Saw a thread about Victor just now. Had me thinking. Thought this page could use a bump or two... Yes it was. But what do you say about it now? ****in' A, Bazooka... Yup. Old AND past it, eh? Only fights those guys? Is that right? A lot of these statements in the thread. All that don't directly state it seem to imply that they don't think Mayweather will fight in 2011 nor against a guy off a hot win. Ding ding ding... Winner. 8 pages deep, best post. Yup "not his style lately" "ortiz would be floyd's best victory in years" I wonder if he still feels this way and if his comments post fight reflect this opinion. Well said. But it's Floyd, so he didn't/doesn't receive credit... ever. He did. And the rumors were true. Indeed. So he values Floyd's win over Victor more than one over JMM and Mosley. And he picks Ortiz to win. Word. Why again would nobody believe this? #3 WW "tune up." Only under Mayweathers' standards. 1. Pac 2. Ortiz Lufcrazy's statements from this thread shows that he values Floyds' win over Ortiz more than anyone. Far from what went down, my man... Hahah Well written. "too dangerous," eh? Maybe he was just trolling, but this is pretty decent stuff. He had to have been trolling, as Victor clearly beat Lamont. Yup Still feel that way looking back? Because that was the sentiment. Bold claims you had. And confident in them too. What actually happened in the time since this post: Pacquiao W MD12 Marquez III Pacquiao L SD12 Bradley Pacquiao L KO6 Marquez IV
Boom. Love seeing what people say about Floyd prefight and then what's said post fight. He best is when they've reported as fact that Floy is fighting Mathew Hatton or malignaggi in the past, and then based on a completely false premise call him a *****. The comments before he fought Mosley were the best. Lots of people said he would meet fight him, then that Mosley would dominate. Afterward- Floyd picked him bc he knew he was ***insert nonsense***.
This is a crap fight. Lopez made Ortiz quit. C'mon Floyd. 147: Pacquiao, Bradley, Garcia, Peterson/Matthyse 154: Martinez, Alvarez, Lara, Kirkland All sound like infinitely better fights...
Hindsight is 20/20... Ortiz was winning the Lopez fight, the guy had his jaw broken in a way that made it completely understandable that he had to stop the fight, guy had that jaw cracked early, and had it completely broken through by the 9th round. His jaw still looks messed up now. Anyways... you arent being reasonable... at the time Mayweather fought Ortiz Bradley, Peterson (who Ortiz actually beat, but had a draw with in his fight before berto) and Matthyse were at 140 LBS... Garcia had an rematch cause with Morales... Martinez was at 160... Kirkland a few months earlier had just been KO'd by a featherfisted Nobuhiro Ishida in the first round... Alvarez had fought nobody and was not developed enough... I don't know what Lara was doing at time. A top WW at the time was berto, he was in line for a fight with mayweather, had held a belt for years, beat some good to decent names, and Ortiz was just moving up from 140 and everyone was doubting him due to his uninspired effort against Peterson, which fight ended in a controversial draw, which most know ortiz should have won. Berto was top ranked at WW at the time, Ortiz fought him in a war, in which Ortiz won most of the rounds and looked like a beast. After that victory Ortiz was RANKED #2 at the division. Really at the time... Mayweather had no 154 LB belt... he was not obligated to fight Martinez who was fighting Williams I believe... and besides Pac, which fight should have happened even earlier than that not by his own fault that it didnt entirely, Ortiz was the 2nd best option at WW, its in the ring rankings. Who else at WW was there?????
Typical Mayweather thread,the same **** for 8 yrs. Yet ppl never learn no matter how many times threads get bumped and they end up looking foolish.
Brilliant bump Nonito Smoak. Exposing alot of people who i bet now try to devalue the fight or say it was a cherry-pick etc etc
Everybody on this board who has negative things to say about Floyd is an idiot, a moron and a damn fool.
