    It wasn't action packed but I don't know how you can call watching an ATG put on a defensive & offensive clinic 'boring' have a word with yourselves.

    :lol: Yeah, I know some might find it to be a reference to the young 19th century poet Arthur Rimbaud and his masterpiece of Symbolist poetry, but jokes on them, right? :lol::lol:

    No Rigondeaux vs Donaire is boxing at its best, Mayweather vs Guerrero was Mayweather vs Baldomir 2. Mayweather looked one dimensional and he literally ran at times against an ordinary opponent. Rigondeaux sets shots up with feints and timing while staying in range, Mayweather literally runs and potshots. There's a massive difference, and there's a massive difference between Donaire and RG.

    Complaining that Mayweather won every round easily is like going to Antarctica and complaining thats its cold.

    It was his 44th fight ffs, I have no idea what your expectations were.

    You are selling Guerrero short comparing him to Pianeta.

    Seeing RJJ dominate Toney is worth complimenting. Seeing a guy punch a cherry pick for 12 rounds is just boring ... or a Klitschko fight.

    Your going to say its boring no matter what .. If fights and beats Carnello or Sergeo You will still says he's boring . Face it the only reason you want floyd to fight Saul or Martinez is because they inter the ring at 175 and floyd pretty much stays at 148 , 150 at best. So its pretty sad that you guys think that the only way a fighter has a chance against floyd is if they out weigh him by 30 pounds. :-(

    He's fighting an average opponent, that's the time to showcase your skills. I love pure boxing (Rigondeaux, Whitaker etc.) but what Mayweather does is potshot and run. I can understand Jones doing it vs Ruiz but Mayweather has no excuse for doing it against a fighter like RG who isn't even a puncher at lighter weights, a fighter with limited skills who never had a chance in the fight.
