I'm talking about the random Olympic Style drug testing he has to take in order to fight Mayweather.
What the hell are you talking about.
Those tests, as far as i know, don't prove jack squat.
If he's scared to take RANDOM tests then that's very fishy, You better think again about huggin the nuts of your juiced up Filipino idol. Wake up and smell the coffee
WOW another thread where PACTARDS PACQUIAO NUTHUGGERS, who don't even follow boxing can come and flame and troll
man you Pacquiao fans stop huggin those little steroid shrunken nuts of his and WAKE UP
I doubt it would happen, i'd like to see JMM retire.
And plus Amir Khan may be younger and stronger and whatever but JMM is a smarter fighter, knows how to adjust and is good with both hands.
It's about the smarter man not the bigger man
the best active ones i can think of right now in particular order:
Floyd Mayweather
Andre Ward
Nonito Donaire
Bernard Hopkins
Andre Dirrell <---------this guy is like blacklisted now! haha but he is very good
Floyd's defense has only gotten better with age, literally when he was younger he was a lot more offensive minded and now his counter punching and shoulder rolling is sharper than his combo punching.
even though when he fought Victor Ortiz, that young Mayweather was back in the ring
Ward beats him with relative ease IMO.
any person who knows anything about boxing knows this is true.
Dirrell boxed Froch. Froch got frustrated. Andre Ward boxes, fights in a phone booth, fights backwards forwards you name it, he does it.
Ward is the future of boxing and i don't see this fight going the distance.
There's going to be chaos in Froch's corner, and Ward's boxing IQ and his ability to adjust is going to be too much.
both of pacs ko losses, he looked like he could have carried on but quit ala Judah.
i think his heart is questionable too, he's used to fighting old, dead legs fighters, so what happens if he fights a strong competitor
Just tell your boy to get in the ring already.. Awww you seem butt hurt again lol.. As you said his just a midget easy paycheck right there for Floyd? What are you waiting for.. Biggest paycheck easy fight? Doesn't make sense right even for a flomo would half a brain won't get it? It's fuvced up? Easy fight but why the hold up?? Geez flomos make up your mind...
I don't think you want Pacquiao in the ring with Floyd because Floyd would pull another Hatton City on Pacquiao.
You seem like you making excuses for Floyd. Bro, your boy got taxed so bad he wont fight PAC because of it. Your boy is hitting air and leather the whole 4
Th round. Sad to see Floyd get hurt that bad lol. Damn teach Floyd new tricks he is losing it bro.
....Making excuses for Floyd? He doesn't need to. Who won the fight? Oh yeah..... 42-0 won the fight.
And as for Floyd getting hurt and Floyd missing and hitting air. Look at the final punch stats. And the only thing that hurt Floyd was the headbutt.
lol, you're such a butthurt pactard.
i've already posted IN-DEPTH why Floyd beats Pacquiao, and it's because Floyd is a better BOXER than Pacquiao and he's BIGGER than Pacquiao
those two reasons are why Floyd wins this fight
the politics between Floyd and Top Rank on why the fight hasn't happened yet, let's be real guys, I know that's asking a lot on this site because of all the fanboys with agendas
at least I'm not a ****ing pactard or flomo blaming ONLY pacquiao or ONLY floyd for this fight not happening, blame goes all around, period
Pacquiao isn't afraid of Floyd because he's too stupid to realize the disadvantage he's at, he's probably convinced all these flat-footed, previously beaten badly fighters he's been fed by his promotion company were legit threats to him at the weights HE chose to fight them at
Floyd isn't afraid to fight Manny, he would have to be brainwashed to think that way, he knows he's bigger, smarter, and more talented than Manny, he doesn't ask his opponents to make specific weights to fight him (lol, Ortiz was a legit Middleweight, not a LMW, a ****ing MW)
be REAL for the love of all things, is that too much to ask?
