Dude, from a fighters point of view I don't give a **** what you get out of your HBO subscription. If movies aren't enough you have issues. An intelligent fighter goes in there to hit and not get hit not to show you or anyone else how hard of a shot they can take. That spells a short career.
People talk shizz about Floyd but all you have to do is don't tune in!! Watch something else. Don't pay for the pay per view. It's quite simple. Leave the sweet science of boxing to the true fans who appreciate it. I'm teaching my son how to hit and not be hit. Of course he's gonna get hit sometimes but the object is to limit those times. I like exciting fights also but Floyd is a special dude that epidomizes the sweet science.

First of all watch your mouth tough guy. I don't get HBO for movies, I GET IT FOR THE FIGHTS.

And I don't tune in when your boy Mayweather fights because I think he's boring to watch. And I do tune in to watch Morales vs Maidana because they are fun to watch. Mayweather can probably beat those guys in less than an hour. BUT I DON'T CARE. I want to be entertained and Mayweather doesn't do it for me.

You talk about the sweet science but you probably don't have a clue what the sweet science is. Mayweather is not a defensive genius. You want to great defense? Watch Pernell, Watch Nicolino Loche, Watch Wilfred Benitez. But you probably never heard of these guys because you have no clue what sweet science is. These guys were defensive geniuses because they were fun to watch even when on defense. They didn't use their legs for defense, they used upper body and head movement.

And one last thing, you should find your son a better role model than Mayweather. I am not sure if you heard but he likes to beat women and cheat on his taxes!!!!

man did they try so hard to give Berto this fight!!! CRIMINALS!!!!

So happy for Victor Ortiz and I'm glad he won. Andre Berto plans of easy fights backfired and now he really has to prove his worth because he has no title and has to rebound from the lost. Congratulations to Victor Ortiz.

Pure boxing is just one of many styles in boxing... You hardcore May fans seem to think otherwise. Theres been many great fighters with non pure boxing skills.

My dude, I was at Hagler/Hearns 6 rows from the ring! I am a fan of both fighters but I bet Hearns wishes he would've never played into Haglers game.

Some would like to say Ortiz showed more then was expected of him

I would like to say Berto never had what was expected of him

This picture are the bottom of your post has me laughing quietly with tears in my eyes as not to wake up my kids. HILARIOUS. The look on ZRogers face as he is looking back is PRICELESS

These have been the best two weeks of boxing in a long time. Promoters have it all wrong we don't want built up megafights we want two hungry equally matched guys competing just like any other sport. Big props to Maidana Morales Salado juanma Ortiz Berto and everyone else in these fights. This is what boxing fans want not 39yr old Mosley vs PAC not Floyd fighting a lightweight. Williams Martinez started this trend and I hope people pay attention.

To say Berto was exposed was RIDICULOUS. The ONLY think Ortiz showed me tonight is he wanted it more than Berto did. I don't think Berto went in with the wrong game plan. I think he disrespected Ortiz by not taking him serious. Berto could have and should have finished the fight in the 6th round. He once again disrespected Ortiz and got caught. I think a rematch is definately due cause now he has to go back, watch the tape, see that Ortiz didn't do anything special strategically. He just wanted it more than Berto did. Ortiz aint getting nowhere near Manny being with Golden Boy. And if Golden Boy is smart, they make him the new cash cow and dont let him go near Floyd. HBO will pay big dollars for that rematch. And WHEREVER it is, I plan on being there. Congradulations to Ortiz and I thank them BOTH for that fight.

a rematch you have to be kidding

who in the world wants to watch berto hold another man all night long???

seriously, how can anyone be a fan of a fighter who does the opposite of

fight?


thank GOD, and i honestly said a prayer for Ortiz tonight and for the boxing

world that God be just and fair so that we true fans dont have to watch

berto ever again....

who can enjoy watching that guy hold alllllllllllllllllllllllll night long


should have lost a point every other round, the ref was sooooo biased and

bought he never even issued a warning
