    You act like Floyd has never been in a mismatch before. Wasn't he like a 10-1 favorite over maidana?


    At least Canelo closes the show over mismatched opponents. Can you say the same for mayweather?

          Here's what we have to look forward to next week.

          GGG obliterates Willie Monroe

          Fan tards rejoice "GGG is p4p #1, GGG saved boxing, who would win between GGG and Hagler, GGG just destroyed a slick brutha......."

          Level headed boxing fans say "Slow down, it was a good performance but it's Willie ****ing Monroe"

          Fan tards reply "Before the fight it was, GGG can't deal with slick bruthas, GGG can't beat movers, GGG ducks slick southpaws. Now Willie Monroe is all of the sudden a bum"

            It was just a fight to make people forget about the Lara fight...And It Worked!

            Yes that is a form of Cherry Picking especially when you're in a very talent Division that has plenty of Competition for you and you reach down for a guy who haven't fought in over a year. But Everybody knew when the fight was signed what the fight was for. It was strictly a stylistic match up for Entertainment!

            Mayweather and Pacquiao are PPV Stars, nobody wants to see them fight easy fights which is why Pacquiao vs Algieri did so bad

                I think you're being slightly harsh on Kirkland.

                  You don't get it, you really don't and none of that is even relevant. Also, I know he wasn't a 10-1 favorite to get Maidana out of there.

                  My point is, a shit fight involving Kirkland was used to continuously belittle the fight between Mayweather and Pacquiao, that's not suppose to be difficult to comprehend now. If all it took was that, then how far back would I have to go to see those two against a Kirkland-level opponent?

                  It's obvious which people are leaking with emotions now, they can't even stay on topic.

                    Only against Canelo is Kirkland a mismatch. He matches up well with any other JMW.

                    I understand Flowemoes are riding a high like none other right now after getting redemption on Pac after 5-years of being degraded but get ahold of yourselves. There's more to boxing than watching Floyd rob us blind and bore us in the ring. Get over yourselves.

                      The comparison was based on entertainment value. Its not like Kirkland was some no named bum and it wasn't on ppv so stop whining like little btchs
