    I realize you don't like Mayweather and I'm not his biggest fan either.

    But I think you're being a bit irrational...lol. Because I don't think you're a blind man sitting behind that keyboard and I don't think you're dumb.

    How in the hell did you score rounds for Oscar in the middle of the fight when he'd charge in and throw some strange body type punches in the clinch that didn't do much if anything but act like a pat on Floyd's side......and when Floyd would let go of the clinch he'd stifle Oscar with a right hand. That might have happened fourty times during the entire fight.

    When Oscar threw the jab.......it landed and Floyd had Zero answers.

    When Floyd threw the jab.......it landed and Oscar had Zero answers.

    The difference was Floyd consistently used it as a weapon and the Four rounds I gave to Oscar came as a result of him stopping Floyd in his tracks with the jab.

      Floyd is entertaining in his own way. If you want to see someone take on a guy who is capable of beating a lot of guys, get outclassed by someone clearly superior, his fights are very enjoyable. If you expect Gatti, and you tune into Mayweather, purposely, you're setting yourself up. He doesn't need to do that. By the way, exciting doesn't always mean that you'll win. Other than fans, you might not win much, actually. Exceptions, I realize (Gatti, Corrales) But each time they met a smart fighter, they got beat. And usually, pretty bad.

        Act like a pat? Floyd's punches sure act like a pat!

        This happened forty times? What fight were you watching man?

            That's not my point. I was just replying to the fan that I was going against consensus when I said Floyd was not exciting. Please dont tell me you got rushes in the Baldomir fight, because if you did, not everyone saw it that way.

              How about you give me a run down of how the fight went.

              Highlight in your best estimation why Oscar won the fight when the harder punches were landed by Floyd. This I must know.

              Oscar landed maybe 3 good, flush punches the entire fight (ones that were capable of getting everyone's attention). 2 of them were jabs and 1 of them was a right hand. Floyd had the showier, harder punches.

                  If you can honestly watch Floyd Mayweather Jr vs Tony Pep and not say wow, this kid is good, then I don't know what to say. Because any way you slice it, once upon a time Floyd was GOOD. Really good.

                    The harder punches were landed by Floyd? Unbelievable.

                    Oscar won the fight. It was close, but he definitely won the fight.

                      I honestly watched Floyd fight Baldomir and said cotdamn, these boxers have no business fighting in the ring!
