The Official Boxing Discussion Thread

as you all probably know by now, i am a big big boxing fan. im always looking for good discussion on current boxing news. this forum is a little overrun by MMA and UFC..and i am fine with that, but personally not to big of a fan.
So...
the obvious question right now is....will Mayweather-Pacquio be the next fight on the docket, scheduled tentatively (for Manny, he will fight in november, opponent TBA) for November at Cowboys Stadium.
I think the fight can happen, but Manny would have to agree to blood tests. His stance of not taking blood tests inside 2 weeks to the fight led to the match not happening previously.
think about this, Mayweather, the self proclaimed Money man, already agreed to a 50/50 split of PPV $$$...and that is UNHEARD of from him. He always gets at least a 60/40 cut from his PPVs. That to me says how willing Mayweather actually is for this fight. But his insistence of the strict Olympic Style Drug tests is just enough to keep Manny reluctant (so far). the negotionation process is going to be long and this could very well be the biggest fight in the history of the sport, again...If it happens.
---Kahn vs. Malignaggi--- Great Britian import Amir "King" Kong routed brooklyn bad boy Pauli "Magic Man" Malignaggi tonight at Madison Square Garden."
Lots of trash talking leading up to this bout...but Amir Kahn, fighting in his first bout in the US, used his 4 inch height advantage and reach to soundly beat up Malignaggi. TKO in the 11th. Kahn was defending his Super Welterweight Championship of the World at 140 lbs.

I was surprised by how much bigger Foreman looked at the weigh ins.
I think Miguel's fights with Pac and Marg took alot out of him.
Its fantastic that they are having this at Yankee stadium.

such a weird fight. i have never seen a fight stopped by a corner throwing in the towel, only to have the request denied by the ref and the fight continue.
it was clear that Foreman was injured and i am shocked the ref let the fight go into the ninth round. Cotto was on his A game, dominating with his jab and controlling the pace of the fight. Foreman was simply debilitated, he couldn't plant or move laterally. it killed him.
big win for Cotto and a huge bounce back fight. should be interesting to see where he goes from here. I have heard rumblings of a possible Pacquio-Cotto II if the mayweather/pac fight doesn't happen. this to me would be a huge disappointment.

I'm a HUGE Cotto fan, but Pac is just a terrible match up for him. Cotto vs Mayweather is the fight that needs to be set up. Cotto is a LOT stronger and has better handspeed than the decrepit Baldomir that Floyd ran from.

Big fight tonight. Amir Khan vs Danny Garcia on HBO. I'm actually somewhat surprised that this is not PPV. Khan's a pretty sizable name and Garcia is undefeated (23-0 or something like that).

Would they match up Garcia with Manny or Floyd next? Doubt it, but he'll certainly be in the discussion. Keep in mind that had Khan won this fight like he was favored to, there was considerable thought that he was going to be next in line for Floyd's post prison card.
And considering Garcia just took him to the shed...why not? Personally though I think he would get slaughtered by either, but it would be a nice $$$ draw nonetheless. On the surface that appeared to be a destruction of Amir Khan (which it pretty much was)...but if you look at the blow that sent Amir spiraling out of control -- it was a pure blind shot by Garcia. He wasn't even looking at Khan. He just fired wildly in an exchange and happen to hit the jackpot.

I think Garcia would have to change weight class to fight Mayweather or Manny.
I suppose anyone would for that kind of payday.

Garcia came in at 141 last night. Pac/Mayweather both fought at 147 in their last bouts. He'd have to move up, but barely.
The amazing thing is how much combined money that both Ortiz and Khan have collectively lost in the past 3-5 weeks. I mean we're talking like 15 million. Ortiz, had he won, would have had a guaranteed PPV HBO bout with Alverez. Khan would have had a better than 50% chance at a Mayweather card.
Now they're both completely starting from scratch. Boxing is a brutal, man. There's no "regular season" like basketball, football, or baseball to recover from.

Yeah. I got to hang out with a professional boxer awhile back. No one famous at all but a dude who keeps his lights on doing nothing but fighting. I respect that a lot. You gotta be one tough motherfucker to make it in that game, no matter what level you're on.

