Pacman Fans knows his Hyped Legacy is coming to an End

So... this has what to do with what you replied to? Are you agreeing, disagreeing. Sort of hard to tell what your point is.

 

over 40 years. Which is why I know Floyd is a phony. He is good but he never fought that guy who is going to put the pressure on him with a great jab and knock him out with the right. He never fought a Leonard or Hearns.. And he never would. I don't care what you post, I know what I saw and I know how Floyd set up his career. He is phony and a fraud and he thought being undefeated hid the fact he was not a warrior who would not fight anyone anytime like Pacman. And you know it also if you know boxing. Anyone here knows Pacman was more of a warrior and fought anyone anytime. If you know boxing you know it. Your gut feels it.. You don't need a video to tell you that. Always an excuse. HBO an excuse. Margo a cheater. Ortiz and Guerrero were probably all time greats in your mind. Mosley and Oscar were prime fighters. The Hatton fight? Floyd goes what 11 rounds and Manny gets him out cold in one?
Margo was a cheat so he couldn't fight him? Good one. Floyd handpicked everyone. He is a good fighter, but not a great in my mind. Something is missing. I went down the list of what I thought about Floyd's fights. Everyone ducked Floyd, yet Floyd did the ducking. 152 for Canelo? 2 pounds? He didn't have the confidence to beat a green Canelo then without an advantage? You know when posters don't know anything about boxing? Good , if that is what you think fine. You are in denial about Floyd. He is a boring handpicker who cares more about holding money in his hand and saying TME or whatever the initials are for that nonsense. I like guys like Hagler and Hearns who put boxing on the map.

 

so your smiling faces prove something? All those guys when Floyd fought them were not at their best. All of them. Floyd is a smoke and mirrors guy. And it is easy to do that with the downgrade in boxing today. Mikey Garcia and Broner have 4 titles when Hearns and Duran only got that later in their career after long careers.. Hopkins made a long career handpicking guys in this era. It is not that great now. All you young people who think boxing is great now, are in denial. I get excited for some fights, but even Wilder. He is inexperienced and yet he is top fighter now.. In the 1980s Holmes would have blitzed him I think.

 

Your hahaha and smiling faces doesn't prove anything. Boxing is at a weak point. Floyd fighting that Colin McGregor guy for what reason? You would have seen Hearns or Hagler fighting a guy like that? Are you kidding. They fought each other or other guys like Duran or Leonard. Floyd knows boxing is his oyster. He can use it to make millions and the younger people today who do not know anything about great eras or not handpicking or not catchweights believe everything he does. The believe catchweights are great and handpicking is no existent. and he is sitting there handpicking fights and earning money which he does not deserve, not the amount he gets. He is almost laughing at the fans and you guys keep shelling it out and saying what a great career. Good for you. and you know a lot about boxing?

 

Was all about picking fighters 'just good enough' so that fans can't really complain to much. Floyd's team knew what they were doing.

 

So your gut knows more about the PBF-Pac negotiations than Roach does who was Pac's trainer? You can't be taken seriously, log off.

 

You're just as bad as he is. Who are these so called guys out there who would have been favored to beat him? Come Lance give me names. Also fights don't get made for various reasons but PBF is the only fighter I know who always gets the blame when a fight isn't made.

 

If Hearns or Hagler could have made and easy 100 million dollars+ fighting Conor back then you bet your ass they would have knocked each other down to try and secure the fight.

 

The fans don't know boxing and don't care. They become fanboys to the point of not caring if their hero fights the best.. I admit I admire Thomas Hearns, but he came to fight and put it on the line. If Tommy didn't come to fight and prove he wanted to fight the best I wouldn't care about his career. He is not my friend, so it is all about admiring something about him as a fighter and person in the ring. But not about how much money he earned or how he can screw the fans for 100 million. That does not impress me.

 

Boxing was better than that then. It didn't happen because it was not a thought. The young people now don't know how boxing is now. Look at Wilder. He is a top fighter now and he is an amatuer in the style he fights and his defense. But in today's boxing he can do well.

 

Yeah I know Floyd put up roadblocks which he knew made him sound like he was taking the high road, when if he wanted the fight back in 2010 for example he had the fight. He had it if he wanted it. Why wasn't it made. Manny wanted it and fought everyone. He moved up and fought Oscar when that was a huge risk. Now in retrospect we say. oh Oscar was beaten up. Many people before that fight thought Oscar would destroy him. Floyd would not have taken that risk. He never did. Manny is more of a warrior. That is gut instinct, although I don't see how it really takes a gut instinct to see that.

 

Floyd can make any fight he wants. When he wanted Manny that fight was made quickly. He has power. He can earn a lot of money fighting that poor young guy in Japan a month or so ago. Today? It is watered down. and even in this era he handpicked and fought either overrated, old or weakened. Throwing money around and in my mind never creating a great legacy. Undefeated is his legacy.

 

The UFC wasn't around back when they were fighting but if they had a chance to make that kind of money they would have done so. You're a fool if you think they wouldn't have. Wilder has 1 shot KO power he's a HW and he's exciting. No one here is calling Wilder the second coming of Ali, he is what he is.

 

PBF took the risk and moved up to fight Oscar at 154 on his terms. WTF are you talking about? Oscar was fresher then, he wasn't drained like he was for Pac and plenty of people thought Oscar would be too much for PBF.

 

exactly. Smoke and mirrors in a weak era. And then catchweights on top of it, which is legal cheating. And I admit one great I admire and was from the era I love cheated for 2 titles. Ray Leonard started this nonsense fighting Lalonde for titles he was not deserving of . Not even one of them. Catchweights at a weight where a title is involved is legal cheating. If you want a title at 154 for example. Weight in at that weight and win the title fairly. No advantage, or you really did not win it. Not to me.