I've yet to see ONE pacquiao fan (hell, anybody period) break down how manny beats floyd without ignoring the size disadvantage and the fact that Pacquiao has no answers for getting in close without Floyd tagging him to death
****ing fanboys with their agendas, where are the real boxing fans at
Boxing fan right here. I'm in love with the sport, not with the fighters yo.
:boxing:
Same. We got fighters running circles for 12 rounds, cherry picking, sucker punching, fabricated undefeated records, avoiding the best competition, paying models to act as their fiance etc. It's messed up. We only have a few warriors left like Wolak, Marquez, Cotto etc. And old school fighter in every sense: Manny who doesn't only fights the best he fights bigger fighters than him and goes to war everytime and fights everyone. I wish everyone was like Manny.
................................................................
Joshua Clottey... Miguel Cotto after he got smashed up... Mosley after he got shut out my Mayweather. Margarito who got destroyed by Mosley.... a washed up Marquez...
hmmmmm... I guess Pacquiao really does fight the best of the best
Roach is an idiot.
Donaire has good timing and is a master at counterpunching. He'd catch Yuri coming in and spark him out. Donaire has insane power and with Yuri's fragile chin he would take him out.
Yeah totally true. Roach values speed and power too much.
Any casual boxing fan would overlook the style of Donaire. Donaire is soooo underrated. Okay Gamboa would come out swinging, so what. Donaire has great technique, an incredible boxing IQ, and awesome counter-punching ability
Speed and Power is not everything, boxing is a sweet science
HBO and Showtime created the 'new school'
People want to see fighters bang. No one is down to see the sweet science.
It's not smart to go out swinging and get your brain smashed around just to get paid... The number one rule in boxing, protect yourself at all times. Old school boxers understood that rule better than anyone.
So in the new school you see bangers like Ortiz, Berto, Maidana, Pacquiao, on and on and on. More and more sluggers each day.
But pure classic boxers are getting more rare.
So i really thing the 'old school' is a style of fighting rather than ducking and dodging.
ALTHOUGH i do agree that back then fighters fought everyone, and there is more dodging today (it's probably because of money)
yea actually at times Cotto looked great against Clottey. He was working the jab and throwing combos. But he was trigger shy
in the fight against pacquiao Cotto had stuck to his gameplan in round 1, he worked the jab and he was going forward. But Pacman was just testing his power. Then Pacman laid it on. Cotto never adjusted to Pacman's frontal attack. Again, he could have adjusted with the right kind of advice.
cotto looked great, he looked strong and he looked solid in rounds 1-4. Pacman just rattled his cage, and Cotto could not adjust
to me Cotto seemed in top physical shape
i'm not a Margarito fan, actually far from it. But marg beat up cotto way more than Pacquiao did.
Sad thing is i don't think Cotto is the same guy since he was since the Marg fight. He just doesn't have the same confidence in himself. And he needs the confidence!!
After 2 losses Miguel Cotto SHOULD NOT retire... Gtfo with these pointless threads
i totally agree with you man. But Cotto needs to recollect himself. He's definitely not at the point where he should retire. He's at the point where he needs a rebirth
cotto was in great condition, he was moving 'til late. he just didn't know how to move, or be agressive in an efficient way. He didn't have the right advice not to mention the right trainer
i was surprised too, Cotto did NOT look like Cotto..But pacquiao was great, i was sad for cotto because i like both fighters so much
I'm torn
I'm a huge pacquiao/cotto fan also
If Cotto had the right advice, and he had an experienced, well educated trainer in his corner that tells Cotto what to do, then the fight would have been a war instead of a turkey shoot
It is clear that Joe Santiago is not experienced, didn't you guys see Joe putting on Cotto's mouthpiece and then give him water?! wtf is that?!
i said that in my thread that he needed evangalista :D
i'm not saying that getting Evangalista back will eliminate Cotto's bad habits, but with the right studying and teachings, he can become better
seriously, he should really consider firing Joe
Getting freddy as a trainer is an interesting idea, but i think it's kind of a stretch, but by all means a good idea
