"There is nothing cool about taking punishment"

[Dynamite Kid]

It's called boxing. People pay to see a fight. If the boxing world consisted of only Floyd Mayweather, there wouldn't be a boxing world.


People only tolerate Floyd's negative tactics because there are dozens of other boxers putting on great fights. It's the people who take the punishment that allow Floyd a medium to con people out of their money. He promises spectacular victories before every fight, but never delivers. Liars are not cool

Couldn't of said it better myself, great post.

Word i respect what you are saying. But if manny agreed from the beginning his name wouldn't be ruined. He's kind of ruining his own name

If Mayeaweather never pulled it out his ass without a shred of evidence he would not need to disprove anything.

but at the same time if manny has 0 to hide then why not take it...no one ever ever accused manny ramirez and arod of taking roids.but guess what they did.everyone thought canseco was crazy but he was right. Everyone things floyd sr is crazy but what if he is right?

Seeing guys take punishment like 'warriors' obviously looks cool in the ring, but I agree - it's not cool in itself. They're human beings with lives, after all.

team pac wants the blood test right after the fight. is that still a problem?

I like Floyd and think he is an awesome boxer. I just don't like the way the treating Pacquaio and trying to ruin a good mans name.

I'm just mad at the minute. In a few days I will probably be admiring him again, but what he is doing is wrong.

What are you talking about, tell me where you ever heard Floyd accuse Pac of doping? He never put in one bad word about Pacman's success.

The professionals felt something was weird and asked for a drug test. Thats all plain and simple. Now everyone thinks theres something more behind it, so stop blaming Floyd for the whole situation, and ask yourself would you rather have a sport full of legitimate athletes or accused drug users? Let him take the test and show hes legit.

Im assuming you love Manny and regardless of whether he was doping or not you'd still love him the same amount. So just let him show hes clean.

Being a Kats fan your used to it tho, Respect that.

Floyd did say that Manny's success was due to performance enhancers during the RA Rugged Man radio interview.

And he never said one bad word about Pacman's success? C'mon man, he downplayed all of Pac's victories.

I think taking punishment is DAMN COOL!!! So long at you dished it out aswell. no one wants to see a one sided beating but everyone enjoys a good fight. sounds like ***** talk to me.

Excellent post.

I admire PBF but I'm glad he is the only PBF out there.

That said, Andre Dirrell is another guy who is highly unlikely to be in any great fights.

I dunno, it's a fine line. Boxers need to be successful but to be really successful they need to entertain. Floyd can entertain with his pure skill level, but put two Floyd's in that ring and I wouldn't watch that **** if you paid me.
