Watching Filipino news, Pac was sent to the hospital for possible concussion. Pac's trainer and promoter also up for a 5th fight. They are also showing the post fight interview, i am surprised that JMM accepted the WBO fighter of the decade belt.
where did i see that knockout before???
Oh Yeah lol

=Furn;12091838]Cotto said himself he was fine at the weight, it was one pound less than his previous fight. Why weigh 146 in a 147 fight if you have issues making weight?
He fought the majority of his career at 140. He didn't even weigh 154 in 2 of his 4 fights at the weight. He had only weighed 147 3 times in 40 odd fights before Pac.

You dont trust your eyes???
Cotto looked like goddman Mr, Bigglesworth the cat from austin powers... Look at him, look at clottey, look at delahoya , look at morales, but when you look at marquez looking fit and trim, he got his ass whooped...
If youre gonna correct somebody, at least correct them with the correct weight
It was 145
Sh-t still stand though. Not only was he at 145 in a catchweight, he also had a rehydration clause put on him as well.... A rehydration clause is the true factor. Coming in at 145 wasnt too bad, but not being able to go back at his normal fight night weight is what killed him...
Think about this... For all the people that think the rehydration/catchweight didnt affect Cotto....
Pac dusted a weakened Cotto teh first time, but if you guys wanna push that, then ask yourself, why did Manny again ask for a catchweight on a fighter he dominated???
The answer is obvious.... He dominated because of the catchweight/rehydration clause
People can argue this and argue that, but at the end of the day people say Manny and Floyd in common opponents.. As Floyd stated after the fight. I fought him at a weight he was comfortable at, and not a "catchweight"
145 cotto was weaker with a rehydration clause just as Delahoya was as well with a rehydration Clause, and manny even outweighed delahoya!!!!!
SIMPLY PUT IT'S CAREFUL MATCHMAKING.
If Floyd had told Cotto he can only fight at a catchweight he would have been crucified, and rightfully so... because more is expected from Floyd than Manny....
We have seen manny not being able to cut the ring off. That Cotto last night would have been too big and strong for manny.... That cotto would have put marquez into retirement......
No we haven't, we saw one fought against a 145 Cotto and another a 154 Cotto.
Even Margarito was below the 154 limit fighting for a belt when he only had beaten Robert Garcia... Thats a farce within itself, but yet and still its credited as an 8TH DIVISION for pac. lmao!!!
These fools are simply saying pac fought Cotto and Floyd fought cotto, without looking at any fights. No wonder this site is laughed and frowned upon....
stop f0kking lying...
Bro you cant even be taken serious at all. I mean we are supposed to listen at you supposedly subjective, when you got a pic insinuating the man is gay in your signature???
Seriously no need to bother with you as you are a clown, and it shows...
boxings0cialistdotcom/profiles/blogs/bob-arum-leaves-himself-open-to-criticism-again-part-1
Put that in your browser, then come back to debate. I mean apples are apples and oranges are oranges....
You cant piss on my leg and tell me it's raining....
stop f0kking lying...

DEAL WITH IT..... DONT GO RUNNING AND DODGING, ****IN DEAL WITH IT....
LOL, that fight is far from that. That fight was one way and the traffic cops were to busy eating donuts to give tickets to the 2 violators.
Did you even see it?? Be specific with the rounds in question... I honestly think you didnt even see it...
Lets talk about the fight round by round and soon it will be up to view and we will see if you are full of shat...
You guys are some easily swayed dudes lol
I don't even listen to the commentary. The fact that you have to force yourself to not listen just so your opinion isn't changed just shows how easily your opinion can be changed.
Its not that, but in the heat of battle at an angle you may miss something, its possible to be manipulated by the commentators. The whole point of not listening to commentation shows that we are trying to be unbiased... Like I stated, I dont have nothing against manny, and would probably call it a draw..... But if it went to Pacquiao I wouldnt be crying robbery, and lying saying bradley only won x2 maybe 3 rounds. Thats ri****ulous....
Truth is that Bradley simply swept rounds 9-12 and he won rounds 1-2 easily. Trying to throw and land a few punches at the end of the round doesnt negate the fact Manny wasnt controlling the action the first x2 minutes.
Factor in that Bradleys ankle literally did twist, and thats when manny started to take control only adds fuel to the fire....
It could have went either way. But what I really find funny is that most on here know that arum is scum, and last week Arums coniving ass was God. This week he sabotaged manny. Now I ask, was anyone in primetime yelling robbery when manny lost to marquez?? Again I didnt complain because it was pretty close and it could have went either way.
Everyone remembers lampleys infamous "BANG" comments during the clottey fight, when alot of that **** wasnt even landing. I mean seriously the HBO COMMENTATORS ARE BIASED, AND FOR YOU TO THINK THEY ARE NOT, YOU DONT KNOW SH*T ABOUT BOXING!!!
I had the fight even 114-114 with 4 swing rounds.
Hear me out..
Watching it for the first time last night I assumed Pacquiao won atleast 9 rounds but watching it again without HBO's extremely bias commentary/scorecard this was a very close fight.
Pacquiao's workrate was very very low and Bradley outworked and outboxed him half the fight.
For example the first round, apart from the 4 left hands Manny landed at the end of the round what else did he do? Bradley controlled the action. Same with round 2.
People never gave credit to Bradleys counterpunches, headmovement, a constant jab in Manny's face and general control for most of the round.
Manny's legs are gone and it was cringing to watch him just slowly plod towards Bradley, he's basically a slugger now who fights in spurts.
Whether this was attributed to Pacquiaos training camp and Alex's Arizas decision not to train Pacquiao as intensely (because of the leg cramps) or because of old age it showed in the fight bigtime.
Pacquiaos power may have given him the slight edge but alot of his shots never landed, Jim Lampley as usual assumed the punch did land but watch it carefully and you'll see alot of them didnt.
I implore you to watch it again without sound, and score it round by round. You'll be amazed how inactive Pacquiao was and how he got countered alot with quick hooks, hes merely a shadow of his former self.
Add this to the fact that Bradley was practically immobilised because of two injured feet it doesnt look good for Pacquiao in the rematch.
1-2 Bradley...
9-12 Bradley, seriously just watch it without the sound. Its just like the Floyd Cotto fight, I was really watching the fight and had to mute the HBO COMMENTATORS....
Seriously guys just rewatch it without the sound... I swear you will come to the same conclusion...
The judges are not listening to lampley and crew. Its just like the ortiz fight when lampley was giving ortiz props for hitting floyd when floyd was clearly and cleanly hitting him. I am not hating on pacquiao at all... But Pacquiao has been given a decision in his last fight. I honestly had it at a draw, but I could also see how it could go either way. Had manny been given teh nod, I would be on here telling you guys to rewatch teh fight...
Mark my words, when they fight again in November, this time Bradley will beat him more convincingly. We know Bradley doesnt have the power Pac has, but thats not what really wins fights. Now his leg was also jacked up.... Pac is going to beaten even moreso. I wouldnt be surprised if Pac fought Marquez instead of Bradley next. I know they have the rematch clause etc. But mark my words, Arum is not going to pursue this at all.. Because its obvious if you dont have the commentation...
Just like the 3rd Pac-JMM fight, i watched it a couple of times.
1st time i rewatched it, the tv was on, sound off, my back turn. Still 117-111 for Pac.
2nd time, tv off but the dvd is playing. Still for Pac with same score.
To be fair with Bradley, i watched it a 3rd time, tv on, sound off, and i am in the bathroom taking a ****. Still same score for Pac.
WELL LOOKING AT YOUR SIG, WHAT DO YOU EXPECT?? AT LEAST HE WAS A GENTLEMAN ABOUT IT, WAS HE SUPPOSED TO SAY YEAH I GOT ****ED UP, I have no bruises though..lol
Truth is it could have went either way, people simply love Pac, plain and simple.... He stated he would give him a rematch... Thats better than the crap pac stated saying if filipino's think he lost then they are not true countrymen or something to that effect... (post marquez)
Manny people thought marquez won, fat dan included... But did i SEE YOU COMMENT EITHER TIME ASKING PAC TO SAY HE DIDNT WIN?? NO you didnt, you are simply biased....
Bradley has fought Pac now, and he will perform even better next time. Pac had the harder shots, bradley out fought pac though. I mean we knew that manny hit harder going into the match. Hitting harder doesnt mean ****.
I agree. If Manny wins the 5th it will depend on how. If he Kos JMM it will be like now were even. If he beats him by decision it will be like, So what...JMM knocked you out cold! Still a win win for JMM if it goes to the cards!
Reality is Pac is not a mental guy............
He will fight cautious which is not his fight......
MARQUEZ IS THE THINKER...
ANYONE THINKING PAC WILL BE THE SAME (AGGRESSIVE) DOES NOT UNDERSTAND HUMAN BEHAVIOR AT ALL.....
Actually I don't, I am real patient and usually bet when I think the odds are nicely in my favor.
I used to bet way more often and learned some hard lessons, but those lessons allow me to make much more than I lose currently.
This^^^^^^^^ Hard lessons learned on my end lol
Dont bet wit emotion is the first step lol
True. At those odds, it would be too hard to pass up on Guerrero.
lol Just because the win would be profitable doesnt mean you take it..... You dont throw money away just because lol
Garcia gonna get his ass kicked ...... We call these sucker bets lol
save your money bro lol
The point is, they're both cherry picks, but the other cherry pick is boring beyond words.
Also, Floyd set it up that way, so people would just let him have his little Guerrero fight, and hype it up like it's Sweet Pea vs Chavez Sr.
YOU ARE MISSING WHAT HE IS SAYIN LOL... Illmatic is askin if they are cherry pics, then how can people come out with just after the devon tweet from floyd that floyd was duckin GUERRERO???
PERFECTLY LOGICAL QUESTION FROM ILLMATIC... Who cares how you feel about them lol Fact remains that many posts on here were sayin that floyd was duckin Guerrero......
So in the vein of illmatics questioning and in the same vein as the op, how was it a cherry pick, and then a duck, and now back to a lame fight????
Its a decent fight..... You guys have no shame..... When manny was fightin, sergio came out and said he would whoop manny silly basically.....
I saw every excuse, mannys too small, not comfortable @ 154 etc.....
Now you batches are asking for floyd to challenge himself and take a risky fight by fighting the middle weight king.....
You are asking him to fight a reigning champion multiple divisions higher than himself!!!!!!
10 months ago trout wasnt even a factor, until he beat the same guy in cotto in whom floyd beat as well...
now if he fights canelo, people say he doesnt want trout, keep in mind this time last year trout wasnt even in da equation.....
you heauxs keep throwing people at Floyd theres no way he can fight all the people yall askin for!!!!
Its so obvious yall want him to lose.....lol
BUT HE WONT....
IF PAC WAS FIGHTIN GUERRERO LOSS OR NOT, IT WOULD BE A DECENT FIGHT, PLUS HES FLOYDS MANDATORY .....
HES EARNED HIS FIGHT....
TRUTH BE TOLD PAC FIGHTING MARQUEZ WAS REALLY CHERRY PICKIN GOES WRONG.....
JUST LIKE THE 5TH FIGHT IS A WASTE OF TIME......
PAC SIMPLY COULDNT KEEP WINNIN AND LOST TO MARQUEZ WHOM COULDNT BEAT FLOYD RIGHT NOW WITH HIS NEW FOUND STRENGTH .....
