On this day: Floyd Mayweather has a rough night against Carlos Hernandez

[Squ□redCircle34]

He gets ****tted on a lot and it gets called coward but this was no cowardly move.

Lots of fighters quit when things got rough but FLoyd was in a really really tough spot and still overcame it.

If only Mayweather never had hand issues,I think we would've seen a more exciting fighter who throws more cuz before the hand issues he threw combos and was routinely hurting guys....except for Castillo that guy had a iron ceramic chin.

when fighting against other professional fighters who train in boxing for a living, u tend to have hard fights...

[bojangles1987]

Pretty weird that he was called a prospect here. He was a world champion and a p4p ranked fighter at this point.

A lot of articles were like this back then, very critical.

Especially of his potential to be a star. No one expected him to become what he did. The signs weren't really there.

Yep.........

I'm no floyd fan. I can't slate him for his ability but in this modern age when you see the ***** and all its hard to like him

That said it's mental this **** coming from a journalist. Back in the day before speak recognition software a journalist couldn't even type a birthday card with broken hands.

But this numpty is slating a guy with broken hands that still has to throw and fight

A bad break cuts through any adrenalin & u know it every time you clench your fist. Then you've got to throw to keep the guy off u.

Even blocking shots becomes hardwork

True, the article immediately acknowledged then completely dismisses Mayweather had 2 injured hands.
