Floyd would never knock out Margarito. There are 2 reasons. 1) Floyd doesnt hit hard. 2) Floyd would be too afraid to go for the KO even if he had the chance. Hell,Floyd could've knocked out lil ass Marquez but refused to go for it.
Running idea = sweet science of boxing.
Go watch floyd's matches when he was at 130 and 135 if you want to know what he's able to do in the ring.
Floyd isnt the same boxer at 147 as he was at the lower weights. The greater the danger the safer he becomes! He has no heart or warrior spirit!
They jacked up PPV price to the $70-75 range for non-HD and ticket prices to $300 minimum for the cheapest seats?
Some still would, some might not.
What's your take?
Absolutely not!! Mayweather is not worthy of my $$$. After De La Hoya sparring match I said never again. I will let someone else pay for it and watch it with them. Mayweather isn't getting my $$$. He's boredom at its highest level. I dont buy a PPV to fall asleep.
Floyd wants a rematch cause he knows he could lose this fight. His nuthuggers would tell you different though. Only floyd knows the real reasons. None of this speculation means anything.
Cotto-Mosley was closer. Cotto faded late which made it closer. I scored Floyd/Oscar 8-4. Through 8 rounds I had it 4-4. Then DLH does what he always does,fade late in fights,which allowed lil floyd to take control.
Yes Im a fan of both fighters. They both will fight anyone. Not just get in the ring but go after their opponent. I have the utmost respect for fighters that do that. Both Manny and Cotto are classy. They dont talk big shit about their opponents. They just get in the ring and do work.
Mosely isn't shot. However,he's not as good now as say 5yrs ago. When floyd turns 39 he wont be as good as he was when he was 34/35. Then again,floyd wont be boxing anymore by then.
I agree with most of the names already mentioned. Im surprised noone said Trinidad. @ 147 if he caught you flush you were walking on black ice in tennis shoes immediately!
In all honesty we boxing fans only know what we read or are told. Unless you're on the inside you dont know the truth. Roach could very well be telling the truth. I blame both Pac and Floyd for the fight falling apart.
I remember when floyd said to Marquez,"If you sign to fight me at 144 lbs,I'm gonna miss weight on purpose". When floyd did exactly that,I thought he was such a prophet. The hardest workers don't miss weight on purpose!!
Paul Williams is a bad matchup for anyone at 147. Especially low volume punchers. He'll outwork all of them. Do you know of any low volume punchers who say they cant be beat?? I can think of one.
I’ve been told that Kevin Iole’s number regarding the pay-per-view numbers for Mayweather-Mosley, which he reported at 1.1-1.2 million on Monday are indeed, very accurate. What I find interesting is that neither Golden Boy or HBO have released any numbers themselves
Sorry lil floyd, 50/50 split with Pac and no better. Bwahahahahahah :fu2:
He looks a lot stronger at 33 than he did at 29 in the division.
A hair slower... but a lot stronger.
He has definitely grown into a full welterweight.
He used PEDs while he was retired. He learned the ins and outs about them. He learned what can be detected by just a urine test and what can't. He comes out of retirement demanding OST. He needed to get bigger for when he encountered the bigger welters he avoided when he retired. It makes sense. Before you laugh at this,you can't prove I'm wrong can you?? I'm speculating just like the mayweather's are about Manny. Floyd's lovers went from never suspecting Pac of PEDs, to having no doubt. Just because the mayweather's started slinging these baseless insults. Floyd is definitely bigger now. I guarantee he's weighing more on fight night now,than ever before. Remember,there aren't any drug tests while you're retired. Floyd is the "Jose Canseco" of boxing.
LMAO you just said
"They agreed until they did research into what the testing really was. Come back when you get floyd's dick out of your mouth!"
Now you want proof? Well this proves that you know nothing and are making shit up.
Team Pac never agreed to the contract in the 1st place. Show me where Manny signed the contract.
Pacquiao and his team agreed to something that they knew nothing about what a bunch of retards. :rofl:
Show me proof that team Pac agreed to it in the 1st place.
They knew about the OST from the start and said they had no problem with it, come back when you've done some research fool.
They agreed until they did research into what the testing really was. Come back when you get floyd's dick out of your mouth!
It's really a shame Floyd gets no credit for beating an undefeated, prime Hatton or that grudge match win over Zab Judah. Zab was really game that night. And Chop chop even hurt Cotto at 140, that can't be held against Floyd for not being able to take a punch. And Margarito? C'mon? No way he wins that fight with Mayweather even if you feel he dodged him for Baldomir (the lineal champ at welter) based on attributes.
Belts just collect dust. Floyd needs to fight some high volume fighters. No one will beat floyd trying to counter him. Manny,Margarito and Paul Williams meet the high volume criteria. Shane just basically stared at him after 3 rounds.
I'll believe it when it's signed. Roach said the fight was a done deal last time but that was BS.
It was a done deal until team Mayweather pulled OST out their asses.
Freddie said the fight was a done deal, Retard :nonono:
Freddie evidently didnt have his facts straight dickrider. It's not like everything Freddie says is gold anyways. When Arum or Pac says it's done,then it's done.
So you admit that you didn't know what you were talking about?
I know as much about what really happened,as you do. That is a fact. Unless your part of Team Pac. Are you buboy??
Floyd is a dick with a big mouth. He talks like he's a killer and then fights all timid. I dont like hypocrits. He knows that if he talked like the nice,slick lil boxer he really is, noone will buy his boxing matches. It's why he created the villain role for himself. His style does not sell tickets. Most people who buy his boxing matches want to see him lose. If he'd go in the ring and walk his opponents down and destroy them,he'd get more props from me. Im sick of this insecure baby talking about how much money he has. I DONT GIVE A ****!!!! If you talk like a killer then be a killer. Dont be content to go to the scorecards. He also thinks he can make up rules now. I want to like the cat. He makes it sooooo hard. I could argue the only reason he has fans is cause of his skin color. These are the reasons I root against him. That blood testing bullshit just added to it.
I dont hate on floyd for his accuracy. His low volume and unwillingness to fight is what irks me. Especially when his big mouth roars like he's a lion. A high volume puncher with a sturdy chin and some pop would be hell for floyd.
Why should Floyd fight in a way that decreases his chances of winning? Do you expect Pac to shoulder roll and box?
He doesnt have to change what he is. It's working for him. However,he IS a bore. Many agree and his fans disagree. It is what it is. I would'nt like Pac if he boxed and shoulder rolled. If you talk like a killer then be a killer. Dont call yourself the greatest ever and not be willing to lay it all on the line in the ring. What floyd does isnt fighting. It's the safest form of boxing I've ever seen. Shoulder rolling and backing away before your opponent has even thrown a punch is pure bullshit!!!
Hey Mannie, do you pay attention to floyd when he boxes. He's safety 1st. He throws few punches. He's a bore. It's why he has to ACT like a villain. Me not being a boxer doesnt mean anything. Millions agree with what Im saying. I guarantee most people buy his matches to watch him lose. It's cool with him. He's getting paid. Wouldnt you love to see him attack like Pac/Cotto/Margarito or P-Will does? You know you do. Try reading articles by the various boxing writers. They will say floyd is skilled,and he is,but he hasnt fought the best competition at welter. Hell,other fighters will tell you floyd doesnt fight in the ring. He's just a counter puncher with great defense. I would like to see him let his hands go way more. He has great handspeed. That potshot shit annoys me. With that handspeed he could throw 5-6 punch combos all night. Then again he could get countered and KO'd and he knows it. If Chop-Chop and Judah can buzz you,Mosely can KO him.