WHATS FUNNY IS DA GUY THAT JUST KNOCKED MANNY OUT WOULD BE A CHERRY PICK 4 FLOYD LOL
Agree, but I;m not even confident he'll make the Canelo/Trout fight. If he does, he'll take another vacation for a year and a half.
He doesn't fight frequently enough.
Schaefer was just hollerin canelo wasnt ready........
Please go sit down, your hate is too obvious bruh....
This time last year Trouts best win was who david lopez, delvin rodriguez???
Come on man......
Why would he not wanna fight canelo??? or trout???
You actin like they monsters....
NEWSFLASH FLOYD AS BUILT HIMSELF TO BE ABLE TO FIT WHO HE WANTS....
Just enjoy him while he is fightin... same goes for pac and the rest...
yall throw da word duck out like yall warriors or some shat lol
last i checked cotto was always bigger than floyd. He was bigger than floyd at 140, 147, and you guess it 154 too. If i remember correctly that natural ww cotto turned down 6 mil to fight manny at 148 after the floyd fight. Not to mention he did also fight trout at 154 as well. Now if you want to say cotto was shot than fine. But that didnt stop everybody from crowning trout the second coming afterwards.
exactly!!!!!!

yall throw da word duck out like yall warriors or some shat lol
the only ones coming with excuses are those attempting to justify bush's point. Larry came with facts and ether'd this thread while youre coming with hypotheticals...excuses
Pretty much lol!!!!!!!
Seriously trout beats cotto and now hes a damn monster or something when floyd did the same thing.........
Bush is simply losing this argument plain and simple lol
So it not necessary to prove yourself clean?
Look NOTHING is stopping any fighter from testing himself, yet only 1 fighter is actually doing it, just one
Is it necessary for donaire to do it? Yet hes doing it anyway, to show how HE is clean
Actually everyone knows why Nonito is testing himself.... Its simply because of Conte, this way he can prove he's clean while having a nutritionist that is the most known ped pusher in the world...
Trust me donaire isnt taking those test for the hell of it.... Just like normal people dont show up to work 3 hours early lol
Hes taking them tests because of his associates plain and simple
thats hilarious. gotta love it, floyds a smart muhfcka
Lol pretty much lol
This fight will happen... Sad thing is people will say its because Floyd waited etc. truth be told Floyd is just too good for pacquiao at anytime or any level
I think Canelo hits harder but Floyds punches just surprised the sh*t out of him most of the time in that fight, he looked like he didnt know what happened until a second after he was hit.
What shane is saying is not contradicting at all...... Just everyone calm down and think. What made him say that Manny hit super damn hard... It was those angles and the punches he didnt see coming. What about Floyd??? It was that he didnt see the punches coming, but they werent off weird angles...
plus take into account sharp crisp punches hurt. Accuracy hurts as well. With the ginger he lands and he has decent speed but you can basically brace for impact. People are acting like the ginger is knocking out the cottos, and Lara's of the world.... He's not beating martinez now hes fighting small men. Hes fighting much smaller guys, and as someone mentioned, he was catching shane with some good shots but they were much slower and shane saw them coming..
WHAT HURTS ARE THE ONES YOU DONT SEE COMING. Look at mannys destruction at the hands of Marquez.... Manny did not see that punch coming at all And more importantly it was a very, very accurate punch...
Floyd hits hard, but has the skills where he doesnt have to over rely on swarming and engaging often as he's accurate as hell and hes gonna hit you. Thats a fact....
So the reason shane said Manny hit him hard was because the angles didnt allow him to brace for the impact. And they hit him at angles he just has never seen before. Remember hes the one getting hit not you armchair bastards lol
Shane isnt with Golden boy or mayweather promotions, unless some recent developments just happened, so why would he be trying to promote???
33 year old 147 lb pillow punching Floyd Mayweather hits as hard as a 22 year old JMW?
