Comments Thread For: Roy Jones Jr: Pacquiao's Mistake Was Blaming Injury

[Wicky]

Manny's gone down in my estimations...

1. Decide if your injury is bad enough to postpone.
2. Make a firm decision either way. Commit.
3. Don't b1tch about anything afterwards.

People trying to sue is bulls4it too. It's boxing. Fighters are often injured in camp but go on to win. There's nothing unusual about this fight other than the hype.

People are just sore because the bet a stack on the loser. ****** really, he was always going to lose.

son, no matter how much times you replay the fight the outcome is NOT going to change

I dunno..... I watched the fight again 100 times in slow-mo, and I've started rethink my scorecard.....





Not.

It's still funny how the tickets didnt go on sale until the day Floyd found out about Manny's horrific injury. Almost makes you wonder if Floyd was going to pull out thinking Manny was too healthy. MayTurds dont wanna hear that though. They need a hero to replace their absent fathers.

I find it hilarious these pac fans like spoon and two sweet hooks typing up entire paragraphs like anyone is gonna read that garbage. Still hanging on like some japanese world war 2 veteran on an island not realizing the war ended in defeat years ago.

Honestly Manny fans. GGG has an entire bandwagon that needs to be filled. Go on YouTube, watch old fights, check out his wiki page and make it seem like you've known about the guy forever. Absorb a little knowledge and this pain won't be around forever.

And if the GGG express comes top a halt, I can show you a few others that might need a fanbase in the near future

I don't get why people avoid the "racial" element to all this. Obviously Roy Jones is backing his "brother" Mayweather. But beyond that I really think Jones was a) backing another black fighter and b) the bias was so blatant that Haymon paid Jones off to be biased. It is clear that Jones has had financial problems in the past and that is why he continues to fight. I think it is a good possibility that Haymon paid some of those debts off. But the funny thing is that all the Showtime guys (Paulie, Bernstein etc.) were backing their guy and Jones and even Lampley switched sides and were biased for Mayweather. HBO should really re-think if they should re-hire Jones in all honesty. Look at Paulie who is obviously getting a crap load of money under the table from Haymon to go after Pac at all costs and to make Floyd look like a God. The funny thing is when you look at the foreign feeds of the fight (as national broadcasts paid for rights to show the fight) the fight was scored quite differently. Three examples: the Peru broadcast had the fight 114-114, the Colombian had it 115 - 114 Mayweather and the Dominican feed had it 114-114. Also their compubox feeds were much closer. Obviously, these national contexts do not have any biases. I just feel Pacquiao got screwed. He did not get a fair shake. It was a close fight that is all that I am saying. The HBO and Showtime crew made Pacquiao out to seem as though he was some kind of scrub which obviously he wasn't. To be clear I think the fight could have been scored 6-6, 7-5, or 7-5. the 10-2 or even 8-4 cards were greatly biased. Were we expecting Pacquiao to get in the ring and mop the floor with Floyd? I think the sad thing is that before the bell rang the commentators did not perceive the combatants as equals. This was the travesty of the fight of the century in my opinion.

Blaming race and bringing up preuvian scorecards?

Absolutely pathetic. Its almost like you pac fans have scoured the earth to find ANYTHING to make this loss look good.
