by the way the hype sucks, floyd is not doing a good job trying to act hard and tough.
THANK YOU
i was beginning to think i was the only one who realized this
Re: So fricking angry at Mayweather !!!
I'm sorry but all of you retards need to realize that boxing now ah days is all about selling fights and making money. That is all that Mayweather is doing trying to make money. Yes he is the pound for pound champion, yes he talks a lot, but let's just take a look at his record............ if you haven't answered by now it is 37-0-0 with 24 KO's. I mean I'm not his biggest fan but that kind of record deserves respect, so give it to him.
Re: So fricking angry at Mayweather !!!
Threads like this crack me up. If you're getting angry at his antics, and you're so sick of Floyd bragging that you just want to see Oscar shut him up..... then you're reacting EXACTLY THE WAY FLOYD WANTS YOU TO REACT.
This is the whole point of all this promotion. Nothing is a more guaranteed seller than a fight that has a good guy/bad guy angle. Oscar is the respected, veteran fighter, a role he plays very well, and Floyd is the brash, cocky, arrogant undefeated champ, a role he plays very well.
These guys are doing a great job promoting the fight, and Floyd is doing the vast majority of the work. Run an article search on the promotion of this fight, and the vast majority of the articles are about Floyd. He's doing a great job in getting people talking about this fight.

In Gordy's defense he is not the only one...I don't care how good you are Mayweather has gone too far...His antics are not even funny...If they were amusing to anyone but himself it would be a diffrent thing but he is just an a**....it disgraces the sport...especially when a man claims to be the best the sport has to offer....Floyd is physically talented you can not take that away from him but he in no way acts like a champion....Floyd wants to be the Ali show like when Ali would put bear traps on opponents lawns...problem is Floyd does not have the carisma or the personality to pull such things off...nor does he have the bad guy image to play off of....
i agree with u man.. nobody said floyd is not good.. most of us we're saying that if he says hes that good and hes the best that boxing has to offer.. then why run the whole fight.. he ran against baldo who's footwork was like stuck in mud.. come on man.. really.. if u call urself the best.. shut your mouth and fight the fight... make people call you the best.. dont lift your own chair
Well said josef4334, right on the button :-). We certainly recognize Mayweather's skill ... he's a great boxer. But if you want to be called THE best, you have to fight like THE best. Running around is not exactly the kind of fight MOST people want to see.
Re: So fricking angry at Mayweather !!!
I want to point something out here...this fight sold out in the first day...actually within 3 hours of the ticket stock going on sale here in the United States.
I don't give two shits where you are...that's fast.
NONE OF OSCAR'S FIGHTS HAVE EVER DONE THAT.
NONE. NOT TITO, HOPKINS, OR MOSLEY.
That says something.
This ain't all about Oscar people. Floyd pulled the show on this one too. Like him or not...Floyd does pull rank here. Oscar's the sell...but he ain't the full pull. Oscar is grand...believe you me...I'm a fan. Love the man...but where this rant goes wrong, where it show's personal begrudgement is this...Floyd is not the embodiment of everything wrong or bad within boxing...it's that he's acting like such a tool.
I have no issues with that.
Floyd is a different type of human being than I am...or most are.
That's where the ball falls & that's where it lands & stays.
Now...anyone that says Floyd embodies the bad of boxing? That's re-gotdam-dickulous.
Floyd's the embodiment of what's great in boxing.
The line gets fuzzed there by many. Watch & learn & stop listening with your heart...use your head instead.

Re: So fricking angry at Mayweather !!!
I agree with most of what you said Wack except Floyd is the embodiment of what is great in boxing? You'll need to elaborate on that one my man. Thats a huge statement to make!

I'll go out on a limb and say, he was probably eluding to PBF fundamentel Skills and high level of technical excellent... He epitomizes the very definiton of Boxing....
Of course Wacks dosent need me to speak for him ;D

Gotdam right Wacko don't need no JT speakin for him...but you hit it on the head...so we'll letcha slide on that one. Heh heh heh. :coolclick:
As I stated in the long winded post earlier...Floyd is a smokin turd of a human being in my eyes...but he's a fantastic BOXER & that's what I look at at the end of the day...because #1: I don't know him. #2: I don't hang with him. #3: I don't care to do either.
I just want to see him work the ring as always.
I want to say this also...anyone that makes a judgement on the man outside of the ring & focuses on the fighter inside...what the fwock?
Oscar's no saint. He's fwocked around on his wife, is rumored to have some youngin's outta wedlock, & blah blah blah.
Now...I'm a happily married man...I've done some things in my days prior that most people wouldn't respect...but this aint politics...this is boxing...not "Who's the Man Outside the Mat". For that arguement's sake...I wouldn't want to hang with Oscar either.
These men are fighters & showmen. What they do outside of the ring is not as vital inside of the ring.
Floyd is right...boxing does need bad guy's.
When Hopkins vs Oscar came off...Hopkins was pulling the very same shit outta his ass. Mayorga too. Mayorga was insulting Oscar's wife & manhood & children.
Come on people...it's a sell. If you can't see it...again...you take it too personally.
As I said...I don't agree with it...nor do I condone it...but it is a show & these men are going to the mat to sort it all out.

Um... didn't Hatton beat Kostya Tszyu the undisputed champion who unified a division? Does Floyd have any scalps like that?

Ok,I begrudingly agree that technique and skill wise,the guy is at the pinnacle for sure. Anyone can see that. The rest of the post,I TOTALLY agree with. It annoys me alot when he says things like he is the greatest etc because he is nowhere near close BUT,all the personal stuff,the family issues,wife beating etc,I neither agree with nor condone but again,as you states,it's none of my concern. I'm not going to meet the guy,I'm not attached to him in any way,I just watch him to admire his skills in the ring. So you're totally correct. And yeah,all this stuff,trash talking etc is to sell the fight.
I'm being too nice to Floyd today though,feels weird!! Thats like 5 positive posts about him in a row!

I think it's a bit like when people say "styles make fights". If Oscar was fighting whoever it would sell truckloads. If Floyd was fighting whoever then it would sell pretty well too, perhaps not the same level though. The fact that Oscar is fighting PBF is what is selling the tickets so fast. I don't think it matters what role PBF plays in the promo it would have sold due to the interest in the matchup for so long prior to the announcement. PBF seems to play this arrogant role as it is him. His mouth is 2 steps ahead of his accomplishments. He has fought good fighters and done very well, he is very skillful and fast, however a real P4P #1 would or should fight the best of the best and win. Even if he wins this one there will still be doubts due to Oscars age and infrequent fights over the last part of his career. Just like there are over many of his victories.

No shit, right? I was going to ask if you had broken into someone's "joy-juice still" or liquor cabinet. ;D
