why is floyd- khan a bad fight, yet pacquiao rios is good?

[Bushbaby]

It's mind boggling how the lesser Floyd fan thinks. It's as clear as day that Floyd is a better fighter than Pacman. It was proven within Pacman's last 3 fights. (Of which Floyd fans rejoiced over Pacman's destruction).

Fastforward to the present, Pacman is making his ring return against Rios. Ok, given the circumstances that is understandable. But Floyd/Khan is still horrible. There's no way to justify the farce. Floyd's looked at as the best fighter in the sport. (Ward is to me). There's no reason why the supposed best fighter in boxing needs to be sharing the ring with the likes of a less than average Amir Khan. When was the last time Khan actually looked good against anyone decent??

In regards to a khan/mayweather match up, the reason I think it is a garbage fight is the fact that Khan, while being a money drawing name, has not had a significant victory in quite a while. His last fight he struggled heavily against a man of gate keeper caliber, before that was knocked out by Danny Garcia, and before that lost to Peterson (which was overturned due to illegal substance, but even so he was not impressive at all). Nothing on Khan's recent resume is deserving of a superfight. And I LIKE Khan overall, but I can't let that bias blind me if those facts.

Both Manny and Brandon are coming of losses, Manny is on a two fight losing streak and in reality doesn't deserve anything much above a Brandon Rios fight. Also, I think it is foolish if a fighter tries to jump right into a super fight right after being knocked out cold.


I hold BOTH Manny and Floyd accountable for avoiding Sergio (they both avoided Williams as well). Who competes for a title in a higher weight class and then doesn't expect for the heavier fighters to want to fight? Both Floyd and Manny fought at the heavier weight against fighters who were unproven in that division and had no possible chance in the fight. They both fight at a catch weight. Sergio was willing to go as low as 150 lb. And Sergio is considered to be a small middleweight.

Top post bro,I really don't understand TS question..Has the guy been under a rock all yr long??

No, it isnt Larry. He went on one of his meth and cheap cider meltdowns yesterday as was evident by the numerous 'Nobody loves floyd..waahhh..manny pee pee, floyd poo poo waahh' threads he churned out at the same time this idiot was being 'productive'.

I think it might be stax or sucketts or some such prick.

I can agree with this post for the most part. That said, a manny ko win is seen as returning him to him to the #1 ranked ww position and making the floyd fight a big deal again. Should a win over a 2nd tier jww moving up have this much value? SHouldn't a guy beat an established ww before a potential fight for the lineal ww title?

Manny was a ww champ and seen as the 2nd best ww while fighting the JWW/LW's moving up. This blueprint was put in place well before he got KO'd. Now its justifiable because of the KO? I disagree.
I think the above are fair and valid criticisms of this fight, in addition to it not being ppv worthy.

That would put you at odds with just about everybody inside the sport and everyone that isnt a bumsniffing fanboy. Its a long road back for any fighter who has just been sparked out, 99% of fighters dont come back at all well after that and certainly not one who is approaching the end of a very long and gruelling career.

Run me a list of fighters who came back brilliantly after getting knocked out in devastating fashion and I'll show you a much longer one of those that didnt. I know you're a floydgimp and as such, objectivity is not something we can count on or expect from you, but your post was unbelievably ******.

Pac ran roughshod over the last batch of legit welters, in a span of 18 months. What passes for top welters now are guys with 1-2 welter fights, usually unimpressive. Or Thurman, who has potential but not 1 top 10 win yet, or Brook, perpetually unprepared to face a top tenner.

Everybody knows that Floyd/Pac excluded, Bradley and JMM are the best at welter. Pac already fought them, and just offered them career paydays that they passed on.

be honest you just hold floyd to standards that arent even humanly, yall treat him like hes superman or something i mean you are calling for him to fight middleweights and super middle weights,,you want him to fight sergio yet when sergio called manny out you didnt make a peep

why is floyd held to such high unhuman standards by fickle fans?

Pac is held to a far higher standard than Floyd. Pac fights JMM, Bradley and then JMM within 16months and gets criticised for taking on 3 top 6 p4p fighters in a row.

Floyd not only very rarely fights such high quality and rated opposition let alone in small time frames let alone 3 in row at that.
Because Floyd don't fight often and much, he will of course have to make up for it in other ways by fighting, highly rated or bigger fighters.
None of which he does anyway. Canelo wasn't a top 10 p4p fighter. Speaks for itself.