Absolutely. Fuck, even the journeymen, or "tomato cans" if you will -- it's a brutal, brutal existence. Take this guy for example.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reggie_Strickland
Reggie Strickland. 66 wins, 276 losses. TWO HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-SIX losses. But all professional bouts...none of those amateur. Can you imagine how much this guy's head got beat in so he could bring home a check? He would fight as many as 9 bouts a month, and sometimes fight 3 fights within four days.
And people might laugh hysterically at the number of losses...but at the end of the day, the guy still won 66 fights at the professional level.

That Khan KO was nasty!Props to Garcia.His dad is a fucking tool but the kid got skillz.
I like Garcia and all...but he aint ready for a Pacman fight amd def def not ready for Floyd.Khan landed with ease it seemed and i had him up untill he got knocked down.Floyd woulda KOd Garcia early imo.
Garcia should fight Peterson next or i think the best fight would be with Brandon Rios.That would be a slug fest:)
For khan i think he needs to depart ways from Roach.I just dont see his fighters getting better really.Peter Quillen yes but that guy is a FREAK.

No doubt. I can't fucking wait for the Sergio-Chavez fight. Fuck...it sucks we have to wait for another fucking month. And how about Andre Ward - Chad Dawson?!?! That's another sweet bout. Then Manny versus whoever the fuck November 11th.
Fun shit coming up.

Fucking A. That fight would be the shit.

Floyd's power is underrated, I agree. I just think Manny has more (even if it's somewhat slightly) power. What separates Floyd from Manny IMHO is that Floyd is a superior, pure technical boxer. Pac is more of a fighter than a boxer.
But if (GOD WILLING) it ever happens...I think it would be a GREAT fight. A lot seem to think it would be a one sided Mayweather decision. I'm not so sure about that.

But anyways, that's an argument for another day. Fuck all of them. Bob Arum, Floyd Mayweather, and Manny Pacquiao. They can all eat a dick for not coming close to an agreement to give the entire global boxing public the most heavily anticipated fight of our generation.

idk...ward/dawson could be a boring fight...both are pretty defensive minded.I go with Ward on that one.
I wonder what the odds are on the Sergio fight.I hope Sergio punks him.They are saying if he wins a 154/157 fight with Mayweather could be a real possibility.
Those are my #1/#2 on my p4p...would be an awesome fight.
I hope Pacman fights Bradley again and gets the W he was robbed of.If he fights JMM for a 4th time...idk those are great fightas but risky for Manny.he needs to get dem belts back and set up for Mayweather.

I think Sergio will stroll Chavez. Nothing against Chavez, but Sergio is just THAT good. And man, a Sergio/Floyd fight would be epic. Epic. It would be right there with a Manny/Floyd match up in my eyes. I mean if it was behind at all for me...it would be a sliver.

So Bob Arum and Pacquiao are supposed to get together in a day or two to decide who Manny is going to fight November 11th.
It's supposed to be between a Bradley rematch or another Marquez bout. That would be number 4 between Manny and Marquez for those keeping count. Does the boxing public really want to see ANOTHER Marquez match up? Sure, the first three were all tremendously competitive -- but a fourth?! Seriously? And the Bradley fight, for all its controversy and drama after it, the actual fight itself was pretty tame and boring.
Isn't there another option out there? And to top it off there's rumblings about another Mayweather/Cotto fight. I mean it was actually a pretty good fight through the first half or so of the match, but ultimately Floyd won like 8 or 9 rounds of that fight. Does anybody think the outcome will be different the second go around for Cotto? Cotto's just too slow for Mayweather.
Too bad these pussies (both of them) can't agree on shit. Instead they keep feeding the public rehashes and reruns of other average fights when the one the public really wants...will never get.
Fuckers.

I actually tought the Cotto/Mayweather fight was great from start to finish.A rematch would have the same outcome tho.
there just aint too many options for Mayweather..other than Pacman really.He would destroy Bradley imo.
If khan didnt get KOd he was suppose to go oversease and fight him which woulda made HUUUGGEE numbers...lol scratch that tho.
Lets pray to the gods that Sergio whoops Chavez and Floyd takes Sergio at 154/157:))..and he he somehow loses i think a Alverez/Mayweather fight could happen too at 154.

