Comments Thread For: Ricky Hatton: Mayweather-Pacquiao Damaged Boxing

[b00g13man]

I think your post is complete and utter bull****. But you're entitled to your opinion. What I wanna know is why are Manny's supporters putting all the blame on Floyd? This was the best two fighters of their era, who are two of the best fighters ever. This was thr best defensive fighter of his era, and one of the best defensive fighters ever. Against the best offensive fighter of his era, and one of the best offensive fighters ever. We knew what Floyd wanted to do. He just wasn't supposed to be able to do it against Manny. At least that's what your kind has been saying the last half decade+. Why wasn't Manny able to impose himself on Floyd? And when he saw that he couldn't, why didn't he go out guns blazin'? Why was Manny content to let Floyd coast to an easy win? And if you're from the school of, "Manny thought he was winning." If Manny truly thought he was winning and was content to coast. That sounds eerily familiar to what you just accused Floyd of doing. So in either scenario, according to your logic doesn't Manny deserve as much criticism as Floyd, if not more?

Well said.

Floyd is the only one destroyng boxing (cowardly hugger/cheater/runner)

I agree with the sentiment of the quote below. And I am sure millions of people do as well.

Why do people (and himself) call Floyd a "fighter"???

HE IS A COWARD THAT AVOIDS FIGHTING AS A MAN AT ALL COSTS. He hugs his opponent like he was his boyfriend, and the sold-out referees never do anything about it. He uses almost all possible cheating tactics to "defend himself": hitting and covering himself with his elbows, pushing, cheap-punching, rabbit punching, you name it...

He never, ever engages. Just watch the fights of REAL MEN compared to his. Watch all Manny-Marquez fights. Canelo-Kirkland. Bradley-Provodnikov. Mathysse-Provodnikov. Manny-De la Hoya. Manny-Barrera. Manny-Morales. Manny-Hatton. Marquez-Barrera. Morales-Barrera. Castillo-Corrales. Rios-Alvarado.

I mean who else fights like a TOTAL COWARD AND CHEATER and is even on the P4P list? I wish Maywearher wasn't an American. If he was Cuban like his similarly-cowardly fellow "fighters", Rigondeaux and Lara, he wouldn't even be close to be in the top P4P list, because referees would penalize him for hugging and cheating, and he wouldn't choose where to fight, what gloves to use, what blood test to be administered, what judges to use, what weight division or catch weight to fight on, and so on.

The American public is by far the best customer for boxing fights worldwide. They for some reason like having a coward and a cheater as their "undefeated champion" and love paying to see him act like that. So they have what they want. I hope that disgrace of a "boxer" retires soon and boxing goes back to life, so we can see REAL MEN having REAL FIGHTS.

P.S. I am very sorry for all the people who threw their money down the drain to see that "fight of the century" scam. But they knew beforehand that a coward and cheater was involved in it, so they got what they deserved.

As all of us know, Floyd - because of excessive holding and constant running - has been singlehandedly blamed by the boxing and general public for the boringness of the so-called "Fight of the Century" during which he managed to lose 4 rounds to a smaller man (5 inch reach disadvantage, 2 inch height disadvantage) who medical verification has proven beyond a shadow of a doubt...

was fighting with only one arm.


Now, Mayweather is trying to re-write history by manipulating public perception via the deceptive act of bogusly blaming Pacquiao for making the fight a boring dud. Specifically, he keeps blaming Pac's not being honest about his injury pre-fight for the reason for the fight's boringness.

THINK. The problem is: The more Mayweather blames Pacquiao's shoulder injury for the fight's boringness the more he admits that he indeed beat a one armed fighter, hence tainting and...

making meaningless his (Floyd Mayweather's) so-called "win."

Yeah! Mayweather destroyed boxing with his running and hugging. Floyd never has been and never will be a fighter. He proved it on that pathetic night.

What a load of crap that rant above was. I'm sure am Internet geek like you could show Mayweather how to "fight like a man". LOL

no it didnt man this is a ****** argument, ******* ruined YOU!

[12TRIBEsRiSe]

if pac man won the world would be singing a different tune, you all got caught up in pac being the chosen one and it turned out to be a lie now everyone is upset floyd won the fight the same way he has been winning the majority of his fights since moving to WW but nobody is angry at pac man for not doing what he usually does... cant use running as an excuse because algeirie moved more... freddie roach had no plan and they lost... floyd is not the first outboxer the sport has seen, this is getting pathetic, good thing we can always go back and watch Floyd KO this coke head when we need excitement!!!!!!

I can understand your frustration following a hype job that fooled you in believe he had a chance with Floyd

They should both retire . The sport will benefit as a result

There seems to be a misconception on what making the sport better is

Just because a fight is gonna sell a lot of ppv doesn't mean it's good for the sport

I'm seeing a lot of Floyd fanboys saying "go Floyd, take peoples money, they are idiots" if you don't believe me I'll quote some of these Floyd fans

Once again showing why they are the most hated on fanbase because they are pathetic

The 3 greatest fighters of this era should retire- Floyd, manny and bhop

Ironically, Floyd has beaten half of the "real men" you mentioned.

I'm still trying to figure out how Floyd, "took people's money." Everyone that bought a ticket or irdered PPV paid to see Floyd fight Manny. Floyd fought Manny. What else was he supposed to do?
