Comments Thread For: Planet Floyd

[BoxingTrav]

Still waiting on the first article where this scarcastic prick gives credit to the best fighter of this generation.

Floyd is truly a genius who is dedicated to his craft. He remains disciplined despite all the negativity thrown his way. It's amazing how he adapts to every fighter in everything fight. Pac tried, he did not hold back from throwing the right hand. We all know what we saw. He couldn't solve Mayweather. He just couldn't. He's a special fighter and would've been trouble for most fighters that night, but not the best

Hauser writes with a Top Rank/HBO bias but he still is one of the best around. This article isn't exactly his best stuff but maybe I expect too much from him.

The fact that people can't appreciate the greatness that is the writing of Thomas Hauser just goes to show how woeful the modern boxing fan is. I suspect most of the poster's here that don't like this article really do believe Floyd is 'TBE'. Maybe they would prefer a Ben Thompson video special in the back of Floyd's Bentley, LOL.

What's funny is that people like you think you're the smartest guy in the room because you like his writing. People know bias when they see it or read it. There is definitely a bias here. Floyd didn't fight a one armed man. If you were a true boxing fan, then you could see that in round 1. That round will tell you everything you need to know about the fight and this article tells me everything I need to know about you and Thomas Hauser.

Interesting read. Hauser should have disclosed that he was one of the writers whose press credential was initially denied and that he writes for a site sponsored by TR.

Didn't read the article. Hauser is a Top Rank/HBO shill, just as bad as Steve Kim, just more experienced. In recent times, all his articles have ever been on Floyd, Showtime and Al Haymon. Nothing the otherwise. That should truly show you where his bias lies.

This is one of the best articles I've read on this site. Perhaps the best.

Its the only good article I can remember reading this whole year here. Lots of great information, and lots of prescient points.

Sadly, this.

As long as you walk into any Hauser article with the understanding that any 'unnamed sources' or 'insiders' will 95% of the time be Bob Arum/Top Rank and the title of any article dealing with Haymon/Mayweather/Showtime (and for a while, Golden Boy) should start with the phase "This represent Bob Arum's view of (insert article title here)", you'll be okay.

It just eats away at some that a "villian" is on top of the sport. Some just hate the taste of crow and will do anything and believe anything to avoid it.
