Would you have more respect for pbf if he LOST to mosley in a war?

[JBell11]

I truly believe Mosely would go to "war" with PBF. I also believe that Mosely is a capable boxer that can possibly beat PBF on pure skill. As a boxing Fan I'd like to see the two stylistically match up.

With that being said, I think Floyd would get more respect if he simply faced opposition and caliber that is par to himself. It doesn't have to be a "war" nor does it have to be a "gift" (JMM). To someone elses point, Michael Jordan faced any opposition and performed wonderfully; whether it was the Jazz, Celtics or the Lakers. Michael Jordan faced any and all opposition. My point is Floyd may be great now, just imagine if Floyd faced the Celtics or Lakers...just my two cents...

PBF doesn't have the guts to engage in a brawl with Mosley.

You guys who think people dislike Floyd because he refuses to stand right in front of an opponent and slug it out are missing the point entirely. It's not about slugging it out, it's about winning decisively against the best in your own division. Not beating up on guys who ordinarily are 20 pounds lighter and have a 4 to 6 inch reach disadvantage.

Nobody needs to see Mayweather "slug it out" to change their opinion of him...they just need to see him win decisively over those in his division that he claims to be so much better than. You can't win people over by running for 12 rounds while landing 10 counters per round. If he's as good as he thinks he is, he should be able to stop, or at least badly hurt, these guys. Hell, he couldn't even KO Marquez. WHo the **** wants to watch **** like that? That's why I will never, ever buy a Mayweather PPV.

Me too man this clown is getting downloaded for now on. Unless he fight Mosley of course. I won't pay to watch him use his reflexes and potshot Cotto for 12 rounds. I won't pay to see fighters that don't want to fight.

"WAR"?

Why bleed and cut it you don't have too?

I don't blame Floyd for not wanting to be punch drunk.
I don’t want to see him in there just swinging crazy wild ass punches.
That’s not what I expect from or want to see from Floyd, and so called “boxing fans” shouldn’t either.

Could you imagine someone like MIchael Jordan dumbing down his skill level to make a basketball game closer so people can see a more competitive game?

Or Jerry Rice purposely dropping passes so football fans can see how he struggles under pressure.

Allot of "so-called" boxing fans but really are just "FIGHT FANS" are always trying to force Floyd and other fighters that practice the sweet science to abandon their defense and put there chin in the air for there enjoyment.


FLOYD is boxing at its purist form.
So the excitement you should get is not Wanting Floyd to change his game up...

But wanting to see if anybody will take the risk like Castillo did in order to beat Floyd.....Floyd shouldn’t have to change his style to accommodate FIGHT FANS like SOME OF you.





BOXING FANS love his style just the way it is...
It is the FIGHT fans who have a problem with it

Hey little man "Boxing fans" actually want to see Mayweather vs Mosley. If your a pure boxing fan then who exactly should Floyd fight to get a pure boxing match with? If you don't pick Mosley then your not a pure boxing fan. Who else is going to match Floyd's boxing skills? If he is'nt going to fight Mosley then he should just retire for good because there is nobody else. People watch fights for the outcome. They don't want to watch fights that they already know the outcome of already. Floyd is going to end up with nothing but Fanboys watching him. There is'nt enough of you to support him.

I'm no hater either I'm just tired of wasting my money watching one of the best boxers out there do nothing but shadow box.

with all due respect, i dont think floyd gives a **** if you respect him or not...he's arguably the best p4p boxer of his generation, and he's made hundreds of millions in the sport...

as far as the question, sure, id love to see a war between the two fighters...id also like watching floyd BOX against mosley, because he's brilliant at it...

if you dont respect the guy, dont watch him...i dont know what else to tell you...just stop whining about it to people who do enjoy watching him...you guys are like internet versions of carl froch...

[baracuda]

yes i would....
