    You're a fool. What does fat oscar fighting at middleweight for 2 fights 10 years later have to do with this? :roll:
    Oscar fought in a class a WHOPPING 5lbs heavier than Genaro's and you're the moron who wants to say Oscar was alot bigger? Yet Genaro was actually 1 inch taller than oscar! Don't just log off, Shoot yourself *****.

    Algeri is the only guy I heard saying how great Pac's adjustment game is.. I may be wrong though.. We have seen in all of Floyd's fights him being extremely hardtohit.. We don't see Pac making crazy adjustments like Algeri says..

    Yeah true.. I was going off of highlights and what people were saying.. I did catch the end of the Provo fight though..

    This may be true.. Did Maidana really hit Floyd with legal punches though? It looked to me like he was just throwing them everywhere.. Maidana used his size to hold Floyd on the ropes and just threw punches no matter where they landed and had no fear of getting points deducted.. The fight before that though, Canelo, he seemed better than ever.. So Maidana don't really paint the whole picture...

    I was thinking about when he was hitting Oscar while he was throwing and made his knees buckle.. He was also hitting Maidana while he was on the ropes with clean punches.. I figured Pac would give way more room than that Erich will allow Floyd to see better.. This is the range where he does his pull counter and slip the most punches.. That's why I said he could get hit with them too Erich was cut off..

    There's a lot of "no one have ever" in this fight.. No one has ever clinched Pac willingly effectively.. No one has ever knocked Floyd on his butt.. No one has ever made Pac run.. No one has ever beat Floyd at all.. One of those have to change to no one but....

    The reason why I didn't say Khawhi, I was thinking him though, is because he is the future.. He will be a star and maybe superstar if he keeps improving.. Algeri will not be.. He might never be on ppv again.. Matt Barnes will never be a star like Algeri.. There's no one who posses all the skills of LeBron and Floyd, although Paul George is close.. Let's hope he gets back strong maybe sometime this year...

    Basketball is my favorite sport too.. I thought not many people get watches because I reference it all the time and no one seems to know what I'm talking about :lol:...

    It was part of the plan - win titles in 6 divisions, starting at 130. Also being 1 inch taller means nothing.

    Lol!!

    Look up Ronnie Austion. You let me know if you think this kid would be a great sparring partner for Manny. Tbh, I've never seen someone resemble Floyd as closely as him. I'm fangirling over this kid right now.

    He was knocked down at welterweight too lol its called improving your skills and being more aware of incoming shots. He got nailed with some big shots he never saw, same as at welter, thats why he went down, just happened less as he got better.

    :lol::rofl:lol:

    Let me get this straight. You're trying to tell me that Hernandez who never fought higher than 135 and he only fought at 135 once and Oscar who fought as high as 160, multiple times at 154 and multiple times at 147 yet Hernandez was the bigger man??? I mean you can't make this type of **** up. I'm done.:patsch

    I'm #1 in my country and ranked top 100 in world in fight night Champion :D
    Realistically, probably top 25. Awesome game though, 4 years old and still 1500-2000 people fighting online at any given time.

    Yeah sure he paid em off.:nut You irrational PBF haters are hilarious. Why didn't Oscar pay them off to then? He wasn't even ranked.

    I know I posted this in the express thread already, so since it will drown in pointless posts, I'll post it here too.

    Finding someone to replicate Floyd and Pacquiao is next to impossible, but I think this kid may be the closest to it being possible.

    I'm seriously in awe right now. I haven't heard of him, but it was mentioned to Pacquiao's team as a possible sparring partner. I didn't think finding a perfect sparring partner for either would be possible, but I'm pretty sure they just found him.
    Adrien Broner says he is the next Floyd Mayweather.

    He could take a better punch at 147 then when he was weak and drained at 130.

    You're drawing parallels that lack solid foundation.

    What you're saying is akin to saying Marquez and Floyd are both counter-punchers. While it is true they both are counter-punchers, their respective approaches couldn't be any more different, which makes the original statement, while true, meaningless in the context it is so often used with regards to Pacquiao.

    You're doing the same sort of thing here.

    While it might be true that a few "pieces" of Algieri's style "resemble" "some" of Floyd's style, that hardly endorses the context of what you're clearly trying to insinuate.

    Wow! He definitely been studying Floyd for a long time..lol Looks just like him in there.. If he was a little more experienced he would be almost perfect for any Floyd opponent.. Doubt he'll be down with it though..:lol: Can't wait to see more of him in the future.. He might be great if he keeps at it for real...

    I know. My friend texted me saying he's a potential sparring partner for Pacquiao, and I really didn't expect anything. But when I looked him up, my jaw dropped open. The parrying with the jab, movement...it was insane. This kid is only 20!!!! It got me a little excited for the next generation of boxers. He was seriously good. You know how Kobe studied Jordan so much that he is now like a shadow of Jordan in the way he moves, shoots, and his etiquette on the court? I felt Ronnie is that way with Mayweather. You can tell he wants to fight JUST like him, and he did a pretty d**** good job.
