    Not sure how you can draw a comparison between Mayweather and Holyfield, yet exclude Pacquiao, save for a cheap shot. Your bias toward Mayweather is so strong; even though I didn't name him in my post, you coudn't resist praising him in yours.

      I normally like insight from fighters! But Evander thought Pac won, he's senile!

        This thread is about Holyfield's opinion on the fight, so thought it relevant to mention Holyfield, Floyd and Manny.

        All I said was he "stayed true to himself", while Manny didn't. That's factual and hardly praise.

          Ward! He has a relationship with HBO, yet even they wouldn't buy the rights to air his comeback fight with Paul Smith! Who? Exactly! So which network will air Andre "SOG" Ward's comeback fight after 1.5 years out of the ring? BET! Who? that's right, BEmotherf'nT! You're hoping that Ward someday gets to try to beat up on a smaller fighter in GGG. I'm hoping that he gets to fight on a premium channel again!

            Compubox also showed that Pacquiao landed a lot of punches, which was not true, most of the punches were flurries when Floyd was on the ropes and 90% of them got blocked or partially blocked, Pacquiao only landed to the body, compubox still said that Pacquiao landed much more shots than he actally landed.

              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.
              USADA has nothing to do with the commision, and the commision needs a proof of injury to allow u to take anything on fight night, you can just tell them 90 mins before the fight that my shoulder hurts give pain killer, of course they'll say no, u can as well tell them give me pain killers cuz my rib cage hurts so that body shots don't hurt u! it was NOT a technicality, it was a last minute back up excuse from Pacquiao's camp!

                Holyfield could box, punch or brawl. He was not as limited as Mayweather is.

                  Ah, but the reference to Manny was a shot, while the reference to Floyd was certainly praise. Both are your opinions, and not necessarily fact. You are so biased toward Floyd, you don't even realize you are praising him. Notice how my original post trashed the fight we saw last Saturday, without showing bias toward either fighter. They both ******.

                    Former undisputed cruiserweight and heavyweight champion Evander Holyfield left the MGM Grand feeling very unsatisfied last Saturday night. The Hall of Famer came to Las Vegas to watch the showdown pushed as the "Fight of The Century" as Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Manny Pacquiao finally collided. Mayweather on a twelve round unanimous decision victory.

                    "I’ve attended the three biggest fights of the year so far: Deontay Wilder vs. Bermane Stiverne, Wladimir Klitschko vs. Bryant Jennings, and now Mayweather vs. Pacquiao. And you know what I’ve seen? Not much boxing. In 36 total rounds, I saw zero knockdowns. I saw a lot of holding and hugging, and a lot of running. I saw three, 12-round unanimous decisions," Holyfield told the Player's Tribune.

                      Floyd didn't suck, Manny did. Had Manny fought like Hatton, for example, then we'd have had a KO. Floyd fought exactly how he always does, Manny didn't. I praise great skills, which Floyd showed. I have disdain for fighters that don't fight to win.

                      That's why I posted what I did. Yes, I am a Floyd fan. My opinion is based solely on what I saw on Saturday night. It's an opinion shared by the majority.

                      If you think my opinion is based solely on liking Floyd, so be it.

                      I have posted a lot of stuff regarding this fight and Manny for years. Somehow, he turned out to be exactly the guy I said he was and lost exactly how I said he would. he then was a sore loser and liar, just like I said he was.

                      Maybe, I'm just a lucky guesser.
