We have the colonializing Spanish to thank for this. Were it not for the Europeans stealing the "uncivilized" world, Manny would probably be a Buddhist today like the majority of the rest of the Asian world.
Not all Muslims are bad? Boy, that's a ringing endorsement, really changes a lot of minds I'm sure. Hey, Amir, how bout you denounce the terrorism that is going on and condemn those Muslims that are doing it.
Good for Khan. High profile Muslims need to disavow this extremism. only Muslims can make a change, not the likes of Facebook, Twitter, Merkel, the EU, Obama, or Clinton trying to protect them. Why wouldn't people be Islamaphobic when people are getting their heads chopped off and gruesomely tortured & killed by Muslims in the name of Allah?
I guess paulie will stop entertaining the thought of fighting his last fight in Europe, being the mandatory i think he was still entertaining fighting one last time, its best Paulie retires had a great career, now on to become the greatest boxing commentator of all time
If a great career is getting pummeled and pulverized and crying after; and if the best commentator of all time is endlessly tweeting like a girl of his obsession for Manny Pacquiao while never commenting once on those who have actually tested positive for PED's, then he's TBE.
Don't blame race. You lost a close fight. Just like GGG lost a close fight. Far and away the most racist boxing fans these days are blacks. And it's killing the sport.
PBC seems like it's coming around. Forget the ratings, the fights were good, and now the ratings will improve. PBC are now 1) having competitive fights, 2) matching with fighters outside the organization, & 3) in some cases (Wilder) doing VADA testing. Which are all the things that the PBC critics wanted from PBC. And things are already getting better.
I was a huge Margarito fan. But why is this man not in prison? Shame on Top Rank for even promoting him after the fact. Although that is the only way that a little justice could be done by Manny and also let Cotto exorcise those memories.
Uh-oh. This is starting to sound like a play to get out of the rematch. Chocolatito had to go into hell to win that first fight, & he knows the next time will be even tougher.
The perpetually overrated Hopkins. Best wins against lighter opponents- Trinidad, Pavlik, De La Hoya. He was no Hagler or Monzon. He will be remembered for one thing & one thing only: "I will never lose to a white person."
OK, so let's assume Paulie's accusations are true. If PED's allowed Manny to accomplish such amazing achievements, then why haven't all the other KNOWN PED cheats (including the ones from Mayweather's own gym) had the same amazing achievements? And why doesn't Malignaggi crusade against these other KNOWN users (including the ONES FROM MAYWEATHERS OWN GYM?)
Mayweather, his father, and both his uncles, who know boxing as good as anyone, knows what really took place in that ring. And that's why they are avoiding a rematch. You can laugh it off all you want, but go back and watch again slow motion. At full speed, everyone, myself included missed a very good fight. Paquioa outBOXED Floyd. And punished him (except the 11th). They all know that even with an injury, Floyd was hurt. A lot. You can laugh at the notion, but just do it. So many shots that Floyd threw were blocked or avoided, but of course compubox counts even a feint from Floyd as a scoring blow.
The funny part is all the sheep who bought and repeat the anti-GGG, pro Ward propaganda are now tripping over themselves because Virgil propped up GGG. Now they're being instructed to hate Canelo. Baaaaaa.
These guys have too many excuses. There needs to be better regulation of supplements, energy drinks, & food. Until then, they're gonna keep this crap up.
This is worse than Walters quitting. Hopkins got knocked out and had 20 and had twice as long to recover and he still quit. Memories of him quitting in the Dawson fight. He's a quitter. Period.
