted going in to that fight and I think he make much easier work of Maidana the 2nd time around.
Lol
The last 5 opponents Floyd has had have already Deployed this strategy. JDJ is saying it like its profound, but its something we've heard over and over. hit him "Everywhere". Has never worked against Floyd.:nono:
LOL... Including assets Floyds Net Worth was estimated at over 900 Million and that was before the Canelo Fight. "They Pray and Prey on my Downfall" should be Floyds theme song. So many wanna see him fail if thats inside or outside of the ring.
Lol
Tim... You cant Punch at 147... Much better fighter at 140 IMO. Cotto beats Tim Bradley and Canelo Dominates him. Styles make fights and both guys present to many problems for Tim and he really creates no Problems for them.
Rob Arum
Rob Knows its good business 101 to mention the Biggest Name in the Sport when its time to promote mannys next Fight... Dont like him, but he's just being Business Rob in this instance... Nothing to see here folks.
I don't really understand Garcia's thought process in not wanting an immediate shot at Floyd. Yes, he keeps proving the critics wrng every time out. But this kid isn't an elite talent. I compare him to Mares. Yes, he's willing himself to wins. But he's a guy that I can see being beaten by someone totally unexpected. If you're not a Pacquiao or a Canelo, who's drawing power was largely dependent on "being the guy to beat Floyd." I really don't see why you don't take the fight first chance you get. Because even if Danny is routed by Floyd. He's lost nothing because he wasn't expected to win and he's still the champ at 40.
It actually makes all the sense in the World. 1. Danny hasnt even tested 147 to get his feet wet... 2. Maybe Floyd Slows down just a step by 2015 for his last 2 bouts( I doubt it, but U never Know) 3. danny Physically is in his prime, but not mentally. Why not get himself seasoned a little bit more vs a couple Tough WW's? On the other hand, fight Floyd Now,Lose fight, Go home with a few millions. Smarter to wait until Fall2014/spring2015 IMO
Wow
Its disgusting to me to see 'Fans" actually Back Maidana on the Glove issue. The Gloves were CLEARLY Broken in, NOT Factory Sealed, brought to the MGM Grand in Suran Wrap, and Deemed to have insufficient padding by Nevada State Commission.. yet some want to see Floyd lose so bad, they're ok with it.
Last time Cotto ran into a tall SouthPaw who had decent boxing ability do we remember what happened? Thats right folks, a loss to Austin Trout... and Sergio is miles ahead of Austin. If Sergio is the Sergio we all know he's going to give Miguel the Business.
Wow!
Thats Disgusting trying something Like That. Never trusted Ariza, and now Robert Garcia and Maidana look real bad trynna be slick and cheat their way to a victory. A True Shame.
It was a ***** move the day before a fight for Team Maidana to come in with Broken in,Unsealed gloves that were deemed to have insuffeciant padding by Nevada State Comm. Gloves are supposed to be Factory sealed and they break the seal on site...not Broken in Gloves with Suran Wrap around them... I understand some people just want Floyd to lose, but seriously..... be real about the situation.
Broner thought hed beat Maidana! lol....Floyd thought so too. Shows you the Mayweathers dont know shlt about boxing. Maidana will fuk Floyd up...win or lose...Floyd will get beat up! He knows this.
Khan...low risk
Maidana ...greater risk!
Floyd...Coward
= Floyd vs Kahn! Lets remember that this is the same Maidana that got schooled by Alexander and beat by Amir Khan. Marcos is no more of a threat than Canelo was and we see where that went...
Paulie is saying the exact same thing Teddy Atlas and Bernard Hopkins are saying. Cant discredit those 3 boxing minds not to mention Floyd Mayweather Jr. Its common sense and no matter what, the TRUTH ALWAYS comes to light.
Angulo is Canelo's "Brandon Rios"... Tough fighter, who cant box worth sh#* and any Excellent boxer should be able to beat up. Still interesting being that Lara struggles some with Angulo... interesting to see is Canelo can be more convincing.
The same would happened to Herrera of he wasn't running all night. Salka is a warrior
What you call being a "Warrior" got Salsa KTFO and sent to a hospital and what you call "Running" Allowed Herrera to Make it a close fight that Most ringside thought he won. Learn the sport and Lay off the Complete ignorance of what The Martial Art truly is.
People Keep Saying Floyd doesnt have 1 Punch KO power... Which is obvious, but Floyd breaks his opponents down over rounds and his KO percentage is actually close to Manny Pacquiao's (62 to 58) With Maidana's lack of defense I can see a late round stoppage easy!
So stand Firm on gloves that are not sealed, have been broken in, lack padding, and were disapproved by the State Commission due to insuffcient padding......Yea,ok.
