Wrong. Next time, ask for my advice.
Yeah could of went either way which is why dont use your staring technique
My only worry is the judging if it is a close fight.
I had Thurman clearly winning their fight but one judge found a way to give it to Garcia.
Agreed, two judges had the last round for Porter..lol

Garcia has a lot of problems with pressure fighters but then pressure fighters have a lot of problems when he hits them.
I like Porter and Porter seems bigger but I have a gut feeling for Garcia tonight
But then maybe I should pick with my brain
So far tonight these ESPN mismatches and announcers are disgusting and I even used to like this lady
I guess they knew Crawford vs Benavidez will make up for it all
Yeah Kovalev has experienced some skullduggary in the ring but in this case he was totally hoodwinked by Alvarez's crazed but actually intimidated ploys. Then in the ring Alvarez continued this ploy with just enough hits to the body to keep Kovalev complacent and off guard against that sudden massive overhand right
Wth, he's game, he's game, he's game.
Of course he's game and yet they threw him in with a guy who arguably has beaten many of the best.
How how about safety first instead of brutality first...

Virgil Hunter: “ Anthony Joshua is the best. But styles make fights. Styles make fights. It would be a waste of time to go to cruiser, just leapfrog ".
With MMA more popular than the recent past and with both USAB and USAW based in the same building, you would think it might happen. The public schools used to have both in the early 1900s but wrestling and boxing coaches have grown apart culturally and geographically and often closed minded to each other; maybe all the fakery of pro wrestling had a lot to do with it. MMA is seeing a nice revival today and I see MMA and boxing in the same gym but never boxing and wresting, which seems silly being that it should be popular with many parents but then parents, modern schools, USAB and USAW are often just really silly.
lol how??? Stuff like this goes down every week in boxing gyms. i've seen many guys get absolutely destroyed who had no business sparring top pro's or amateurs.
And how do you know what Team Greene supposedly said?
After getting knocked down, Greene's opponent asked "are you sure you only been boxing three weeks"
State and federal boxing laws state that boxing personnel (anyone with any kind of boxing license or passport) must always act upon indication of potential and actual adverse medical indications in in either sparing or official matches, noncompetitive match making, deception, etc.etc..
Believe it or not people, ESPN HBO and other Networks, actually hire people to read fans reactions to Teddy Atlas and other outrageous over the top silly commentary and if the fans hate it and say they won't watch them, ESPN and the rest will pull the plug on Teddy and HBO"s what's his name who pissed Floyd off, then they got rid of him, the commentator who said , If I was 50 years younger I would kick your a-ss Floyd , he got canned to.
So they probably heard the backlash and pulled Teddy, because of his outrageous commentary and that's that, nothing he can do about it.
He was annoying ass hell anyway and it was to fake and over the top to even listen to at times, him yelling at everyone and then that other clown from first take acting a fool himself Steven A Smith so i don't blame them it was starting to get cartoonist at times.
I don't know I'd say it's more about age discrimination because most have been really mad at Max and Lampley for years
Ironic that the robots who blame Oscar's golden boy (e.g. Erik Morales and Canelo) use of muscle peds on cows are the same hell bent on denying Luise Ortiz his medicine; even though governing bodies "traditionally" give waivers for blood pressure meds 99.9 % of the time.
Floyd's personality is about doing all it takes to "appear" excellant..be it appearing the most rich, most happy, most generous, etc which is why he can't take public criticism, cant handle seeing old baby mommas with other men, don't take real risky fights but will fight pro wrestlers in the octagon, etc.
So yeah Floyd would probably do all it took to get best and newest PED while simultaneously trying to make it appear that he wants to clean up the sport by making threatening opponents like Manny appear as the cheaters

