    :think LOL. Whatever man. Floyd's right is better and more versatile than Marquez's. Anything Marquez can do in terms of the right hand, Floyd can do better. This fight is now, and always would have been, a Floyd shutout.

    The fight would not sell anywhere near what you're indicating. I have a few casual boxing fan friends and even they say, "Pac's done". And they don't know **** about boxing besides what ESPN airs.

    On a side note, I have zero interest in the fight. I always thought it would be one-sided but was still eager to see it, especially after Pac/Cotto.

    But JMM 3/Bradley really reaffirmed that the fight would be a mismatch. Those fights made me look at Pac's "great" wins with more examination. I then realized Pac was a complete hypejob. Then JMM 4 happened. Book closed.

    Floyd Martinez at 154 and Floyd Canelo are my dream fights for Floyd.

    There's really nobody for Pac to fight again. If he fights and beats JMM again, the public will only clamor for a 6th fight. There's just no point. Pac should hang em' up.

    FYI: Pac resigning with Arum at the beginning of 2012 did this fight in. I blame both Floyd/Arum entirely for the fight not happening. Egotistical ****s. Also, Roach/Pac's insistence on not taking OSDT yet requesting weight penalties, glove sizes, ring sizes, etc. Such ***** **** from coackRoach, as usual.

    Bogotzao is a hardcore *******. You're arguing with a troll of Puga's level. It's a pointless and endless discussion. Just let it go. Let the troll think he's right.

    He has to stare himself in the mirror every night and continue lying to himself... KTFO6 :rofl:rofl:rofl
     
  4. Don't really give much of a ****.

    I think Pacquiao has more chance than Guerrero though.

    I do not believe Post-KTFO6 Pac has any chance whatsoever. People somehow think a fighter just gets up after a devastating KO like that. You people need to keep in mind that the kind of KO pac suffered is usually career changing. Pac will never be the same again... think of how much Cotto changed from Pre-Margs to Post Margs. Pac got KTFO worse than that.

    You can't make linear assumptions like I am. But the likelihood Pac pulls a Duran is very ****ing slim. It's more likely Pac becoms like the hundreds of other boxers who are brought down to reality following a KO like that. Duran is for whateer reason an exception

    Ghost on the other hand is coming off career-best wins and has a boatload of confidence, and rightly so. He's been the underdog his past two fights and was competed well against strong, motivated competition.

    Ghost is a better opponent for Floyd as of today, 2013. A few months ago, different story.

    Lost interest when pac and his team started lying and changing stories... pac opened a can of worms and now EVERYbody is roiding to "level" the playing field! pacquiao had his fair chance to make this fight but he knew the OSDT was a deal killer.... It's ok, in part I'm glad he never got an undeserved payday!! Fmj could be arrogant but it seems he plays by the rules, something I can stand by!!! BTW, RG fight is **** but anyways, nobody is beating Floyd for now. The only competitie fight is mayyybe Martinez @154 and that's a long shot!!!

    I had to check the date on this thread. It's from today and not from early 2010.

    Floyd is still scared of Pac maybe even more than before, since Pac will
    correct his mistake and comes back more skillfull.

    I respect that you know your boxing, but dude he lost the first in my opinion, got put on his ass in the third, sparked out in the 6th?

    Nah, biggest myth on ESB. "Floyd is better at everything." No, he doesn't use nearly as much lateral movement and the set-up is completely different. Setting up the right hand on an angle is just as important as actually being able to throw it. And turning to avoid the straight left is also imperative. Like I said, Floyd can win, but the Manny of the Marquez fight gives him problems. His sensitivity to feints and linear defense is a liability.
