"he's paid his dues"

I think the main beef with Floyd is how little he fights. When Floyd "cherry picks", he makes sure to pluck you coming off an impressive win.

 

i think its frequency duran would fight a bum or two but that was to stay busy while training for a hall of famer

if mayweather and pacman only fight once or twice a year you dont wanna lay down ppv bucks for a **** match

 

Consumers can exercise the right to refuse sub-par products like emmanuel-Mosley. I don't understand why some people give their money to watch a lame fight and then complain about paying for it. Responsibility is also on the consumer's shoulders to research the products they're considering.

 

it hurts boxing as a whole too

guys dont fight enough dont clean divisions the best fights dont happen

why

because nobody in the top 10 p4p is all that active

 

we pay because there's always the chance that the fight might be a classic one.

 

and cause its our fave fighter

or cause these guys like floyd and pac only fight once or twice a year it becomes an event and build up you just gotta see

if manny and floyd fought more you could afford to not tune in for a bad fight

but since its only an occassion to see them it makes it more necessary

 

I know what you mean. If I was a casual fan watching emmanuel-Mosley thinking they're two exciting fighters, I would say boxing is gay after watching it and go back to football or UFC.

Why not just put that money onto the favorite instead of ordering those kind of fights?

 

all of pacquiao's fights now are like tune ups. who is a real threat to him? the same but to a lesser extent is true of mayweather.

 

if guys were more active guys like manny and floyd taking soft touches would not get crucified

 

THe difference being that fighters like JMM are always looking to fight the best fighters in their respective divisions and their tune-up fights are usually preperations for such fights ie. JMM using Diaz as a tune up to fight the best fighter in the world(again) whereas most fans perceive both Pac and Floyd as ducking each other(regardless of who's to blame).

 

Thread starter excluded Cotto for whatever reason.

 

i think cotto catches **** cause ppl think he is shot but is taking soft touches to prolong himself

i dont know how much he has left after margo and manny pounded him but we wont find out from his fights vs Foreman and Mayorga

 

Agreed.

I remember when Pacquiao and Mosley worked out a deal there were people saying "he should fight Berto!"......what the **** is Berto going to do? Berto's not a real challenge to Pacquiao.

The only real challenge for Mayweather or Pacquiao at welterweight is each other.

 

I think martinez has nobody that is really appealing to me at 160 . Maybe a catch weight fightwith floyd or andre ward . Although I think tje 168 guus are too big. I think manny and floyd have lots more options
