To be a fan of Floyds you have to think different.

why did people start to leave in the middle of his fight?.........was it of excitement?......lol

probably because their homeboy JMM got schooled. I dont know?

[M.I Truth ?]

lol....oh yeah......i love boxing and hate running in boxing...and thats what floyd does.......run and potshot then run some more.......

I love boxing too. All aspects. Guys with Defense, agressive guys, highlight ko guys, body punchers. If you truley have seen many Floyd fights and like boxing Im not sure how you can call him boring. Thats just me.

Why do people pay to see him fight?

Why do Millions watch him on PPV?

If that's the case then the star power of his opponent shouldn't matter. According to you, he fills his own pockets. Good job flip flopping on your own argument.

It's just odd to like a guy who isn't scared of **** and is fearless in and out of the ring (afterall that is why people like him) and then be a fan of the opposite. I like watching Floyd fight but I also can't defend the **** he does...

Who is Floyd afriad of? And why would he be scared inside in the ring? Please explain.

"**** he does" What did he do?

[M.I Truth ?]

bad time?

margarito , cotto , clottey , williams were all already top 5-10 fighters by the time he went to 147.

mosley would come back to 147 the following year.

Who were the known champs? Cotto was on his way up to 140.

This post makes no sense. Floyd is the biggest star in boxing bar none. He draws the most and people talk about him the most. That can't be argued. Men lie, women lie, numbers don't.

He chases BIG MONEY FIGHTS.

What dont you understand about that?

If he's the star you claim then he doesn't need to chase big money fights b/c he's the one drawing. Your opponent doesn't matter if you're the draw. You can't have it both ways. You keep changing your argument.

Who did you want him to fight after having a 21 Month lay off from boxing? And it has to be somone who was avilible for July 19th...which was the ORIGINAL date. And it has to be somone HBO would throw on PPV.

Keep in mind HBO turned down Clottey vs. Williams.

i don't know man, i was just expecting him to pick a real welter even if he has to push for a diff date, a more credible match maybe?

don't give me that 21 month lay off crap, no one forced him to retire, you talk as if the guy had a life-threatening sickness/injury that prevented him from boxing that long. it's kinda like that fckin co-worker who goes MIA for a few weeks to get wasted and when he comes back with a hangover expects everyone to give him lighter load than usual.

suitable to cotto because cotto wanted the payday.

Like 144 was suitable to JMM. Because he needed a payday.

When it comes to Floyds demands. His stance on USADA drug testing was clear even before negotiation started. And Roach himself said he only needed 5 days.

Pacquiao got his prefered Glove size and weight limit. AND his outrageous 10 million dollar per pound over the limit.
All he had to do was accept a 14-day cutoff, which 90% of boxingscene.com thought was fair.

He didnt.

So seriously. Who avoided to fight whom?

how is that demand outrageous when floyd cheated the weight against marquez?

and how did pac get his demands when all those things you mentioned should have been a given?

why should pac agree to floyds demnds when what he suggested was 10 times tougher than any current regulations.

floyd created a rule out of thin air without evidence. now the fight is dead.
