    turned out as by the numbers expected as pacquiao-clottey was?

    anyone who had ever seen pac or clottey fight knew exactly how the fight was gonna go,and thats how it went.

    Uhhhh, some fights have been predictable.

    I never imagined 1231 punches from pac. Not even close.

    I also didn't imagine clottey throwing uppercuts.

    Chavez - Haugen had twice as many people and Chavez was a bigger favorite than Pac in this fight.

    Are you harping on about 1231 punches in every thread? How many of those actually landed effectively and were scored? How many head shots did he land... yeah, that's right - not many at all. Twenty percent connect ratio against a man standing right in front of him. Floyd would make Manny look like chump change.

    You try to imply how good clottey is?

    Floyd is good, floyd is accurate, floyd is fast, but floyd is boring.

    Again, we're hearing what Floyd COULD do, what Floyd WOULD do, but what did Floyd actually do? Just everything he could to undermine ACTUALLY fighting Paq. Floyd didn't want to fight Cotto, and when he saw Manny dismantle him, he **** in his baggy pants. Fighting an ancient Mosely is the most ballsy move Floyds made in years, but he knows full well that taking on Paq would be a nightmare in comparison.

    'Chump change' :rofl. Hatton won rounds of this guy. Mayweather, albeit in a masterclass potshotted Marquez. I dont like to compare floyd's previous fights to mannys but look at the baldo-mayweather and pacquiao-clottey fight. Both mayweather and pacquiao were at a substantial size disadvantage. However mayweather schooled baldomir to a UD, pacquiao was willing to let it rip and exchange with the bigger man.

    Oops wrong phrasing. I meant pacquiao being made to look like chump change by mayweather where even hatton was able to nick rounds off mayweather.

    Wrong end of the stick my man. He's saying has that high a number of people exactly predicted how a fight would go.


    I think that's what he's saying, anyway
