    Actually his spars are usually very entertaining.

    He's 38 years old and has been fighting for over 19 years professionally. Did you expect him to change and become a brawler?

    floyd has not looked himself since canelo, you dont watch him for knockouts or beatdowns (atleast not at his 147 and up days) but you watch for clean crisp accurate counterpunching coming from an ATG defense. since canelo he has not shown me that, he was not crisp and clean in the maidana fights or the berto fight, pac he impressed me but mainly with how he managed to nullify any offense pac wanted to put out.

    floyd v berto round 6 was entertaining as hell though

    Berto is a terrible fight to go out on.

    The fight looked rehear.sed it was so predictable.

    He will have to come back one more time to knock that farce off as his last ever cherry picked fight.

    You claim to love boxing but make it a point to criticize a certain style and fighter's in ring skillset (an across the board respected skillset by his peers at that). I love boxer punchers, however I respect all styles across the board and will continue to watch all styles. Who sounds more the boxing fan? :huh

    Who watches something they know they wont like and then makes a thread about how much they didn't like a fight they knew they wouldnt like

    I've never found Maweather boring but I have to admit I zoned out after a few rounds though it was partly due to how bad Berto was.
