Fighters stealing Mayweather's Style?

[jack_the_rippuh]

why not copy a new fighter,


anyways Mayweather didnt invent it, he didnt perfect it, it was being used by old school fighters way before Floyd and you know why, because if you knew how to use the shoulder roll, it worked, if it didnt work fighters like Mayweather wouldnt be using it or any other fighter

It just looks bad. If you take some things from that fighter it's okay, but if you try to study that fighter just so you can fight like them while they're still and active fighter, that looks bad. It's as if you can't find a way to do good in matches for yourself so you try to use what the next man uses....it especially sucks if you do a bad job at at.

IWATCH!
Get it through your thick neanderthal skull already..
The Whitaker who fought Tito was shot. Past his prime in age/skill and weight.

In a pound for pound matchup both fighters at their best with weight being a non-factor Whitaker would have embarrased Tito.

What you talking about? Just cause he can move his head doesnt mean he is as skillful as Mayweather...and too bad Trinidad embrased Whitaker when he was pound for pound #1 at 35...excuses suck....pure boxers usually last longer than sluggers ...

I was trying to sound sarcastic towards the other poster when i asked Why not copy another fighter,


i know all you say its true, people make you out as unoriginal if you copy, fact is though, Mayweather did not invent the shoulder roll so nobody is copying Floyd

Do you actually believe that a Tito in his prime would've beaten Whitaker in his prime??? The Whitaker that Tito beat was a coked up Whitaker. Didn't a bum like Carlos Bojorquez beat Whitaker after Tito by TKO. Tito beat Whitaker by a UD. Then is Carlos Bojorquez a better boxer then Tito. Guys like Bitchnard & Winky out boxed Tito. Whitaker before the drug problem was a much better boxer then Bitchkins & Winky. Tito was never a great boxer, he was more of a slugger.

Two weights up, where gaining weight means something unlike the lower weights where fighters move around weights freely withno side affects, a prime Whitaker got all he could handle from DLH...and Trinidad just finished him off two years or something after that...33 is how old Trinidad is (lost to Winky), and Chavez was 33 when he got KTFO by DLH...and many fighters lost after Trinidad...

You might be the only person on this board that believes that a prime Tito would've beaten a prime Whitaker. Tito never had a drug problem like Whitaker did. Tito has never been a great boxer, he's always been a slugger. If you are proud of that win, then you should call Carlos Bojorquez a better boxer then Tito. Carlos Bojorquez actually won by TKO against the coked up Whitaker, Tito won by a UD against the coked up Whitaker.

Yes, but Trinidad retired, he said "I quit fighting for ever", than when he lost again, the next day or whatever he said "I quit boxing forever"...and whocares, people on this board dont know crap, look at how grossly overrated Rocky/Ouma/Johnson was, and Chavez too...

Rocky Marciano is underrated. The guy was undefeated when he retired. 49 wins 43 by KO is pretty impressive. Lennox Lewis is overrated & yes I agree Chavez is overrated. Didn't Tito beat Ricardo Mayorga after his retirement. Wasn't Tito the big talk before he lost every round to Mr. Boring Winky. People actually was saying that Tito will beat Bitchnard in the rematch. I don't ever see a prime Whitaker losing to Tito. It will be an easy fight for Whitaker. I think you have Sanchez losing by KO in you sig, that's funny. I think you should change it Sanchez by KO.
