    Recently Mayweather-Berto.

    I was ringside for Floyd's alleged final fight and he could easily have gone up the gears and put on a performance instead of cruising to a boring decision and having barely any offence against a sitting duck.

    Then after the fight said "I didn't even try, I just wanted to finish my contract"

    Well **** me, people pay hard earned money man. I paid a lot of money to sit ringside and then you go and say that? Pathetic to be honest.

      Wow.

      Ringside?

      That must have cost a lot.

      No wonder. Ha.

      That's like when somebody posts that "You Mad?" meme and you can say, "Hell yes I am!" and people nod, thinking I would be too. Sorry to hear it man.

        Cotto when he loses shows no sportsmanship to his opponent or tge sport and walks out of the ring I understand him being upset with the judges score cards but show some class in defeats.

          130 up he just didn't look the same. Even against the likes of Chavez and Famoso despite winning he didn't impress. But they are good underrated fighters but Morales obviously more than a level above. And Chavez in partiuclar pushed him very close and had him badly rocked.

          That's excluding the Pacquao win where he turned back the clock.

          Legend though, one of my all time favourites.
          I agree with everything you said, One great moment I liked from past prime morales was when he fougth david diaz. David Diaz in teh first round was looking like he was too big and strong for Morales and even stunned morales towards teh end of the round and morales tried to go safety first cause it seemed like the moment was overwhelming Morales then all of a sudden it was like BAM he was HELL NO I'm EL TERRIBLE ERIK MORALES and fired back and dropped Diaz. I was like hell yeah!

          LEGEND!

            Most definitely.

            I loved the Maidana fight, no one expected to last 6 rounds, not only did he but he arguably won, with one eye no less! Sums up Morales, so many legendary moments.

              Bernard Hopkins against Taylor and Calzaghe. He fought with no sense of urgency in both fights. Especially in the last round against Calzaghe when he hadn't yet sealed a victory.

              Taylor and Calzaghe are two of my least favorite fighters.

                Lewis Rahman 1, showboating and not taking the fight seriously
                Hamed Barrera, spent more time grooming his hair than training

                    Kovavlev turning his back on Ward after threatening his career and not listening to the man that was essential to where he's at today!

                    Floyd hiring Bayless to help keep Maidana off him in the second fight!

                    Pacquiao taking the Jeff Horn fight.........in ***ing Australia!!

                    Crawford not realizing yet that Bob is putting Lemonchenko first over him!

                    Lemonchenko clowning a midget who had less than 3 weeks to train

                    Andrade's horrible career decision making!

                      Pac fighting Bradley a third time, JMM a 4th time and taking the fight with Algieri and Horn.

                      Tyson biting Holyfield's ear.

                      Roy Jones Jr. waiting too late in his career to fight rematch with Hopkins (though BHOP did price himself out during earlier negotiations) and Calzaghe. Also never understood why he didn't make a stop at CW to scalp a title in another weight class enroute to HW.

                      Erik Morales throwing water on Barrera's father after one of their fights. He went over to shake Erik's hand after he lost and he threw water in his face. Classless.

                      Oscar getting on his roller skates vs. Tito. He had that fight won. He also went through a half dozen trainers every time he lost.

                      Pazienza being disrespectful towards Duran. He caught him at the end of his career, way past his prime, at least be humble in victory.