:)
You do realize that is getting old right??? Lets look at floyds last 5 fights and I need you to explain why a man that punches as if he has pillows for hands, think Paulie Malignaggi, is not getting walked down.... Its just like Bradley people say he has no power, but obviously he has enough as hes undefeated and people arent just trying to bulldoze him.....
A grown man hitting you in the face hurts. Hell especially a grown man that has been trained to throw a punch.
I find it funny that most people that have never boxed talk about people have no power, but this same individual is undefeated
YOU CAN'T DO THIS AND ACHIEVE THIS WITH SIMPLY NO POWER...
five-division world champion, who has won eight world titles and the Lineal championship in three different weight classes. Mayweather is a two-time Ring Fighter of the Year (winning the award in 1998 and 2007); he also won the Boxing Writers Association of America (BWAA) Fighter of the Year award in 2007 and the Best Fighter ESPY Award in 2007, 2008, 2010 and 2012. He is undefeated as a professional boxer.

WHEN YOUR K.O. RATE IS OVER 50% YOU CANT CALL THAT MAN A PILLOW FISTED FIGHTER......
YOU GUYS NEED TO STOP IT LOL
ALL THE ELITE FIGHTERS CAN BANG.....
Taking the easy way out I see, nice.
lol Yep.....
It seems the asshats from here on boxingscene are on teh ring panel...
No one offered the truth regarding Pacquiao and a catchweight with Pacquiao... Because if they wanna go off how one looks against a common opponent Floyd would be number 1 based on the ass whupping he gave Marquez....
he had a golf ball size welt on the side of his head too. he took some shots and certainly took more lumps in many years, that's for sure.
That knot on his head was there as well for the ortiz fight, when he rolls punches, he some times gets hit there.....
He didnt look too bad, Cotto actually looked worse imo.....
But once again, COTTO ISNT A BUM, AND HE WAS FIGHTING AT A GOOD WEIGHT.....
FIGHT WAS 9-3, 8-4 IF IT'S CHRISTMAS TIME OR COTTO'S BIRTHDAY.....
Of course he can and will take it. And, his fans will give it to him.
However, Schafer is saying this. I'm sorry Schafer word is not gospel. It's no better than Arum throwing numbers out.
I agree, Schaefer is known for talking sh-t.... I can see this fight doing 1.6 though.... In this type of economic climate, 2 million would actually be better than Floyd vs Oscar giving account to the economic climate......
But schaefer also said Ortiz vs Floyd was gonna do 2 million....LOL
Not a grudge at all, he simply does not like Floyd as a person but heavily respects his skills. Don't see anything wrong with that.
I think the issue comes in that it is a grudge.. I mean if you ask me who do I think would win outta Floyd or Pac, and keep in mind a fan asked him this.... And his response was, "I CANT STAND THE GUY"
Seriously, why would that be his response??? That ass whoopin he received hurt him badly....
No one asked him about how he felt about Floyd.... Its like Malignaggi.... If someone asked Malignaggi who would win outta floyd vs pac, and Malignanggi went on a rant about steroids, that would be totally off subject....
Don't matter he's:
Young
undefeated
mexican
backed by oscar
good looking(no homo)
Could do very well if he started acting in telemundo soaps
Mexicans love this kid already.
HE WONT EVEN DO 500K BUYS BY HIMSELF THOUGH. This works two ways, canelo is getting exposure off the mayweather brand. Think about it, when FLOYD FOUGHT Ortiz, Canelo was there wasnt he??? Or the fight prior, now I ask you, how many people really know about Canelo or rather would know about canelo, if he wasnt on the PPV undercard of the biggest draw in boxing??? (FLOYD) Its a revolving door.
You really think Shane vs Canelo would have sold a half million PPV'S? HELL NAW IT WOULDNT!!! But it was a decent addition to the card that already existed. Ring Kings was not really talking about Canelo, or Mosley or Vargas etc.
THERE HAS NEVER BEEN A CANELO 24/7......
Stop hating dude.....