There was a guy from Cleveland, last name Guesha or something that should have appealed his decision as well. Boxing comittee has it out for team USA

Sheeeeeyat, with all of the HBO coverage on Martinez/Chavez & Ward/Dawson, I almost forgot about the Canelo-Lopez bout. Damn!! What a month. I'm really afraid that Canelo is going to walk through Lopez (although many thought that when Josesito fought Ortiz), but I will be pulling HARD for Lopez.

Yeah that was a bad move. Although I'm guessing anybody with skinny pockets and Showtime will have an easy decision -- no Sergio/Chavez and you still get a really quality, free (well free if you subscribe to Showtime) fight. But anybody with the extra funds is gonna go HBO PPV.
My plan is to get the Martinez/Chavez fight, and then DVR the Canelo/Lopez bout. I hope they don't say anything about the Showtime result during the PPV fight (which I highly doubt they would).

BTW, did you hear how Sergio is training in Oxnard, CA and got like some serious death threats over the weekend? They were so spooked they hired full fledged security teams to tail him now until he's done training.
Dude. Oxnard?! The fuck, Martinez. That hood is 100% Mexican. of course they're going to want to fuck with you...you're fighting one of their heroes.

Watched Face Off, bro. Fucking epic. I will say this: Chavez didn't seem as intimidated as I thought he might. He was quick and confident with his retorts. His confidence level seems to be pretty good.
But Martinez just has that look...like he KNOWS for a fact that he will demolish Jr.

Hi, I'm a big boxing fan too.
Did you catch Gennadiy Golovkin's win over Grzegorz Proksa? Impressive.
Where the hell has this guy been? I'd love to see him fight Mayweather.
It's also great that the guy sounds like Borat.

Khii, Golovkin is ridiculously impressive. And he has a damn good resume, too. Like Dolo said he has a lot of name building to do, but fuck. He has the legit skills to be a PPV star one day.
He needs to shore up the defense a little bit but his boxing skills and pure power are ridiculous. Sky is the limit.

Yeah, I don't actually see this guy fighting Mayweather, I was just wishing out loud last night.
That being said, I don't really think that Floyd/Pac will ever happen either. There is just too much money, and too many greedy fucks involved. I don't even know if I care if it happens anymore either, because:
1. They should have fought long ago, when they were both in the prime of their prime, and
2. How can any fight live up to 4+ years of hype? Somebody would have to have their head knocked clean off of their shoulders and into the audience.
THAT being said, I really don't know who Manny would fight next...
I really hope he doesn't fight Bradley. Almost everyone believes he won that fight anyways, and a rematch would seem to legitimize the result. Sure, Bradley's got the belts, but who cares about belts nowadays?
The JMM fights have been entertaining, but Pac takes a pounding when he fights him...
I kinda think Manny's going to retire soon.

Man I love Pac -- but yeah, his hour glass is running low. Floyd, his style, it's built for the long haul. Manny's offensive style isn't. He's like an Allen Iverson. Little dude with superior athletic ability and blinding, once in a generation speed -- pure offensive firepower. But as he/they aged, the speed goes, and so does the career.
He probably has a few fights left and that'll be it.
As for Manny/Floyd, I honestly think that it will happen because of the reason you mentioned: there's just too much money involved for it not to happen. It will still be the biggest PPV fight EVER, and by a wide margin. Even if they are fighting this fight years too late.
Maybe I'm just naive but I believe 100% that it will take place at some point in time...and I think that time will be 2013.

I love watching both of them fight! And I really would like to see that one happen, just to settle it once and for all.
I believe the reason it hasn't happened yet is the same reason that makes you think it will. The money.
Bob Arum is evil and sleazy and greedy, and Floyd Sr. is ignorant, arrogant, racist and greedy, and I can't see these two coming to any amicable agreement when it comes to how to slice the pie, no matter how big.
I mean, this would have been a big money PPV fight long before now, with room left in both fighter's careers for more big money rematches. Why hasn't it happened yet?
Sorry, I get a bit PO'd when I think about this matchup. They've been dangling it in front of us for years.

