Basically everyone's angry because what they expected to happen happened and what they wanted to happen didn't. That just goes to show how good Mayweather is.PairPlusRoyalFlush said:Pathetic fight...mayweather ran and held all night, pac refused to sell out and go for the ko...not a good night for boxing. Exactly like the DLH/MW fight...fool me twice :/
I was comparing floyd vs tyson mental toughness not weightclass.MidnightCity said:I'm sick of people talking shlt about boxing. Yea it's far from perfect on the business and political aspect but the sport itself is like nothing else.
I don't deny mma is more brutal or hardcore but if anything it's safer. You get put to sleep or knocked out by a fluke shot which yes it's always dangerous but the fights end fast by comparison .
I want to see all the peoe who think boxing is a joke put some gloves and headgear on and try to last 3 active rounds. I guarantee you most ppl will punch themselves out in the first half of the first round and then burn nervous energy and tire out real quick after they start getting tagged.
Also ppl seem to think gloves are for padding to protect your opponent. They're actually more to protect your own hands. We can't throw kicks do arm bars, or spinning hammer fists but get in the ring with a boxer and try to keep up. I'll bet my life you wont. There's a reason they say that you can put a boxer in any sport and he'll excel. Boxing is just too physically, mentally and emotionally demanding of a man. It's hyper masculine if u ask me.
Also u can't compare heavyweight fights to welterweights. Not all Boxers are out to slug it out. There's many types of fighters and any 2 styles will decide what the fight will look like.
Go look up willie pep and Pernell Whitaker and then compare them to guys like roberto duran and Sugar Ray Robinson and then compare those guys to triple g and Julio Cesar Chavez all different styles that would make their fights all look different
As for floyd...... He will be remembered as "the best ever" to his admirers but to me he will be an elite fighter who coulda been one of the real greats if he actually fought all his biggest names in their primes (and his) and not only under his terms.
No. Manny just doesn't know how to cut off a ring. Pacquaio lost his "killer instinct" since he's been highly suspect due to his countless ridiculous excuses to not take a teaspoon of blood with Mayweather to prove they were both fighting clean.Infern0 said:This fight should have happened 5 years ago. Pacquiao lost his killer instinct a while ago. The Pacquiao who gave cotto a deformed face would have made it more interesting. Neither of these fighters is what they were tbh.
Floyd is having one last fight, hopefully it's against Keith Thurman or Erislandy Lara, those are very challenging fights for different reasons. I belive he may fight khan in England though, he has a large fan base there and that fight would sell 90,000 tickets at wembley
Ran and held while throwing and landing more than the 100 punches a round volume puncher Pacquaio. You're just pissed off that what you expected to happen happened and what you wanted to happen didn't.PairPlusRoyalFlush said:Sorry you are nothing more than an average johnny come lately ballwasher for FMM...i said he ran and held because he...ran and held lol.
If you want to talk, talk to your friends. If you want a girl to like you, listen to her, ask questions, and act like you are on the edge of your seat.

Fatal Jay said:lol I TOLD you Floyd was going to win, why is everyone shocked? People love to hate him but when he is retired and old people will regard him as one of the goats of boxing.
Floyd played you all with his ****y attitude, he is a brilliant businessman and the average non boxing watcher fell for it.
Cudos to the richest man in sports.
PairPlusRoyalFlush said:No, you are a casual fan, your bias and lack of knowledge is obvious to everyone here. Pac had rtcuff surgery lmao...Floyd close to all time lows in punches thrown Himself
PairPlusRoyalFlush said:^ in my many years of posting on boxingscene I have seen this copy/paste 1000x...nuthugger will nuthug nothing new
It is simply added facts. I cannot help what professionals in the sport say about the dude. If it doesn't fit with your agenda that's too bad. Does one need t ohear from experts that Pac is volume puncher? Does one need to hear from experts that Pac was held to his lowest output of his career or that Mayweather landed and threw more punches? So if someone says something and experts say it too it's just because experts said it. LMAO.MidnightCity said:You really are just a flomo tho. Regurgitating points made by people who make a living off following boxing doesn't make you a bigger fan than anyone here. I remember watching my dad and his friends fill our tiny apartment to watch JCC fight hector macho Camacho when I was about 5 years old.
Floyd never faced a prime mosley or dlh and now a prime pac whether pac was juicing or not is irrelevant. DLH is one of the cleanest fighters in the sport but he waited for his decline to face him.
And MW vs ggg? Lol you are utterly cluelesd. Ggg currently has the best shot at beating FMW and if u don't believe me u can ask expert analysts. And I'm not talking about YouTube analysts I'm talking about max kellermen Roy jones etc.
There is no way in hell we will ever see ggg cs Mw. MW will never face ggg. But ggg will sign that contract and agree to Mw terms in a heartbeat. I will apologize to you formally of that fight ever happens. In actuality mw is more likely to take khan on. Even Thurman is too dangerous. He's highly versatile and very intelligent. And he can bang. Khan has hand speed and that's about it. His suspect chin has been exposed by Garcia among others.
You have a long way to go toll you can properly talk boxing naughty ninja
