Originally posted by PBP View PostMan. I'm just looking at some old fights. You see all these great skilled boxers who had long reigns end with controversial decisions. Holmes/Spinks, Hopkins/Taylor, Whitaker/De La Hoya etc.
They couldn't wait to knock those guys off the top and the minute they had a close call, they took their belts from them.
They tried to do it to Floyd with Canelo and I'm sure Pac would have gotten the nod if it was remotely close.
But dude is just so dominant you just can't steal these decisions from him with a straight face.
For the Manny fight, it was close. Lederman gave round 2 to Manny. After analysis, round 3 was clearly Manny's.
So after 6 rounds, Manny could have been up 4-2.

Originally posted by ADP02 View PostThats it. The commentators were not seeing the fight the way they should have. There were rounds where Manny did more yet the commentators were to busy saying that Floyd held and stopped Manny's attack. True but what about those shots that did connect prior to the foul from Floyd?
Some shots that Manny got Floyd with could only have been done by Manny. Yet the commentators were too busy talking and missed some of the action or saying that Manny had to do more. Well, Floyd had done less, what about that?
I said it BEFORE the fight that I expected Manny to have this type of game plan and would only change it up if they felt that they were losing. So I was not surprised. I was certainly concerned though knowing who the judges are (Vegas judges) and knowing who the home town guy was. Floyd.

And when Floyd landed right hands they were over the moon.
Pile of hooey if you ask me, but I'm not fooled.

Originally posted by Hype job View PostThey glossed over his work too, when Manny landed that double left in my sig there was a muted reaction from the commentary team, even on the replay of it Bernstein was unenthusiastic and subdued "oh, a double left hand"

Maybe it was because they had commentators from 2 networks but the commentating was not what one would call "Commentating of the Century"

So yes Floyd got booed before the fight as you have said, to add he was also booed after the fight. Happy lol
So that you can catch up with what we were talking about read back to why Floyd got booed after being announced the winner. If you have some common sense left in you. You'll know what's up. Aside from the obvious that Floyd is a complete tool you should get why he got booed

There's nothing to agree to disagree on.
You let commentators sway your opinion, I don't.
You have to be terribly weak minded to not know whats infront of you and have a commentator, Jim Watt no less, form an opinion for you.

He was booed both before and after the fight occurred, so common sense dictates that the reason for the boos had nothing to do with "not deserving the win", and more to do with the fact that he isn't liked.
Was that simple enough, or should I explain it using less complex words?
