If Mayweather does retire.........
If Mayweather does retire after one more fight and beats whoever it is, who would you want him to fight and if he does beat him do you think that he would be the best fighter ever. Personally if he beat shane mosley at 147 that could happen.
Wow ... I hope the whole fight didn't look like that. Those punches looked horrible. Those are some of the slowest punches I've ever seen. I'm not sure how those hurt him so badly, unless he took a lot of punishment early.
I =know when i had seen them i was like was it the video or was Maskaev really throwing those slow ass punches
Blaming his weight is crap. He comes down from 175-180 pounds sometimes and hits 140, so 147 isn't an issue. It's the fact he tried to push around a guy who was bigger than him and could take his punches. Ricky can't push the world around like his fans want to make people believe. The Tszyu fight was an abomination of a refereeing job going both directions. Not to mention Tszyu was nearly 36, and had only had 2 fights in over 2 years, so it's not like he was beating a prime Tszyu in there. Ricky isn't this godly fighter who has pounded into submission 41 opponents. Sorry, but 15 WBU defenses is a crock of shit, and outside of 2 of his last 3 fights, Hatton's resume is a laugher. Give Mayweather that resume, and tell me you wouldn't rip on Floyd.
I guess you would take Thaxton and Magee over Judah, seeing as Judah lost because he fell asleep at the wheel vs Baldomir. He was up about 4-2 going into the 7th, and was cruising...just cruising too much.
Last 4 years? How about the first 6 being better than hatton's entire resume. PS, when Floyd was fighting for his first WORLD title at 21, Hatton was fighting 1-2 Kevin Carter in NJ, a guy who ran up an impressive 9-55 record. So please, don't even try and skew resumes because Ricky has 2 big time fights and because both happened in the last 1 1/2 years.
I totally agree I feel that Ricky Hatton should not reaaly even be in boxing. Think about it Hatton has a tough time making 140 and know hes going back there where he really will get beat and going to 147 he was too small and didnt feel comfortable? The guy has no jab, the only way he can beat you is if he gets inside sometimes he cant even do that Floyd will MURDER Hatton. Bottomline, I GIVE HATTON NO CHANCE AGAINST MAYWEATHER!!!!NONE!!!!!!!!!
you know what? doing some light sparring with the pacman would immensely help dlh with dealing with the speed of mayweather. pac's faster than pbf, so if oscar could at least get accustomed to pacman's speed he would have an easier time with floyd's speedy hands.
Woa Pacs faster than Floyd? Dont think so!
Yes, i did have it a draw but that was without considering the knockdown by Hopkins. The sweet science is what your boy Mayweather does, hit and not get hit -though i'd wish he'd throw many more jabs/punchs- not somone like Winky who gets his a ton and walks in on his opponet, that is not boxing. Hopkins also at times, some of you confuse his running with boxing, somtimes Hopkins forgets to punch.
A draw? Are you serious that was wipe out!!! Tarver never even threw anything.
The sad part about this fight is that if Floyd does kill him he wont even get any credit for it. Its almost better if Floyd struggles. Instead of people giving Floyd props for dominating a world class boxer, he will be ripped and say that Spinks is a easy opponent which is a joke.
There is no way in hell that Baldy could even win a single round against Floyd much less a whole fight. For all the credit he got in the win over Zab, it was still a super close fight, Zab dominted him early, & was easily outboxing him when he was focused. Against Gatti Baldy did well but still got hit a ton & when Gatti broke his hand, Baldy struggled to do anything & Gatti actually started to outbox him.
Basically, Baldy will always struggle with a boxer with speed, let alone the best boxer in the world with maybe the most speed
That Sums up everything
You can't hit whats not in front of you ask Corrales. The handspeed won't make a difference since Baldomir's mindset coming into the fight will be he's willing to get hit in order to hit back. But the problem is Floyd's superior footspeed and footwork. Baldomir is going to be chasing a ghost all night. Plus Baldomir isn't known for one punch knockout power. Meaning he's going to have to work PBF down and I don't see that happening. Judah with all his speed couldn't break down Floyd. I don't see how Baldomir can do it.
I totally agree. I don't believe you people actually think that Baldomir can beat PBF it is impossible IMPOSSIBLE!!!!
If Baldomir does beat PBF somebody PLEASE SHOOT ME!!!!!!!!
