Comments Thread For: Larry Merchant's Take on Pacquiao vs. Marquez III

[fceeviper]

Kellerman was most unbiased of the HBO crew, he called it a 6-6 draw. I actually think a little more of him for that.

He is the only one of them I actually like, he always tells it like it really is about all subjects concerning Boxing.

people are getting carried away with the marquez domination. . . it was a very close fight. . . it's just people get carried away because the marquez rounds were much more convincing than the pac rounds. . . it's certainy easier to justify a marquez win, but you can justify a 115-113 pac win. . . I think it's a draw after rewatching a few times with no commentators. . . maybe a 115-113 marquez victory. . . it is what it is.. . we can only move forward and hope that pac and may settle their score first, and then marquez gets one last crack. . . . LOVE BOTH THESE FIGHTERS - both are what boxing is all about. .. A RIVALRY FOR THE AGES!!! the ALI/FRAZIER OF OUR FISTIC ERA!!!!

I agree, even though I got it 115-113 for Pac, but I can understand the impression people get that JMM won. He set the pace, and Pac let him set the pace for the fight. Given the way JMM was seen as a kind of stepping stone on the way to a Mayweather fight, it made his performance stand out even more. After all the experience of 24 rounds of fighting Pac weighed heavier than the 24/7 hype and the weight discussion. Still I can understand the judges scores, also considering Pac´s the champ and JMM didn´t quite do enough to take the championship from him. I think the hype just really really backfired.

Seriously though. All my points to all of your points that you cannot find ONE SINGLE post of mine where I predict a Pacquiao KO.

Step up, or STFU.

Who cares, in HBO they all swim in the same direction.

Larry Merchant(AKA Larry MoreShit) is a Mexiphobic Pacquiao apologist. That's all that needs be said about any of his comments EVER.

[kingfaze19]

hes part of HBO..so of course hel kiss PacFraud's A.SS .. Floyd has never been the obstacle, PacFraud couldve gotten KO'd years ago but his Pimp Bob Arum doesn't think is time to feed his ********** to the wolf quite yet... hes still cashing in on him, while Manny gets the crumbs of the profit, and he can't even answer the question if he wants to fight Floyd ''it's up to Bob Arum'' no it's not u stutterin Fraud it's up to u , take control of ur own destiny, so if Arum tells him he must fight Casamayor next hel be ok with that since ''it's Bob Arum's job who i fight''...

he has never agreed to RANDOM testing, it's always with a cut-off date, that defeats the whole purpose of calling it RANDOM, since he wants a deadline to it.. the Fraud is hiding something, and has been exposed as a one dimensional amateur who cannot make adjustments while hes getting countered with the same punch constantly..

i really dont like larry merchant but i cant disagree with anything hes saying

No need to play the race card. You're gonna' shoot yourself (and the rest of us as well) in the foot w/that **** at some point.

Btw, you could be derided for ageism there, slick. With the Baby Boom in control of all the money and the levers of power, do think you help yourself w/that ****? Or hurt yourself?

Wake up.




Re Larry : Larry, those high expectations cut the other way too. Pac got credit for landing a bunch of punches that he didn't land because the entirety of the boxing media has been so far up his bum as to only be able to see the daylight through his nostrils. Thought that didn't include you, Larry but I guess I was wrong.

I forgot...if you believe that anybody is a bigot then you're "playing the race card". Spare me. If that's what I think then that's what I think. You can call it playing the race card, double dutch, or peanut butter. Have at it.
