    Remember how boxing was suppose to be dead after the Tyson vs Lewis fight? lol. Yeah right! If one more novice fan tells me that the sport is dead, I'm gone catch a felony.

    That sh*t be aggravating me too man. Like if you dont like the sport, don't watch it! I'm not a fan of F.Mayweather (respect the hell out of his skills though) but that ? was not running. YOU'RE SUPPOSE TO STICK AND MOVE! Manny was not skilled enough to f with him, plan n simple, not skilled enough or fast enough.

    ? floyd dont have to sit there and get into brawls, for what??...the nig ain;t trying to end up like Frazier after his career was over. His doubters need to respect that.

    and they need to stop comparing boxing to UFC too..that sh*t irritates the f out of me, it's not the same!

    Petrocelli said that Pacquiao was examined by doctors before the fight and was proved to be physically able, but re-injured his shoulder during the bout. That the public was unaware of Pacquiao's original injury is immaterial, Petrocelli said.

    Like I said before, he re-injured his shoulder during the fight. Probably from that straight right he took from Floyd.

    Roach so full of ?

    Well, I was very concerned about that but the thing is the injury was getting better and better and better as we went along," he said on Tuesday morning at the Wild Card Boxing Club.

    "He could do a little bit more but it was still there. But I'm not a medical person but they told me if he could get that pain killer shot - like Mayweather gets in his hands - everything would be OK. But that didn't work out."

    Roach says that the injury occurred about a month out from the fight when he was sparring with Kenneth Sims."They were both throwing hooks and they caught arms and clashed. In sparring it happens all the time."

    With the way the fight played out and now the heat they are receiving for the way they handled this matter, in hindsight would it have been prudent to postpone this event?

    "Yeah," admitted Roach. "The thing is there's no way you're going to beat a guy like Mayweather with one hand. It's impossible, so the things we were told didn't come true, just way different than what we had heard. Otherwise, we definitely had to think about cancelling that fight or at least postoning it. I didn't want to see anyone go in there injured but I'll tell you, in the dressing room warming up before the fight, the hook was f***ing great but then it didn't last."

    Observers noted that Roach was strangely quiet in the corner in the second half of the fight. Roach explained - "Well, he told me that it (the right shoulder) was shot and he couldn't use it anymore and I just said,'You want me to stop the fight?'

    According to the trainer, his fighters response was - 'No, he's not that good, he can't hurt me, so just let the fight go on.'

    "I didn't think there was any threat of him getting hurt, at least in his mind, and Mayweather's not a big puncher. He wasn't really hurting him, he more or less won the fight with a jab," said Roach, who said that conversation with Pacquiao came after the fourth round.



    smh.... first arrogance then excuses to taint Floyds win

    Not sure what Kirkland's problem is with Anne Wolfe, but they have the strangest relationship. I see Kirkland taking another loss and then reuniting with her. Smh.

    what they say about other boxers they wont say about mayweather

    After watching @MR.CJ video yall think Pacman threw that flurry while floyd was on the ropes (@aka_OG sig) and was waiting for him to swing back so he could possibly catch him again? And Foyd was like nope.

    If you peep it right at the end Manny leave that right hand up in Floyds Glove and ducks his head to the right looking for an opening in Floyds defense so he could throw the straight left but Floyd aint bite.

    According to Arum Pacquiao originally injured the rotator cuff in 08 around the time of the De La Hoya fight. ? fought 6 1/2 years w/ a partially torn rotator cuff and it just so happen to ? up when he gets his ass handed to him by Floyd? This ? is comedy!

    What is the obsession with Rocky Marciano 49-0 record when Ricardo Lopez retired 51-0 and most boxing people regard Lopez as the much better fighter?

    I forget who said it, maybe Kellerman but someone was like Floyd is already better than Marciano....winning one more means nothing

    Marciano actually hurt people in the ring and still retired undefeated as a tiny Heavyweight no less. I'm not a Mayweather hater by any means but he's more of a businessman than a fighter they way he navigates the best times to fight what opponents. Marciano didn't give two ? who he was fighting, they were most likely getting KTFO anyway.
