ESPN writes **** articles. For everything. Seriously, don't waste your time with that ****. Read BadLeftHook or TheSweetScience instead. Hell ESB itself has some good **** from time to time.
Wow!!! Thats the media for you, cant believe **** they say anymore. I saw the video at the fight site and you are on point with the things you pointed out. Good Post!
i missed your thread on how people jumped on the manny sparring partner story without asking for verification of its authenticity. could you give the title so i can read it.
What is disappointing is that this is a major sports media outlet. There are actually some bad things you can say about Floyd that are actually true, why resort to fabrications:huh
You are correct. As a fan of fairness and sensibility, it is really sickening to see things like this that are done so blatantly and intentionally to paint a false picture. And it really seems spiteful.
Oh my, an unknown source on a wanna be site. You also missed my thread on verifying that Floyd will fight Spadafora or that Floyd asked for 100 million. Those were all stories from dubious sources. I am discussing ESPN here. A reputable media outlet. btw, that story is bs. The writer should answer to someone and the "Sparring partner should show himself or keep quiet."
That sparring partner story started from an article site I am familiar with. Anyone could have invented and posted that story; was complete BS. Was not even an interview, it was an --article--. Thanks for posting this though. Its the same thing I alluded to in another thread. Its a pity how tainted and biased the media is, even at this level.
my point exactly, if the dubious sources make floyd look bad, then its worth a thread. if its about pac, i might mention it on a post.
i think floyd can make a redemption fight by kicking victor ortiz's ass and then fight pac after pac vs jmm 3
In that case you should disregard its articles about Floyd being a great fighter before and its having Ray Rob as its GOAT. Disregard EVERYTHING they say just because you love Floyd. :hi:
