He also talked trashed to algieri leading up to the pacman fight. Khan is one big joke. There are better fights but if pacquiao-algieri didnt happen, this wouldve been viewed differently. Im interested in watching this fight, but it doesnt and shouldnt deserve him the mayweather-pac winner.
they also say pacquiao drained oscar. oscar was the one dictating the terms on that fight and he was highly criticized for dragging pacquiao all the way to welterweight. Nobody knew he would be drained come fight night and that ain't pac's problem. anyone who agreed to fight at catchweights too that ain't the winning team's problem.
Floyd was being a hypocrite when they take pride on saying "we dont do cathweights" and then a month later comes 152lbs against canelo when he already fought at 154 a couple of times. but i dont have a problem with that since canelo agreed to it and fought with a stupid strategy nonetheless the weight didnt matter.
when he paid marquez was the more stupid thing.
They're comparable. But im going with the mayweather win. At some rounds in donaire-rigondeaux fight, only a punch separates them, i mean, one punch landed from donaire the round couldve been his. If only one punch separates them every round, thats not domination at all. I get it, he made donaire look like shet and made him miss a hundred shots, but offensively, given rigondeaux skills and the opportunities donaire has given him in his mistakes, i believe he couldve done more. He couldve knocked him out of there. Floyd over corrales win was a greater win because floyd really grabbed his destiny for greatness and KOed corrales. I didn't hear boos in there unlike rigondeaux win. Nobody wouldve called him boring after he koed donaire but he didnt take it. Still a fukin good win doe.
The century's only 15 years in. Just catch the next "fight of the century".
I dont think someone can surpass the love/support for pacquiao in the next 15 years in the Philippines. So even if there's another *fight of the century in my lifetime. It wouldn't be even close to this feeling.
bitch made motherfuckers do what they can, real motherfuckers do what they want.
I dont have a choice bra, this is my career we are talking about. Its not like I call the shots. And we're at australia right now, a long way from home.
Dont worry bro, just imagine you know how many people die each day..for sure a few manny and floyd fans will die before the fight even happens, so it could be worse lol
thanks bro, it just sucks that you watched almost their entire careers and then right at the pinnacle you wouldn't be able to witness it.
Very good read. I hope it opens the minds of some here. If u truly view it in unbias situation i dont see how someone can defend floyd with his actions
That was a long time ago bro. Even if it was today Ali wouldve still done the great things hes done because he is who he is. Its timeless. Whos floyds frazer? Whos floyds george? Nobody. Ali was hated but at the same time respected, floyd is being mock anywhere in the world.
So your saying Manny cant beat the Cotto that Floyd beat ?
The manny that beat margarito can beat the cotto floyd beat. Even that cotto had a hard time with margarito. Cmon cotto was a lot slower against mayweather, only more discipline and came up with a decent game plan.
Stupid refs who immediately break fighters when theyre still fighting inside are also ruining the sport. I remember at castillo-mayweather 1 when the ref said "calm down", theyre in the middle of the fight and youre telling them to calm down. Hahaha
Manny can even make 140. Cotto weighs 159 on fight night when he was at 140, so if hes fighting at 154 i dont know how much he rehydrates at fight night, probably close to 170. So pac who usually enters weigh ins at 145 and fight at 149 is going to fight a super middleweight? Whats the point of this rematch, both are far from each others weight class and both are being handled by roach. Whether cotto was weight drain or not in their first fight you can make a case or not, but that was the weight they came close.
No idea who Dwyer is but he obviously DKSAB that's for sure. GGG doesn't have concert feet first off, he moves well and cuts off the ring great. Khan with his pitter patter two handed shots would get caught with a straight left and be out cold. Thurman hasn't proven anything yet as much as I like him.manny would still beat any welter not named Floyd and at 152 would batter Canelo around the ring the same as Floyd did.
This. Pacquiao has no business fighting at 150 and above. Hell he can even make 140 easily and that would even benefit him not drain him. Saying khan, thurman and brook is too much for pac is just plain crazy. and GGG would slice those 3 in the same night.
