      I can't believe what I am reading from these *****s. Pac is a joke now? Please all floyd did was run and hug I don't give a crap what anyone else says. Hopefully the next super fight won't be as crap as this one was.

Well gues what african americans? The sport is aobut to lose half his fans because the fight of the century was 5 years too late because floyd was scared to fight a prime pacquiao
        For someone who has the word "boxing" in his name you don't seem to like it very much.

        Idk why you started putting race in it though.

          Hopefully there will be a time in the future where this is normal again.
          These two guys are at a whole different level above this generation, it's not fair to be honest.

            i actually enjoyed "Parasite the maxim" over the winter. don't ask me why


            i thought the music was good, and the animation was superb for digital, modern anime. the story was silly, but it was entertaining.


            i've been chipping away at dragon ball and DBZ over the last few months. they don't make them like they used to.

              As long as the scoring system isn't revamped, there's no incentive for guys like Floyd to win rounds with more than 2-3 clean punches a round.....that and being able to avoid all stylistic matchups you dont like because of the lack of unified rankings at the top of the sport...

              It used to be that the scoring would punish spoiling and there were less sanctioning organizations.....which made for better fights....

              If you dare suggest modifying the rules to favor entertainment in boxing, all Floyd fans are gonna slit their wrists though...

              I mean.....boxing has gone from fight until someone gets KO'ed to 15 rounds to 12....more weightclasses...day before weigh ins.....but modify rules for entertainment??how dare you!!!!!!

                floyd didn't choose to be great that night. he chose to be a runner and putting manny in headlocks potshotting coward fraud.

                who will remember or care about that mayweather vs pacquiao fight 10 years from now??? boxing took a huge hit after that joke of a fight.

                  Awesome post. I am waiting for everything to die down before making a thread on Floyd's style because it's becoming more and more apparent that the dude is playing the system. I know the bragging rights means more than anything to his fans but at some point, we have to ask what the hell is going on here.

                    yeah agree , I mean come on he was paid that huge amount of money and surely that's got to be some accountability to provide entertainment to fans ? yeah Floyd fans will go on and on and on about the unbeaten record and he fights to win but bull**** hes never going to be talked about in revered terms like the warriors of the sport , its a ****ing travesty that guys like micky ward never had been paid in those huge amounts what he and gatti did in there fights that deserved that amount of money not a hugger runner like Floyd.

                      There will be no accountability for this fight because his fans only care about bragging rights. And I kinda understand, this whole Pac-May mess went on for too long for their not to be taunting from the Floyd fans.

                      But his style these days is painful and headache-inducing. And also, practically unbeatable. If Floyd was an emerging fighter with this style, he'd be blackballed worse than Rigo, who at least throws punches with bad intentions.

                      It isn't just casual fans who are bored. He's refined a style that just shuts down the possibility of an engaging fight. Even the great Nacho Beristain called the style "weird". He's truly a great fighter but so were Leonard, Hearns, Duran and those guys knew how to entertain. That was in the job description. That was woven into their style. I just feel when you are a PPV star and the face of boxing, you have to bring something more. Just shutting down the other guy and winning, fight after fight? Not for me. There's a reason none of the greatest fights in boxing history are pot-shotting masterclasses.
