    The definition of boxing

    box·ing (bŏk'sĭng) Pronunciation Key
    n. The act, activity, or sport of fighting with the fists, especially according to rules requiring the use of boxing gloves and limiting legal blows to those striking above the waist and on the front or sides of the opponent.


    So why do alot of people here keep saying that Floyd Mayweather is a great BOXER, hes not, hes a good runner, and he knows how NOT to take an ass whooping, but hes by far not a great BOXER

    Tell me, is it Floyd you hate? Or the fans?
    Or do you just love to have this exact same discussion over and over?

      I thought the art of boxing was to hit and not get hit? Isn't that why they call it the sweet science? Maybe I'm wrong...

        I dont love to have the exact same discussion, people on here love to have it, and I love to try and prove them wrong. I HATE Mayweather because he runs his mouth and frankly, hes not that good, I dislike alot of his fans cause they run the same bull mayweather does and they are almost all the same. Lets hoist mayweather up to invincible status while being ignorant and rude at anyone else who isnt a mayweather mark

          Mayweather sure doesn't fight.

          Exactly. A lot of people here have poor debating skills. That's why they duck alot of our points with pure hate like $in.

            If you don't think he's that good, then what would it take to prove you wrong? You want him to stand still and throw bombs like Gatti?
            Who would you like him to fight? Klitschko?
            I'm just wondering, cause I've not seen anyone with such relentless anti-Floyd posting as you...

              I know, thats why I don't understand why so many boxing fans hate him. I thought the true art of boxing is to do what Mayweather does. Thats boxing, right?

                What I want floyd to do is to fight the big names before he retires, hes calls himself the greatest ever and hes only fought 5 or 6 big name fighters, everyone he doesnt want to fight he says they arent in his money league and wont fight them. Hes ducked everyone hes afraid of except the Judah fight. All the big names he has faced have all been won by decision, except an old ass gatti. He runs his mouth like he clearly without a doubt won the DLH fight, when me and alot of others even some mayweather fans claimed OScar won or it was a draw. He jus talks a whole lot of bull and he doesnt back it up, he hand picks alot of his oppoenents. What I want to see Mayweather do is a little bit of boxing, boxing of course it the art of hit and not get hit, not run away and barely hit. He has the defense part done, now lets work on the offense, great boxers have both. I am probably one of the only people that hate mayweather that thinks if he would work on his offense and not run so much he could be a good fighter, not one of the best, but definately good

                  LOL. The dude said the sweet science is a hit and don't get hit sport and since Mayweather doesn't get hit and hits then he ain't sweet. He scurred yo!
