52, if we were to believe you, we would be just as gullible as the humans who believed Raymond Burr when he said Godzilla is real. You can't shadow box in front of a mirror, be a chump all of your life, and then take up boxing or MMA. God gets even with liars lol.Last edited by Boofdatruth; 08-30-2008, 02:35 PM.Comment

Yeah but Garcia was 19 or 20. I know he wasn't mentally there, that was painfully obvious.You are talking about the fight against Babyface Garcia on ESPN. Garcia pretty much threw that fight, he just sat there and let Browing hit him with weakass punches. If i had to pick one fight were I ever saw someone lose on purpose, it would be that fight. There is not even a close second.
Wonder what became of him. A lot of guys lose young cuz their mind is not right.
I remember the guy being pretty talented and good skills and I remember him bagging it in that fight, but he was really young even though he had 40 plus fights.
Maybe just a youthful headcase who needed to get his **** together.
If you are going to throw a fight though, why the hell have it go the distance.
Personally, I think you can sell being hurt by a
glancing body shot better than anything else because people never seem to see those too well ( and some judges I might add).
If there was money on it, I can't imagine that there was.
What would be the purpose....Last edited by Guest; 08-30-2008, 02:38 PM.Comment

If Floyd is overrated then Cotto and Tony barely even exist..lolHe was overrated, not grossly but he was. He is no doubt a very good fighter but didn't truely challenge himself enough.....He's the one who has to live with knowing he didn't beat the top WW in the world when he was in his prime, not me.....I know what it makes me think of him but does he know how it might affect him mentally down the road....going to bed knowing you had a very good career but at nobodies fault but your own cut it short of being a GREAT career or at least trying to make it one....I think Margy, Cotto or Williams would all be serious threats to Floyd and I think Floyd knows it too.That being said I'd bet the house he fights again next year.
He did better than beating the top in the WW division...HE BEAT THE TOP IN THE SUPERWELTERWEIGHT division.
Tony could NOT beat the Oscar that Floyd fought at 154
Same for Cotto.
Marge couldn't even beat Santos at 154.
Blame Arum for the Cotto and Margarito fights not happening.
Arum is the one that offered Floyd an $8 million three-fight deal at the time he was buyng-out his contract with top Rank.
WHY DIDN'T ARUM OFFER FLOYD A ONE FIGHT DEAL?
Bob is the one that claimed he couldn't cancel the Manuel Gomez stinker and fight Floyd instead..
That's Arum's fault.
Anybody that believes Arum could not back out of a fight with the unranked ghost of Manuel Gomez is a fool.Comment

Why on earth do people think Santos sucks and the Margarito fight wasn't close?If Floyd is overrated then Cotto and Tony barely even exist..lol

Santos is a freaking champion, a couple of times over.
Have you ever seen him fight for crying out loud?Comment

Santos is not on Oscar's level.
He was cold-****ed by Kofi Jantuah..
Tony could not beat the Oscar that Floyd fought.Comment

Last time i saw him he knocked out this dude in 13 seconds with 1 punch on ESPN (was some scrub but it was beutiful). I believe he is fighting Yory Boy Campas on the JMM-Casamayor undercard.Comment

So if someone beat Drake Thadzi in the pros, does that mean they are better than James Toney?
Anyone can get knocked out, any one.
Santos is a champ, end of story.
Tony gave DLH complete hell in sparring back in the day, and would give him complete hell today. Believe that.Comment

You could make that claim, but would you say that to James Toney's face. If your affraid of saying that directly to James Toney, I can't really say your better.Comment
