    I agree Floyd just needs to come out and say something. Maybe he's in hiding because nothing he will say will put him in good light unless those words are, "We have a deal. I'll fight Manny Pacquiao on November 13." Even if he says it's because of Roger, which I think is a valid excuse. Just sucks for boxing. How prime will both boxers be in 2011 when Floyd is 34 and Pac is 32?

    **** yeah!

    look at when he fought barrera, he'd just been knocked out by....

    well, morales he was embarassed and KOd by....

    **** that, those two don't count. Marquez had been owned in his last fight by...

    ummm, ok, ok. but hatton was beat by mayweather after a **** performance well above his best weight and like a ***** manny challenged him at 140 where he was the champion? how much of a ***** move was THAT?

    and cotto, well cotto was the #2 welter in the world, at a weight that manny had already had one whole fight at. i mean, his fight with oscar basically gave pac-man a lifetime's worth of experience at 147! and like a punk he challenges the second best guy...what's wrong manny, carlos baldomir busy???

    **** man you're right...pac-man is a clown

    I don't know if you are Black or not, but I have to strongly disagree. I think you are reading too many NEGATIVE racial overtones into this.

    The "Black American Style" of boxing is quite evident. It is usually heavily dependent on speed, puts a premium on quality not quantity of punches, usually more counterpunch oriented, lots of footwork, lots of waist only head movement, and very risk averse in the sense that they don't like to get hit if at all possible. It is less about race and more about conveying a specific "brand" of boxing that is more appreciated in certain circles.

    To say that is the "Black American Style" of boxing does not mean every single Black American fighter practices it. Mike Tyson, Tommy Hearns, Marvin Hagler, Joe Frazier, George Foreman didn't practice it and they were damned great. It also doesn't mean it excludes other fighters, Willie Pep was one of the damned pioneers of the style!

    It is just a sub-category of the Pure Boxer and/or Boxer Puncher.

    floyd mayweather? i can live with that...some of his fights are boring..some of his fights are good.

    manny pacquiao? the most exciting fighter in all of boxing today!!

    wlad is just BORING..plus, his opponents are WACK!!

    and no, i wouldn't like to see ruiz rule the division.

    Because all the details are already agreed upon if he just shuts up.

    Last time he was blaming Pac when it fell through... remember?

    :thinkhmmm interesting points guys. and you're right, I'm reading too much negative into it. i just see race brought into this forum and it pisses me off. add that the common insinuation that manny dodges black fighters and it hits a button. but you have pretty reasonable defined a style of fighting. gives me something to think about:good

    Of course.

    Did I say he was an ATG HW or did I say he is one of my favorite fighters in a list of other current champions???

    Who is better, and why?
