Litzau does the things that Mayweather haters say most boxers should do stand and fight and he just lost a fight he could have had in the bag. Doesn't matter the respect he got, he still got an 1 on his record now. I hope he learns what fighting for the fans get you. Thats probably why people get mad at Mayweather because he DOESN'T do that and removes all doubt to give an opponent a chance to land that ONE shot.
You ca't really say what Paulie would have done because the whole world thought he would have boxed Cotto too but he didn't. Also,that's silly to say Mayweather haters,may be it's just fans who want to see more action for their hard earned money. If you pay $50 to see fights, and the guy is earning $8million for the fight, you expect to see something first and second,he has no one to blame but himself for his critics,if you're going to compare yourself to SRR,SRL etc etc then of course there are going to be higher expectations from you.
Secondly, his antics after the fight hardly endear him to the fans with his silly crying and mood swings at Merchant. I mean 1 minute I see HBO team kiss PBF's ass then the next minute,everyone's dissing on Merchant when he's doing his job and asking the right questions.
Finally,what was most dissappointing about his performance was that ok,he landed a nice shot here and there but it was not a virtuoso performance.And you talk about not giving the opponent a chance but watch the Jesus Chavez fight,the Corley fight etc etc. He stood his ground in those fights. Just because I was not impressed by the performance does not make me a hatre,because I have justified my opinion.
Sorry that was a bit off topic,I'm about to watch the Litzau fight now!
