If a fighter can not deal with movement is it not their own fault?

    Why blame the fighter who is moving and landing?

    Obviously...

    The agenda and personal preference of posters makes this an easy target when their man is outboxed, however.

    I know, and the stupidity is frightening, and some of them try and wax eloquent with a stupid ass breakdown as to why a man should stand still and let another man hit him in the face.:lol:

    It is their own fault. That being said, there is a certain entertainment value quotient that most fans expect and taking Floyd vs Pacquiao as the example, Floyd was terrible by even his own safety-first standards and was somewhat lucky he got the decision. After doing his usual talk about looking for the knockout, Floyd didn't even try, grabbed a lot early on taking advantage of a favorable ref in Bayless, didn't throw anything with bad intentions, was economical even by his standards, and played keepaway the whole fight. All that with Pacquiao giving a poor effort of his own where all Floyd had to do was throw like 10 more half-decent punches a round to make the fight a little more palatable. Instead, he was the primary contributer to a huge stinker when boxing could have really stepped up in the eyes of the general public. DLH by comparison "lit up" Trinidad in their terrible fight, but didn't get the nod like Floyd has gotten consistently in these types of fights.

    No agenda there. Pac was the one saying he was going to KO Floyd for all the poor battered women in the world. Instead Pac is filing domestic violence charges against Floyd for Manny being treated like a b!otch :rofl:rofl

    Why do you feel the need to defend that style?

    The greatest fighters of all time used AGGRESSIVE DEFENSE.

    Not DEFENSIVE DEFENSE.

    Aggressive defense entails taking risks. It entails showing the other mother ****er that you're the man.

    At the end of the day, it's about who's the top dog.

    If a Chiwawa runs away from a PITBULL, wh's the top dog?????

    I saw the fight live on PPV, my friends are pro-pacquiao, and I enjoyed seeing sadness in their eye while pacquiao was getting dismantled by Floyd.

    I might be biased as I use also use a defensive boxing style, but that was a clear win for Mayweather even if you hate him, weren't one of those #noexcuse guys ? :/

    I didn't have to watch the fight in slow motion.

    My eyes function properly.

    The reason people instructed imbeciles such as yourself to watch it in slow motion is because apparently, your brain is not fast enough to pick things up in real time.

    Slow motion only emphasizes and makes it impossible for a person to doubt a real outcome.

    And reality is Floyd didn't land as many punches.

    It's on film.

    You can say he "won," but in reality it was a gift. If you feel comfortable with lying to yourself, then that's on you.

    But that win was not definitive, so everyone who saw the truth, it will leave a bad taste in their mouth.

    Floyd did not deserve that win.
