    Scoring, and not being scored on is the whole point of boxing in the first place.
    watching someone that skilled at what they do can be boring when the competition is not up to it.
    For instance if you watch a football game where one teem is stacked with tallent. It could be a very boring 41 - 0 game.
    On the other side if you take a fight like Diaz vs Diaz where the fighter does not use any defensive skills and gets hit until he quits. is not exciting.
    IF you think only power punchers are exciting then save yourself the misery, and only watch fights where you know someone is gonna get k.o'd.
    YOu never have to watch another Dloyd Mayweather fight again if you don't want to.
    I don't think anyone would have a problem with that. after all he is the biggest thing in boxing right now. Just look how many posts there are on Floyd Mayweather on this board.
    Some people even take time out of their lives to make funny little photoshop pictures of him with female bodies.
    That's super star status.

    uhhhhhhhlots of fighters landed leather on Floyd i dont know where this untouchable stuff comes from.....the fact is just landing leather doesnt do it...see ODH has you wanted to throw up.....his shots were just were useless because he tried bullshyt flurries.

    Floyd will be the agressor in his fight with Hatton.

    I don't find him consistently dull.

    The Baldomir fight was his first boring one since Castillo 2, or arguably Sosa.
     
  5. Mayrunner is very over-rated, De la hoya beat him, and was ripped off, just remember the 10 thousand fans in the arena that were booing when the fraudelent decision was announced in Mayrunner's favor..:verysad

    Floyd is still going to whoop hattons ass despite all the dumb **** being spewed by the likes of Muttley. Lol...wow...Floyd went out of character to put on a show this fight only a ****** could not see that floyd willingfully give and took. He could of fought the fight differently at any point. Corley talked **** before the fight how floyd was going to run and floyd made it a point to not run at all and beat his ass which he did.

    Fans boo sometimes, but you wont find many reputable boxing analyst, or publications that didn't have Floyd clearly winning that fight.
    I think Oscar could have won it on the judges cards if he had the heart to fight the full 12.

    The pinnacle of nut hugging. I can't believe you actually expect Floyd to be the aggressor against Hatton. Idiocy.

    lol...nah not a nut hugger actually there many who believe floyd will be the agressor like in the Zab Judah fight.

    Floyd was very agressive against fighters who couldnt hurt him with their power or were bigger....check his fights. Hatton is not bigger than floyd as far as height and reach and comming into the fight they will be around the same weight.

    Like i said look for Floyd to apply pressure...overwhelm Hatton with his speed and movement.

    and not everyone who forms a opinion about how a fight may go is "nut hugging" as you would like to say. if i said Floyd would KO hatton or out right obliterate Hatton or hatton stands no chance then fine shoot your little comment but the remark was far from nut hugging....you should act your age or grow up my freind.

    Floyd was a lot more exciting about 4-5 years ago. Now he has some moments, but otherwise he's become DLH-light. Do enough to win and play it safe. Sort of what happened to Lennox later in his career as well.
