It's beyond obvious you have been following boxing for only the past couple years.

Please learn more about the sport before you give your uneducated opinion.

Maybe the Yankees, Red Sox, Dodgers and Cubs should get to set MLB rules since their games have higher ratings?

This is where I think boxing is a fucked up sport. Rules should be set by boxing, not negotiated by fighters. I also believe the majority of the purse should go to the winner of the fight.

Pacman has more stipulations than Floyd for the last fight they tried to setup...

A 38 year old who's never lost from a KO. Pac needed 12 against Clottey and looked worse than Clottey after the fight.

You don't know what you're talking about. Please stop.

It's official. You just started following boxing and have nothing to stand on when it comes to a real boxing conversation.

Let me know how much you want to bet on the Mayweather/Pacman fight.

I wasn't picking sides. They both need to cut the **** and fight.

My words below could apply to any professional boxer, not just Floyd and/or Pac.

But that's how boxing is. There aren't universal rules that could cover all the weight classes. There are weights/brands of gloves/different venues/ring size/promoting schedules.

Boxing will always have the fighters negotiating, and that's why PBF's request of legit testing for a change wasn't outrageous and did many Pacman look shady.

wow, didnt know manny looked shady when he never tested positive for anything...but didnt mayweather use Xylocaine? a substance that banned in alot of states.. LMAO..

and mayweather has the ***** to say he wants to be on the same playing field..LMAO...GTFO!!!

well let the fight happen in manila, we can have another thrilla in manila but i bet floyd wont allow that huh? wouldnt that request be the same and legit as asking for olympic tests?

2 Slow has Ali ever asked for drug tests? i mean floyd is saying hes greater than Ali right? LOL!!

I understand. I'd just like the rules to be more set than they currently are, so there are less excuses made.

I want to see a fight. I think PBF will probably agree to the 14 day cutoff of blood tests.

Mayweather fucked up the first few rounds with Mosley, trying to fight him. He had to switch back to his usual defensive counter mode, and after that he started doing work.



The difference between Pacquiao and Mosley is the speed, angles, and variety of combos he puts together. Yes Flloyd is a great boxer with his counter-punching style, but the x factor is if flloyd could counter and keep pacquiao at bay for 12 rounds, he wont knock him out; so the only way he will win is if he beats him majority of the rounds. So its a toss up 50/50 depending on both fighters game plans.

All the papers were signed and everything was ready to go for the Money/Pacman fight until it came down to the olympic style drug testing. That is when Pacman backed out and that is why Mosley was given the chance to fight Floyd. Floyd/ Mosley was the first fight in the U.S. to follow that type of drug testing and now that they both did it and passed it, it is in Pacman's court to follow in their footsteps and step up to the challenge of fighting Floyd. I see this fight happening in the future because Pacman is now pretty much backed into a corner and he needs this fight to prove that he is not using illegal substances... just my opinion.

Pacman set the ring size, glove size and weigh in penalty. Floyd would normally not agree to such small gloves and such a small ring. But he did to make the fight happen.

You really don't know what you're talking about and it's getting old.
