Floyded signed the contract..now everyone shut the hell up

[Gonzalez_Boxing]

Props for what?

Hes supposed to be doing it.

He was the last lineal champion.

In boxing, as a champion, you always defend against the best competition.


Its great to see this matchup, but lets not pretend like Floyd went out of his way to make it happen,

hes supposed to be making fights like this.


lol props.


Hey guys, give me props for being a dad to my kids every day. I didn't just shoot the wad and a baby popped out, I actually stay to take care of my responsibilities.

Give me my props dammit!

So you're telling me just because he's supposed to be doing it, he doesn't deserve credit?

In a perfect world the best are supposed to fight the best, but this world we live in is far from perfect, so when the best do fight the best, I think a little credit should be given. If you feel different that's fine by me. I'm not here to change you opinion, just stating mine.

I have kids too. Does anyone have to give me props for taking care of them, no. Doesn't mean I don't appreciate it when someone compliments me on the job I've done raising them. When my kids tell me they love me and I'm the best dad in the world, I don't tell them not to give me any credit, I'm supposed to do this. I thank them and tell them I try my best.

Nothing wrong with saying job well done, even when someone is supposed to be doing their job, right?

If you have kids and take care of them, props to you.

For someone doing what they're supposed to be doing in the first place,

its not high on my list of giving credit for that.

You're supposed to be doing that.


The difference between that and telling someone they're doing a good job is this,

that person could just be doing their job in a regular manner by doing the bare minimum. You save the "good job", for people who go above and beyond what is expected of them.


Floyd is simply doing what he should have been doing in the first place.
Welterweight for 5 years, fighting legit welterweights who pose a threat.

Its not a knock, its just the way his career has panned out.

I'm not going to give props for fighting someone he should be, especially when hes been a part of the welterweight landscape for as long as he has.


I'm glad hes taken this fight. I've never been against, as a matter of fact, I've been clamoring for these types of matchups since hes been in the division.

I save my props for someone like Vanes M. who is rumored to be taking on Carlos Quintana next. That is quite a step up for a kid like him.

Floyd finally fighting Shane isn't enough of a reason to give him extra credit. He should have been making these types of fights a long time ago. He'll get the extra credit when he faces legit threat after legit threat.

[S.G.]

doing what you're supposed to be doing and doing a good job mean the same thing

this chris rock knock-off of an excuse is corny

[Gonzalez_Boxing]

Could have phrased that better,but I am sure you are smart enough to know what I meant!

I'm assuming you meant you're not giving Mayweather credit for finally fighting a top welterweight?

It's been a ****ing long time coming, but now that he's finally choosing to do so, I'll give him credit.

[Rickety Cricket]

Floyd will stop Shane.

[-Reflexes-]

So Marg gets no credit for fighting Cotto?

Leonard gets no credit for fighting Hearns?

WOW.

i dunno bro.. its weird because this is the internet, but u rub me the wrong way..
you, your pic, your opinion, your floyd threads, your voice, your accent.. everything

werent you the one bitching about floyd just a few days ago? i dont visit this site that frequently but i do remember u bitching on one of the radio shows..

[Left Banned Tua]

He couldve waited for the Pac-Clottey winner. He WANTED to fight Shane. So much so that his manager which is also Bertos manager and GBP bouught Berto out so Floyd could step in.

you know who he wanted to fight?

matthew hatton , nate campbell.......

Those were just terrible rumors. And to be fair that list for March 13th was ass.

Im glad he waited.
