    Seriously, for a guy claiming to be TBE, its pretty embarassing. And dont say Victor Ortiz.

    He doesn't need to KO anyone as long as dumb people keep giving him their $. I would duck and dodge and run all day too. Health come first.

    Honestly, I think he's a great fighter, best of this generation. But if you're gonna act like you're the best ever, you have to back it up. He said he was going to go for a knock out, HE COULDNT. He said this time it would be easy, IT WASNT. To me, easy is what RJJ was doing to his opponents.

    He's in his 4th of the 5 weight classes he's been in and he's got a metabolism like a 7 year old girl. If anything the fact that he has no power at these weights is a testament to what he's been able to do with little to no pop. I don't know why you ******s act like he's 24 years old. He's an old head with two fights left. Get a grip on reality and loosen your grip on the mans dick.

    What do Knockouts have to do with it? At 37 how many prime fighters do you expect to see him KO?

    That people in the argument for TBE could stop fights. Ali stopped Foreman way past his day, Leonard stopped just about everyone he had to before he aged.

    May doesnt have that ability.

    Willie Pep is widely considered one of the top 5 fighters of all time. He had a KO% that hovered around 20-25% as a longstanding 126 LB fighter.

    This is boxing, not "Ring Knockouts." Floyd is a boxer who had a good amount of power from 130-140 lbs (carried around a 65% KO percentage,) but by the time he ventured up into his 4th and 5th weight classes, he isn't really able to KO guys anymore. He never had 1 punch KO power even in the lighter weights, rather he would knock his opponents out/TKO via accumulation of punches. So to think he would carry his power with him for so many divisions is irrational, especially since he's never been considered a power puncher in his career.

    In the last 10 years or so he probably could've gotten a few of the guys he fought out of there instead of going to a decision if he decided to throw more combinations and just let his hands go a little bit more. But these are naturally larger guys he fights at these weightclasses so he's a lot more judicious with his punch output. He really centers his style around safety first, and it's sensible for him.

    Void is afraid of Pac..........................Void fans should never complain about Vlad's clinching, all Void did was run, hold, and count on his personal referee to keep the fight on the outside.........................
