**** floyd,what does he think he is..he fights every two years ..pacquiao was the busy one.he kept us entertained while floyd was away..he comes back cashes in 30 million dollaz then thinks about retirement again..common man wtf..i defended the guy for his boxing skills but fu** him now..all he cares about is safety and money..whats up with supporting the fans for once floyd?

Yep, good post. Floyd's fans are pathologically... illogical!

[Tweezy316]

thats the point ..he fights **** all and does **** all for the sport and u still in love with him.he comes fights then retires..yes its good for him..but what about the fans???

If you don't like Floyd if your not happy with him. Then why are you wasting all your time talking about him? or wanting to see him fight? I mean come on I'm sure you can find something else better to do than sit here and talk bout a guy you don't like? Yeah I'd like to see floyd fight more I think he's a genius in the ring and I don't think there's been a boxer like him before. It would be pure hatred to think Floyd don't have what it takes to beat all those greats leonard, duran, robinson, hearns. Floyd has got it man. And sadly noone will appreciate what they are witnessing until he's gone. But me I appreciate his brilliance in the ring. and i'm mature enough to know he just promotes the fight good so all the trash talk doesn't bother me. And the real floyd comes out after the fight when he gives his opponent nothing but respect. But of course if you hate him you don't wanna believe that's the real floyd. You wanna believe the real floyd is the guy on 24/7. Just pure hatred. Some of you guys need a hug.

boxing fans are getting hustled...I bit my tongue long enough!!!...NOW I dont give a ****!!!....Arum took a major lost when Pavlik got schooled by B.Hop....Kelly's stock dropped BIG TIME!!!....Margarito was the dude huh?.....breaking Staples records huh?....he got his ass whooped that same night and his stocked dropped even more that Pavlik's because not only did he get his head handed to him...he got caught trying to cheat!!...NOW...what other fighter could Arum lean on for some $$$$$?.....keep the lil' dude away from certain fighters and keep the top rank money in the house!!!....if the lil' dude gets beat up by a non-top rank fighter.....who's left?....Arum is a hustler!!....can't knock it but its bad business IMO.

I don't agree with a lot of the stuff you say but this is probably the best post I have ever seen on this site!

I wonder how long it will be before Floyd Jr. blows all his money again and is forced to fight? Also, when that time comes (when a guy buys $7 million worth the bling, he cannot control his cash), who will he fight? Pacquiao has already hinted at retiring soon and I believe when he is done, he won't come back. If Floyd Jr. misses the boat and doesn't fight guys like Paul Williams or Sergio Martinez, it will be a waste for him, since I think he would most likely beat Williams easily (too easy to counter) and Martinez would most likely lose a close decision (probably a very technical boring fight)...

I don't hate no fighter why would i hate floyd or anyone else they never did anything to me..but like i said especially u if u love boxing and u gotta a guy fighting one or two fights then retires again why even bother supporting him again..why is he retiring? He made enough money and now he's gonna have a break..and he's gonna wait till the divisions weakens down...as a fan why should i support a fighter who doesnt support his fans?? I rather watch a dude with less skills and more losses fight because he does it for the sport and the fans,but u can support whoever the f u want i don't care..im just speaking about myself i aint wasting my time with someone who fights for himself and ****s on his fans.

[Tweezy316]

floys is do great why even bother about a blood test..u got a little dude with no skills according to floyd why not fight him with a 2 weeks cut off date?

don't change the subject. You said pac agreed to the test that floyd demanded. Floyd demanded no cutoffs just like with Mosley. So you said if Pac agreed to the test then floyd has no reason to not fight except for Pac didn't agree to the test since you couldn't back it up with a link and just replied with a different argument.

ok but how is that different from pacquiao? yeah pacquiao hasn't retired BUT you said floyd wants to retire and wait till the division weaks down. But Pacquiao consistently fights the weakest in the division or makes them fight at catchweights so really that's no different. I say for May and Pac a lot of wasted talent. We've seen Floyd fight every type of boxer and beat them handedly. But what about Pac? I wanna see him fight another counter puncher with good defense that actually moves. I wanna see Pac test his skills before I give him respect. Well I'll give all fighters respect because what they do is not easy. I just wanna see Pac fight someone who just doesn't stand there or comes forward for an easy KO.

the thing is when hatton fought pac hatton lost before he got into the ring..and to be honest i think hatton would have better chances against pac if he stayed with his old trainer billy graham...someone like hatton is the last person who should ve switched his style.

now talking about cotto..should we really discredit pac for winning the fight..cotto is a good fighter man..and for clottey ..we have to blame him that **** should of thrown more punches...but it is what it is.

[FightTalent]

Funny how the whole negotiation was suppose to be discrete and Arum and crew have yapped their traps all along. Now Arum will use the plan B scare tactic to get the fans up in arms as Floyd continues to say **** you Bob - and I dont blame Floyd -Arum you DONT dictate to Floyd and I think you just learned it and its burns your ass up lol Floyd will intentionally wait another month or so before he says anything......simply showing Pac and Arum that they dont call the shots. Like it or not, it is what it is. I still think the fight will happen, just not confirmed or announced when BOB wants it be lol

[HandSpeed303]

How does Pacquiao make the best fights possible? cotto and margarito are not the best fights possible. and why is pacquiao going against the commission who said no to margarito? the best fights possible for pacquiao would be mayweather, bradley, alexander, berto, williams. But he don't want none of those guys. And they all happen to be black. Hey i'm just saying. Manny has built his career off hispanic fighters (mostly mexican) some things just never change.

Floyd won't, or till this point showed any interest in fighting those fighters either...

So be easy with the bashing of Manny on that note. Don't be so one sided...
