3-1 favorite, its not my fault Pacquiao took over the sport, he is just going to get bigger. 500,000 people at the weigh-in, thats a huge fanbase
Wow, half a million people at the weigh in? Really?
I think he is the best fighter at 154, followed by Saul Alvarez, Lara, Williams and Kirkland in that order
So beating a guy with a glass eye makes you the best? and how in the hell is Williams better than Kirkland?
How's Kirkland better than Williams?
Kirkland just KO'd a top dog in Angulo. While Williams is to busy geting ktfo in 2 rounds and getting the worst decision in boxing history.
you stop a fight when a fighter does not answer the questions correctly you stop a fight when a fighter can no longer protect himself and isnt fighting back that wasnt the case just because Cotto boxed well its not reason to stop the fight
I had given Tony rounds 4 and 9 and I think he might have won the 7th round
whats crazy is that my score card and I know you disagree all three judges each gave Tony one of those rounds as well in other words in terms of my score card the fight was till there to be won.
But I again will be straight this wasnt going to the cards Margarito was making it his fight by the end of the 9th and it was clear Cotto was tired the 10th round will always be a mystery but I do not believe miguel had enough left to do what he was doing earlier in the fight.
I believe we would have had a Margarito ending to the fight
This^^^^^^^ By the end of the 9th cotto looked like he was about to pass out while tony looked like he was getting ready to kill someone.
Cotto is not Berto, when are people going to understand this?
You can only do what your opponent let's you, and believe me cotto would not lay on the ropes only throwing 40 punches a round. It was a great performance from Ortiz, but cotto is a different league, and different fighter. Very ignorant statement.
Your right cotto would be running for dear life not throwing like in the Pacquiao fight.
The man looked confident,was mean,boxed beautifully,moved better than he has in years..learned how to turn his opponent and clinch,he clinched,used his leverage and strength to control a huge Margarito,my god he looked great,the man looked down right great,i can't lie his combos were like a work of art.Cotto got that confidence back he has been lacking since the 1st Margo fight.the man stared Satan in the eyes and i think he will be better for it.
Cmon dawg a 38 year old mosley looked like a beast against margarito and that was before the injury.
He has always been number 3 on my personal list right behind Floyd Mayweather and Sergio Martinez. I think he justified that ranking last night.
I know some of you have him NO. 1 or 2. Does he keep that spot or did he plummet in your ranking?
Just behind Marquez
pushing off is something you do.
only thing is he should have used his shoulder more instead of using his arms.
should have used the elbows too. catch an elbow to the throat and face a few times and idiot won't be coming in head first anymore.
that ref was bull****.
so are you.
but isnt that illegal?
how do u give a wink to ur corner to let them know ur getting ur assss lit retard... Cotto did not look weak after the 9th cuz there was no 10th for ur info... Cotto looked a lil exhauseted but if the fight would had gone to distance Cotto would had won anyways.. Margaritio did NOT have a chance bro.. live with it.. Cotto is the better boxer fighter etc... Margarito is done...
boxer yes, fighter fukk no
He is a bum and tbh it would be a dent in Floyds magnificent legacy but seeing as lots of trolls think he'd beat Floyd it would help work in favour of his resume & then people can't say crap such as ''Floyd ducked Khan & ran into retirement, Khan would of beaten him blah blah blah''
so all he has to do is beat a bum and a midget and he's the GOAT?
The guy has beaten around half a dozen or more hall of famers.
42-0 (currently)
5 weight world champion.
Outstanding amateur.
Biggest draw in boxing history.
1998 & 2007? Ring magazine fighter of the year.
Highest punch accuracy in boxing history.
Possibly the best defence in boxing history (Pernell Whitaker could make a case)
That isn't half the ****.
He's clowned just about every fighter he has ever fought. Dominated beyond words. He is so great no other fighter has been studied anywhere near as much.
A win over Khan & Pac on top would be the icing on the cake.
The All-Time Greats dont win their fights via suckerpunch.
Well he's pretty much done everything else has he not? Pacquaio is the only fighter out there IMO worthy of even sharing a ring with Floyd. If Khan wants a shot I recommend he earns it & gets some credible wins at 147 before shooting his mouth off like he is anywhere near in Floyds league.
Damn, i forgot he has to go thru Jessie Vargas first.
beats an up & comer (say for example Mike Jones gets a few more good wins under his belt against higher level opposition)
Say Floyd beats him, he beats Amir at Wembley & finishes off by beating Manny Pacquaio.
Do you admit/think he will go down as the G.O.A.T?
I personally think he is already. Best boxer I've ever seen tbh & right up their with Roy & Sugar Ray.
Bit of a side note but when Khan moves upto 147 (to avoid Matthysse, Prescott, Maidana etc) he's not fighting Floyd because he'll get knocked clean into retirement by Kell Brook. Just putting that out there.
You may laugh but lets be fair Brooks fought at 147 for ages, been as high as 154 & flatlined guys (Not saying he's fought at the highest level) But remember this kids the same age as Khan. He's as fast as Khan, more skillful, stronger, hits twice as hard, sets his shots up better. Better defence, combinations, footwork, balance, etc...
Stop it, just stop it.
It's not going down as one of Mayweather's best wins, but to be fair, even if he had beaten Victor, I doubt most people would've give him credit anyway.
After all, 90% of his opponents are cherrypicks, right? :smashfrea
Nah, if he would have beaten victor the right way i would have gave him credit, just like i did with the mosley fight.
Clottey lost every single round because he was too scared to throw in case he got countered.
"Bang!...Bang!...Bang!...You wanna throw sometime?...Bang!"
3 exciting undercard fights, in typical mexican brawling fashion:
Lopez nearly beat Vargas..
Morales made history..
Cannelo nearly got exposed..
And Mayweather was fighting offensively and throwing combos!
A controversial ending yes, but all of you must've enjoyed last night? I wouldn't feel cheated if I paid for that..compare that to paying for hay/klit fight...
You paid for the hay/klit fight?
As one of the best pound for pound Mayweather should act more like a role model and not like a piece of ****! He needs to get knocked out by the sympatic Pacquiao. Good vs evil, the good will win! Mayweather needs to get knocked the **** out!
Co-sign this powerfull post
Dumb gets dumber.
