mayweather is over rated too.. i think..:good

 

Lol@ the WWM is full of **** statements.

- I wish Kelly Pavlik and David Haye would get the fark back in the ring with a decent fighter, seeing good fighters waste their prime is utterly frustrating
- I think Manny should fight Cotto at 147, he doesn't need the advantage and the only single point for it is to hope for detrimental effects on Cotto (slightly reducing the significance of a Pacquiao win)
- I think Lampley does a good job and his iconic voice is an asset, people need to cry less about commentators
- I think Bunce was a filthy big walking douche but he is great for British boxing, to his credit
- I think anyone who brings up Vitali Klitschko as though its some sort of blight on Lennox Lewis' resume should die in a fire, most fighters go out getting sparked by a journeyman, he went out with a gutsy escape against a guy who turned out to be a very capable fighter
- I hope Floyd drops the act towards the end of his career and lets himself become more likeable
- I think the rate of robbery's/foul play is proportional to the level of exposure, Germany is the typical scapegoat but the same behaviour happens in a lot of boxing community's
- I think Margarito knocks Cotto out regardless of hand wraps
- I think Mayweather Sr is a **** person and a one dimensional trainer

A few random thoughts.

 

+1

This Idiot said European/African boxers basically sucks. What an ass whipe

 

I hate catch weight fights:twisted::fire
I hate posters on this forum who can't be objective because they don't like a fighter:twisted:
I can't stand Larry Merchant:-(
The heavyweight division SUCKS!!!!!!:yep
Rocky Marciano is WAY overrated!!!!!:yep
A lot of PPV fights aren't worth the money:-(
Jermaine Taylor needs to retire:yep
Elite fighters could and should fight more than twice a year
I hate with a passion all these damn belts, ONE CHAMPION PER WEIGHT CLASS PLEASE!!!!!!:fire

 

i cant be arsed. :good

 

- I think that bad judging is ****ing the sport up the ass and robbing a fighter of all the hard work he puts in
- I think that Floyd Mayweather Jr needs to stop bringing up other fighters loses because it's irrelevant.
- I think that Carl Froch is great for the sport but he is an arrogant twat who I cant wait to see knocked out by Andre Dirrell
- I think that Joe Calzaghe should be commended for the hard work he put in and he is a good boxer but I think he should have fought Chad Dawson before retiring.
- I think that Manny Pacquiao is great for the sport but his *******s should calm down with the Henry Armstrong comparison's thats ridiculous
- I think that Manny Pacquiao should of fought Cotto at 147lbs instead of 145lbs regardless of size, if your rated P4P prove it without a catchweight.
- I think that boxing on a whole needs to be marketed differently. MMA seems to make their fighters accessible and people can relate to them but the same cant really be said about boxers. They should have boxers on more reality type TV shows or documentaries so that they get their faces out their more.
- I think that MMA will eventually blow boxing out of the water as I can see boxing moving more and more underground and MMA taking over due to the way they market their fighters
- I think that Floyd Mayweather Jr vs Juan Manuel Marquez is a complete mismatch and that could be comparable to Cotto vs Jennings to some degree.
- I think that Floyd Mayweather Jr is terryfied of fighting any opponent that would be a serious threat to his 0 record and it annoys me to hear him proclaim his greatness when he really hasn't done anything remotely great in my opinion
- I think that Bernard Hopkins is one of the best this sport has had in terms of where he has come to where he is now. But I dont like the handpicking strategy he seems to want to be applying now but I dont blame him based on his age.
- I think that there is not enough of fighters fighting the best fighters. Champions need to fight more contenders and every mandatory should be given a shot if they are next in line.
- I think that places like Germany should not have German judges judging fights and the same goes for other countries. They should have judges who dont reside in the country judging big fights.
- I think that the corruption in boxing is the number 1 cause of this sport heading downhill.

 

You are a genious! :happy:hi::thumbsup

 

**** Kona -- that's a pretty good rant. I agree with 95% of it.

 

Get rid of inept judges( at least have them wear glasses.)
Get rid of some of the governing bodies ( too many belts.)
Would like to see fighters stop making stupid remarks after the fight ( like Ortiz.)
No excuses from fighters that lose ( wishful thinking.)

 

I hate Boxing fans. yup, you mother****ers are the most arrogant know it alls I ever met in my life. no other sport has such fans. You mother****ers all think your experts but most of you don't know **** and if iit wasn't for a certain fighter you wouldn't even post about boxing. (ahh that felt good to say)

I sometimes hate the association that comes with my avatar. No mother ****er PBF would not beat Thomas Hearns either Sugar Ray and a whole slew of Welterweights. He is really a JR. WW. and would only fight certain Welters for Money. And with this being his 5th Division I'm okay with that.

Wladomir and Vitali are ****ing boring. point blank period

Paul Williams has horrible ****ing balance.

ohh and I'm keeping it real, I don't give a fluck, PBF is not getting beat by Pernell Whitaker.

James Toney is one of the greastest natrual fighters of all ****ing time.

I don't like watching guys who weigh 105 pounds. wtf is that midget boxing?

There is no one singular greastest fighter of all time.

Rocky Marciano is overrated.

 

- A prime Kotsya Tszyu beats Pacquiao
- Joe Calzaghe is a bit overrated
- The Heavyweight division is the worst its been in years (Klitschko fans will argue this one)
- Fanboys and Haters really need better hobbies
- Floyd Mayweather has been ducking the Welterweight division ever since he beat Carlos Baldomir back in 06
- Ricky Hatton needs to retire
- Tomasz Adamek should stay as a Cruserweight
- Joel Casamayor was screwed in the Freitas, Corrales and Castillo "losses".

 

My girlfriend don't think so. :rofl:yep:hey
