How about when its ok for Floyd to only fight for money but when Martinez shows interest in going down to 154 for the money somehow he's ducking GGG, Pirog and Ward? Does that count?Originally posted by BushbabyQuote:

Stand up post right here. But worse than that, even while they admit all he does is fight for the highest reward, least risk, they still give him more credit than the fighters that don't have that luxury to choose who they fight.
Ahh it just hit me. I know what Chicano is talking about now, I think. You're talking about Pacquiao fighting Marquez again and not Bradley?

That's absolutely true. There is even videos of him saying that out of his own mouth and they believe shit like someone pointed a gun at Floyd. When a boxer who's hands are considered deadly, Floyd is the victim to them after putting them hands on a woman. They're the trashiest of trash. They care more about his money than they do their own.
Cotto fans are similar in a way now, I remember when they were actually an ok group of posters. Cotto's $$$$ this and that. Cotto is such a big draw with 100k PPVs fighting solo.Comment

It's the same ****, different names.
It's probably been going on since the Ali-Frazier days.
Double standards are just born by being a fan of a fighter more so than it is being the fan of the sport itself. At the end of the day we are ruled by our biases.Comment

Neither fighter drained their opponents. Pac asked Cotto to come in 1 lb lighter than he did in his previous fight, 1 freaking lb. Dawson said he could come down to 68 no problem and Ward obliged him.Comment

dum ass thread for dum ass pac turds,,

It really is that simple. But they gotta bring incompatible excuses to defend him. Dawson asked Ward obliged, cannot be compared to I wanna fight you at a catchweight.Comment

That's boxing/sports in general homie.. some can't seem to put their bias views aside.So every time I read around here I see nothing but fanboys talking **** about Pacquiao "draining" his opponents by a couple of lbs, always trying to discredit the guy. But then I turn around and see the same people put Ward #1 P4P over Floyd and Martinez. How does that work? Ward just drained his opponent by 7 freaking lbs. If he wanted to earn that #1 spot he should've challenged himself and gone up to 175. I mean, Floyd just did it. He went to Cotto's weight and beat him. And what has Ward done that Martinez hasn't? He's been KO'ing all his opponents in the process too. He probably would've KO'ed Chavez too if his damn hand hadnt broken and Chavez wasn't so damn huge.
I can't believe Im in here defending Floyd
. And just for the record I could care less where you have Pacquiao on your P4P list. But dont come in here saying Ward deserves to be above Floyd AND Martinez. To top it all off, he fights Dawson at 168 and 2 months later he's talking about going to 175. Wtf is that?
PS Oh then we have a moron around here talking about how Martinez was on his bike all night vs Chavez yet he is just fine with Ward's lame ass clinching and headbutting. I think we all know who Im talking about. Just wanted to give him a shoutout.
