The stupidity here is endless. Pacquiao is a promoter creation full of weight draining strategies and opportunistic matchups after his opponents already lost. Hagler beat everybody and fought everybody. My favorite hagler fights are against mugabi , hearns , and duran. Pakiao and mayweather are overhyped with todays media. Like really who did they beat ? Canelo ( loll ) ? On his knee cotto ? Maidana ( cant even box against a boxer ) ? Paquiao made a name fighting old legends when he was younger , marquez at age 41 backfired though lol. Hagler was never put to sleep like that and any one who tried would end up pissing blood for days. Paquiao has skill ? Against who though ? Bradley a decent boxer boxed circles around his "speed". Its nice to look fast against rios or margarito. Please. Dont compare. The 80s boxers were so superior. Now boxing is garbage. Paper champs and they dont even fight mandatories , just names and the older with name value the better.
Glass chin is just a name. He would be the easiest fight. I dont even think he can beat brook or thurman. Got punished around in 140 and trying to talk his way into the top of welterweight.
Who cares? He just holding 160 belt hostage so its prob for the best. If he is not fighting 160 or wont go down to 154, retiring is best option. He should go to 154 and stay there that's the weight he fighting at anyways.
Is basically a few fights ago this guy was knocked out. Am I the only one that thinks khan is finished and he is talking his way into a retirement fight with mayweather ? I mean after he got knocked out he is being protected with bums to preserve the little name value he has. Wake me up when he fights someone with a pulse.
As long as it not amir glass chin khan any on that list is ppv worthy. Khan is finished and its just cashing out. Hes been extremely protected since ko loss to Garcia...why isn't he motivated to avenge that loss ?? hahaa def cashing out.
This bum always trying to talk himself into big fights. Beat someone with a pulse first. All i see is a cash out strategy cuz his glass has been exposed.
Watching on youtube, I had Matt beating Judah 115-112.....but since the Judges don't have the same capabilities of replay as us, I can concede Judah winning really close on scorecards...It was a close fight but Watching with all the capabilities Matthyse won...Matthyse gave away early rounds which made judah have a case.........The alexander fight was a joke....Alexander in the middle rounds wanted no part of matthyse but Round 9 showed some life.....I scored 96-93 Matthyse....I can't argue anything in Favor of Alexander as i did for Judah......Either way both alexander and judah benefited from hometown decisions. Alexander was a robbery.
Mayweather has never faced an all time great in his prime. Leonard faced loads, and he beat Duran x2, Tommy Hearns, the Marvelous one and Wilfred Benitez.
I think it's pretty sacrilegious to mention them both in the same sentence if the truth be told.
What he said.
Hagler is way better than de la Hoya. De la Hoya was just fame like canelo. All his big wins are past prime big names and lost all big fights. Hagler beat guys like Duran hearns the beast Mugabi and the fights he lost to me he was robbed. De la Hoya had some robberies in his favor(strum comes to mind) as well(cash cow) and haggler lost to Leonard for the same reason cuz Leonard had a bigger name. He didn't hurt haggler in any second and flurried the las 10 second of each round and robbed the fight one of the scorecards was a joke as well.
Your talking about a guy that won his first "title" at JMW by fighting an unranked WW at a catchweight and didn't even make the weight himself. Then he defended his title several times against....well........welterweights. And then he finally fought a ranked JMW, in Texas, with open scoring with scorecards that were filled out before the opening bell rang. Then he got the biggest payday of his life in a fight where he lost every single round.
So yeah, this just adds to the continuing list of bull**** that has been going on with a certain fighter in this sport for years.
This! I guess they need to sell something marketable like this bum. Not buying this **** on principle.
My theory is retarded??? i pay you to show me when was the last time Pacquiao fought with somebody that wasnt either almost 40, at an unfavorable catch weight, or coming from a loss (preferably KO) .................Pacquiao has not been tested against any real threat..... Marquez didnt KO him cuz hes a 38 year old lightweight going up 12 pounds...
hahahahahaha pacquiao been fighting at welter the last 4 years.....which full pledged welter did he fight?? JR MW Cotto at 145 , a 38 yr old lightweight at WW, 40year old mosley, JR MW Margarito 150?? lol incredible
Pacquiao is a bum with good chin... ...Bradley by UD..... Bob Arum will not put pacquiao in with bradley since bradley is young and has a pulse......unless he dont care about pacquiao losing and making bradley the top rank main fighter. No way that fight will happen......bob arum will either get cotto or marquez and continue ripping off the fans.
Canelo is such a hypejob. Can't respect a fighter that his belt was a gift.
Fed fighters in lower classes since he has the belt and when stepped up was embarrassed .Boxing is a business if hypejob canelo was my fighter I would pay extra to angulo to take a L and keep the money coming in with fights with now washed up big name cotto (to hype him even more). One thing that really pisses me off is when a few casuals tell me "ohh Canelo is like 42-1, hes one of the best ". This bum beat a 147 pound fighter going up in weight for his first belt and in his resume the only victory I give him credit for is Trout even though I think Canelo was GIVEN rounds in the second half of the fight without punching.
You people are always complaining.....Mayweather fans talking $#@ about this fight....and pacquiao fans talking $#@# about guerrero..... This fight is a good fight from an entertainment stand point. The only issue here is how Rios will deal with the new weight...Purists will say "you dont know sh** about boxing" for liking this fight...well then **** boxing. there are different markets of people who buy ppv...Casuals (like blood and violence) are probably half of the people paying and keeping the sport relevant so they demand fights like this and this is what they get......If you people complaining supported more pure boxing then you would get that supplied. Simple economics. Mayweather is the best #1 p4p right now ok we can end that topic there...but if u dont want to see 2 flat footed one dimensional fighters beat the crap out of each other, don't tune in. However, this is the kind of fight that warrants a boxing party with beers and food...Mayweather vs guerrero type of fight it's not for everyone ( I enjoyed by the way). Simple: DONT TUNE IN. I hope they have provodnikov vs alvarado in the undercard and few more mexicans beating the **** out of each other so I can invite people over and redeem the criticism I received by casuals in my Mayweather vs guerrero fight party.
Yeah. I have seen him fight 135 and 140 pounders and struggle and get KOd. I have seen him do his pitty pat shoe shine punches just to say he is fast and no hurting anybody. Almost saw him beat by Algeri. Yes. Amir Khan is a clear favorite.
:peeright::peeright::peeright::peeright:
Wow Boxing has become so ****ty...Im glad this guy lost. its sad how boxers reputation are being created by having them fight lesser opposition. Im glad this fraud fighter got discovered at its inception. Sometimes I wonder if all the "stars" of this era are really that good or are they just marketing creations since all i see in boxing is Ducking and Dodging all around. **** all the promoters.
Well independent of how the fights turned out (Matthyse vs Molina), this card looked like a showcase for all 3 fighters (Matthyse, Figueroa, Thurman)......Molina was going up in weight and Thurman is fighting an over the hill old Diaz.....I don't waste my time with predictable outcomes and didn't tune in. (watched the matthyse vs Molina ) replay after seeing all the tweets etc. I am assuming a lot of fans thought the same thing.....put on a competitive fight on paper and people will tune in (For example Porter vs Thurman) independent of how it plays out. Hopkins is also a waste of premium channel time. His fights are really boring.
