    Good video. Can't really disagree with anything anyone said with exception to Skip.

      Or you may be right, and they really don't know **** about boxing. lol.
      No they don't, nor does Wilbon or Kornheiser. I still remember Bayless saying that Mayweather ran from Mosley when they fought. Oh, and who remembers both hosts on PTI state that they didn't watch the Margarito fight.

      HBO just did that deal with ESPN to try and regain all the money the lost on this event.

        In my opinion, I truly think that the only person employed by ESPN that actually watches boxing, is Broussard. Maybe Rome, too.

          That's skip bayless though. The man with an agenda with everything he talks about. His biggest fan base is probably Floyd/black athlete haters. I'm pretty sure he just wanted a reaction from Floyd/whoever else.

          I'm not defending them, I'm just saying, they always talk about how they've been watching boxing all their lives. I think he just hates on Floyd, because of Floyd's persona more than anything, so that comes off as not knowing ****.

          By the way, I don't give 3 ****s about Skip/Stephen A/Wilbon/kornheiser. Just saying, it's easy to say they don't know **** about boxing, when it's obvious their just pushing their agenda.

                Boxing doesn't pay their bills. NFL/NBA/MLB/hockey does. Their bread and butter are the 4 major American sports. I don't think they'd have time to talk about that fight. It's been like this for years upon years. In this day and age, boxing has become an underground sport. Even back then, it was only Ali/SRL/TYSON/ODLH.

                  he didnt say anything new.

                  He pretty much reiterated what everybody thinks:

                  everybody is confident of floyd beating pacquiao except for floyd himself. Floyd is not scared of pacquiao but is scared to lose to him. Big difference.

                    Are you talking about Skip and Steven A., or ESPN in general? Cause they did have segments on those fights on SportsCenter but they were small.

                      Seemed to me Larry Merchant thinks Floyd would win but is too scared of losing to try.
