****** statement. Too bad we can't ask Arturo Gatti about that.

I'm sorry I omitted you from the list of whiners. If one punch makes you a dirty fighter IYO, fine with me.

Floyd is one of the dirtiest fighters in the game, he sucker punches, uses Elbows, hits the kidneys when he clinches up, the forearm and elbow to the throat.

Floyd cries the most thinking people will believe he isn't dirty. At least I can respect someone like B hop who admits to his tactics openly, Floyd needs to stop crying, you fight dirty yourself but get mad when someone else fights dirty back? seriously?

Floyd cries the most? Man, Floyd uses his forearms to create space. Floyd does not intentially catch anyone with elbows. Can you really call it a sucker punch when the ref says fight and his opponent is looking right at him?
Floyd complained in the Maidana fight because Maidana, constantly hit him in the back of the head, used his forearm and elbow (as well), Headbutted him repeatedly, threw low blows, and even tried to knee him.

I wish Maidana would quit crying about elbows. The way Floyd uses his elbows is maybe a little dirty but not illegal. The only thing you cant do with an elbow is throw it out like a punch or push someone off with it.

All floyd does is hold is elbow up and tight when people rush in wrecklessly (which Maidana does alot). When your trying to bear hug him of course it's gonna be in your throat. That's not illegal though

They can't make up their minds. First he was nothing more than a runner. Today, he's a dirty fighter. And yesterday, he was a cherry picker.

[redpilladvocate]

it's true, they're both dirty fighters.

People use the term "elbows" but in actuality Floyd uses his forearms to create space between he and an aggressive opponent so he can unleash offense. Usually occurs when Floyd is being smothered on the ropes. Not legal but not the indictment the word "elbows" suggest.

Exactly. Comparing a forearm used to create space to rabbit punches, knees, headbutts, and tackles, is reaching for the moon and expecting nobody notices how terrible your fighting really is.

Marcos figures "Since I can't win using the rough house tactics I trained for, I have no choice but resort to illegal ones to try and win. "

this is the truth. floyd constantly uses his elbows and will sucker punch.

haha. so true. This is NSB, what do you expect.

I mean the same guys are angry now because the ref in the rematch might actually call fouls and low blows as he should. But since they think it reduces the chance s Floyd will lose- they want the same refs they openly complain about.
