    The thing you're not seeing is that these guys train to be able to beat another guy in a ring with rules with just your fists. It is NOT a street fight. Thats what so many of you people that love seeing some guys winging at each other with no skill seem to miss.

    If you train to fight in a boxing ring, you train to be able to hit the other guy with cleaner, harder more effective punches. You also train to make the other guy not be able to hit you with those punches. The scoring in boxing awards someone that can hit the other guy more while he himself does not get hit. If you are happy to get hit by punches, you're ******. It doesn't gain you anything...ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. All you get is less points, less probability of scoring yourself, more fatigue and more problems later in life.

    I don't see how you can enjoy watching two guys hit each other at will. With neither of them trying to defend and block and use strategy to get the upperhand. Watch last years fight of the year. Do you enjoy that more than say...Duran/Leonard 1? Have you even seen that fight? I can't stand to watch two guys that obviously have never trained to be able to make the other guy miss. It shows a lack of good proper training from a good trainer. It shows a lack of understanding the fight game and is plain ******.

    Contrary to popular belief a fighter that gets hit constantly but doesn't go down doesn't mean that fighter has a real mans warrior spirit mentality and is courageous beyond our imagining. Every fighter that has the courage to step in the ring has courage and a warriors heart. Gatti doesn't have more courage than every other fighter. He just gets hit more than every other fighter when he doesn't need to. It has ruined his career and will probably ruin the rest of his, most likely, mentally damaged life.

    You need to watch more fighters than just Pacquiao. In Pacs case, he would be twice the fighter he is if he could make his opponents miss him more. If he had more boxing skills. You need to watch Duran/Leonard. It is the ultimate example of two fighters going at each other but with real skill. The best example of offensive and DEFENSIVE mastery I've seen. They both make each other miss and then pay for missing. Thats the point of the game. I don't really care for Mayweather but he is better at doing just that than everyone he faces. That is why he is a better fighter.

    Before you rant on about Mayweather being a girl, how many of his fights have you seen? If you had actually seen a lot of them you would know he doesn't run like you think. He has the skill to stand right in front of his opponent and make them miss every shot. You seem to think this makes him a *****? How? It takes more guts to do that than come in swinging wildly. You actually seem to be angry at him because he can do this. Why? Is it because Pacquiao can't? In some of his recent fights against much bigger opposition he used the ring more but thats only been two opponents. Two out of forty. Just because he doesn't get hit doesn't mean he runs because like it or not, he doesn't run. He stands right in front a lot of the time. Check out James Toney. He is the best example of a guy who stands right in front of his opponent and makes them miss everything. Do you think he is a ***** too?
    Simple common sense.

    True skill is not about running from a shot gassed-out DLH.

    You made a lot of sentences which amounted to BULL****.

      That's what you think.

      You're a liar so you'll even go so far as LIE TO YOURSELF.

      And let's be frank.

      I know a lot more than you ever will noob.

      The fact that you lack common sense and even go so low as lack the dignity to be honest proves your pathetic state.

      You just got owned by your own ******ity.

        Pac sucks, Pac is ducking all the young fighters like Guzman, Soto, Valero etc... He made a career fighting the same washed up Mexicans. Is this the truth or I'm such a big liar.

        Someone with common sense will not call Mayweather Fake Floyd and will appreciate boxing skills..

        Someone with a little knowledge of boxing will not call Pac the greatest of all time.

        I can't never get owned mother fanker, it's you who always gets owned without anyones help.

            people only like feather fisted fighters if they are high on the p4p. where are the cory spinks fans??? why is calderon not the most beloved fighter in puerto rico when he is the most successful fighter from there??? they would rather watch cotto and trinidad because they are true warriors with power who are giving the fans a knockout.

                    just want to say one thing.

                    going for the ko is just a part of boxing, cos not every fighter is capable of doing it. some fighters have the power to do it, others dont. if you know that your opponent has much more power than you then why the hell would you risk that much trying to knock him if you know that outboxing him you have much more chances on winning. the fighters have to be smart on the ring cos its their asses what are in stake, not the people watching asses. you have to use your best weapons on the ring, and if that is hit and dont get hit its totally valid.
                    also boxing is a sport, thats why i love it. if it was just about brutality and violence i wouldnt like it at all.
