    He emphatically stated that, then had his tail between his legs attempting to embarrasingly explain all the hurt away! :rofl:rofl:rofl

    Unlike alot of *******s, Popkins has some semblence of knowleadge on other fighters, but his denial of Marquez' schoolings of Pacquiao bring his whole house down to a pile of termited rotten scraps!

    Yes, from memory I am pretty sure I gave Bradley round 3. I don't have my book with me, but I'm quite sure I did give him round 3.

    No troll, just my honest opinion. Of course, you're welcome to not share it.

    Pacquiao's overall technique in his punching has declined a bit, he's more sloppy these days, and his ferocity hasn't been there to the extent that it used to be since the Margarito fight. He's still an amazing fighter though. Floyd has also lost a step on his speed of hand and foot, and showed a bit less sharpness in his last few fights than he used to have. Understandable from both fighters, since both are aging and have had many fights, especially Pacquiao.

    So you agree with the judges in the Bradley fight.

    Aw **** off. Just coz your butt hurt that Amir Khan's turned out to be a pile of **** and he's the only Brithish fighter you like because he's a **** like yourself. Your getting put on ignore like Ilesey now.

    and yes btw Clottey was putting on about 20 lbs after every weigh in for every fight, he only put on about 8lbs vs. Pacquiao and there were parts of the contract which were undisclosed. A lot of people have said the same.

    wow. tszyu and pac are nothing alike:oops: compare kostya's biggest wins against pac's. the biggest name tsyzu defeated was zab judah (who most everyone in esb rates as a front runner type of fighter who will never be known as an all time great due to his mental weakness during fights), sharmba mitchell??? jesse james leija???? now pac's resume regardless of the circumstances includes the likes of morales, barrera, marquez, de la hoya, hatton, cotto, mosley, tier 2 opponents include bradley, clottey, margarito. and regarding you saying all you waited for was for pac to lose since it was only a matter of time???-pac never lost to bradley. 90 percent of boxing and non-boxing fans know this......:hi:

    His decline is obvious. His speed isnt there any more, explosiveness, intensity, its not there. He was even gassin out later in the fight, when have you seen that happen before. 2-3 years ago Bradley wouldnt have made it to the 6th round. Its not just a style thing, pacquaio has dominated guys who are way better then Bradley, and better boxers too.

    Pacquiao has a lot more wear and tear then mayweather. He's been in a lot of wars, and taken more punches. He's also got a more active / physical style, and age is going to naturally hit him harder.


    This is just stupid.


    This is also stupid. Your post is full of stupid crap that doesn't even make this worth taking seriously.

    I can agree with that. What I don't agree with is all the rubbish that he's shot etc. He still has a lot left, he's just been against awkward guys lately, although he is taking time off between rounds and letting people off the hook now.

    Not a matter of time for him to lose, a matter of time before his weaknesses were exposed, AGAIN, in both cases.

    :rofl:rofl

    You mad, brother?

    Show me proof -- articles, statements from Clottey, etc -- that Clottey was forced under a rehydration clause.

    You can't just go spreading false **** like that because people on forums have "said the same". You're making youself look like a bigger idiot than you already are.

    And really, don't go putting me on ignore just because I keep pulling you up on the stupid **** you come out with. That's just cowardly.

    Lol Hatton was AWFUL against southpaws. Barely beat Collazo and nearly got KO'd by MaGee. Please also go find me 1 decent southpaw DLH beat.

    I agree with the wear and tear of Pacquiao's style but go watch how much Mayweather relies on his reactions. Once he loses them, which he is starting to, he's not the same fighter.

    What some people who have never been in a boxing ring don't understand is that naturally left handed fighters who stand orthodox are often very poor against south paws, mainly because they have no back hand. I believe DLH and Cotto are naturally left handed and Hatton was just kept away from southpaws by ****** ever since the MaGee scare.

    Also, all this rubbish that Marquez was 'cheating coz he was stepping on Pacquiao's foot' which a lot of *******s came out with is rubbish as that's just something that happens a lot with orthadox vs. southpaws.
