    Well, if I quoted it exactly it wouldn't be about you... know would it?

    How lame, using the old go to knee jerk reaction, " if you _fill in the blank_ then you don't know shlt about boxing".

    So if someone disagrees with you they don't know shlt huh?

    I never said that I thought Mayweather lost to DeLaHoya, Maidana, or Pacquiao. I do think he lost Castillo clearly. A case can be made that he lost to DeLaHoya and Maidana. It is also true that many people feel that his fight with Pacquiao could have been a draw or even a loss for Mayweather.

    Not everyone is going to agree with you man! It doesn't mean that the person doesn't know a lot about boxing.

    We have no proof on what would happen. All we have are some sparring stories and what each man did in the ring. Thru their first 12 years as pros they both had very impressive and very similar results.

    I still haven't said who I think would win.

    Also, I implied that you would be Pretty Boy Floyd's blitch... just like Cube was implying that Ren was Eazy's bltch. Or do you think Floyd would be your bltch? You think awfully high of yourself lol

    Ah, so you're hedging your comments with the old "other people say..." subterfuge. In that case, I take back my suggestion that you don't know **** about boxing. It might just be that the people you read/listen to/interact with DKSAB. Better?

    I rarely accuse people of not knowing **** about boxing. But anyone who even thinks that "there's an argument" that Mayweather lost to Maidana or Pacquiao (especially) simply doesn't understand how boxing matches are supposed to be scored.

    I thought that Floyd clearly beat Oscar but I had the fight closer than most people. In any event, I don't see any way that a non-biased judge could Oscar more than 6 rounds under even the most generous of scoring though (I thought he won 5). FWIW, I had Castillo I as either a 1-pt loss for Floyd or possibly a draw.

    The line was specifically about Eazy "raping" Ren by exploiting him financially, not about Ren being in love with Eazy or some kind of Eazy E fanboy. What did you first hear about the line when the movie came out?

    Well, I actually am a referee, judge and timekeeper.

    Castillo was robbed. The DeLaHoya fight was close, a draw would be fair. Maidana? Say what you will but their first fight was close, a draw would be fair. PAC? Closer than Mayweather fans would like to admit, Mayweather by a point or two, but a draw isn't out of the question.

    I look at who controlled the biggest portion of the round, I look at punches landed, I look at effective aggression. Those are the 3 most important things IMO.

    Anyway, lighten up guy. This is supposed to be fun. I've enjoyed boxing forums for about 16 years, maybe a little longer. None of us know who would really win these fights. Anything can happen in that ring. We all know more than the average person when it comes to boxing. With that said

    I'm going to pick Morales by split-decision. Some people will say Mayweather was robbed. They will fight again and Mayweather will win by scores of 119-109, 118-110, and 116-112 but most people will say it should have been a draw or a close decision win for either fighter. Morales pushes for a rubber match but Mayweather claims that he will only do it if Morales agrees to tell the world that he lost the first two fights... Morales tells the Mayweather's "fvck you" and the fight is never made.

    I'm 41 years old, I still have the CD I bought back in '91. I know what the song is about.
