    Please don't accuse me of being a Gayweather fan. I'm a fan of him as a boxing fan but i'm not a nuthugger or anything.

    bull****, the man can go 12 rounds at the same pace he was going from the first 5. Dont listen to that myth that some brought about on here. Youll be made to look a fool once he gets his respect.

    that was a ploy him and bob came up with to save face. remember he was the 'most feared welter' on the planet before that fight, and was made to look very crap. This was the same margo who thought he beat paul williams the ****ing lyer.

    Are you serious?

    I'm a fan of Clottey...but he definitely has conditioning issues. It's no myth..watch the fights man, he has stamina problems.

    Margarito's ankle injury was actually mentioned before the fight. There was an article on it, I'll try to dig up.

    **** you too, dumbass, go back to the other thread and try to reply to some of my posts, peon. :deal
    Did I say that Clottey won the fight?, all I said is that he injured his hand and if he didn't it could've been far more difficult for Margarito. Hell, he had an injured hand and still made it tough for Margarito. Fact is, the man injured his hand and a rematch is necessary if Clottey wants it bad enough. Please notice how Clottey moves away from some of Margarito's punches and exposes his offense as one-dimensional that even a ******ed dumb**** like yourself would see it.

    No. Not them, just about facing LEGIT WW's who are top contenders. But hey, maybe someday Mayweather will defend against one. Doubtful from the garbage he and Ellerbe spew...

    WTF are you talking about? Of course he beat legit WW's to win his belt. Legit as in they had been WW for some time. I am talking today, about facing legit Top contenders in his division. He is yet to defend agianst one, and who knows if he ever will. He should drop his belt since he won't defend it against guys who are working their asses off for a shot.

    I'm talking about what I mentioned to you before. Everytime this guy is mentioned as the best opponent for Mayweather with his mediocre skills people mention that he's a legit WW, if he's a legit WW who has been in this division for years and is feared by all then how come the only accomplishment was a few title defenses against complete scrubs, to be painfully honest and a WBO title.

    About defending against top opponents, his next opponent is great proof that he's looking for the best and is looking to Unify as he was supposed to LONG ago. Let's see how the first test will go and if he is one of the most feared fighters today as many claim he is.

    Why do you insist on asking questions you should know the answer to? Hell, it's not a secret that some guys get shots, and some don't. Yet, AGAIN you ask that question Scar. Do you think Forrest would even had his shot had Shane not agreed? Or Winky Wright for that matter? Are we to believe while Shane and DLH were trading the 154 title, they really were better then Winky? Or did they just accomplish more? Why do you think it took guys like Hagler and Moore YEARS of fighting contenders before they got their fight? Just not worthy? This is a different time in boxing, where politics playing a role is almost EXPECTED rather then being an isolated incident. Fights that make sense don't always happen.


    He TRIED to unify years ago. Dude....do yo keep up with all fighters or just a couple? It's no secret Arum has tried to get him fights, AND unification Scar. It's been said a million times, but you can't fight someone who won't fight you. And if you want to take that statement into meaning EVERYONE ducked him (which you seem to keep trying to do with your sanctimonious comments), then there's no need to continue this discussion. We can make smart ass comments, or have a nice discussion.

    They way you post you make it sound like he and Arum have not tried to make fights happen. Hell, that's all they've been doing for the past 3-4 years.
