You Floyd nut-huggers are all insane. The entire crowd was booing Floyd for that cheap suckerpunch. I actually think Floyd did the right thing, sicne Ortiz was dirty first. But you have to respect Larry Merchant for asking questions that the ENTIRE CROWD wanted to hear answered. Floyd then said to Merchant: "You ain't ****!"... is that good? Is that better than anything Merchant ever said to Floyd? And in Merchant's other criticisms of Floyd, he again was simply echoing what every single fan was thinking and saying. Did you watch the Mayweather-Baldomir fight? The crowd was booing the whole fight and many left the place in round 10. Merchant rightfully gave Floyd a hard time, because the fans paid to see a fight and instead Floyd was on his bike for 12 rounds, pot-shotting his way to an easy points win. This is after comparing himself to Sugar Ray Robinson. That's called false publicity, and Larry Merchant did the right thing in calling Floyd out on that.
May - Pacquiao fight has to happen real soon. Floyd was still icing Ortiz but not to the degree I expected. That said May still has sufficient tools and knowledge to beat the greatest threat to his legacy.
Merchant is still a scumbag for trying to make fun of Floyd for walking into the MGM with his kids. They're his ****ing kids, he can't have them around??
man watch the video again or at least watch it once. Floyd got mad when Larry kept going on about it expect for asking about the fight or how he did. Mayweathers ansewer wasnt good enough for him so he kept trying to discredit the win so Mayweather gave him some. Baldmoir fight was alright to ask Mayweather about whats up. but when Mayweather defened his belt for the first time against Manfredy, Merchant was on him telling him that it was an early stoppage when Mayweather isnt the ref. Hes a hater and a old fart that Kellerman repalces next year
"Shane Mosley, I love you" "Derrick Jefferson! I love you!" "One of the good things here is that we'll never have to see Norman Stone again" "The referee is telling the fighters to calm down?! He should calm down! Nobody paid to see him!" I don't know, whether or not he is a racist or not. I don't know, and I don't care, but what I do know is that Larry is a harsh critic and he says whatever is on his mind at the time. And these quotes I put up are from the top of my head of him bashing on a white guy or giving praise to a black fighter. Again, may'be he is a racist or not, I don't know and don't care, but I just put those quotes out there just some food for thought.
Why does every conflict on this site end up being interpreted as racism? Floyd and Larry are two difficult personalities...don't you think if you put two difficult people together, there will be trouble? It is possible to dislike someone of a different race without being racist. These guys are just difficult people, that's all. It doesn't matter what color they are.
