    "For some reason I stopped throwing the jab, it's not the night for the jab I guess."

    If Oscar continued to work off of the jab, he would have had the W.

    Sometimes i wonder if the fight was fixed.

    And if he wins idiots like you will open over 100 threads about how the fight was pointless.

    To be fair to Floyd although he is many things! I don't think he the type to make excuses.

    In any case he trains his ass off, never underestimates his opponents so what excuse is there?

    Oh I thought you guys liked to say Oscar was too old (34), inactive and a part time boxer/promoter

    Cotto is actually Floyd's toughest fight since Oscar so if he wins it'll enhance his ATG rankings. Maybe from number 42 to 40. That's a he'll of a jump. :thumbsup

    He said 'basically 0 chance', which is a long way off the realities of what 6/1 odds actually mean :lol:

    Mayweather won that fight clearly 10 rounds to 2 IMO.

    6-1 isn't anywhere close to 0. Kirkland was around that when he fought Angulo.

    Really? Cleary vegas knows nothing about boxing....better yet those so called experts advising them know nothing.....6-1 odds for this fight is outrageous and its obviously built to munipulate those fight fans who know the game and understand that 3-1 odds is the more likely outcome.....people will buy the 6-1 odds, its to tempting. Gotta love Vegas......that's how I won 10k in the superbowl.