They barely showed any highlights of the first fight
Its cool, I got them right here doe
No matter what the stans say. They should atleast give credit to maidana, it was close fight, i scored it a draw, but if im the judge id also lean towards floyd.
That was 8 round to 4 mayweather. Its one those close fight clear winner fight, cotto wasnt totally outclass and outbox, he was always in the round like maidana did. Floyd-maidana is closer imo since the fighter who lose did more damage than the winner where in Floyd-cotto its just about the same to both. If i have to chose between a rematch between cotto and canelo, then ofcourse cotto. But if there are others like khan and pacquiao then Id go with them.
What if C A T is spelled DOG? Mayweather didnt want none of them, he didnt want prime margo, prime cotto, prime pwill and pacquiao. He just returned after those guys destroyed each other. And fans are buying his "for me cotto never had a loss" like wtf. If you have balls and pride in you when a fighter whom you believe is lower than you and talks to you like that in person, you wouldnt allow it, you would do something about it. Please post that vid again so we can laugh at maywethers face when margarito talked to him. He even was looking for margo after margo left so he could answer the interviewers questions right. Hes going to say "yes i will fight him" but make sures margarito wasnt around already. Like LOL. TBE is one great joke. I used to be a big fan. Business is now the new excuse. And they like to brag around and say "so what i have money" all his fans were contaminated already. So what im a rich coward hahahahaha. I was a fan until the ali-norton comment.
You do realize that Pac wanted nothing to do with Margarito when he was relevant dont you? Or that Pwill was calling Pac out as well? Or that Pac wanted NOTHING to do with Cotto at a comfortable weight? How about the fact that Roach himself said that PAC's TEAM blew the chance for him to fight a "prime pac". Just say anything to make Mayweather look bad whether its true or not, right?
Where was pacquiao when margarito was relevant? Yes he was at 130 you askholl, pac requested for that fight right after DLH Fight. Where was floyd? He had a fake retirement. They wanted a fair weight thats why catchweights are made and agreed upon. It has done before and it is done until now, atleast pacquiao is not being a hyprocrite and says "we dont do catch weights" then there you go, canelo-floyd at 152. Pwill and martinez who are both at 160 are calling out pac, what does that make them?? Mayweather does these fk all to himself so dont blame me if people looked him that way. Im always a fan of what he can do, but i wont defend him with his BS, like im not even defending pac for choosing algieri.
Bradley has proven he is tough for anybody, all that conditioning heart and will. At this point of floyds career he'll also be a tough fight, but i dont think he would win. Floyd wouldnt respect his power and would have a playtime in the inside. Bradley aint outboxing floyd on the outside either, but yes he wont be easy.
I think it aint that bad, i think hes no bradley or malignaggi. Pac started koing people on his 8th fight. Algieri on his 12th. We dont know if he continues it like 21-9ko, 22-10ko, 23-11ko. His percentage will or maybe soon rise.
Hahahahahahahahahaha seriously wtf. But i always like jr though. If he trains and focus damn well he can really bang, dude aint scared of nobody, living the life though, he took all thats left of martinez when they fought, cotto better be thankful. Cotto aint beating the sergio that chavez banged with, thats just me ofcourse.
Im not really big on guerrero even with his destruction of berto, the fight that got him the floyd fight. He just lacks the physical gifts to be a top fighter, he has the determination and the balls. But to answer the topic, yes he needs a different perspective and approach, he might find his way back to the drawing board. He needs arizas and the memos of this world too.
It'll be an interesting rematch due to the things that happened after they first fought not the fact that it was a close fight before. Im still going with floyd in the rematch but please no. Just pacquiao.
Pacquiao bradley II. Watching the fight live i thought pac was really doing horrible, and would get jmm'd anytime. Rewatched it countless times, pac was doing fine actually.
Floyd-delahoya/hatton: i thought delahoya did enough, after rewatching it its 8 to 4 for floyd. I thought floyd-hatton was never that good of a fight, after rewatching it, it was actually the last fight put on a master offense, maidana floyd wouldve look the same in his prime.
The thing is, fights appear faster to me after rewatching them, during live they look fukn slow or am i that impatient and have too much expectations.
