It was 8mil for Marg... Floyd asked for a gurantee 10mil for Cotto and wanted the Oscar fight... Arum couldn't guarantee the 10 he could only guarantee 7mil for Cotto. Floyd also wanted the Oscar and wanted some big number guarantee. Arum that Floyd could get that money with Oscar... Pretty much Arum didn't think Floyd-Oscar was going to do huge numbers. He was wrong cuz it did. So Arum wouldn't promise him. Floyd then boughtout his contract 750k and fougth Baldomir for 10mil... From all accounts that fight did not have any upside... But, the upside really came with the Oscar fight which millions upon millions. And, business wise it was a smart move Floyd got more money in the long run...Comment

And, I agree 100% is down to opinion. And, I never said his opinion was wrong. But, he made that statement. And, I ask ok explain how? Then he tried to be a smart ass and use some "******* logic" and never really explained why he felt Floyd had more ring generalship than Whitaker. As of right now he hasn't explained it...
But, yet I am the one who has been exposed right PB? I honestly don't care if you think I am ******* or not, you don't think I am a good poster. That is your opinion... I won't lose sleep over it... You have a goodnight bro...Comment

My problem with "running" is that these fighters usually don't initiate the action. As a result, "being first" is greatly discouraged because the fighter moving away has a much greater advantage. In my opinion, counterpunching and slipping punches is easy.. Maybe that's because that's my fighting style?
If you're landing clean, effective blows you shouldn't need to move away TOO MUCH, unless a fighter is backing YOU up through non-punching avenues.Comment

Running or using or trying to get away excessively is good in a street fight when you trying to avoid being hurt by your opponent.
But when a crowd is watching you have a duty to show courage, and not be so concerned about not getting hit by running. Because if the guy dont chase you, you would would look real silly. YOu can avoid being hit by slipping, and ducking, while punching.Comment

Have you even read some of the example posted to this point? What Dirrell did in that fight was garbage.
What Floyd does is not running. Many get it confused cause he does start off on his back foot alot, a creates space for counters.
What Cotto did against Manny, that was running. Running for his life so he didn't get KO'ed, still happened...
You have to learn how to filter out the haters, and realize not everyone is hating of Floyd, or is a Pac stan.
The key word is boxing. Hit and not be hit. The example of Dirrell, was not to be hit, with nothing in return as far as offense...That was running, and I like Dirrell.
Floyd has never done that. He makes you pay (when you miss). That is boxing.
Also, Manny is no longer considered a brawler...Comment

This dude is a *****. Guys like this don't like boxing they like fighting and don't see the art or science involoved.
Warning this site is nothing but a Floyd hate forum,a lot of long time members were banned and never came back.
P.S don't defend Floyd too much or say anything negative about Pac or you'll be red I'd to death or banned.
