Clottey gets stopped late. His lack of workrate got exposed in the cotto fight, even tho I had him winning. And with the exposure, one also has to question if he really broke his hand in the marg fight. It may look alot like williams vs wright, but with a stoppage.
Based on his big mouth, Is he trying to be Ali? Trash talking his opponents, claiming to be the greatest etc......
I think every fighter tries to be somewhat like ali, and thats a good thing. But you have to have humor/humility to be that over the top, and people have to like you. People don't like floyd, except here.
Making people pay to come to your house to watch a fight? Thats pure ghetto shit right there.
The only time I've ever had to do that,
was with this hoodrat dude I used to buy weed from. I chose not to go and saw the fight elsewhere.
In my experience, the owner of house hosts the party, including paying for the fight. Everyone else either brings food or drink.
I don't know, but thats just weird to me.
"Hey guys, come over to watch the fight, but make sure you have your tickets".
I could not imagine having people over and asking them before they fight starts, "you got the money?"
:haha: Thats gold, not every1s packing tortillas
How can any1 hate on floyd and be a calzaghe fan at the same time. You and every1 here knows the answer. Its like comparing your album with one of 2pacs albums.
I will be. Even tho I don't wanna see Jones battered and KOd again, like hopkins said, its the end of the chapter for them. Its History, and it must be seen...and tivod
if he is undepeated through 40 fights, I cant see how he could ever be depeated.
The difference between depeated and undepeated is only a right shand away
I commend FSN for showing boxing, but what a shitty, unreliable network. Sometimes they decide not to broadcast the fights at all, in favor of other sports. Other times they show you a tape delay or start the broadcast late. I remember the Brewer-Lara fight starting off in the 8th round or some shit. Anyway, The Ring site seems to be the best way to watch this.
I know I have 5 or 6 channels of FSN and none of them show it.
He is the LeBron James of Boxing. They're both overhyped. but LeBron isn't as pure as a basketball player as Kobe Bryant is, and Manny isn't as pure as a Boxer as Floyd Mayweather. Max is absolutely right about his statement. The Michael Jordan of boxing is Ali or Sugar Ray Robinson.
This was exactly what I was gonna say. Except for the overhyped part.
I believe it LOOKS like its competitive for about 3 rounds, then BHop lands an overhand right that puts Jones to sleep. And it only looks competitive cause Hopkins chooses not too open up.
That leaping left hook of Vlads must be much harder than we all think. It doesn't even look that devastating, but its the same punch that landed on Ray Austin and put him to sleep as well