Welcome back to Zaroku and a welcome to new player 1bad65. maracho will not be added to the game this week as is standard practice for new players making an unsuccessful pick. Better luck next time, man.
Nah I give Garcia six decisive rounds and Porter just five decisive rounds but I say these judges have a history of willful confusion for effective aggression. Speaking of which, Siablo/Pick Em Crew I see you hiding in there.
That's cool, man. You got a right to score fights however you please, but I gotta go off of the official results I'm afraid. And me and siablo share the work of the Pick 'em now that john l has departed, though siablo's much more prone to teasing folk who pick wrong than me... I tend to keep it pretty much down to business (with a lil friendly rivalry here and there) but we all got our own styles.
Anyways - the thing about not adding you to the leaderboard just yet is established practice - I used to include a statement to that effect with each score tally but I've had that much catching up to do I haven't bothered cos we've hardly had any new players in months, but if you wish to keep playing you're absolutely welcome and I look forward to seeing your name on the results board after this weekend.
Peace, man.
K-G
I shouldnt enable addiction but my response to Siablo's request was not to gamble on staring contests especially with shy guys with fathers dedicated to a fault. On the other hand, I think that the main reason that even Spence agrees with me on the scoring is because he seems intent on bringing Porter's confidence down a notch, being that even highly skilled boxers will always have trouble with that kind of old-school relentlessness.
Edit for Kenny. Study Walcott's (not the one from Jersey), Armstrong's, Marciano's, and Grebe's windmill style
There is no defense for Arum, he has been terrible for fans of boxing.
Oddly enough, the fan base who should despise him more than any other is Pacquaio fans, he has screwed over Manny time and time again and now that he's near the end of his career he screwed him over with Horn twice. Arum is the reason Manny will end up broke.
So poor he owes 100 million in taxes..lol
Thing is both Philippines and the IRS are both trying to tax him for the same thing. it don't work like that but then remember the IRS was caught bullying Christians and conservatives so go figure
my dang smart phone can't spell
Right. It could end up being a good thread ?!?!?
Why are you staking me from thread to thread. It has a homosexual vibe. You shouldn't be worried about me you should be betttering yourself trough your beliefs which is 90% of what you post. Again, I don't come interrupting your threads with none sense.
If you want to have a conversation abou what I wrote. Try reading it first. And not chopping pieces and spreading misinformation about what I wrote.
lol PEDs peds post post post. . Don't worry net stalker. My next thread is going to be about that!!!
lmao.
#mythbusters
So far I have been breaking down your diatribe with quite a few questions but your only responses have been name calling, threats, and/or more nonsensical tangents. About the only thing that makes any sense to me concerning slander is the fact that Arum calls Broner a great fight for Manny and meaningless for Garcia but that could possibly be that its a forgone conclusion that Manny is way past his prime.
Again I welcome challenges so please jump on in. Oh btw, when or you going to get to the part of your thread title concerning Arum ducking fighters?
Speaking of slander, James likes to run with all kinds of slander against Manny Pacqiauo by promoters Oscar and Floyd, etc that they settled out of court for after Floyd's own PED tests were subpoened.
I've heard Oscar never wanted to open up his ped test either
Why are you calling Floyd a megalomaniac because another megalomaniac said so? Lol
Arum is anything but senile. He's calculated. Ellerbe is a side kick. Haymon is a puppeteer. But unlike bob he keeps his mouth shut. Isn't that a reverse stereotype in motion? Floyd is an actor. He plays the villain to sell fights. He actually a sensitive over emotional guy with his own story. Unlike, Arum Floyd cares about fighters.
Megalomaniacs are all about the money and Money May pays Ellerbe and Haymon for their information age and keeping it that way because they're synergy stems from seeing Floyd as a supremacist sex symbol that just keeps making it rain. Don King, Arum, Haymon, Oscar and 50 Cent showed Floyd how to get the dames so he extended this deceptive synergy toward the music game. But the Bible shows this sex magick has Satan to blame.
Bob Arum is a megolmaniac. If he ever shut up, none of this information would be public in the first place. But he has to tell you how smart he is, because that's his nature. For instance.....
-----
"Top Rank promoter Bob Arum said that Manny Pacquiao should blame himself for his painful loss against the Australian boxer Jeff Horn.
Bob Arum said that the Filipino boxer has no one to blame for his loss but himself and said that he already warned Pacman. He also claimed that the overconfidence of Pacman’s team did not help the boxer.
Arum also explained that the team didn’t help the Filipino boxing icon by boasting of an easy victory over the undefeated Horn. He also explained that Horn was a competent fighter as he watched its fight in New Zealand .
https://philnews.ph/2017/07/05/manny-pacquiao-blame-loss-bob-arum-says/
--------
Bobs always blaming somebody for something. It's his team. It's ariza. It's roach. It's Haymon. He's always pointing fingers. What's the big deal if I point the finger at him for once ?
He says he watched Horn. This is misleading. He signed Horn for his US rights. You'd have to read a dozen articles on the subject to be aware of it.
Professional Boxing writers are well aware of things like this, and everything else I posted in the thread and more. Yet they still promote any lies that come out of Arums mouth- unquestioned Why don't they dissect Arum, the same way they dissect fighters personal lives ??? Idk. Maybe theirs a conflict of interest?? Lol Either way, that's not fair and unbiased coverage.
Second. As Pacquiao promoter I beleive he should be representing pacquaios promotioonal interest. How is this article helpings Pacquiaos career? Telling him in private is helping. Telling him in public is shifting the blame from his company to his client. He takes at least 40% of Pacquiaos money gk damage his reputation as a fighter. Lol
You guys are welcome to state your opinion. This is America and that's your right. i don't care what you think of him, thats your right. One thing I did notice is nobody posted anything showing that Bobs a decent guy??
------------------
http://www.espn.com/blog/dan-rafael/post/_/id/17168/arum-has-big-plans-for-jeff-horn-and-they-could-include-pacquiao
Arum told ESPN he has big plans for Horn next year in the United States.
Arum has Horn, who represented Australia in the 2012 Olympics, in mind as the next opponent for either Timothy Bradley Jr. or Jessie Vargas, both Top Rank fighters and former welterweight titleholders.
----------------
Here's Arum planning to manufacture another fighter with his Paper Mill. He can get anybody a resume in anytime if you actually beleive that half his fighters are worth a damn in the first place
Yet, Horn didn't face Vargas of Bradley. He went straight to Pacquiao. Here's why.
Pacquiao’s contract with Top Rank is said to have expired at the end of 2016.
--------------
MANNY Pacquiao insisted the recent fight he had against Jeff Horn for the World Boxing Organization (WBO) welterweight title was his last under his current contract with Top Rank.

Wow finally a video that makes a lot of sense about Arum's corruption
