Same here, not sure if he will win, but Mayweather has been pimped for a week now and it is tiresome.
catching it myself. Should be a damned good match. As far as Pacquiao/Mayweather, why not take the damned drug tests pac?
pretty anti-climactic, had to mute the event as the announcers were just annoying. not the greatest fight i've seen, Mayweather landed some pretty nice shots, and early on I thought Mosley might have a chance. Overall, I thought the fight was kinda boring.
Because Pac is a ***** and he knows he wouldn't even last 5 rounds without illegal substances. With or without it, Floyd would beat that *** and it wouldn't even be close... which is why I don't understand the hype around it. He will retire undefeated. No one in this generation can handle the beast.
Pacman needs to man up, get whooped, and get it over with. I don't understand the hold up. Take the drug test, you wimp.
they said during the fight that paquiao / mayweather negotiations would start monday. here's hoping it actually gets done.
What's so difficult about taking a drug test? Floyd has said it over and over... take it and we fight. That is as fair as can be. Nothing else, in fact, would be fair.
moseley did the same drug test mayweather wanted with pacman. Care to guess why pacman didn't want these same tests? FYI mayweather just beat the **** out of a good boxer. You think pacman is going to touch that.
Was just what I expected, save for Mosley rocking him in the second round. Non-competitive fight. And Mosley looked gassed pretty early on. Wish Manny would just take the blood test. Kinda hard to believe he's clean when he won't give the blood. The negotiations and all that stuff were done pretty quick last time. 'This' Pacquiao would be a much closer and more entertaining fight than this one. He's younger and far more skilled at this point than Mosley. And he doesn't gas. I'd be surprised if Floyd could knock him out regardless though.
floyd won't knockout manny but he'll beat him, probably in unanimous also or split. I don't think mosley gassed, I think he was just hurt. Mayweather nailed him really well a couple of times.
Idk why people think Mayweather would destroy Pac, esp after ton. Mosley had Floyd completely rocked in the 2nd and should of finished it. A fighter with better conditioning (Pac) or better insticts would of ended it. Couldn't believe Shane blew that one.
I don't know how after beating one of the top boxers in welterweight, and pretty much dominating him people still question mayweather. And mayweather didn't go down one because he was smart enough to keep clinching, something mosley shouldn't have allowed, and two because he has a great chin. Something mayweather has shown before.
It doesn't work that way, though. You can't just assume Pac even gets Floyd in that situation or one similar. I don't even agree with that statement to begin with; a fight lasts 12 rounds. I've seen Floyd take a big shot or two before and come right back and dominate like he did last night. He's better trained and conditioned that anyone else. Instincts or not, Sugar was not going to knock him out in round two last night even if he kept with it and landed a few more. Floyd was coming back, and we all knew it. At least I did. Ultimately, I agree that Floyd/Pac would go the distance with Floyd winning the decision, but I would be shocked out of this world if Pacman even stood a chance. But until he mans up and takes the drug test....
lol So you knew without a doubt that Floyd would come back when he was about 6 inches from touching the canvas and Mosley getting the knockdown? In that case, throw some lotto numbers out there for us.
Mosley is 38 and obviously not in very good shape, at all. Floyd won, but you're giving way too much credit to Mosley at this stage in his career.
Floyd did exactly what Mosleys trainer said he would do. Mosley caught him with some good punches, and Floyd grew teeth, sprouted wings and a tail and turned into a dragon. Floyd showed great toughness and it last night. can not doubt floyds greatness. only person who stands a chance is Manny. btw muck, Manny did agree to blood tests... explain to me what Manny could take that would be out of his blood system in less then 20 days?

