i didn't order the mayweather ortiz fight but read up on it plenty

i think it was a cheapshot by floyd but i don't blame him. ortiz did something cheap and illegal and floyd retaliated with something cheap and legal.

but i heard floyd was lighting him up the whole time.

i lost hope for pac/mayweather. i dont' care to see either fight anyone although i am getting pac/marquez 3. they should both just retire since they won't fight eachother. i can see that they are both to blame, but i feel most of the blame goes to mayweather. if they both retire i bet mayweather goes broke before pacquiao though

How does pac get part of the blame?

How does pac get part of the blame?

i meant that i can see why some would blame pac also, and i'll accept that it's their right to their opinion

but personally i blame floyd more. i mean, i'm biased as i am a pacquiao fan but i'm trying to at least see the other side's argument.

they both can easily give in so the fight can take place, so in that sense, it's both their faults. but for me the bigger blame goes to mayweather

and mayweather looks more stupid for the contradicting statements he has made in regards to pacquiao

 

[krichardson]

For the past few years Mayweather has made it look very easy to look stupid...I still wouldn't place any blame on pac for their fight falling apart.He was not the scared one who made up excuses and accusations of steroid use...He even agreed to Mayweathers demands of being tested if I remember correctly.

 

[SumoNinja]

from what i read too, pacquiao had ended up agreeing to floyd's demands for the testing

Time for my semi annual boxing is dead rant



And....end of rant!

Hope Floyd loses. And almost an entire year with zero posts? We can all agree this thread was dead

 

[krichardson]

I think he will win but I got Canelo laying a good beating on him.

Alvarez is a great fighter, but he's not on that level yet. Mayweather will probably win a decision, but I would love to see him get blasted.

I think the fix is in.
1. Floyd has no rematch clause in his contract
2. Golden Boy has a handshake agreement and Date for Canelo's First defense at Texas Stadium vs. Sergio Martinez
3. Oscar is going to miss the fight because he had to enter rehab? So when the BS goes down he doesn't have to directly answer to the media.
4. This match up reminds me of the Oscar vs. Pernell Whitaker fight. Everyone said Oscar was to young to beat Sweet P and what happen that night was Oscar was given the fight and the pound for pound crown.

I think Floyd should cruise if he controls the pace and when they exchange but I think the fix is in.

lmao, hey man, when we're senile, cynical old farts in 40+ years we WILL revisit this. and I will laugh my ass off when boxing greats are still making millions and people still talking about the death of boxing