My theory is, and it's just a theory, but I believe both fighters actually prefer it to be well removed from their primes. That way a loss doesn't hurt their legacy nearly as much. Them and their fans can always point to that as an excuse. So in the end they'll get the money and will each have built in excuses. Again, it's just a wild and baseless theory by myself, but really kind of believe it. I mean lets face it -- both have been notorious cherry pickers.
As for what I think would happen -- I'd pull for Manny, but like I said, I think Floyd's defensive style is built for the long haul. I think he'd probably wins (if not cruises) to a decision victory.
And I also believe that had Floyd & Manny fought when Pac was disfiguring Margarito's face, walking through Miguel Cotto as if he were construction paper, and murdering Ricky Hatton -- I think that Pacquiao walks down Floyd. I really do.
But yeah, I enjoy watching both fight. Every time they fight I dish out the 65 bucks. Every single time.

That's a really interesting theory, I've never thought of it that way.
As for who wins, I'd definately be pulling for Manny too. I have a hard time picking a winner, because I have a hard time picturing either one of them losing. I guess the last JMM fight was iffy, and I've not seen any footage of his losses early in his career, but I've never seen Manny legit lose a fight. And Roid is undefeated...
I think you're right though. The Ricky Hatton Pac would have beaten (or destroyed) Money. Senator Pac?
Manny seems distracted now... but I guess Floyd is too, with jail and all that.

I think it Mannys "down fall"(lets keep it clear he still is a great fight but he hasnt looked the same as maybe 3 years ago) might be Freddy Roach.
I LOVE Freddy Roach.But man...his fighters are not getting better and always struggle with defense.Khan really needs to dump him.Peter Quillin is a dif story cuz he is just a Beast.
You really have to think if Roaches illness is affecting his training more?

Sometimes I wonder about this myself. I also noticed that his pre-fight warmup for the Bradley match almost completely excluded Freddie. Maybe Manny's lost confidence in him, too.

I agree that Floyd would likely win, but I really couldn't see Pacquiao getting knocked down. I mean the last time dude was knocked down was I believe like 12 years ago. Since then he hasn't come even close. And Floyd's power is pretty good but certainly not spectacular. Hell as many great, square shots that Marquez tagged Manny with over the course of their trilogy -- Manny never went down once. Not a single time. In the meanwhile Marquez got the ten count on four occasions during their three bouts.

Morales knocked him down a couple time in their first fight...and been ROCKED by JMM.Floyd WHOOPED JMM.Idk Floyd alot faster and stronger..idk wouldnt shock me to see Manny get dropped.
Floyd gotta get a tune up fight.Or something.He said he was gonna fight twice this year.Well see.

And yeah, Roach seems to be rapidly declining. But I will say this: he deserves zero blame for the Khan demolition at the hands of Garcia.
Roach told him multiple times to use his reach and not trade with Garcia. So what did Amir do? Trade with Garcia. Khan wanted to knock him out for all the stuff Garcia's Dad was saying. He took it very personally; it got in his head.
I still believe to this day that had Khan fought his usual style that he would have cruised past Garcia. There was no way Danny could get inside with Khan's reach. The only chance Danny had was for Amir to open up and trade. Khan played right into their hands that night.

I think one of the reasons that Manny has trouble with Marquez is that JMM has more experience fighting Manny than anyone else does.
I don't see Floyd knocking down Manny, either. He couldn't knock out Cotto, and Sugar Shane almost had him in the second round. Both fighters that Pac demolished.
My guess is decision Floyd. I'd really like to see him get KTFO before he retires, though. Bernard Hopkins too.

True.But Manny fought Cottoa at a catch weight.Manny didnt want no part of a 154 Cotto. And manny and floyd both whooped shuga shane. Naw...its all match ups.Marquez and fighters with his skill are trouble Manny.

