    Is Floyd Mayweather jr a dirty fighter who uses dirty tactics?

    How often does he use his elbows, forearms etc?

    Floyd and Bhop are called "crafty"... but it's BASICALLY the same thing. Not to the point of a DQ but still outside the rules. Floyd hides it really well and knows when he can get away with it. Other guys are more obvious about it.

    That was more than 2 years ago, Pacquiao is in a way better situation right now than Marquez.

    Pacquiao - WBO 147 Champion and defeated the top p4p, undefeated, in his prime Bradley.

    Sorry to hear that Marquez couldn't get that WBO 147 belt, he wanted to be the first Mexican to become a 5 division champion but failed.

    Move on Pacquiao is now Top 4 P4P. Not bad for someone who got KO'd more than 2 years ago. :deal

    I wouldn't be surprised if Alvarado defeats the 40 Years old Marquez and sends him into retirement.

    I guess it depends on what your definition of "dirty" is. Not the dirtiest boxer I've seen, not by a long shot. Certainly has his dirty tricks, but all the good ones do.

    I don't consider him a dirty fighter. Well, not any more dirty than many other great boxers, which is what I'm basing my opinion on.

    No Vegas ref would ever call Floyd on his fouls, just like every Vegas judge knows who they are supposed to give close rounds.

    MADONNA fans still butt hurt. Madonna will get a rematch and you all will complain Floyd is cherry picking.