Im doing nothing of the sort. Mosley destroyed margarito a younger fighter. You are just trying to discredit mosley to fit some notions about mayweather.
hgh, I don't know if it would be out of his system but there would be no more tests before the fight. And with mayweather he wanted only piss testing something that can't pick up hgh.
what do you mean he only wanted piss test? he agreed to random blood tests up to 20 days before the fight and right after the fight. there's no ped that would be gone with 20 days Sent from my Eris using Tapatalk
pretty sure what I read he only wanted piss tests. Not sure if it was after the 20 day mark or whatever, but either way it screamed hgh.
here we are both right it was a combination of both my bad: http://sports.espn.go.com/sports/boxing/news/story?id=4766171 You are correct in if the blood gets taken after, but I am not sure in how long it is detectable. Keep in mind hgh is a different ball game then steroids.
exactly. And from what I understand right now it will only show up if you are looking specifically for it in a blood test. It won't show up in piss tests.
First of all... Pacman is a REAL fighter. He is a finisher. Mayweather is the longest lasting handjob in boxing history. he gets you excited..but there is NEVER a pay off. He refused to finished Mosley because he was scared. he is terrified of losing. he takes no chances. That s why I find all this "Pac is a *****" talk so funny. The biggest ***** in boxing history is Floyd Mayweather. Pac man deserves respect because he gives us a product. he is exciting and he goes out to finish. What does it say that Floyd's signature moment is against a 38 year old washed up Mosley? In a fight he never finished? Floyd Mayweather is a disgrace and IMO owns stock in the UFC and his mission has been to bore boxing fans to death and drive them to MMA.
Mayweather pressed mosley for most of the night. No one is saying pacman sucks, but I don't think he's as good as mayweather. And pretty funny how before mosley had a chance and now he's washed up.
Fighters get old overnight. It happens really quick. I am not coming off the mountain with the tablets by suggesting that a 38 year old welterweight is probably washed up. and Mayweather stood his ground. he pressed him for about 30 seconds of round 9. Mosley then threw a hook that hit air and Mayweather crapped his pants and went back to the prevent defense.
he pressed him from the beginning thats partially why he go hit so bad in the second. and you aren't suggesting anything remarkable, problem is its convenient way to show mayweather as a ****ty fighter.
lol Sure I am. Margarito, who's also fallen off a cliff since his little hand-wrap scandle. Weird coincidence that his punching power looked absent the first fight after that was discovered, right? lol Yea, Mosley had a chance and it was better when people thought he'd come into the fight in shape. Woops. I don't think anyone would of given Mosley a chance if they knew he didn't have the conditioning to make it past the 3rd round without being gassed.
Margarito was always a good puncher, and he fell of the cliff because he can't get sanctioned dude. He has a fight scheduled coming up we will see how he does there, but I hate to break it to you, you don't get to fight for a championship on hand wraps alone. Mosley started slowing down because he was getting pressed and letting mayweather set the tempo. Like it or not mayweather pressed him, something his critics said he never does. Even larry merchant the drunk acknowledged this fact fyi. He also took some nasty shots and started backing off about the 6th round. It had nothing to do with being gassed IMO.
lol So I'm sure they had no effect in the Cotto fight, right? Like you said, we'll see how he does. But he certainly looked like **** ever since that happened. If he wasn't gassed then he was just too stupid to win. He had Mayweather on queer st with almost 2 mins left and he took his time aside from that one other right he landed. He looked noticeably slower in the 3rd and didn't even try to follow up to the previous round so I'd say whatever happened to him, happened way before the 6th. No sense of urgency, ever. So out of shape or just stupidity is to blame, imo. I don't see a fighter like Pac making that mistake. Between the Clottey fight and the Mosley/Mayweather fight, I like Pacman's odds a lot more than previously.
Hate to say it, but that was not a torrid pace out there. That must have been subliminal pressure, because Mayweather was 'barely' pressing him, if at all. No, Mosely got tired long before Floyd started pushing. And even then, it was still nothing like the way other fighters (like Pacquiao) press. Whether he was over-trained, out of shape or just old, Mosely was huffing and puffing after the second round. As for Margarito, the speed difference between he and Mosely was massive. Shane could wind up like Byron Leftwich and still land punches. IMO, once they took the cinder blocks out of his gloves, Margarito lost confidence and couldn't take shots like he was used to. That's what surprised me most that fight. That his iron chin evaporated too. Sent from my HERO200 using Tapatalk
