Comments Thread For: HBO's Lampley: Taints Pacquiao's Career, Bad for Boxing

[elfag]

But still throwing salt by saying Manny was injured. No form of Pacquiao beats Mayweather and I think everyone saw this on May 2nd.

Mayweather coasted in 1st gear the entire fight except a little in the 11th when he turned it up some. Pac had no answer for his movement, his control of space, his jab, his left hook over the top of Pac's right and his defense.

Im dissapointed May didnt open up more but theres quite a bit more he can do even if Pac is at 100%, he aint beating Mayweather.

Too bad Christopher Nolan went soft at the end, tainting the entire movie.

Basically, HBO is not paying for a rematch. Bob Arum has really ****ed up NOW! Crawford beats Pacquiao, and Manny retires!

Uh Oh.

Back to Macau!

You know it's bad when Lampley isn't on Pac's side.

Lampley is on HBO's side.

Why do people forget that?

Is this post for real?

Never in the history of boxing has a fighter/trainer downplayed their own chances, or let on they are carrying an injury.

There are a plethora of reasons why Freddie would hype things up. And yes, selling the fight is one. Just as Mayweather promises the fans an exciting fight each time . Floyd is the king of selling fake promises.

You are a certified idiot.

u really are ******ed. i have no issue with him talking ****. good. talk ****. but to talk as much **** as he did, continuously when he knew he wanted to postpone a fight, yea its bull****. u got your head stuck so far up team pacs ass u cant even make sense anymore. roach could have shut up, he didnt have to say anything one way or another. did he do that? no he made a fool of himself and his fighter. he literally talked numerous ppl into believing his hype only to come in afterwards and say "i wanted to postpone." hahahahaha. u cant make this up. and like i said, had this been floyd, imagine. just imagine. u were literally the only one who came in here defending this ****. its that pathetic. but carry on. hahahahaha

That's why I was highly disappointed after watching the fight the first time because he could have put a beating on Manny but he coasted with the attitude that if he doesn't have to work he won't. Sr was cussing him out in the corner like he knew Floyd could tax Manny but Floyd just wanted to clown him. I say Floyd should have done more but he beat Manny fair and square. No version of Manny would beat Mayweather because there is a large space between them in regards to ring smarts and skills. Manny was hyped up to be the one to beat Mayweather but Guerrero and Maidana did much better than he did.

I wish I was as objective and bias-free a poster as you are. Teach me your ways.

i was very objective and unbiased going into this fight. i had no issue with anyone picking pac. i was sure floyd would win. but ill tell u this, if it was floyd making excuses i would not be defending him. if his father was talking all that **** i would not be defending him either. i never believe in after fight excuses. period. in fact most on here dont. when floyd had the same injurin in the castillo fight, no1 wanted to hear it. no1 uses that **** at all when talking about the fight, including myself. but now look at u *****es. keep it up tho. tell me about myself. because obviously i hate pacquiao right?? as embarassing as him and his team have been i said from jump it sucks seeing him go out like that. just admit who the **** u are and stop trying to make it about other ppl. u are in these threads embarassing yourself right now. no1 wants to hear that. cuz like i said, had it been floyd, you wouldnt be making these same arguments. stop wasting my time and go pick up some preparation h.

yea because there isnt a difference between selling a fight and lying about an injury and then using it as an excuse. that the same exact **** right. u are doing a good job in here. keep it up. spread the gospel. show everyone how much of a joke you are.

Gotta agree with everything Lampley said.

The whole situation is a massive debacle and disaster, and it's on the Pacquiao camp. There's no way to spin it any other way.
