Oh, for sure he's been a fantastically dominant fighter and damn exciting with it, you have to give Floyd some consideration too, he's been equally dominant though not as exciting.
Floyd doesn't dominate like Pac does. Alot of the time floyds done just enough to get the w. Cotto for instance, found another gear in the championship rnds to win on my card from being 5-5 in rounds.
All three judges gave Floyd the last 4 rounds.
And he hurt Miguel bad in the very last round, started to get him out of there but Cotto went very defensive.

Re: Will Mayweather Retire After 49 Wins?
Cotto was wobbled badly by a blazingly quick Mayweather uppercut in the final round, and then did not attend the post-fight news conference. He went to a local hospital for a precautionary check.Ricky_ wrote:koolkc107 wrote:What fight were you watching?Ricky_ wrote:

Re: Will Mayweather Retire After 49 Wins?
Why not? Its not like he is comparing himself to someone from a different era. Several guys have went unbeaten with many more wins before losing. He needs to retire when he feels the need to retire. In the end he will garner more respect retiring when he says vs stretching for the 50.
Putting the cart before the horse before even knowing he will win his next two. Guess what - its not a lock for him to win....either one. He should win but how many 38 yr olds would you bet the farm on?

Re: Will Mayweather Retire After 49 Wins?
I think he'll go 50-0 then retire, however he'll make a come back in a few years time when he's broke and get beat of people who wouldn't have a chance against him in his prime.

You are right.
History has shown us that even the greatest we've had in the sport can get old overnight in the ring.
Floyd is no different. He hangs on long enough, he'll get beat.
Re: Will Mayweather Retire After 49 Wins?
My guess is that if Floyd wins, he'll takes two or three more cupcake fights like he's used to taking and try to extend the record out farther so no one will touch it. My feeling is that no matter how or when his streak ends, someone is going to break it shortly after. We've got a bunch of undefeated boxers past the 30 win mark right now so it's just a matter of time.
If Manny wins or if the fight is a draw, then we will have a trilogy on our hands. And i really do feel that we are going to have 3 fights between these guys because no one really wants to see these two fight anyone else. If Floyd wins though, he'll just run off with his ball no matter if the decision was just or not that's why i really hope these judges treat these two as equal, champions and none of this "you have to really beat the champion to be the champion to be the champion" exists.
Some of these Floyd loving idiots are pathetic. They complain about any post that turns out to be pro Manny. Guess what idiots, he's the most popular fighter in the world by sheer numbers. People love him so obviously there's going to be a uneven split of responses. The most intriguing factor about this matchup IMO is that it's a fight between two guys that couldn't be more different. Manny clearly the white hat and Floyd the black (old west reference, not racially). The good vs the bad. Good is always going to be more popular than bad. Floyd has hit over 7 woman in his life that we know about. Manny has saved lives not ruined them. There's a clear and important reason these posts are one sided to Manny's favor. He's not a woman hitthing thug luck to have a gift like Floyd. So stop trying to make everyone love Floyd. He's a great skilled fighter who is just a pathetic human being.

As I clearly illustrated in a previous thread (that was subsequently locked because one of the mods here is a Pac fan) Manny is no Angel.
And I left some of the worse things out.

If Floyd does retire this year, who will he be ducking?

Re: Will Mayweather Retire After 49 Wins?
What are cupcake fights and who are the cupcake fighters? All this crap about Floyd being the black hat and Manny the white hat is such a farce; Pacquiao isn't an angel no matter how well the picture has been painted for you easily brainwashed types have been mislead to believe.caldo2025 wrote:My guess is that if Floyd wins, he'll takes two or three more cupcake fights like he's used to taking and try to extend the record out farther so no one will touch it.

Manny's sh*t stink too but you guys can't smell it because you have your heads too far up his a$$. He isn't the most popular fighter in the world, he's just the one people like the most because they've been bamboozled just like you have, Floyd by far is still more well-known than he is and the PPV numbers reflect who is the more popular fighter anyway.
Floyd fans do not love Floyd's persona, what we like about him is his abilities in the ring.
Re: Will Mayweather Retire After 49 Wins?
It must be hard work to be so negative; how many of us have lived exemplary lives and is it our business the weaknesses and foibles of boxers we watch on TV?
Neither of the two are likely to be saints and both are excellent boxers at the peak of the sport.
I just hope the bout is a good one, I hope we've not been sold a pup.

Re: Will Mayweather Retire After 49 Wins?
You know, this should be the platform that you run on with this Floyd Campaign that you've been undertaking. Now THIS, I can clearly understand because I do consider myself a Floyd Fan in this respect. But, it's everything else that Floyd pushes out there that puts that X on his back in public opinion. It's a fact that most people buy Floyd's fights to see him finally lose. It's the same reason why we paid the money to see Tyson back in the day. Manny clearly has skeleton's in his closet but has reformed his life. The public see's Floyd push his money in our faces, the huge gambling bets, the ugly women he has hanging all around waiting to catch the change falling from his pockets and the cases against him and time spent in jail for abuse against women. Most notably, beating a woman in front of her children. An act he spent time in jail for. The public sees Manny's dedication to his people, his religion and public service. His commitment to give back clearly overshadows the gambling, drinking and womanizing he did for a stage of his career.Floyd fans do not love Floyd's persona, what we like about him is his abilities in the ring.
In the end, you are never going to change public opinion in this fight. The only thing you will be able to do most likely, is gloat at the outcome of it. But even after they pry the gloves off, no matter what happens, Manny will always be more beloved than Floyd. Always.

Re: Will Mayweather Retire After 49 Wins?
Maybe you meant "anatomy"! Yeah if your head is TOO FAR up his a$$ (past the anus, past the rectum/rectal area) then you will be past the point of where the nasty smell is at, so it is correct to say too far up his A$$ but it isn't about biology when you are referencing a part of a person's body<<<that's anatomy. If you are referencing the fecal matter part of this equation then you are referencing biology of which wasn't my point because you are too far above it to smell it.Ricky_ wrote:KBB wrote:Manny's sh*t stink too but you guys can't smell it because you have your heads too far up his a$$.
