    The judges know how to score a fight and you don't. You are arguing against the judges scoring the round because you are a Manny fan and are upset he lost. Had Manny actually won, you wouldn't be using doctored videos.

    Floyd is just better than Manny. As a Manny fan, you should be happy he used to be mentioned in the same breath as Floyd for as long as he was. Manny is a 1st ballot HOF'er. That is quite an accomplishment. Floyd is just an ATG. HOF'ers tend to lose to ATG's.

    Just let that be good enough. Stop putting him on a pedestal he doesn't belong on.

    .
    Floyd resorted to fouling and having a HUGE home court advantage. What would you have said if it was the opposite? Manny's home court?

    Everyone knows this but you and some Floyd fans.

    "but we all know how things are done when fighting Floyd Mayweather in Las Vegas. In that city the officials protect Floyd, let him do everything. Fighting him there is a burden".... "Look, do you know how Mayweather can be beaten? Only by KO and how can you KO an opponent who does not want to fight, who does not throw punches, and hits you with jabs and you have won the round but they still give it to Floyd" - Juan Marquez

      JMM said this, true, but that doesn't mean it in any way applies to the Floyd/Manny fight.

      There is no such thing as a home court advantage in boxing, that is just something Freedom and other clowns run with because Floyd or Ward beat a guy they like.

      Again, you should be spending time celebrating Manny's HOF career rather than whining about his loss to an ATG. I get that you thought Manny was something he wasn't, that's fine it was an honest mistake. We all make them.

      I get you don't know much about the nuances of the sport so you do not have the "sport specific vocabulary" to describe in boxing terms why Manny lost. That's ok too as you do not need to have that in order to enjoy the sport.

      Its almost July though. Its time to move on. Manny should work to end the politics in boxing so he can face Thurman, Lara or Khan before his career ends.

      I think if he worked to eliminate the politics that are hurting the sport, many fans would forgive him for the pathetic effort and the lying and poor sportsmanship afterwards.

        Not even Floyd believes what you are saying. Why do you think Floyd's fights are all at Vegas?


        Castillo 2 fight in LA rejected by Floyd:
        "The promoter was angling for an immediate rematch, wanting Mayweather to agree to fight at Staples Center.

        The fighter rejected the idea for an Aug. 10 date at Staples.
        Mayweather didn’t trust the judges and didn’t want to fight in front of a strongly Latino crowd supporting Castillo.



        “He doesn't know what he is doing,” Arum told The Times then. “He's got morons around him that have convinced him that fighting in L.A. is like fighting in Mexico. I don't know if he'll change his mind. Nobody can figure him out.

        “I asked Floyd if he trusted the judges in L.A. and he said, 'No.’ I asked him if he trusted the judges in San Francisco and he said, 'Yeah.' He doesn't even know L.A. and San Francisco are in the same state.”

            My wife and I missed the live fight of Marquez 3. We heard from people like you that Marquez should have won. We BOTH said, that's not good. If Marquez deserved it then he should get the win. I then watched the replay. It was close but I believed that Manny won.

            Floyd vs Manny:
            If Floyd is allowed to hug, head lock, push off, bend below the waist, ....... then that makes it much more difficult to do the things that Manny wants to do. For example, Manny DID get Floyd against the ropes and DID throw combinations BUT Floyd would then bend below the waist and reach out and grab Manny. Sometimes Floyd would move away but also push off, as an example.

            Floyd did what he did for a reason. It would make it difficult for Manny to mount a consistent offense and the ref allowed it.
            lol,what the ****?? was he suppose to stand there and get hit?

                Probably because Vegas is the #1 boxing town in the US and the world. Why you would bring up quotes from 2002 in a discussion about 2015 is strange, but ok.

                The quotes are factual, they just do not apply to this fight.

                Look, you can do as you wish but it would seem like a Manny die hard such as yourself would want to spend more time focused on his successes rather than his failures.

                There just isn't really anything more to discuss regarding the May 2nd fight unless they discover more PPV's were sold.

                Like I was saying, I hope Manny uses his position to do some good and try to end the politics that are preventing fights from happening.

                I think it would be better to remember him for something positive like that then how he went out on May 2nd.

                  Floyd fans response: Floyd is supposed to hug, headlock, push off, ..... that is foul. No other way or else he would get hit.


                  Like I said, Manny's defensive was actually more impressive than Floyd's. Manny didn't have to do all that fouling and still Floyd hardly hit Manny except for the occasional "touch" jabs.


                  Floyd fans now want Floyd to foul ....... Thanks for the laugh.

                    It was too prove to you that Floyd knows that Vegas is the place that protects Floyd and that he was afraid to fight elsewhere where he loses his home court advantage that you said "does not happen in boxing" . Back then Floyd was not making as much as nowadays. If the fight was in LA, Arum said it would have attracted a bigger audience.

                      Castillo 1 was 4/20/2002. Castillo 2 was 12/7/02 After that fight he fought in:

                      Fresno
                      Grand Rapids
                      Atlantic city
                      Miami
                      Atlantic city
                      Portland

                      Before fighting again in Vegas. So your point is wrong and ******ed. call it wrongtarded.
