isn't it odd how floyd doesn't want to talk about this fight at all or make a prediction? THen again, he can't read or gage these two at all, he said Cotto would get KOed by Judah and Shane, and he also said Pac-Hatton was a 50-50 fight. (don't remember what he said for Oscar-Pac). floyd is a smart boxer but he is stupid when it comes to analyzing Cotto and Pac.
floyd and anybody who has been around boxing as long as he has knows their ****....i think floyd underestimates cotto though....cotto is a much better "boxer" than most give him credit for...he took a nice points win over shane who is the best ww today (consensus)
Strange because Roger, as crazy as he is, is pretty good at predicting fights. I remember on 24/7 he was saying Hatton looked good under Floyd Sr. but made sure not to pick Hatton, he seemed hesitant. Also he said Shane would whoop Margarito's ass, and he did of course.
floyd knows his stuff no doubt. but he doesn't know Cotto or Pacquiao at all, he can't figure them out or relate to their fearlessness and true warrior hearts. that's why he avoids fighting them,
how long u been watching the sport?? Floyd wasn't the same fighter at 130-135-140...he would trade and mix it up...floyd underestimates cotto...i dont think it has ne thing to do with understanding "fearlessness"
when a handpicker like floyd sees a FEARLESS warrior like Cotto and Pac come in and fight anyone and everyone regardless of the high risk, unlike himself, it has to spook him. I think the reason floyd is so reluctant to commit to fight the winner of Pac-Cotto is because deep down he has tremendous respect for both. A bully, floyd is a classic bully, does not like to fight anyone he can't intimidate. floyd is showing all the signs of being intimidated himself by Cotto and Pac. "They ain't they own boss." WTF
I love that you started this thread just so you could talk **** on Floyd. Lets be honest.. you are knocking Floyd for his predictions in fights.. how pathetic is that? Seriously who gives a **** who he thinks is going to win. And I guarentee Floyd fights the winner of Cotto-Pac or Mosley.. he has too, there is no one else out there..
Err, he said DLH would spark Pac out and that if Hatton cant even beat Pac, Hatton should give him his gloves so he can pour gasoline and set them on fire...
floyd should be knocked for the fact he IS going to duck fighting Cotto, Pac or Mosley next. I guarantee it. if I'm wrong I'll get a tattoo of the likeness of Ellerbe on my bicep:bbb
the fight's gonna happen (not mosley though). so remind me to ask you what it's like to have the image of a gayman on your arm next year.
Floyd also couldn't make the contractually obligated weight for the JMM fight. Cotto and Manny did. See Floyd, this is what real proffesionals look like, you little twat.
Nah seen as he supposed to fight the winner he's not going to be too loud about this one. Cause it would look bad if he predicted a guy to lose and then he won and went on to face Floyd. Mentally that would be a victory for whomever he ends up facing. caught between his money and his brains. He wants Pac to win real bad but knows Cotto's gonna beat his ass.
