Floyd Mayweather & Hopkins need to send Kirkland a check

Ah, some people just don't have the IQ I guess.
No bandwagon jumping here. I just think he deserves a lot more money for the effort he put in tonight, to comeback and win and Hopkins and Floyd (both who I like) should write him a check precisely because of their last fights, and how they ended.
They made PPV money, he didn't tonight. As the commentators said, this could easily be replayed on PPV and worthy of a buy.Comment

And for the record, this isnt' serious. I'm reacting off emotion of the fight I just saw.
Of course they won't give him any money. That's just how I feel right now, they should write him a check for this war.Comment

Hopkins especially should have got his whole purse withheld. Getting paid for a full night's work while so obviously faking out of the fight so early.

TS, are you just speaking on how the Floyd-Hopkins fight ended or are you speaking of them being so called boring? If its about being boring then I totally disagree but Im not sure you mean that so Ill let you explain 1st and yes I know you arent truly serious about them giving moneyComment

I have a B-Hop avatar; so obviously I'm a fan. Therefore not because he is boring. Same with Floyd.TS, are you just speaking on how the Floyd-Hopkins fight ended or are you speaking of them being so called boring?

It's because of how little they did in their last fight, and how much more they made. Compared to the hell Kirkland went through tonight to get a victory on a non-PPV event. Floyd more then Hopkins should send him a check, since he made over 20 million.Comment

how did they do little, e****ally Floyd? Also, why should Kirkland get extra credit for being more vulnerable? Its like punishing Floyd & Hopkins for having great D. I just never understood the thought of guys being seen as warriors or given 10x more credit just because they take punishment. Same with Gatti, Katsidis, and so on. Sure its great to watch but dont give them extra credit for it or take away credit from guys who have mastered the craft of not getting hit.I have a B-Hop avatar; so obviously I'm a fan.

Again, I know youre a B-Hop fan so thats not what you mean all the wway but its also not fair to act like he did so much more just because he went through hell. If thats the case then he owes them alot more for getting KO by Ishida in 1 round while they were going 12 hard rounds in other fights.
I know what you meant with your overall point. You just wanted to give him a ton of credit because he makes so little compared to them but gave a warrior's performance and youre in the moment just like you said but the respect of the fans and viewers are more then enough. He can take that and turn it into money for his next fight when everyone will want to see him again nowLast edited by DLT; 11-05-2011, 11:31 PM.Comment

Floyd didnt even give any bonus to his undercards who saved his arse
his fight with ortiz is worth nothing but a penny
suckerpunching a Class C fighter to win
he just stole his fans and haters money and said goodbye see ya next year
