Have you noticed the Showtime/HBO excuse machine working at full power now?
« on: May 02, 2015, 10:03:12 PM »
They really have no excuse now.

One-sided fight that failed miserably to live up to what was expected.

And now Lampley and the others working really hard to convince people how a scared little pussy won a bad fight.

Exactly!  People who don't know anything about boxing find Mayweather boring...they just don't realize that they're watching probably the purest boxer/tactician ever.

no one in their right mind listens to lampley.  i could give a shit if it was 11-1 rounds.  this fight proves we need to stay away from social media driven fights.  there are obvious match ups on the board but they won't happen because of SM.

you will see fmw vs khan instead of thurman (clear #1 mandatory) or brook (IFB belt holder)

you will see manny vs a fading danny garcia instead of terrance crawford or lucas matts.

social media or dcafs as they say now will drive the popular fights, not the best, most competitive fights.

fmw vs manny isn't even a top 100 fight but as nails posted ESPn will try to push it as a Classic in 20 yrs.  

Leo Santa Cruz and his insurance salesman was a better fight. Wow!

Congrats to all of you who just made that illiterate scumbag 100 million dollars richer.  Maybe he'll buy another Bugatti that he won't drive.

If he's untouchable then he should be able to KO all of his opponents...

He supposedly KO's his sparring partners. He should bring that mentality into the ring on fight night.

^ 100% this. it should be Brook for a unification or Thurman.

it won't be Khan i don't think because he can't fight in September cos of Ramadan and that's when FMW said he's fighting.

i reckon it will be Cotto though which is bollocks.

It lived up to exactly what was expected by people who actually watch the sport. What the fuck were you expecting? A Hagler-Hearns type fight?

People need to stop expecting exciting fights from Mayweather. I don't know why he is such a massive draw because for entertainment value he is awful.

Listen ass wipe, I'm way more upset at the shitty shape Manny showed up in than Floyd's supposed "superiority". If throwing jabs from 6 feet away, 1-2 punch combinations and a grab-fest is what boxing is to you, be my guest.

I, like people who know a lot more about boxing than you and I like Tyson, am in absolute awe at FM's ability to avoid getting punched. But please, spare me the bullshit story that that is called boxing.
