**** the PPV numbers, **** the Purse ammounts and record breaking excuses. Boxing will always be BOXING...a violent combat sport. Dont claim to be the best unless you are willing to fight the best. These ***** ass excuses are coming from someone who is willing to burn money in a club yet acts as if he is going to go broke overnight by fighting the "other" best. This bull**** is killing the sport and anyone supporting this **** is just as guilty.
Also, don't forget that even though according to you Pacquiao did his best work at lower weights, A LOT of people on THIS SITE were calling Pacquiao the worst #1 pound for pound fighter in recent memory, After Mayweather retired and before Pacquiao beat ODLH.
wtf....we've done this debate numerous times already. pac-dlh was considered a mismatch, a **** fight, a circus fight...pac was going to die with the jab alone. nobody is going to buy a fight like that. floyd-oscar was considered an even/50-50 fight.
this seems to be the odds but causal fans line of thinking was somewhere between floyd-oscar as an even fight while pac-oscar is a mismatch where pac own's people (congress) wanting to file a petition to stop matches like this one. casual fans buy most of the PPV.
people like the circus....i dont think anyone in their right mind thought mike was going to give lennox any problems either....but they watched
it didn't became 2-1 against pac until the last day and even lampley mentioned that most expert had their odds wider than 2-1. did you think pac had a chance??
