    no , but you conveniently wait long enough for someone to kick the bullys ass and then say how you could have done it too,

    kinda like when floyd fought judah...after he was just "slapped" by a guy with 9 losses...instead of fighting margarito...wow...what a coincidence...

    damn your in denial and forget history :rofl

    JMM was 37 years old..dont give a **** who he beat 2,3 weight divisions LOWER..floyd is a WELTERWEIGHT and was pound for pound #1 fighting a 37 year old career featherweight...that had 0 fights at 140, 0 fights at 147 ...big ****ing deal....
    no matter how you slice it..DLH was SHOT...and losing 4 of his last 7 kind ****ing proves that

    and DLH should have been a favorite vs pac.....pac a former 112 pound fighter who just a few years ago was fighting at super featherweight...and dlh fought for a middleweight title... most former fly weights will NEVER be favorites to BEAT ANYONE who was a champion at 154 and foguth for a middleweight title....sorry genius

    I cant stand Mayweather, but he looked incredible last night. His right hand power was considerably stronger then its ever been and his hand speed was crazy good.

    Stylistically no he wouldn't have been. Margo is too slow and is a limited plodder. Pbf would have landed on him like rain on a tin roof it would have been Pbf baldo all over again but worse because atleast baldo had some boxing skills. Margo was never **** to begin with just a tool used by Pbf haters to try and discredit him.

    :deal I am a fan of Floyd but this new style is due to his legs fading...this is a more beatable Floyd.

    You look at Floyd now, he barely even moves that much nowadays, yet still picks his opponents apart.

    His style is difficult to deal with, he fights in mid-range, the pocket and fighters cant seem to figure out what to do. Watch Floyd closely, he always in the pocket waiting to counter on his opponents. Floyd is smart, this guy never runs out of the fuel because he fights at his pace and dictates the fight.

    Mayweather is great, but I don't agree with the title.

    I'm not sure why Mayweather is great exactly, but I know it probably has to do with his conditioning, which is directly correlated to his work ethic, which is phenomenal.

    Ortiz did get blindsided though...

    I just hope everyone came out alright.

    I said it was going to be easy work before the fight and so it turned out. Mayweather is a different level of fighter to the Victor Ortiz's of the world. Just sayin'.
