you guys gotta be kidding me the way this poll is going.
Really? Firstly, how can some of you say that HBO is racist or whatnot when Floyd mentions race more than all of the HBO staff combined? Floyd is the one who thinks he has a target on his back and always assumes people are attacking him.
If Floyd has a boring fight like he did against Baldomir and Judah, what do you expect? The fans were booing DURING the event! What does that tell you about how entertained the crowd feels? At one point or another everyone (including Larry Merchant) gave Floyd props for his skill and ability. I wouldn't say its biased for him to say that the fight is boring WHEN THE CROWD IS BOOING THE EVENT. That's just stating the obvious.
The fact is you hear HBO criticize many fighters for their performances. Lots of times I'm surprised at how harsh the questions are that they ask the loser in the post fight interview. They seriously rub it in. Watch the Pavlik-Hopkins post fight interview over again. They seriously pour salt in Pavliks wound. They've said Hopkins was boring many many times during his fights too.
