    Yea because the teenager Manny didn't move. He just stood in front of his opponent and said hit me I'm right here. Let's see who can hit the hardest.

    Canelo and Maidana both have stamina issues I think.

    And like Pimp C told you, Floyd is a better athlete, are you having difficulty admitting that?

    Tinman just give Mayweather a little bit of credit... you're like Groves when he's asked if there's anything impressive about Froch, complete sour gr***s :lol:

    I said I was impressed with Mayweather's performance against Marquez.

    I've already said it in this thread.

    Broner's got so many glaring weaknesses it's hard to pick just one.

    But you made several excuses for it, you can do the same thing with Pacquiao vs Mosley, Margarito, Hatton, Cotto, Bradley, De La Hoya... so I suppose as long as you admit it's the same for Manny there's no problem with critiquing Mayweather's fights.

    I would replace Broner with Lara
    Add Andre Dirrell- mental weirdness

    Lara would be aggression.

    I've been critical of Manny's fights before. So what's your point.

    I said I was impressed with Floyd's win over Marquez. I also wasn't surprised at all.

    Good Big man beats a good little man.

    James DeGale...Lacks a really potent jab (or any lead hand punch, for that matter). Loops the left hand, although I think that's by design rather than a technical flaw per se.

    No problem then! :good I agree it's a sorely tainted win, but it was an outstanding performance. I also disagree with people who try to claim 'but he looked fine against Pacquiao at welterweight' because he didn't fight Manny at welterweight for 2 years after this.
