The official Mayweather vs. Pacquiao aftermath trash receptacle

LOL. seriously are you gonna stay with that?

youre contradicting yourself.

You give floyd so much pass your standard is unbelievably low at this point.
1.came overweight for marquez
2. made marquez jump arguably 3 weight division
3. forced maidana not to wear his gloves
4. catchweight with canelo after always criticizing pac with catchweight.
5. Doesnt want to be weigh during fight night.

Enjoy the fight but this version of PAC is NO WHERE near prime. IF floyd beats him boxing history will echo this undisputable fact. :good

 

when mayweather comes back off a long layoff and takes on marquez its not ok to tip the odds a little bit when most guys would take on a complete nobody to look good against? i dont agree with cheating marquez on the scales but all in all mayweather made marquez (who was what? p4p #5 lock at the time) look like a fool after a long layoff and a rib injury ?

maidanas gloves? yeh lets touch on that for a minute, maidana gets caught trying to use tampered gloves (as deemed illegal by the commission). floyd then voids his right of using his choice of gloves (do you think its fair? i mean the man tried to cheat so should that not void his right to choose, seems like a pretty lenient punishment. then we get rumours that maidana was paid off (to which he himself denies on record). mayweather is taking on pac now and gave him any choice of 8 oz glove he wants, just goes to show he was not trying to CHEAT anyone (like maidana tried to do to floyd). like i said any other fighter you would have had no issue with but because its floyd you jump up and down

yeh even floyd is on record saying he contradicts himself. the catchweights arent so bad when you consider the following

canelo weighed in 153 for the trout fight (i think he was 172 fight night)

floyd weighs in ON FIGHT NIGHT at 152 for a 154 title fight vs cotto

canelo was the best possible fight at that division (a division floyd is clearly not made for)

and floyd weighs in on fightnight plenty of times cotto and ortiz i know 100% he did just from memory.


but you are right pac is not the same fighter he once was, but he is coming off a destruction over a clearly overmatched algieri and a more convincing win over bradley (who has only improved at this point where pac has apparently declined from their first fight) who was p4p top 5. meanwhile you got floyd who is clearly not the fighter he once was aswell, having a tough fight against maidana of all people ? evidence is right there for you to see, floyd has clearly declined as much as pac. now you are going to argue that floyds style ages better etc etc but again i point to the hard evidence, BRADLEY AND ALGIERI VS MAIDANA x2

pacs rematch and clear victory over bradley is better then both performances over maidana put together. we all predicted maidana would be made to look absolutely stupid much like aligeri was against pac

 

have yet to meet a boxing fan that pacquiao is still prime.

 

Floyd's legacy is his 0 and his near perfect textbook boxing skills/talent.

He won't be remembered as a warrior or for his resume.

 

actually, Pac has been trash talking more than usual which is a sign of confidence, knowing he can back it up. Floyd wants to avoid digging a deeper hole for himself. If he loses after acting classy and humble, fans will not bury him. I just think Floyd is less sure about this one and wants to act respectful as to get respect if he loses. I definitely think he would be trash talking more if he were as confident as he is vs other fighters.

 

All in for manny. I don't post enough here, to welch on this, and in reality less important to me than the $200 I got riding on him.

 

It's amazing that I recognize 10 solid posters voting for Pacquiao and I've only ever heard of 2 of the guys showing up for Floyd, and one of those hardly posts anymore. Why do Floyd's cheerleaders - guys who spend their lives trolling for him on this board - have so little confidence in him?

 

I'm too shocked at the lack of Mayweather supporters. After latest camps news, it's even safer to bet on him. Paquiao is sparring with a mma guy (!) . Mayweather is dominating Judah, southpaw as fast and bigger than Paquiao.
Mayweather looks enormous, and always in the gym.
Paquiao makes karate moves in public parks in front of a bunch of random people who don't even follow boxing and a dog.

Whatever. People don't respect ban bets anyway. I'd surely do.

 

NO ONE......absolutely NO ONE is going to 100% honor this thread.

I want Pacqioua to win. And when/IF IB makes a v-thread on it, I'll put everything Ive got on it, whether it's 75 b/c Jennings beat Klitschko, or whether it's 5K or 100K.

Point being......should Pac be robbed of his 4 KDs, with Weeks calling them slips, pushes, rabbit punches or whatever, and it goes to the cards, and I lose, I would come right back as chitownfightfan1.

I mean, MVC or MVC!. Heck, there are posters on here that have taken ban bets dino%^#$ and not even logged off for a day.

This sport, and the fans of this fight are not gonna live or die by this fight.atschatschatsch

 

Basically what's at stake here is your username, joined date and number of posts.

 

Yea no one honors ban bets anymore. I was debating with someone on the Kovalev-Hopkins fight awhile back and challenged them to a ban bet and I'm pretty sure their still here.

 

A lot of the names along with myself are in the British boxing forum a lot, so I recognise quite a few, in particular those backing Mayweather

 

Nah. I'm honoring this one cause, while I love boxing, it's this fight and the possibility that drew me in to post. After May 2, or a few weeks after, I'm gonna lurk here and there and check out any big fights coming up, but no need to post.

Even if manny wins, I'm probably gonna post maybe a little more if not the amount I would if he lost, which is not at all.

 

fair enough.

but how can his talent and skills be properly gauged with his mediocre resume:?

 

Haters are something else. You guys were riding high before the fight was signed calling Floyd a duck and now that it's almost time for Manny to finally get exposed he's shot. Manny was a hypejob anyways. Doesn't matter if he's juiced, cough, prime or not. He beat guys when they were low hanging fruit. You guys are the definition of a b**ch.
