Why do people say Mayweather runs??

[eazy_mas]

Because he wont TRADE with anyone..(smart Move I guess) and some people call that a ***** move..

I think he has a weak Chin.. and has learned a way to compensate for his weakness..

It might not be fan pleasing.. but it's effective... You cant Fault someone for using WHAT they have to good effect..

He has good chin because of his training you could tell. yes sometime some shot comes unexpectly that stunts you doens have to be hard

Why do people say Mayweather runs? Maybe because he does? He ran like like **** against De La Hoya, and this after he said he was going to stand and punch it out with Oscar. People wouldn't mind his style so much if he would just back up his mouth with action. Don't talk smack and then punk out on what you've said.

Well if you think running is part of boxing that let his oppenet out smart him and outwork him to get to him?

why never anyone could have caught with him? even guys who are faster than him like Judah.

He was standing toe2toe against DHL couple of time and Oscar couldnt hurt him because Floyd knows his stuff, he burned Oscar out

From what I remember Cotto was hurt bad against Demarcus Chop Chop Corely.

Hey calm down chilllll. I didnt say Hagler duran hatton and cotto are boring to watch. I said I love watching them fight but I much rather see fighters like Leonard Ray Robinson Mayweather Sweet peas. I like seeing defensive/Counter Punchers make top fighter who are brawlers look bad

I am calm, just because I differ from you doesn't mean I'm pissed, LOL. You actually said that if everyone fought like them boxing wouldn't be any fun to watch, can you imagine how fun it would be if everyone fought like PBF? I would probably pick up Fencing myself! And those guys you mentioned have fought their counterpunchers and movers as well, not always does the better technician wins, sometimes you know what's coming but still you can't do **** about it because of it being so much! Picture it like a pitcher who throws a 100+ miles per hour fast ball, you know what's coming but what can you do about it?

Mayweather has mastered the art of Boxing. He is at the next level.
No boxer wins fights running. He would be in the same predicament if he did.
Non Fans just need something to argue. It wouldn't be fair if they didn't have anything to argue about.

He hits hard. He is at complete peace and fully relaxed in the ring. A lot of boxers get that rush in the first few rounds. He doesn't get that.

So many judges cant be wrong. His reflexes have surpassed all others in the sport. And its because he hardly gets hit.

cause in britain moving is a bad thing like during the revolutionary war the ****** british soldiers stood in the middle of a field and fired their guns while the smart americans hid behind stuff and just picked them off. my best analogy ever!

That is a DAMN good analogy.

To answer the threadstarter's question. It's basically cause Floyd promises people that he will go toe to toe and people want to see that. They obviously will get mad when he doesn't.
