Cintron: "Mayweather won't Take The Risk

[wmute]

Regardless Clottey whipped on him and all of a sudden became sadistic and started throwing a barriage of cheap shots.

If you can point to that being frustration on Clottey's part fine, but he was clearly ahead big time and I had him winning virtually every round against Baldomir. He was just totally outclassing him, bad.

as opposed to Tony who did great with Clottey, right?

[wmute]

You know as well as I do that the only fighter worth a damn in that stretch got shafted with a dubious DQ loss in a fight he was winning fairly comfortably.

and you also know that the exact same fighter would have beaten margarito if he had both hands functional for the whole fight

Probably, although Marg comes on strong in the 2nd half anyway so it wouldn't be near as one-sided as the Baldomir fight.

ok... my point is (give or take a couple of rounds) it's not like Margarito is Carmen Basilio and Baldomir is a punching bag...

True, but I think Marg is clearly the lesser of 2 evils.

Margarito's slow ass couldn't find Mayweather on a map or a navigation system.

I can live with you keeping that opinion.

To me,

they both got lucky with Clottey,

Baldomir might have been able to keep the wbo belt if he had to face toney's opponents.

Margarito might have scared Judah to get his belt.

so i cant really pick. Margarito looks more impressive with his power, but Baldomir got his job(s) done too.

[Cletus Funk]

Can't really argue with that.

They're both pretty everage, TBH.

He barely threw punches cuz he didn't need to. When Oscar came in he blocked the majority of them and Oscar was not always landing effectively with those flurries. Oscar did well early but whenever they were in the middle of the ring Floyd dominated him. Oscar never hurt Floyd in the fight. Floyd was smiling when he threw those bull**** flurries.

oh yea what the hell was i thinking? i thought boxers were supposed to throw punches. (that was sarcasm) at least you see why mayweather is boring, but for some reason you are excited by his lack of punches. at least a cintron fight would have one person with a killer instinct

[-EX-]

I don't get excited. I appreciate technical skill. I'll easily watch a Winky Wright, Hopkins, Floyd, or Pernell fight. I don't need knockouts or Gatti type action.

Look at what brawls got Arturo Gatti. Mayweather had exciting fights early on in his career. Why don't you watch those.
