    Was majority decision btw ;) and I like the way you made up a quote aswell rather actually quoting the text in your most recent post. I'd actually love to see your opinion on who has better punching power. I know my point wasn't great but you seem to be a hating on foreman here. Read the actual thread comparing wlad and foreman's power and you will see more than enough reasons to favour foreman's power over wlad's as I'd rather not post anything more as you'd only pick holes in it even if it was a ligitiment point :/.

    Casual Pac fans scare me. With their talk of Heavyweights ducking Pac.

    Met a whole group at the pub last year when Pacman was fighting. They didn't understand that Pac was a ww champ. They though he was Boxing Universe Champion and had already beat every boxer on the planet except Floyd. They assumed he had the same belt Tyson and Ali had.


    Also pretty much every woman who has ever watched a Vitali fight with me always asked during the staredown "That guy looks angry. Is he angry at the other guy? Does he not like him?"

    Just today actually, trying to explain my friend why Mayweather would beat Pacquiao.He is a smart guy honestly and at least gives some reasons even if they suck.

    "The only way Floyd can win is if he KOs him. Pacquiao is too fast and busy."

    "Mayweather is not a defensive fighter, he is more offensive."

    There where plenty of other comments which where false by a mile, but some people in this website say the same things so i wont talk about them.

    "Boxers in a streetfight let other guys tire out by blocking their punches and when they are tired they knock them out"
    - told him I'm gonna knock him out withouth blocking one punch.

    That guy has only seen german based fighters like Abraham, Ottke etc

    "Boxers don't even punch hard. MMA fighters would knock out boxers in the ring like nothing"

    that Klitchos are only winning because of ther height and physical strength
    blocking punches with your face is gonna tire the other guy out and help you win the fight.
    ( i know there were some cases where that acutally worked)

    Smart Fan: Who is the Greatest Fighter? Dumbass fan: Mike Tyson is the GOAT, He is undefeated and Ko'd every opponent in round 1.

    Smart fan" How about Tyson-Holyfield? Dumbass " Fan ": What? Tyson KO 1, Easy.

    This is why I think Tyson skills are way overrated among non boxing fans. The real fans know he is talented but non boxing fans might say things like that.

    Direct quote:

    ''I'm no expert, but I don't think Mayweather is known as much of a counterpuncher. He might train that way since he saw how effective that style could be against Pacquiao, but it's not a style that comes naturally to himas far as I know.''
