    Actually to tell you the truth, I dont even laugh at this guy he :barf disgusted me with his post interview acting like he won impressivly and talkin about how the judge tryed to rob him. I can understand that hes not gonna admit he got his ass kicked,but he should have stfu and been humble. Also saying hed whup Hagler not funny,just an a delusional a-hole.

    Mayorga... and imo its not that close. A prime Mayorga didnt just throw haymakers from the outside, but he also threw very quick short choppy punches too. And if you watch him at his best (forrest 1) he has good movement, decent footwork, and was more then what hes credited for as being just a crude caveman.

    and seriously.... skills are overrated IMO. I dont give a **** if Mayorga isnt a 'skilled' fighter, its about how good of a fighter you are and if you win fights, good skills are a way to do that, so is having a great chin, good power, good stamina, a ferocious attack and a will to win.

    IMO 147lb mayorga is so underrated.... Hell i would take the Mayorga that beat forrest to give anyone at 147 hell.... if not beat them. Including Mosley, Cotto, Clottey, Margarito, ect....

    That being said im not trying to **** on Froch, i dont think he gets his credit eather.... So what the man doesnt have a lot of skills, he has a lot of other important qualities that get him wins.... thats what matters.

    Hes just not on Mayorgas level in the slightest imo

    And in what way or fashion?

    Youve seen prime mayorga fight yes? against cruz? lewis? forrest? sorry but as much as people would like to remember him as such, the mayorga at middleweight against trinidad was not a prime mayorga, or the one that oscar fought, or vargas, or shane. watch the cruz fight, lewis fight, forrest fight hell even the spinks fight.... im not quite sure in what catagory froch is better in your eyes.

    ****, I'd pick the Mayorga of the Vargas fight (which was technically fought at SMW) over the Froch of the Dirrell fight. :yep

    Mayorga is a really good trash talker, although I think he takes it too far sometimes, like getting peoples family members involved, but bringing pink gloves, and a skirt for his opponent is great stuff. He's one of the few people who can pull it off.
