Comments Thread For: Ellerbe: Floyd's First Fight With Maidana Not As Close As Some Made It Out To Be

[JakeTheBoxer]

In Argentina it would be a clear win for Maidana.

Floyd schooled and embarrassed Pac and Canelo.

Why didn't Pac fight Canelo?

pac landed the better punches so how did he get schooled? that makes no sense. i suggest you watch the fight again. just go to round 3 and find me all the great shots floyd landed. i mean all the judges gave him the round so he must have schooled pac that round with his zero clean punches while pac had 6-7. weird how that works isnt it? not a school i want to go to where you just scribble a bunch on the paper and turn it in oh you get an A while someone who actually writes words on the lines gets an F. im sorry you got schooled! this other kid scribbled more than you. quality over quantity but you will never see that becasue you are fanboy over boxing.

you wont even admit that pac landed the better punches even though its right there on video. an honest fan and theres nothing wrong with being a fan would say yeah that wasnt floyds best fight, he struggled to land cleanly and didnt get much going but you went full hyperbolic with the schooling against all video evidence of such claims. pac outlanded floyd in clean power shots in at least 7 rounds so the very claim that he was schooled is absurd. go make a video of all floyds clean shots(emphasis on clean) in rounds 3,4 and 6 through 10. i will do the same for pac and lets see who landed the better punches shall we? and remember punches that hit pacs gloves or graze by his hair aren't really clean but if you want to embarrass yourself and include them since you dont have much to work with i understand. we all know the way to school someone is to hit their gloves and miss the target while getting your head rocked around

I don't need to watch the fight again as I've seen it enough times.

Floyd schooled Manny whether you like it or not. He outlanded a fighter who is known for having an unreal punch output.

and this says it all. he didn't outland him in clean punches though which is my whole point of watching it again, it was at least razor close with most of floyds being jabs and most of pacs being hard head snapping shots. that should matter... and i can see you are bringing in preconceived notions of how fighters fight into your judging which is a big no-no. you are supposed to judge fighter A vs fighter B and who did better in that fight, nothing else. if you bring in all that past crap you will get into comparative judging which you just did. oh manny didnt do this, he didnt do that, he usually does this, he usually does that. who landed the cleaner punches in round 3? manny. judges got it wrong. round 7? manny. judges got it wrong. etc...not well manny didnt throw as many as usual in round 3 i guess floyd won it. manny didnt throw as many as usual in round 7 i guess floyd won it. does that change the fact that manny landed the better punches in any way? oh he usually throws 60 punches a round and he only threw 30 so even thouh he landed 6 hard clean shots to floyds 2 floyd wins?

It was a close fight.

[Carpe Diem]

He smothered the **** out of Floyd. That’s the best way to fight Floyd. You can’t give him any space to get his punches off. You have to turn it into a wrestling match and hope the ref let’s you get away with it.

The second fight proves it as Floyd boxed his ears off.

Floyd schooled and outlanded Manny in one of his easiest victories.

I have no interest in any shit that you write.

Why didn't Pac fight Canelo?

Oh no, not this again, the Floyd fanboy who keeps asking same rhetorical question?

Because Pac s greater than floyd, often cited as top 3. Pac don't need to fight nelo!
Floyd s got to rematch nel o at 160 to get into top 15, Floyd could get into top 10 actually!
My friendly advice to floyd is wait until nel o comes off bad performance than pounce on the fight.? That's what Pac supposedly does isn't it, like thurman? It's that easy isn't it? Like winning titles in 8 divisions. Anyone can do it can't they?
