Originally posted by Kalion View PostDont be silly, Floyd was arguably P4P #1 aearly as 2003,thats 6 years ago so how was he unheard of? Where was PAC at then? Also noone knows how tickets sale are doing until fight night. If its a sell out on fight night and they didnt lower prices or anything give any discounts then dose it matter how or what rate they sold out at? Its still a sell out.
Manny and cotto only have 3000 tickets left, whereas Floyd vs JMM have 348 purchased tickets.
this wasnt even the original point of the thread, but as a floyd fan, you had to bring up his money, draw, etc. typical of you guys.

Originally posted by mathed View PostSure it's feasible but I don't think that this kind of method for figuring out the probable outcome of a fight is realistic though. I agree that DLH looked emaciated to an extent in the Pac fight but if he overtrained or undertrained then that failure rests with him and his team.
Floyd could have made DLH quit at a lower weight as well but that was not the fight I saw so I can only speculate that the same thing would happen.
The same kind of thing can be argued should Floyd beat JMM yet fail to knock him down and merely win via SD or UD. People would be saying that even at a higher weight than where Pac fought him, Floyd could not even knock JMM down while Manny knocked him down 4 times at lightweight.
I would not know how the fight may turn out given different circumstances but only give opinions about what i saw in the ring.
But I do agree that things could have been different for Floyd and DLH had Floyd fought a dehydrated DLH.

But what they dont do is what you just did and thats acknowledge that the fights where under different circumstance and if situations were reversed then the outcomes may have been completely different. i.e. PBF could have KOd DLH and pac may have loss. So basically its pointless to say PAQ wins or Paq>>>>PBF base on those 2 fights.

Originally posted by sycomantz View PostMannys accomplishments? whether people hate or not people know who is the best which is floyd, floyds undefeated, floyd has the bread, floyd will be an ATG and legend. soon as PAc gets his ass whooped hes done and yesterdays news
Originally posted by Kalion View PostYou've had to much of Pacs "Jim Jones" Kool-Aid.oth
Both Pac and PBF have accomplished much, and they both are great fighters. But to say that Pac accomplishments are 10x more than PBF's is ignorant. 2 years ago PAC was unheard of, it wasnt until his DLH and Hatton fights that he became the superstar he is right now. But there are plenty things you can say about those 2 wins that take away from thier validity. His next fight if it is against Cotto, PBF or Mosely will be his opprotunity to kill the hype and prove he is worth all the comparisons and title he has recieved as of lately.

Originally posted by sycomantz View Posthow did DLH's face look after fighting like Stevie Forbes? DLH's performance against Forbes was lame at best eventhough DLH hit forbes more times then forbes it dlh. but look at the damage DLH sustained to his face after the fight.
DLH's face didnt react to none punchers like that until he got that a*s tagged by PBF
Heh Hate to break topic but reminds me of the way Calzaghe showed how he got that ass spanked. Sometimes you can actually see it in the faces of the boxers. Who is ACTUALLY winning, no matter what you or I see. We're not in the ring so we dont know how hard and bad those punches are hitting. Sometimes the slower boxer is actually hitting harder but gets overlooked. But Calzaghes face that night looked like he got whipped on the face with a flyswatter. Same as DLH n Forbes. Thing is with PBF, He knows he is good and trains WAY too much. But i will say some of the boxers he chose were out of their prime. And btw PAc fans cmon...If u think pacs knockout was a work of art, Replay the PBF check hook replay
