Psalm 144: Blessed be the LORD my Rock, who trains my hands for war, and my fingers for battle
Zab knocked him down...it was a no call.
Your source? During the Hatton 24/7 series it just looked like he was tired after hard session. People don't think he has heart, but he trains so hard that in the fight he doesn't have to push himself.Originally Posted by BoomBoom
I don't know why but somethings telling me to do this.
PBF
Official knockdowns: 1 - PBF punched Carlos Hernandez with his right hand and it hit Carlos on top of his head. This cause PBF pain in his arm and hit left glove touched the canvas. Referee Grable began to count out PBF.
Push: 2 - PBF and Genaro both pushed eachother this was not ruled a knockdown.
Not official: 1 - PBFs glove touched the canvas vs. Zab but it was not ruled a knockdown.
hernandez didn't knock him down. mayweather touched the canvas because he hurt his hand although zab did

THAT WAS PROB MORE ENTERTAINING THEN A FEW OF MAYWEATHERS LATEST FIGHTS LOL
Who cares about sparring anyway? I mean there are all kinds of clips with people getting one upped in sparring. I mean one that comes to mind is Soliman and Kessler. I mean Soliman was schooling Kessler and everyone said it dont friggin matter its sparring and you dont know what techniques people are working on. Same as the supposed Paul Williams vs Margarito. Anyone could see that Mayweather in this clip was horribly out of shape. BIG DEAL he is the best PFP#1 fighter in the world today bar none Originally Posted by woodzo
The only time I ever saw Floyd in any kind of potential trouble was against Chop Chop, even then he showed great heart and resiliency
The only time i can even remember Mayweather being cut was early in his career by Jesus Chavez by a head butt and no it isn't the Jesus Chavez you lot are thinking about its another Jesus Chavez.
I remember Mayweather having bloody nose vs Burton aswell.
I always think about those past wars that PBF was in and people say that he wont dig in with HattonOriginally Posted by Pernell "Sweet Pea" Whitaker
Floyd has battled adversity before and overcame
I have watched most of Mayweather's fights and he has dug deep in plenty of fights.Originally Posted by JT Rock
Burton
Chavez
Castillo
Ndou
Corley
Just to name a few and i can name over 10+ fights of Mayweather's that were exciting. When people say all of his fights are boring thats when i can tell they have seen only his fights with Oscar, and Baldomir and really and truthfully they are talking out there a**![]()
Looking at floyds sparring knock down record is a huge stretch, people really hate him that much ?? There's enough on the surface for people not to like for those that don't, but what he does in sparring is a bit much.

I hear a lot from different people from different gyms but I dont want to get into specifics. It is from a credible source though I will say that. Also the man that knocked him down was a former middleweight champion and no it wasnt Hopkins.Originally Posted by JT Rock

Holy shit...this thread has become hillarious.
Danny G...you really do kill me...I've never seen anyone hate on a fighter so much that it becomes almost childish.
Really.
You consider a man doubling over in pain from fracturing his hand & touching the mat a knockdown?
I consider a knock down as an ass planted on the canvas by the force of another man‘s punch or the accumulation of many...as would most boxing fans.
If you want to talk about first career knock downs...I'd look back to the second round of Cotto vs Torres...but I’m sure that you’ll talk your way outta that one, huh? Probably some mysterious invisible banana peel or something like that?
The thing is...being a fan of Cotto's...I can honestly say...that he got knocked down & not have issues with it. I can even say that I was impressed with his win over Corley...as shakey & dubiously early plucked as it was.
I'd do the same for Floyd...but I really don't need to because Floyd's never been officially knocked down & he's rarely left much doubt for his abilities or the outcome of the bouts.
Exciting? Certainly.
To name a few...Floyd vs Arroyo, Manfredy, N'dou, Augustus, Corrales, Sosa, Hernandez, Castillo, & Juuko were all exciting & pretty much a showcase of Floyd's talents. The majority of those ended in knockouts also.
The Judah & Oscar fights were also exciting...but I can see where many were disappointed because Floyd stayed on the offensive for the bulk of the bout. The point that I'm trying to make is...although both fighters totally differ in style...Floyd is no less important to his fans as Cotto's is to his.
It's just a bit odd to listen to a boxing fan that looks past things of that nature & grasps on to a mit touching the mat.![]()
Never beg a 40 dollar hooker...specially after she's just turned down your mom's credit card!!
Than what your saying is pretty much nonsense and means nothing since you can't provide a source other than hearsay.Originally Posted by BoomBoom
