Prizefighter, McCloskey/Corley, Huck/Afolabi II & Mayweather/Cotto RbR!

Its not good mate, I need to get a new hobby, drinking beer is quite a poor one.

 

I think that you were being a bit harsh...it was a bit wider than you were suggesting :thumbsup

 

So long it doesn't get you into too much trouble its not a bad hobby to have, and you always come over as an affable drunk

 

cheers, I still have my moments but I have got a lot better as I got older, Im still a bloody div sometimes though. lack of common sense I think.

 

Whichever way you carve it up, last nights boxing was great. We should all be very thankful to BoxNation for providing a quality show.

Certainly was.

 

cheers for all your scores , the press scores i have are 23-0 in favor of mayweather...that will increase though when im homeand on twitter

collected over 140 scores so far from all the sites for the fightscorecollector blog

so far only 1 guy from teh general forum has scored for cotto although there are afew on the scene

 

Not surprising.

 

I think Khan and Pacman now have a chance of beating Mayweather. For me, his movement is not as good anymore. I am talking about that sharp step backwards like a Olympic fencer, the spin off to the side. Little things like that which he did in the Shane Mosley fight, enabled him to fight in the centre of the ring on the front foot offensively but he was very hard to hit. He just kind of let Cotto come in after afew rounds, and Cotto was not cutting off the ring anywhere near as fast as Ricky Hatton........

Its all about movement speed, if you want to give Mayweather a tough fight. Cotto did a good job of cutting the ring off, and getting Mayweather on the ropes. I think Pacman would fight Mayweather in and out, sharp shooting....pretty much the same way he fought Cotto.

"I have always thought Pacman had slightly the faster hand speed in combination punching, with single shots Mayweather is the more correct puncher, but movement wise..? Pacman has more speed, and agility........and this will be a factor"

Amir Khan is a different case, his dimensions size/reach/handspeed.....i think will be enough to drag Mayweather into a rough fight.

Its was a good performance from Mayweather, but i think the landscape once against at welterweight has changed.

"If Pacman, turned by into the hulk against Bradley..........i don't think Mayweather will be so vocal about fighting Pacman"

 

Also, Pacqiuao's win over Cotto was far more impressive, but styles make fights of course and Floyd won comfortably nonetheless so can't take anything anyway from Mayweather.

 

Starting again now on Boxnation, gonna see if I score it the same sober(ish)

 

The manner of his win for sure, but the man he beat? I'm not so sure. Cotto being more solid at 154 and having a proper corner and a gameplan would make a big difference in a rematch imho.

 

:good

 

what a terrific fight that was, props to both warriors. Floyd's inside game and counter's were beautiful to watch..Cotto wanted it bad he wasn't going to give up. Remember Floyd went up to that weight class and stood with miguel for 12.

when Floyd gets out should he stick to 147?

 

Anyone know where/when I can catch the fight? Are BoxNation showing it again?
