PBF and Larry Merchant after fight interview

[cold]

Floyd must not try to censure Larry. Be nice like Hopkins was because everyone likes Larry.

[j/one]

Larry had a point, despite how brilliant Floyd looked, when the crowd boo's and leaves a boxing match like it's a 7th inning blow out baseball game it's clearly a problem. If Larry didn't mention it HBO would have looked like FOX during the World Series, ignoring a true fact so the network doesn't lose face for putting this on P-P-V...just because Floyd or some fans didn't like the comment doesn't make it any less true, people did leave and were upset that a guy with this much skill wouldn't open up and try to K.O. a guy he was beating at will. Larry did the right thing...he even said while Floyd was going nuts what everyone wants to say "We just want you to take a meaningful fight" I think everyone deep down knows he will destroy Margarito and probably make him look worse than he did Baldy beacuse of all the things that have been said...so why not just take the fight? Or Fight Sugar Shane or DLH...any one of those fights could help him prove his skeptics wrong and would give him more of a reason to be arrogant...So Larry was 100% right for what he did, it's what he does and what should be expected.

Until he fights Paul Williams; Floyd has not conquered the Welterweight division. I think Paul Williams can beat him.

Antonio Margarito I am not sure if he can beat Mayweather.

Paul Williams hasnt even conquered anything or anyone worth conquering to warrant any pull in the division at all, other than of course..being margaritos mandatory.

I know but look at how Paul Wins, his height and reach.

Paul has the same 24 KO's in 34 fights as Mayweather does in 37.
(So far for Paul he has beat lesser competition)

Why not fight Mayweather ?
Only because Mayweather may not take the fight.

[Derranged]

The fight did not start to get boring until Floyd hurt his hand. I think Floyd was breaking him down, and eventually would've tried to stop him late.

I think Floyd overeacted a bit.

Why are you even making this comparison, lesser competition is an understatement, i remember when phillip ndou had what..28 kos against bums? Paul Williams isnt that good to me, and unless he beats margarito, i dont really care, becausei can remember a time on this board when the vivian harris bandwagon was pretty big...

[ELPacman]

Just remember, it's Larry Merchant's job to annoy and ask tough questions following a fight. He's paid to do that. Also I'm pretty sure fighter sign a contract with HBO that includes they will be interviewed following the fight immediately while on-air. Nearly every fighter accepts this and few leave the arena whether they are beat to **** or angry. It's all part of contracts and jobs, no hate should be given really on either part.

[-EX-]

Paul Williams needs to beat better competition before trying to get a fight with Floyd Mayweather.

[diavoli]

Williams is not yet worthy of a fight vs. mayweather.

Williams vs. Judah/Margarito should be a good one
