Evander, "The Real Deal" Holyfield was a small HW, but he was always known as a warrior. Even as a CW, he never ran from a fight. That **** that we saw last Saturday certainly was NOT a fight! Things sure have changed; we pay much more for far less.

Originally posted by megas30 View PostHolyfield is also one of the dirtiest fighters that ever fought. He is bitter because his so-called "brother in christ" lost. He's a hypocrite, so his words mean ****. Where was christ when he was having multiple children by multiple women? He had to fight till he was in his fifties, because he went broke being an idiot. Now, he sees someone like Floyd with the same skin color as him and is jealous because he feels it should have been him. All this is just envy and jealousy. Look at the black fighters who are hating on Floyd and you will see they are the ones who went broke. Holyfield, Tyson, Holmes, Jones, etc. The rich ones like Sugar Ray, Foreman, Lennox, and even current fighters give him his props.
If the ref lets Floyd do whatever, Floyd will do it. Floyd is subtle about it usually but he does it just enough to disrupt the opponent's offense and the ref lets him get away with it. Yes, there may be the occasional soft warnings but no hard warning and no point deductions.
Look in the Vladimir fight. The ref gave Wladimir a hard warning early and that helped limit the holds. Sure the ref could have done more and Vladimir didn't completely stop but it wasn't as bad as other times. If it was a closer fight, that point deduction could have been costly.

Why do people keep saying Mayweather was hugging? He did very little hugging, and nothing worth ever putting him in the same breath with Wlad the ******er.

Sorry that Floyd couldn't just sit there and eat combinations, you know he did what boxers do....try to avoid getting hit while hitting the other guy.
Then there is the hugging, elbowing, head locking, bending below the waist.
On top of that, they put a judge like Dave Moretti who has judged 9 of Floyd's last 11 fights and you see that he gives little credit to the offensive fighter. Go check out his score in the Maidana 1 fight. He gave Floyd most of the rounds in the beginning of the fight where Maidana was the most effective.

Sure they didn't complete the questionnaire correctly but even the commissions knew prior to the fight. Even Teddy Atlas said that the commissions should have allowed the injection instead of not giving due to a technicality. Yes, you read that right, Teddy Atlas who hates Manny said that.
