Moderators please delete
It's all good, brotha. Honest mistake.
Man I been watching boxing my whole life. There's nothing more than a punchers chance of Manny winning. You guys just don't get it Floyd is Bigger and faster than Manny. Hand speed I'll give Manny maybe. You guys are so blinded by the fact that Manny is good but not great. The main stream media mad ppl who would benefit from the fight financially are backing Manny. I can tell you this its a lot of ppl who hope Manny will win and may state that publicly. However a lot of those same ppl also know Floyd could quit possible Gatti, Manny and that's just facts. Floyd is so much physically strong than Manny it's insane. He's stronger very strong. He just don't sit on his punch one be his hands and to he doesn't want to be vertical flatfoot or stationary. Like he in objective how many guys have you seen Floyd not man handle and move them to where he wanted. Canelo cotto and maidana are all bigger than Floyd out weighed him. However, he's so strong he man handle them when he need too. You can say what you want. Barring a one hit a quitter from Manny he gets beat up and beat up bad. Unless he close up and try to Dave grace like everyone else. Should have Floyd took on more dangerous challengers yes. Should he have stop more fighters yes. No matter what you feel about that. He's a great great fighter.
Floyd is a great fighter. Yes. And so is Pacquiao. You calling him just another "good" fighter is just straight up disrespect. There's a sea of "good" fighters out there. Lumping an ATG like Manny in with them is crazy, bro. Pac got his flaws but he's going down as an ATG, and it's not because the media created him. He became an ATG by what he did in the ring.
And if you think it's going to be some easy breezy white washing on May 2nd, then all I can say is...we'll see. Three more weeks and we'll see.
every time I drop by this thread every few days or so the same exact conversation is happening :lol1:
if I come back in 4 days (and 4 days after that) it's guaranteed to be the same back & forth, it's pretty awesome, lets see if y'all can keep this up til May 2 of 16'
could be an obscure guiness world record of sorts
Heard Santa Cruz is gonna be on the undercard and will fight Abner Mares. Any truth to the rumor? I doubt it, but maybe someone knows something I don't. Heres hoping.
that would be f**kin sweet, I hope it's true
That's ****ing retarded.
How the hell is Larry's "Go Fund Me" account going to cover that?
so far larry has 6 bucks donated to his account
so if my math is right he can now afford a packet of ketchup at the concession stands that night
Everything we say are just are all speculations.
All it is. Speculation. I love how some of these f@gs think they can dissect the fight on paper and that they know exactly what's going to transpire on May 2nd, even down to the exact rounds in which turning points are going to occur. Lmfao.
F**king dorks.
Just purchased my tickets to the fight!

plus you're a sucker, 257 grand for 2 tickets is robbery

lets go ahead and lock this thread up once and for all...as a Pac fan every time I see it, it just gets me butthurt about May 2nd

meh cancel it
Why do I get the feeling that at the end of the fight one these guys will blame their loss on butt-rot or gas pains?
Lmao remember when Clottey blamed his loss to Pacquiao on a case of the runs? :lol1:
What I want is to see the video of Pac injuring his shoulder. We didn't see a video of it originally happening, we didn't see any video of him having trouble with his shoulder while training. We didn't see any video of him grimacing even once while throwing his right during the fight. We didn't see a video of him mentioning his shoulder at all during the fight.
Hell, we didn't even see a video of the surgery. Didn't see any MRI's. We didn't even see a scar.
Did this shoulder injury really occur, or what? Using your logic, it's very suspect.
Pacquiao had his surgery performed by Neal ElAttrache, an elite surgeon who performs surgeries on the who's who of premier athletes -- such as Kobe Bryant & Tom Brady. He's not going to risk his reputation by playing along with a fake surgery for the sake of an excuse.

That said, once you enter the ring like Pacquiao did, all bets are off and all excuses are thrown out the window. Period. Manny lost fair & square, and he shouldn't have said a word about it after the fight. He lost, Floyd won, end of story. Nobody wants to hear it (the excuses) like Teddy Atlas said.
If Manny was that concerned about the injury then you delay the fight no matter how many people it pisses off. And if it occurred during the fight, then oh well -- sh*t happens and fighters get hurt during the course of fights. It happens. But you just can't use it as an excuse. It only makes you look like a sore loser after the fact. Just bite the bullet and tip your cap.
all Pac has to do is finish the fight on his feet and the judges will gift wrap the decision for him....
damn y'all got that good sh*t in Philly, pass me that blunt homey
This thread needs to get un-stickied. It's been well over a month, and the only purpose it serves is a shelter for delusional #48ers.
I'm a #48er and personally I would've been happy with this thread disappearing on May 3rd because seeing it just makes me butthurt, but I get that a fight of this magnitude needed at least a few weeks of post fight discussion. Or even a month I guess. But jeezus, we're coming up on a month & a half now.
Lets dig up a grave, toss this thread in there, and bury it. I'll help shovel.

Ok tell me why you think it will be competitive.
Why? Is it going to change your mind? All you Floyd fans want to talk about is how on paper blah blah f**king blah and it's going to be a white wash. Fights aren't won on paper.
And you know what, if it is a white washing in Floyd's favor, I'll be the first one here giving him props. Believe that sh*t.
We'll see May 2nd.
Apparently Floyd said something about Shawn and this clown has never forgotten about it.
Didn't realize that Floyd said something about Shawn. I wonder what he said exactly.
Sad, people are talking about this fight. Wasn't even worth talking about 2 days after the fight.
Lmao it's mostly the same dudes too, I bet it's the first thing some of these dudes do in the morning...rub their eyes and then scramble for their phone so they can get to the May/Pac thread :rofl:
You guys keep talking about greed...
Its not greed its called business.
Well a lot of times greed & business go hand and hand.
Somebody correct me if I'm wrong, but I heard the other day on ESPN radio that none of the boxing press will be allowed into the actual fight that night, and instead will watch it from an MGM ballroom that night on a feed. That way they'll have that many more seats available at the absolutely galactic prices that those seats will be going for.
Lol call it what you want...business, greed, whatever -- but that sh*t is f**ked up :lol1:
Not a single significant punch by Garcia
Busted face too
lmfao how a dude can win a fight without a single f**king moment in the fight
and also get dominated in the 2nd half of the fight
