    Marquez is maybe tired of seeing his ko of pacquiao being always use by Floyd and his followers. Their idol should man up and fight Pacquiao.

    The reason being that Pacquiao doesn't need to be persuaded to man up.

    Fair enough.

    :good

    Not sure I agree here. He was decent, but he never really had any big wins at heavy prior to facing Wlad. And I thought he looked mediocre against Valuev.

    No, this is before you watched boxing.

    You didn't know the sport existed. You still don't watch boxing. You watch Mayweather and you try to prevent the best fights from happening.

    You're pathetic.

    Get off this website.

    Haye is a great athlete. He has phenomenal speed and power, plus his defense proved to be exceptional against Wlad which is saying a lot.

    However, he was hesitant to fight aggressively.

    In his fight against Chisora though, you could tell that he worked on that style of fighting because for some moments during the fight it looked like I was watching Marciano as Haye rolled and ducked Chisora's punches and responded with his own bombs.

    Haye was undersized, but I think he's a great opponent. He didn't look impressive against Valuev, but he didn't take any punishment either. It was a defensive shut out, albeit boring.

    So, you admit that you don't want the fight.

    Just say it.

    Say you don't want the fight. Say it.

    Mayweather-Canelo 2.1 million buys.

    Now can everyone STFU about PPV buys and actually talk about boxing?

    I don't agree that it was a shutout either (I scored it a draw), but I do agree it was boring.

    Anyway, I'm with you in that Haye was a great athlete and he was undersized. But I still am not overly impressed with his heavyweight ledger. The Chisora win was good, but there's another guy who always (in my view at least) received far more credit than he ever truly deserved.

    One fighter will be on PEDS while the other will have been sick and broke some bone in their body which caused the loss.

    One would be over hyped ducker while the other damaged goods that was already KO'd by a lightweight.

    Im sure the site will be down for a few days from all of the traffic

    nothing baffles me on here anymore....i just chalk guys like him up to no nothing noobs or just wlad haters. his revelation of why wlad must have been ducking haye was "the escalator incident" :rofl
    after that encounter, Haye got a good look what a real heavyweight looks like and he changed his tune :good

    As a Manny fan I believe even the current FMJ beats prime 2009 Manny but styles make fights and Manny's style is perfect for FMJ.

    Saying that I find it hilarious that all FMJ has done is duck him every given chance, this would have been such an easy fight and put him in as the best fighter of the past 20 or so years yet despite this he has chosen to run away.

    Manny's legacy for that reason regardless of his losses will be worth much more since he didn't duck anyone.

    FMJ Greatest Ducker Of Recent Times?

    Tbh that is true. Both sides have fans that use ppv numbers/net worth to justify their fighter is better, but irregardless of who uses it, the premise is completely absurd.

    I do have to agree with the op though, there are several die hard Floyd fans in this forum albeit saying that Floyd would easily beat Manny would rather see him face someone else. After reading several of their posts I would say they are fairly intelligent and have valid points as to why Floyd would beat Manny which makes me question why they would rather Floyd fight someone else because the only fighter close to Floyds level is Manny. Why insist on a rematch with Canelo or Cotto or someone else when the arguably best/2nd best pfp fighter is willing and able to make the fight? You would think they would want the fight as much as or even more than the Pac fans since it would ultimately cement Floyds claim as the best of his generation and give him bargaining power as the greatest of all time should he beat Pac.
