Comments Thread For: Mayweather-Pacquiao: Bayless as Ref, Judges Selected

[Fetta]

dude do you know how process works for picking refs and judges? The commission gives each team a list of people they pick who they want turn it in and whoever they agreed on makes final cut for commission to pick the commission makes they choice lets fighters camps know and if they have an issue with a selection they can protest obviously no one had a problem with the selection so why are you complaining so much

Because Floyd is the most powerful man...ever. Hes god-like to Pac fans

floyd clinching helps manny because after the break manny is now close enough to do his 3-4 punch flurry and get out of there he doesn't have to take punches now to get close enough to try and land his flurries before jumping out

sorry i don't understand what you are saying. floyd clinching manny helps manny? no. floyd clinching manny helps floyd because it stops manny from throwing punches at him.

sorry dude you aren't making sense. a fighter clinching manny helps manny? no just no. manny doesn't want to be clinched because he can't get off punches when someone is holding him. doesn't matter if its a quick break or not. clinching is bad for manny and good for floyd. its also illegal but bayless never read the rules.

Clinching is not illegal over excessive clinching can cause a point deduction though and clinching and if Floyd wants to clinch once they broken up manny is already in range to get off his flurries eliminating all the extra work he would have to do to get close enough to land and clinching also stops Floyd Lowering his work rate even more then what it already is

No, we just don't want to see a referee spoil what could be a great fight. 'In-fighting' is just as much a part of boxing than is fighting on the outside - for a ref to out-and-out prohibit it, kind of spoils things. Bayless and Luis Pabon both have reffed fights where virtually no in-fighting is allowed.



Exactly, and Pac has to go along if he wants the fight to happen

From the word go, for this fight to happen, It's either Floyds way, or the Highway. Pacquiao only really gets 2 things, Gloves, and HBO gets to be a part of the telecast

lowblowing is not illegal but lowblowing too much can cause a point deduction derp!!!!

He stunk in the maidana Floyd rematch and watched Mosley /pac last night and he ruled a knock down for Mosley when he was clearly watching Shane push Pac to the mat..
They all stink so what's the difference, smoger would have been the only guy we wouldn't have to worry about ever interfering lol.

i could see that if you wanted floyd to lose but after how the first fight went and what maidana got away with its not really a surprise

[Robbie Barrett]

The only problem with Pac Stans theory that Bayless will stop Manny fighting inside, is Manny doesn't fight inside.

lowblowing has always been illegal fool lol clinching is taught to do if your hurt or to stop someone onslaught close range excessive clinching can cause a point deduction you can't get a warning from clinching one time but you can for throwing one lowball or if it's blatant that you did on purpose point taken away right there derp

sorry i don't understand what you are saying. floyd clinching manny helps manny? no. floyd clinching manny helps floyd because it stops manny from throwing punches at him.

Manny can't fight inside, Mayweather can. Bayless preventing inside fighting helps Manny.
