Floyd already talking about a rematch with Shane...

[Gandalf]

Floyd says of himself that he is "an entertainer period". Absolutely, the Baldomir fight was the finest example of boxing entertainment ever. That one had me really on my toes. Playing it safe and toying with a blown up Marquez had me ready to explode with wonder and delight too. I respect Floyd a lot as a fighter, but is he heck an entertainer. Arturro Gatti was what I call an entertainer. Someone who let it all hang out in the ring and even if he lost he gave you your money's worth. Floyd does just enough and with his defensive style is never going to be an entertainer in the way a boxer should be. As much as I respect Floyd, I actually find him quite boring to watch, especially when he's in fights that are poorly matched like Marquez and Baldomir.

Sorry for the little rant, but that comment just bugged me a little.

Mayweather style is very entertaining, he does things nobody else can do. I would rather watch that a million times than watch two limited guys bang away at eachother. Sure if PAcquiao and Cotto fight its a different story, but for the most part he is way more exciting than most fighters out there.

Mayweather is a defensive guru, but look at a guy like MArgarito who throws over a thousand ugly punches every fight, I think it looks horrible.

I see where you are coming from, but Floyd is an aquired taste. I prefer to watch someone like Toney, who has slickness but will still take an opponent into the trenches. I also love to watch Joe Calzaghe, who isn't slick, but brings the fight, has great ouput and is very versatile. Those are two contrasting styles that I really enjoy. I agree that someone like Margarito is ugly, he has a high punch output which should appeal to me, but is so crude and limited, and that actually puts me off.

Calling Mayweather boring earlier i saw. What fight of those was boring?

If we picked out his last fights which other one was boring besides Baldomir?

alright, Corley, Bruseles, Gatti, Judah, Baldomir(boring), De La Hoya, Hatton, Marquez.

Which of those besides Baldomir was boring?

I pointed out Baldomir and Marquez, but would also add the DLH fight as nothing much was happening there besides potshotting. Even the Hatton fight is tedious. Good to watch the first time, but neither fighters are throwing punches. Not a fun fight to watch really. The other fights do have their moments; especially the Gatti one. If only Floyd would open up earlier against more opponents, but he plays it so safe. That does turn people off.

[NuthaPug]

Reading you folks fall all over yourselves trying to hate on Floyd is very entertaining. He said he's an entertainer, that he has personality beyond his fighting skills. He didn't say that his identity as an entertainer was in his boxing style. You can't even respond to what he says, you have to twist it into something else, and then use it to hate on him.

Go ahead, hate on him all you want. just don't expect to be taken too seriously. You'll be hating on him after he beats Sugar shane and after he beats Manny. He'll do everything you have said he need to do to be considered and ATG and still you will find excuses to consider him less than he is.

Just understand that your credibility fades as you continue your anti-Floyd tea party.

No, I'm not a Floyd NuthaHugga and yes he is sometimes abrasive and arrogant outside the ring. So get over it. Watch him box. All that matters.

Dela Hoya and Marquez were dull, albeit impressive, fights.
