Common myths in boxing

[Beercules]

Castillo didn't beat Floyd the first time

[Daylyt]

The running is boxing

Abril is a great boxer

[Bigg Rigg]

I'll start...Duran dominated Leonard...and Leonard dominated the rematch....both were razor close fights separated by one and 2 rounds

The way Leonard won the rematch was lame though. The first fight was great! When I first saw that fight, I knew who won already but I was as excited as if I was watching the fight live.

feel free to elaborate my friend....

Is it true that the movie, "Blood and Bone" starring Michael Jai White is loosely based off of your prison stint?

[SouthPawHitman]

Yeah you really gave it to me there bud lol...1 punch in 1700 knocks him out...it was statistically lucky you imbecile....
You obviously can't read, which puts you right in the Mayweather loving demographic....
I'm 6-2 210 and ripped...doesn't mean I could fight for even 5 minutes straight..physical appearance don't mean ****....
Now run along to mommy son...

Luck isn't even a real thing...

Listen son I kept it 100. I dropped truth all over your ass.

Read my post carefully and you might learn something about boxing.

why do you keep mentioning Shamba Mitchell?


Bob Arum, Mayweather***8217;s promoter at the time said that Mayweather preferred to await the outcome of the May 6 Oscar De La Hoya-Ricardo Mayorga fight instead of committing to Margarito because he would prefer to fight De La Hoya.

Arum stated that Mayweather would have fought Margarito for the 8 million, but he wanted a guaranteed 10 million to fight Miguel Cotto and Ricky Hatton. Arum only guaranteed him 7 million. And for those who don***8217;t know Cotto and Hatton were at the Mayweather-Gatti fight and Cotto was ranked number 5 by the ring at the time (Proof: Listen to the commentary Jim Lampley at the end of round 5) . Cotto had just moved up to the 140 pound weight class and he didn***8217;t make an offer to fight Mayweather after the Gatti fight.

Arum said Mayweather also asked for $20 million to fight De La Hoya, a fight Arum said he wasn***8217;t interested in participating in. ***8220;That***8217;s not in the cards,***8221; Arum said. ***8220;He wants $20 million for the De La Hoya fight? It***8217;s not there. Sometimes, my man, you gotta know when to hold ***8216;em and when to fold ***8216;em. We***8217;ll talk about things down the road.***8221; Notice this part Arum was talking.

why do you keep posting this nonsense? you clearly don't even comprehend what it says. i'll fight margarito if you give me a 20 million guarantee to fight hoya? lol that's a bunch of bollocks. he priced himself out. he only got 10 guarantee when he actually fought him(proof 20 million guarantee was absurb and proof that floyd's demands were made up and not serious). another duck. you try to use this as evidence for him not ducking lol. saying i'll fight margarito if you give me 20 million guaranteed to fight hoya is the same exact thing as saying i'll fight maragrito when pigs fly. 20 mill wasn't there for him. floyd knew this and priced himself out. this can be confirmed because floyd accepted just 10 mill when he actually fought hoya.

also what does this have to do with him turning down 7 million and fighting sharmba for 4? can you explain why he did that? i mean this is the money man right?

Where is your evidence?

[daggum]

Where is your evidence?

"Arum and Diaz say that the 'Pretty Boy' was offered in the neighborhood of $7 million to face Margarito. In what could best be described as a 'business move', the same guy who brazenly challenged the bigger Winky Wright decided to bypass Margarito, to collect nearly $4 million to spar with Sharmba Mitchell.

"Flat turned him down like you can not believe," Arum said of Mayweather when he was offered a chance at the WBO title.

i'm sure you need more evidence than that though. you need the actual contracts? everyone is lying but floyd! his own promoter was lying! boxing writers were all lying! floyd fights on all comers!

So your evidence is from a guy that will say whatever benefits his position. Also you did not even give an article or a source for these quotes so who reported these?

how does it benefit arum to bash his own fighter lol and a fighter that makes him millions of dollars. all he wanted was to match both his fighters like he always does and floyd didn't want to so he was frustrated. it was on maxboxing. the original link is so old its' dead but there's many transcriptions of it around the net quoting it. they are all lying! i guess it didn't happen! floyd saved on another technicality! still undefeated!
