    Most actual boxing fans have either a dearth of knowledge or are encumbered with more misinformation than truth...let alone non-fans.

    this site is getting dumber everyday thanks to the mayweathers.

    i'm not an expert but i know something about boxing. here's i think what happened:

    mayorga got tagged, but look at him when he was about to fall... he couldn't believe that he was about to go down. and you know mayorga right? he is a proud mofo and I think he was thinking of a way to blame the KD to and the closest thing to his eyes was his fists...his thumb. he quit.

    No we don't. And it would be nice if the pretentious know-it-all douchebags on this forum stopped pretending they did.

    listen to roger

    FF: Roger what do you think of Manny Pacquiao signing to fight Miguel Cotto?

    RM: I don’t think he’s going to beat Cotto. If he does beat Cotto, I’ll be amazed. That will tell me how good he really is. He’s fighting a guy who can make the weight, and who’s a pretty good puncher. I’ve got to see him beat Cotto… I’ve got to see it with my own eyes.

    Obviously if Pacquiao is taking the fight with Cotto, he thinks he can beat him. That should tell you right there… for a little guy, he’s got some balls! Fighting Miguel Cotto… De La Hoya… Ricky Hatton. All of those guys are much bigger than he is. I thought Pacquiao would lose to Ricky Hatton, and obviously I was wrong. He’s obviously a better fighter than I thought he was

    Boxing is not as popular as it used to be and this explains why there are fewer knowledgeable fans. But for those who follow it, man-oh-man = it's religion to us!

    What Roger meant was If you disagree with me you don't know **** about boxing.
    As for the juicing allegations??? Of the two I'd suspect Floyd more than paquaio

    HBO, Showtime, ESPN, etc. all appear to believe that boxing fans are extremely stupid. The promoters appear to believe this also, that's why they continually get away with corrupt judges, corrupt boxing commissions, mismatches, ranking boxers who have never fought anyone ranked, such as Wilder, etc..................

    Most ESB posters know quite a bit more about boxing than my friends and family.
