Maybe they will fight when Floyd becomes less scared of him. He should get somebody to try to help toughen him up.

my last word on the fight, just wanted to remind folks of what Floyd said at the 7:28 mark in vid below, I'd say leaving your guard down is a mistake, lol
Who does that dude's fade? Ouch

Floyd would beat pac imo
I'm afraid I would have to disagree, I think Manny has what it takes to sort him out. But more importantly I think that this debate is absolutely pointless until a contract is signed. And even then it is moot until put on their cool shoes and they step in the ring together. I want to see Manny in with Bradley and May in with Khan or Martinez.
time for Bernard to fuck off for good, fuckin embarassment to the sport.
time for dawson to stop fighting senior citizens and cheating on top of that
lol @ Dawson acting like he deserved that.
...and where the fuck did they find that ref? he shouldn't have a job tomorrow.
how anytime bernard can put a whipping on dude ass and then go do pushups in the corner in between rounds that should tell you something..i dont know bernard situation but i do think its time to hang it up..most cats that old and are fighting have bad financial situations like the king of headbutt evander holyfield or like tyson in his later yearsQuote:

The majority of the WBC's board members disagreed with the official call of Hopkins' WBC and RING title defense against Chad Dawson on Saturday in Los Angeles. Dawson won the fight by controversial second-round TKO after shoving Hopkins to the canvas where the 46-year-old champ injured his left shoulder and was deemed unfit to continue by referee Pat Russell.
Hopkins maintains that he was fouled by the young challenger and thus the bout should have been ruled a No Contest. Russell did not view Dawson's shove as foul, accidental or otherwise. Golden Boy Promotions filed a protest with the California State Athletic Commission which will review the fight and make a ruling at a Dec. 13 hearing.
THE RING magazine continues to recognize Hopkins as its champ pending that ruling.
speaking of older boxers
Sometimes its best to just hang up the boxing gloves and walk away, but clearly someone forget to mention that to former four-time champion Roy Jones Jr. Jones (54-8 40 KOs) is scheduled to square off against fellow cruiserweight Max Alexander (14-5-1 2 KOs) on December 10th. Here are some details per BoxingScene.com:
Jones attempts to end a three-fight skid as he performs in Atlanta for the first time in his legendary career. The Pensacola (FL) native has fought throughout the Southeast, but never in the Peachtree State.
His last ring appearance ended in disaster, landing on the wrong end of a highlight reel 10th round knockout at the hands of top cruiserweight contender Denis Lebedev this past May in Moscow. The surprisingly competitive bout took a terrible turn for the worst when Jones was nailed with an overhand right that left him frozen. Lebedev paused and turned towards referee Steve Smoger in hopes of stopping the fight, before landing one more right hand that put Jones down face first.
By the looks of Alexander’s record and knockout rate this fight should be nothing more than an exhibition for Jones Jr, one of the greatest pound for pound fighters of this generation. Alexander is winless in his last six bouts. I’m seriously hoping that is the case, because I would hate to see Roy end up like this again.
Which Prince Naz fight are you talking about?Quote:

it was a horrible night for boxing, for fans, fighters, and the sport itself...
boxing is walking dead... more of a spectacle than a sport.....
Boxing needs to change its business model if they want to stay relevant. My ideas are as follows: 1. Get rid of the WBC, WBA, IBF, WBO, IBO, etc. 2. Get rid of Top Rank, Golden Boy, etc. 3. Get rid of the extra weight divisions (Super, Jr.) and go back to the original weight divisions. 4. Get rid of Al Haymon, Gary Shaw, Bob Arum, Don King, etc. 5. Make PPV cheaper and have better undercard's. 6. Establish a commission/league to rule boxing (NHL, NBA, UFC, etc).
Boxing runs its business like a cassette walkman, UFC runs its business like an iPad. Boxing isn't a dead sport yet but a mismanaged one.
Nonito Donaire, niggas
No need to tarnish walkman's by that.Quote:

manny vs marquez
wonder who wins.....
FUCKING JOKE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the 2 biggest boxers in the world havent taken a fight they could LOSE in YEARS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
all the promotion... hype...
trying to make each fight seem competitive....
boxing SPIN sucks!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
give them every fight but the one they want!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i don't buy Mayweather or Pac fights anymore...boycott. bob arum will never match manny with floyd as long as he's able to make a killing matching him with other Top Rank fighters. the only way they'll fight each other is if they stop getting high PPV buys from other matches. i can't think of another sport/competition IN THE WORLD where the best simply won't face each other.
No way in hell Pacman won that fight. Boxing is turning into a fucking joke.
this..... i had it 7 rounds to 5 for marquez, if they would have called it a draw, cool but the other 2 judges were watching the wrong fight.Quote:

and the BIAS was ridiculous...
commentary was DISGUSTING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
MANNY takes a fight he cant lose on paper...
and takes a controversial decision....
he went off script last night!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BOB ARUM won that fight!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yeah, same here, and I gave Manny the benefit of the doubt on a few rounds.Quote:

poor max kellerman...
his face said it all....
HBO spin!!!!!!!!!!!!
"look how active manny is!"
*watches manny throw grazing combo only to get outclassed and countered clean with flush shots*

cotto vs margacheato 2 i hope cotto wraps his hands in plaster and kills toney in the ring!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
even boxing writers are on the take!!!!!!!!!!!
fat fuck no hands never went a round dan rafael says it was a JM W or a DRAW...
yet he had PAC ahead on his score card!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BAHBHBAHBAHWBHWBAHBAHBAHABAHBA
ARUM is a goon...
actively buying souls!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
the only way marquez couldve won is if he knocked pac out cold...
god forbid boxing has an UPSET!!!!!!!!!!!!
WACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
cotto's getting crushed, straight up. and i fuckin hate margarito...
nice foot stomping action on Marquez part... i think the match should have been a draw, but i agree the fight was boring and i think something is happening to PAC outside of boxing he didnt look like he normally does exciting and all that
thats what happens when a south paw fights an orthodox fighter, they but heads and step on feet.
