That's not technical boxing, it's ****ing chicken**** boxing. Floyd hardly goes offensive, and usually is just counter punching and avoiding punches. It's completely defensive boxing. I can't stand to watch it anymore, it's ****ing super boring to watch, and his style makes him out to be what he really is, a ****ing puss.

Lets wait a month or two of him hearing how he's isn't the greatest fighter ever, and then he will give in and fight Manny. Cause EGO is huge, and he won't be able to stand the talk.

Yeah, O.K.

Floyd won't fight Manny without him agreeing to be tested, so the fight won't happen. I'm pretty sure Manny won't want to face Floyd after watching Shane get so thouroughly beaten

I don't think so. Last time this went down it's wasn't Manny's camp looking for the fight Freddie could care less, no matter what Manny is the pound for pound best fighter in the world.

You are just a Manny hater cause he's taken out every boxer you had mad respect for

And when Mayweather fight Manny, my response will be the same, Pacman will win. You ask me everytime, I give the same answer, and I have NOT been wrong yet in the 4 years you've been asking me my thoughts on an upcoming fight.

Mayweather fights a dull game my friend. He's not even close to as exciting as Manny, cause in 12 rounds Manny makes a man look like he just got jumped by 4 dudes in the back alley... Mayweather tries too hard to stay pretty, and cause he's never really hard on offense, he's not really beating the person up... he's just racking up points. lame, lame...

The only boxer I had respect for that Manny took out was Morales...Oscar just wanted the payday, Hatton was damaged goods after Floyd beat him.

You might find Floyd dull but most boxing fans don't, I personally really enjoy watching him outclass his opponents.. I guess we can agree to disagree

I really hope the Manny fight gets made, but I suspect it will never happen.

He was picking up Floyd's leftovers.

You don't mention their respective records against JM Marquez?

I am of the opinion that Manny's style is tailor made for Floyd and that Floyd will turn it into a one-sided public sparring session..I also believe that the fight will never happen because Manny won't submit to thorough drug testing. I hope I'm wrong and it goes ahead so I can enjoy watching it.

i dont like floyd, his style is boring to watch but when you watch the replays of how he tackles fighters offense, its damn scary, its almost like he can put everything in slow motion and avoid all punches then strike back with clean hits.

and yes i do agree also that manny and floyd fight will never go down, manny is simply on the juice.

take the tests as the oppenent requested, and knock his *** out, wouldnt that be even more for a ego crusher for floyd? but i guess hes got too much "pride"

You know, motorsport isn't that fun to watch unless you know about the game - then NASCAR becomes actually entertaining to watch (and having met a few NASCAR fans and having them explain the game to me, I'm not quite ashamed for bashing it so much as "no real racing" when I was younger).

Floyd Mayweather is kind of like that. It's true he never takes risks, but that's why in every sport you have hardcore fans and casual fans. Casual fans appreciate the action, hardcore fans appreciate the game

Gagan is no casual fan, he's hardcore, never misses a fight....that's why I don't understand why he doesn't appreciate Floyd. It's like he says, he never gets a pick wrong, seriously.

I don't understand how you can be a fan of pure boxing but not be a fan of Floyd???

Floyd is an olympic fighter... Not exciting at all.... he fights for points. I appreciate his hand speed seeing as he does have the fastest in the game, but Manny on the other hand fights with the intent to knock his opponent out. Always exciting to see a Pacquiao fight because you are waiting for the KO. In a mayweather fight you wait for decision... I hope this fight happens..... my .02 cents...

I think the pacquiao mayweather fight will happen either in November or early 2011 mainly because there is just way way too much money to be had in this fight and if it happens i will be going no matter what it costs me.

Possibly because he's a complete *****!

I have been a fan of boxing all my life, I watch the Mayweather fights but not because I appreciate anything about him more because I hope I get to see him knocked out of the ring. Sure he's talented but for me anyway I can't get beyond how much of a complete douchbag he is.

Floyd is the best technical boxer in the sport right now. He loves himself and money.

I know it sound corny but Manny fights with heart, he fights for boxing fans, for the sport and for his country. He's old school, he was made to go 15 rounds like the old days.

And for the people that say hes juicing.. it doesn't add up to me. You take Barry Bonds and see how big that fool got and how his homers dramatically increased. Has Manny not been knocking mother****ers out since he was a flyweight!!!?? Hes always had the power. Floyd and Manny were both 106lbs at the age of 16 so why is it so unbelievable that their around the same weight class now? Manny's knocking more people out now because hmmmmmm he actually tries to!! Hes the only fighter that can have a full meal before weigh in.

Doesn't anybody notice how much his skills have grown!? You don't get that from juicing. Compare him right now to when he fought Morales for the first time.. All he knew how to do was throw his two punch combo. He dominated other opponents b/c he was so fast and powerfull but it wasn't enough to rely on only that with future hall of famers. So what happened? Roach developed his right hand.. and now his feet movements.

He used to only dart in and out laterally, now hes darting in and out, side to side while circling his opponent.

And he only started moving up in weight when he turned 29 or so. And all hes doing now is just not dieting or losing weight. All I'm trying to say is that to me its super obvious how much his skills have improved so why arent we crediting that instead of roids?






Oh yea and Floyds a douche btw!!! lol but to tell you the truth, I don't know if he's just acting the part for promotions or if he's really like that in real life with the cameras and mics off.. doesn't matter boxing need a supervillain and Floyds the best at that!!
