    Love is strong word, yes I like PBF-Baldo, PBF-DLH. Didn't really care for Spinks-Taylor and Wright-Hopkins literally put me to sleep.

      A style of not wanting to be there and not trying to win at all.

For example: What Direll did against Stevens. That was disgracefull
        look at it this way some fighter are matardor and some are bulls.

        THe matador doesnt stay toe2toe with a bull or fight him like he is a bull he must wear down the bull and take control of him and then hit him with the deadly spear.

        But sometimes the bull is to stronge and could with stand for long time so at least try to control him.

        I abit sad that some are not blessed with power so they only way of winning is by points.

          Saying that you like PBF-Baldo and PBF-DLH already convinces me that you're just another Floyd NH.

            I guess your right. Good post! That doesnt mean that i have to enjoy it though. It also doesnt mean that im not a "real" boxing fan if i choose not to be a fan of those certain fighters. Like i said earlier "its all a matter of preference"

                So when did your beloved PBF "spear" Baldomir or Dela Hoya? Sounds kinda ghey to me too.

                  In all honesty, i have PBF-Baldo and Wright-BHop equal on the snooze-meter. Both were pretty painfull to watch.

                    Hey man no need for insults. Besides, MAJORITY hated the FMJ-Baldo and FMJ-DLH fights, you are in the minority.

                      LOL. Yeah i gotta agree with you there too. There was no point in either fight were Floyd went in for the kill. Even when he had the opportunity to do so he didnt.
