Would boxing be better if fighters starting cherry picking like Mayweather?

    Here we go again lol. Looks better on paper than in reality, but still pretty damn good.

    It’s interesting how other fighters have aging/ranked/belt holder opponents routinely trashed because they’re not the very best available opposition at the time.

          did you think floyd landed the better punches? really? did you think floyd didn't cheat with the tue? really?

          it was a crap fight but you would think since it made him so much money why not do it again right? according to him it was his easiest fight even though his own corner told him he was losing so that doesnt really add up. i dont want to see it because the same exact thing would happen and if you didnt see it the first time i dont know why you would the second.

            Floyd schooled Pac. It's as simple as that.

              yeah and everyone in boxing knew that narrative would make them a lot of money. you dont kill the golden goose. there was too much money that would never happen. they even tried the same thing with andre ward for christs sake and nobody even watched him. i think you forgot the first rule of boxing. boxing is a business.

                how do you school someone when they land the clean punches and you are landing grazing jabs and not much else? should we go through it round by round? you wont like what you find i guarantee you that. maybe you will still have floyd winning but a schooling? hardly

                      Floyd outworked, outpunched and schooled Pac, easily.
