Comments Thread For: Farhood: Mayweather Struggles With Spence, Crawford, Thurman

[filup79]

Mayweather is shot. He would lose to all 3. Thurman would have beat him when he was his mandatory and thats the weak link of the 3. Spence and Crawford are even better and both knock out Mayweather. We don't even know how this washed up Mayweather would deal with Jeff Horn. Lets face it Mayweather is completely done and no longer relevant in the boxing game. He lost all credibility getting dominated for 3 rounds by some "MMA guy"

NO way Thurman beats Floyd back then, he barely beat average fighters like Collazo and Guerrero. He never dominated either and was bent over by a body shot by Collazo and Guerrero was making him back pedal at the end of the fight.

How can you call yourself a boxing fan with your obvious support of the BS Mayweather pulled? You, I and everyone else knows he would have had hell pulling this off against the top fighters in the division. You may question Marciano's opponents, but to support someone who calls himself TBE & pulls this shit is shameful.

Define support? Did I watch it, yes. Did I consider it a real fight, no.

No question this was a cash grab. No question any of the top ww would have been tougher than Conor.

We do not disagree on anything other than you saying 49-0 was a genuine boxing record. It isn't and neither is 50-0.

As for shameful-this was the biggest event in sports this year other than the Super Bowl and that was with 3 million plus illegal streams.

hey, if this is what people want to see that is their choice.

He called him out first in Dec 2014. He already had the Manny fight planned for May 2015. He called him out again in July 2015 after he KO'd Collazzo. less than a month later Floyd announced the Berto fight.

Please stop over exaggerating and lying as part of your petty agenda to bring Floyd down to Manny's level out of spite and anger.

Thurman's words:

“Everybody knows the day I beat Diego Chaves, I became the WBA interim world titlist, which made me the No. 1 contender for whomever was the WBA titlist,” Thurman said. “[It] went from Paulie Malignaggi to Adrien Broner to Marcos Maidana to Floyd Mayweather. Four to six months go by and they anoint him to super and give me the regular so that he never had to hear the words, ‘Are you going to fight your mandatory contender, Keith ‘One Time’ Thurman?’”

Bwahahahaha!!! None of them were prime elites. None of them have the skill set of Crawford or Thurman, and Spence would peel Floyd's face off. That said, Maidana was robbed in their first fight.

Thurman couldn't dominate Guerrero or Collazo, I have yet to see Thurman dominate anyone that is good fighter. Only Crawford could possibly match Floyd in skill. Spence would get out boxed and I doubt any of the 3 would land a clean punch on Floyd. None of those 3 have one punch KO power.

Keep in mind that Thurmans biggest win back then was against a shot Guerrero who had him back pedaling at the end of the fight. Then went on to fight Collazo who bent him over with a body shot and got the win becasue Collazo had blurry vision. Floyd would have ruined Thurman back then, he's lucky he didn't fight FLoyd and got schooled. To date Thurman is an after thought who gets injured and barely fights.

I think Thurman is a much tougher fight than berto and I think it wouldn't have been as easy to go 50-0. Maybe Floyd wins comfortably but my gut tells me he gets a ODH type win or even a close maidana type win.

Some of these dudes are just mad Floyd pulled this off because it kills their whole ******ed narrative that he was a boring fighter that no one watched. Floyd being successful drives some posters crazy.

[djtmal]

I see no reason why decent posters should get duped into dealing with clowns like you guys that are more than willing to over exaggerate and lie out of spite and anger. So yeah, I gave him a heads up as to what to expect.

Your posts since have proven me absolutely correct.

Man, you really need to deal with your issues. It was a fight, the guy you liked lost. Here you are still trying to win that fight.

Would be funny if it wasn't so sad, Carry on dude. Make Manny great again!

nobody's doing nothing that you suggest but have a difference of opinion, that you can't get with

Yeah Guerrero had him running for his life. Guerrero completely went balls to the wall after getting dropped. Guerrero was never the same after that fight though. I had the feeling Thurman was going to be the guy to beat Mayweather but Floyd decided to fight the likes of Berto and Mcgregor instead. Thurman punches with good power going backwards and would have given that Floyd a difficult fight. Obviously we all know this shot to hell afterthought version of Mayweather that went life and death with an MMA guy doesn't stand a chance against ol run time anymore.

Thurman's words:

Ok, that doesn't change or negate anything I wrote.

differing opinions are fine, lies and omissions are not. Its how you operate daily and I see no reason why a decent poster should be duped into the BS of clowns like you and western.

I understand that Marciano beat some of the greats like Louis, Charles, Walcott and especially Moore when they were way past prime. I also understand that many others were listed as bums. But at least they were listed as boxers, to my knowledge.

Mayweather vs McGregor may have been huge in terms of entertainment & revenue, but it was a cold slap in the face of boxing and true fans. This was an exhibition at best and should not have been promoted as a sanctioned boxing match. I didn't want to watch it, but my buddy insisted it would be great and thought McGregor had a chance. So, why not? I 'cued some ribs and shrimp, got nice and checked it out. My boy dropped the yard for it though, lol.
