    Every fighter has been shook up before. What do you do after that is what sets you apart.

      The only time he's ever had to take a count was when his left glove touched the canvas, but that was from the extreme pain he was in from injuring his hands during the fight...he paused for a moment and his hands touched the floor, he has brittle hands..

        I understand your point, I just disagree. Boxing is a business, if all these guys truly felt the way they say they do about their opponents their wouldn't be any fights. Two people that genuinely hate each other wouldn't make concessions to each other allowing a contracted fight. My point is this isn't the WWF, boxing fans are attracted to the violence and the sweet science itself, the other bs isn't neccessary.

          What does that have to do with Floyd. Thats what we were talking about and I havent heard him say anything just ouright nasty about someone. Most of the times he's just bragging on himself. He might say that he can beat this guy or this guy wouldnt have any chance against him but nothing too bad

              your an idiot, giving me bad karma on a post you didnt even understand. floyd hasnt fought a top 5 guy in the 140 division, that is fact not opinion, you cant disagree with a fact moron

All Im sayin is when Floyd dominates this guy, dont try to downplay it like he didnt beat anybody because this board is famous for doing that. I say Floyd KO's him in 5 and no later then 7
                  you give him all the credit you want BROTHA!

                    Bruseles is gonna get beat decisively. All that Cotto helped him prepare stuff is bull crap. No one outside of of hard core boxing fans even know who bruseles is. Its a hand-picked tune-up fight for a well managed fighter. Dont get me wrong I know Floyd is good and very skilled. But what i'm saying is it seems more like people are trying to hype his foe then actually downplay floyd's skills. The business plan has always been and still is for Cotto and Mayweather to meet after gaining the belts. They wouldnt put Mayweather against a fighter they actually think is dangerous if there is no "real" money and fame involved.
