Gotta love how all day certain posters have been demanding Floyd's pre-fight medical form thinking they're brilliant super sleuths. Get it. Find absolutely nothing they were hoping to find (or not find)...then still try to pass it off as some smoking gun anyway

Originally posted by La12 View PostHolding is a foul in boxing. Points get taken away if you keep it up, so fighters don't stink out the fight. Floyd gets away with it though, because he is a protected fighter. Fans don't know the rules and think it's ok to hug like Floyd does, to avoid ever facing aggression on the ropes. They think the ref is supposed to just let Floyd off the hook for it every time, and even help him fight that fight by breaking the fighters right away, and not ever asking for them to ever fight out. He just resets the fighters as soon as Floyd grabs, essentially taking Pacquiao right off him - right when Pacquiao worked to get him where he needs him. This was making Pacquiao waste his time, by putting Floyd back on the ropes again, and again, with no use. "Holding and deliberately maintaining a clinch" is a foul in boxing. You lose points for it, and you can be disqualified for it. The ref is not supposed to help facilitate you breaking the rules of boxing - which exist to ensure that nobody can do what Floyd actually did. That was not boxing, that was complete bull**** and the rules of boxing do not condone that at all. So-called boxing fans just don't know the damn rules though. Rather than throwing the book at Floyd, Bayless (the ref) let him get away with it all night. That's why this fight ******. Anybody who can run and shoot a jab would have a world title too, if the ref let them do what Floyd did in every fight. Problem is they can't. Amir Khan for example get points taken for much less holding, and people call it what it is, and give him a lot of grief for it - and any Amir Khan fight is so totally insignificant compared to what this fight was. When Floyd does it though, even in the fight of the century? ****** Floyd Mayweather fans call it a masterclass. Oh they don't know what the rules are, but they have the audacity to pretend they know what a masterclass is.
Must we forget the glory of boxing is when the winning boxer after a big win lifts his arms and applauded by the crowd for a job well done.
Sadly, no glory was given to Floyd since hugging contest went center stage that night.. Job not well done lol
Floyd should learn a thing or to from Spartans lol
'To SPARTA!' - now those are real warriors of men.
And to this day still Floyd still being booed from every corner of the globe. No glory will be given to someone who hugs and run.. Real warriors gets the glory. That's the essence of a gladiator. Floyd will never get it.. He is not cut in the same cloth.. This guy should now be free tv lol
Boring fighters don't belong in ppv.. Watch how bad his numbers will be on his next fight. Floyd has fooled fans for the last time in the biggest stage ever.
Time to retire.Last edited by Spoon23; 05-20-2015, 07:00 PM.

Empty win, hallow, doesn't count.
Uncle roger Mayweather says it best-
ROGER MAYWEATHER: ***8220;FLOYD***8217;S LEGACY NEEDS A MANNY PACQUIAO REMATCH. CLOSE THAT DOOR IN TERMS OF VICTORY***8221;
Nothing lost nothing gained.. Roger knows who put the hurt in the hurt game that night and it wasn't his nephew.. Obviously he wants respect for his son. And earning it needs convincing.
Floyd didn't convince anyone that night including his uncle trainer..Last edited by Spoon23; 05-21-2015, 06:51 PM.

Hmmm...I don't see any asterisk on BoxRec. I see 118-110; 116-112; 116-112 UD12 Mayweather.
