    Can People STOP Calling Mayweather a PURE BOXER?

    Some of you people on here are such noobs to boxing. That's the only way to explain this phenomenon.

    Howard Davis Jr., Muhammad Ali, SRR to an extent, Pernell Whitaker, SRL sometimes, and Willie Pep are PURE boxers. Which means they'll dance around their opponent, with the jab popping all night. These fighters are not really reflexive fighters, although sometimes they are off the jab.

    Mayweather is more of a counterpuncher, he's very unorthodox in that he leads with his right hand a lot, leaps in with the left hook, but sometimes he switches his style completely.

    Even Max Kellerman partakes in this ****** phenomenon, grab a boxing book and watch some boxing. Kellerman doesn't know anything about boixng.

    Pacquiao is apparently on steroids because he beat Hatton, Cotto, and Clottey... Pacquiao must be on steroids since if the great Mayweather Jr wouldn't step in the ring against Cotto, only a cheater would step in the ring against Cotto. Thats Mayweather Snr.'s logic.

      Oh okay now some guy on a message board defines what a "pure boxer" is for the rest of the planet and HBO commentators. Thanks!

              IDK, why hasn't this fight happened yet? It's on my mind too much. Because one fighter out of the blue requests OST when he has been in this sport for 15 years and magically requests it knowing that one fighters doesn't like blood taken from him so early to the fight.

                  The TS is a mayweather hater and is racist against Mexicans and their style of fighting even though they've given out so many FOTY..so many great battles and memories....smh....
