[shoeking2101]

Boxing enthusiast get so upset at the casual boxing fans whenever a mayweather fight comes around.

I find it hilarious

 

[goldmember]

Let's be real. Floyd will win via UD. I'll be really surprised if Pac knocks him out.

and i really want PAc to win.

 

[dmxfury]

Time to kill it

 

[T0INE]

Damn, put the street sweeper on this thread.

I'll take the under and parlay that with a Mayweather stoppage Round 8

I don't think saying no to random blood testing automatically means you're hiding something.

How yall feel about the NSA being able to just listen to everything you saying. Yeah I got nothing to hide but it's the principle. Random blood tests weren't required to fight someone. Some people wouldn't stoop so low as to follow another fighters stipulations when there are already measures to counter cheaters. It's a matter of pride and principle.

That said, Manny was juicing back then

When will this **** end already. Eveb after they fight dudes gona talk about the same thing.

It comes with the territory just like every other major event. That salt will be spread after the fight ends.

 

[jhova718]

I love this thread already

 

[benzilla427]

Filthy casual checking in for the lulz.

 

[you go boy]

the only way i see mayweather winning is if he clinches and runs the whole damn fight

if you consider floyd boxing = running then he will do just that... hes a defensive fighter first and will not take risks and will go the safe route... this is why he dont throw combinations anymore just 1-2 punches get out the way, jab to the stomach/face then clinch... you will see this the whole fight... people say floyd is boring but hey he wins all the time

 

[SORIANOTRON]

In essence.....

fights are hard to compare/analyze/predict anyway

what helps me gain some kind of insight is trying to imagine both fighters....fighting without a time limit or point system....i do this for MMA all the time

in this case, with no points or rounds...I think manny would eventually catch floyd and KO him....

I know that means nothing in the ring and for this fight in particularly, but I believe it to be the truth with said parameters.

Also look at each fighters strategy for the fight....

floyd: move and avoid getting hit, counter.

manny: press, punches in bunches, watch for the counter.

I dont know who's going to win, no one does.

But floyd has his work cut out for him, thats for sure.

Press Conference tomorrow

hopefully, some good ******* happens

Yeah but I don't remember a recent fight where an opponent clinches a lot on to Manny, he moves too much in the ring making it difficult for someone to perform continuos clinching. I don't think Floyd will go that route......

I remember the 2nd fight, there was a point Bradley literally had to grab Manny's head and bought himself into him.

Anybody have that scene? I was laughing, Bradley knew what was up!

EDIT: Found it! 44:40

Manny on first take was pure comedy. Manny just stated that he was more worried coming into the fight with Cotto/DLH......The confidence 

. He has said various times that Mayweather is an easy fight. Both fighters bringing their A Game May 2nd 

 They should give chance to SR and freddie to trash talk a bit tonight at the press conference

 

[cashbanks]

Manny gonna get smoked

[doublemesh96]

Ninong is such a good guy. Bless his heart. Don't hurt him too bad Floyd

 

[Maximus Meridius]

Dude really said he was more worried about Oscar than he his about Floyd


between this and the trash Freddie been talking

 

[krazyrodzilla]

Dude really said he was more worried about Oscar than he his about Floyd


between this and the trash Freddie been talking

He said he as more worried about OSCAR, COTTO and MARGARITO!

 

[SoleByThePound]

He said he as more worried about OSCAR, COTTO and MARGARITO!

He was probably more worried because of their knockout power. Manny most likely doesn't think Floyd could put him to sleep.
