    You dont know **** all mate, Of cource boxing is fighting. Back in the day look at the gloves they used and how battered they got. Its a fight with gloves and a set of rules which over the years have changed for health and political reasons. Boxing has become so scripted and dramatised as mentioned earlier. Theres always alot of talking, alot of promotion alot of drama, its turning into a soap. In the old days it was a case of fighting who you were given , the old matches where KO only wins. How can you say thats not fighting. You know nothing and you speak alot of ****
    OK Jackass! First learn to spell before you talk **** to me! You contradicted yourself because in fighting there are no rules you gay moron! Boxing in the old days as you called it was considered a gentleman's sport. It was never the same as fighting. What kind of fighting do you see on the streets with gloves and referees. My comment was meant to imply that there are boxers and there are fighters that box. Floyd,Sweet Pea,Ali,Leonard and Klitschko are more like boxers. Hagler,Cotto,Margarito,Aaron Pryor are more like fighters that box. Nothing is wrong with either style. As for your comment about boxing being scripted, once the bell rings there is nothing scripted about what happens in the ring. It's not like wrestling(professional) where you know the outcome and there is a plot. Obviously this thread is above your menial level of intellect. You fail to see the difference and you're completely unable to articulate your opinion.

        If cotto got beat by margarito on saturday night that would give floyd the perfect reason to come back and avoid fighting him. I think floyd would beat margarito pretty comfortably with his usual 'hit and run' style. He wouldn't be able to do the same with cotto. I'm sure floyd will be rooting for a margarito win on saturday night. Respect to cotto though I have never heard him 'call out' mayweather or ever even dierespect him. The guy is pure class!

          "Chicken" Floyd will always be remembered as a coward who ducked anyone he thought would have a chance of defeating him.

            He is going to be for Cotto, no doubt in my mind. I said before even if Marga should win this one it doesn't mean **** for him. If you beat some1 who positioned himself on top because of the opponnents he fought gets beat by a contender it doesn't mean that he gets his spot. Look back in history there are a lot of ''upsets'' bo no1 of these dudes became stars... they beat the best but it doesn't mean they get their spotlight. For May it's only interesting if Cotto wins... Cotto is on the rise.

            I agree that Marga would be an hit and run style of fight. Cotto has a lot of tools. But in the end I don't see Cotto beat him either. If you break it down all of Cotto's boxing skill is out the window. If he wants to box May outboxes him easily. Cotto has to fight in a way like the Judah fight. The problem here is that Cotto is a one handed fighter. His right hand lands but his only real punches are the ones that come with the left. He also not has the lateral foot speed (like a Hatton) to catch up with him often times enough to hurt him. It's not like Cotto knocks you out with one punch he needs a lot of punches and I don't see him catching up with May. So Cotto is definitely the man who has earned the right to fight him and also has skills... but in the end every body who has a clue about boxing and is not a fanatic of Cotto or May will tell you that. Everything has to be put in perspective and every fight has to be fighten... that's why we wanna see it... but still I see no reason why Cotto should be any different then the others... the fight has to happen but until it happens it's jokable that May is afraid of Cotto. Skills ain't afraid... they wan't to get paid

              You will always remember him like that...

              So nobody had the chance of beating May? Corrales in his prime and the right weight class would have given Cotto all he can handle. Castillo in his prime would have given Cotto all he could handle. Jesus Chavez would give Cotto a lot of problems... we saw how Zab Judah busted him up... DLH would be very hard for Cotto to beat... Ricky Hatton in the right weight class would give Cotto a lot of problems and and and I could continue on... only because he make it look easy doesn't mean they are easy. Only because everybody else has problems with their opponnents and May don't doesn't mean that he ain't fought contenders. Yes... he never fought some1 who had a chance to beat him... but that's cuz nobody has a chance to beat him.

                A sidenote... how many did Manny get offered 10 Million? This is the biggest fight that you possibly can make when it comes to names and Manny gets 10 Million?

                I think you now finally see how bogus this 8 Million for the Margarito fight was. A no PPV fight with Margarito unknown... and then 8 Million??? That's what I call basic common sense. Even against a legendary mexican fighter and on PPV he would not made that money... but good fairytale Mr. Arum

                  Cotto, Margarito, SSM, PW, all have a chance to beat Floyd...

                      Yeah 4 sure... so the whole pot in DLH-Pac is 30 Million. So a fight with Margarito, not on PPV against Floyd who not fought DLH at that time should have made 8 million alone for Floyd??? What are you dreaming about... I also not insulted any1 here... so why you got to insult me??? I know what I'm talking about, believe me... but it's good that the ppl who should respond respond to it... And what was the split in the Mosley fight (Mosley was offered 1 Million and a few bucks) Margarito 90% and Mosley 10% or what... big time dreamer *lol*

                      Yeah... everybody has a chance to beat every1 when they step in the ring with him... so whats the point... I was referring to another post... if you have no idea what your talking about... just shut up, honk
