    yeah, if all he wants to do is survive. as soon as he opens up which he would definitely have to do as a result of a total inability to outbox pacquiao he'd get hit, alot.

    come on man, you've got nothing. I've watched that fight three times, top boxing pundits say it. pacquiao looked off and juanma looked great

    Judges influence people. The judge scorecards have more power than you think. Being told it was officially a close fight will have people mind ****ing themselves into thinking it was like that as they rewatch it.

    You expected wrong. There is nothing we can do for you about that.

    interesting point, that might be worth a thread to see what fights are actually wide but people have been mind****ed into believing they are close.

    Too clever to get KO'd by manny imo. I haven't seen manny fight many guys with a style like Tim.

    he's isnt that clever. He can slip decent , but he fights more like an aggressive mexican fighter. His punches are wild, he pulls his punches back, and he's not particurally fast either. I don't see him having any chance to beat Pac. But it's a better fight then a most of the other ones out there.

    Please go away, and don't come back until you've learned a few things about boxing.

    Judges or not Pac landed more, threw more, and was the aggressor. Pac won... In my eyes. Though my opinions, views, etc may not matter for the final verdict... Pac *Offically* won as well. And there is nothing I "can do for you about that." :good
    BTW: Are you one of those people who had Hopkins beating Calzaghe as well? Hopkins throw 10 punches, lands 5, cries and complains to the ref, does rough house tactics, but the dude won the fight fo sho by a landslide! LOL

    Easy fight, or vacation, he deserves one. He could fight Zab Judah, name fighter, who is always willing and offers a good tuneup for Mayweather's speed. Haters wouldn't like that too much, another Mayweather leftover they'll say.

    Doubt he will though he deserves one. Pac has been fighting top opposition since 2008.
