As a hardcore boxing fan, don't you kind of want Mayweather to beat Pacquiao?

[jrosales13]

Floyd hasn't liked Larry since the Manfredy fight when Floyd stuttered a bit and Larry cut the interview short and said 'you're only quick in the ring'. What a harsh thing to say to a kid just coming off his first title defense against a supposedly very dangerous guy.

How can anybody not like Larry? He is the man, it will be the sad when he leaves HBO...

HBO will not be the same without him. It will go downhill...

Fucking Larry

Larry wanted him to move up to 135 at that time

Jesus Christ man. Barry Bonds also never had a positive drug test (at least not until the Mitchell Report became public) so are we to assume he was innocent the whole time as well? Quit being so gullible. Stricter testings for not only Pacquiao, BUT EVERYONE. People have died in boxing rings, and when people's lives are on the line, the commission should act accordingly. I dare you refute anything I've just said.

I like how you switched from Pacquiao is on something to trying to be the saint of the sport, pulled a Mayweather there.

I agree there should be a Strict testing guideline, until then its up to the commision of the states. They get paid for it, unfortunately You and I dont.

Somestates may differ but I think its Urine before and after, I would be happy to see Urine before and blood after.

dont underestimate Larry


Floyd would swing and Larry would shoulder roll then pull counter his ass...then calmly say 'back to you Jim'...with the same smirk he's had all night

lol..*sigh*...

this is all BS

Actually Floyd fans are in love with Floyds boxing skills....the people who are floyd fans have been RJJ fans..Sweat pea fans...Ray Leonard Fans...Ali fans.... basically "FANS OF SKILLED FIGHTERS"..Mayweather fans DONT worship Mayweather for who he is...but as for how he fights, his work ethic, his ring IQ, his dedication. When Mayweather retires we will go to the next SKILLED boxer......all the PAC fans are just PAC FANS...they werent here B4 Pac and they wont be here when hes gone! Pac fans are the unrealistic fans who only see one sife of the picture when it comes to Manny..from cheating on his wife to cheating inside the ring....NONE OF IT EVER HAPPENED according to Pac Tards.

NO Mayweather fans will deny that Mayweather is an idiot outside the ring but who cares about a boxers personal life...we care abotu his skills in the ring.....I dont know many Mayweather fans who are emotionally invested in Mayweather...but a high percentage of Pac fans feel a strong affinity towards the fighter which makes me believe that they are FAR MORE HARDCORE fans and would be far more devastated if pac gets knocked off his high horse....

1 - You are a hypocrite. Naturally you don't care about a boxers personal life when its about Floyd but you mention that Manny cheats on his wife......

2 - You have NO PROOF that Manny is on PEDs but you state it as though it's a fact and that Manny fans are denying it. If you are able to show us proof, great. Until then, you are just listening (a follower) to your hero Floyd.

3 - Manny fans would be disappointed if he lost but they already saw that happening. Floyd fans think it can't happen to someone named Manny. Given the odds would favor Floyd and I have read more Manny fans giving the edge to Floyd than the other way around, it would be more shocking and devastating to a hardcore Floyd fan. Especially if testing was done.

4 - Don't bring up guys like Ali and SRL in the mix. Ali wanted to fight and called out and fought guys like Listen, Frazier, Foreman and even with his problems and age he still went after Holmes. Floyd did bad in this area and that is why we are calling him out. Nothing wrong with his skills but he needs to improve in other areas, as I just stated.

5 - Manny has skills that you don't seem to appreciate or even believe that he has (It must be the PEDs). Same talk is coming from your hero Floyd.


Due to point #5 (and for other reasons), I hope Manny takes the tests and beats Floyd.

I am sure that if Floyd loses his "0", he will make fights happen more easily against the tougher opponents. That should be great news for Floyd fans as well. Right?

[Pocket Dogs!]

To be honest, screw both Floyd and Manny. I used to be a huge fan of both. I want Floyd to fight and Manny to fight the best out there but both just don't want to and that's sad.

What the fuck are you talking about? Floyd in the early part of his career called all the top guys out and no one gave him a chance. No one wanted to fight him. Pacquiao has NEVER called anyone out and he never responded to a challenge. He fights the guys his promoter and his trainer wants him to fight. Stop trying to discredit Floyd.



There's proof for ya. Now that Floyd is the top draw these same guys would love to fight Floyd, yet back then when the rules were reserved, they never gave him a chance.

Also, not only that, he was calling out BIGGER men.



Lol. Even more.

While we at it lets post up the video of Aaron Pryor busting in on SRL Post fight conference, challenging him to a fight...With his whole "What time is it?" "Hawk time"

The question is was Pryor serious in wanting to fight Leonard when he was calling him out through the media?

Think about it...

Now Leonard never really called out Pryor, he never felt the need to...A coward perhaps? What do you think? Did he duck Pryor? Hmmmmm...

Think about it?

The answer is no cuz Leonard offered Pryor a fight, gave him his highest career payday and it was Pryor who turned it down.

Point is, you don't negotiate through the media, yea calling out fighters in camera seems nice and all...But, when was there a fight truly offered? That is what you need to ask yourself.

[| THE KING |]

what kind of question is this? Boxing fans just want to see fighters fight.. and Floyd is M.I.A. PERIOD.. /thread

[-Kev-]

I would love it so much. But unfortunately, with Pacquiao's skills, it doesn't need to take Mayweather to beat him. Any other A class fighter with good youth, handspeed, and an ounce of defense beats Pacquiao. Floyd is an A+++ fighter, Pacquiao is a B+ fighter beating on B and C class fighters.