And ya know, it wouldn't shock me at all if Manny found a way against Floyd. I'm with public opinion that the odds aren't in his favor, but fucking Manny is a gamer. He thrives in that underdog role -- that me against the world mentality. And that's a role he really hasn't had in a while, and certainly for the first time in a LONG time he'd be a sizable dog if he and Floyd were to step in the ring.
And you know that crowd would be pro-Manny. Hell the crowd was pro-Cotto against Floyd. Half the people that buy Floyd's fights buy them in hopes that he'll lose. Pacquiao would feed off that atmosphere. If he were to catch Floyd (and granted this would be the near impossible part) leaving that door cracked a tad...allowing Manny to unleash one of those vintage Pacquiao flurries...I mean who knows.
Wouldn't shock me at all.

Guilty. You're right, the matchup game doesn't work. That's why I'm pissed that they've been dragging this out for so long.... all we've got to go by is their previous fights.
And that's why we've got to see them actually in the ring together.

Man. Ward outclassed Dawson. I give all the cred in the world to Chad. But weight discussion aside, CD got dominated.

I think it's almost time to put Ward in the pound for pound discussion. If Martinez loses next Saturday -- Ward will almost assuredly be the new #3 in the world.
Hell he was already around #5 coming into the Dawson fight.

Tomorrow's fight
Canelo Alavarez vs. Joseito Lopez
I am thinking Canelo will probably mop the ring with Lopez, but a lot of us though the same thing with Victor Ortiz and it ended up being one of the best, most electric fights I have seen in some time
Who you picking tomorrow?

I feel the same way you do about the outcome...but I'll be pulling hard for Josesito. But this time he unfortunately won't have the benefit of sneaking up on his opponent.
And don't forget about the headliner on HBO PPV tomorrow...

I will be watching college football all day and I dont know any places out here that have the fights on. Even the Casino's out here dont show the fights. I have no idea why but they dont. Actually, I do know 1 bar that will have the fight on, but I am not sure which one.
I got my Sun Devils playing @ Missouri tomorrow afternoon, so depending on whether they win or loss will determine whether I feel like going out to the bar to watch boxing 
Just heard as well that Paciquao has his fight set for Marquez IV on December 5th. I think I would have rather seen him rematch Timothy Bradley, but whatever. Paci is a juicer

The juicer tag on Pacquiao to me is a shame. The guy has the same drug testing that the entire world of boxing does. The same ones that Floyd Mayweather does. Has he failed any? Floyd planted the seed though in the minds of the public though, and now everybody believes it. And lmao, Floyd's reasoning was that there's no possible way a little asian "could beat guys like Hatton & Cotto worse than me".
Until he fails a test, like Lamont Peterson and others have done so in the past, I have no reason to believe that Pac is on steroids. It's all just baseless speculation.

Something like 110, but that was like 17 years ago when the guy was still pre-20. Now he fights between 140 and 147. I mean is it impossible for a human being over the course of nearly 20 years add 30 to 37 pounds of muscle? Please. I mean with the way guys train today, that's nothing.
Until there's proof of ANY kind, not just Floyd Mayweather implying it, then it's nothing but air.

Holy FUUUUCCCK. Those last 2 minutes of the Chavez/Martinez fight were incredible. After Sergio dominated for 11 rounds he had to hang on for dear life for 90 seconds with wobbly legs after nearly getting knocked the fuck out.
Incredible. And worth every cent of the $60.

Wow is right. That final round...I don't know how it stacks up all-time, but it was certainly one of the best I've ever seen. Sergio was saved by the bell. And that's why I love boxing. You can DOMINATE 11 rounds of a 12 round fight -- yet still be in jeopardy of losing in one exchange.
Fucking epic final round.

Yeah, that was a great fight. Maybe not so much for Chavez Jr fans.
I don't know what JCC is doing fighting in middleweight. I suspect he was pretty drained from making weight. Sergio moved like he was the one that was 10 years younger.
I'm fucking jealous that you were at that fight. That looked like the best crowd ever.

Even for Chavez Jr. fans, I'm guessing they feel pretty good for seeing him hurt Sergio as bad as he did. No -- it doesn't make up for 11 rounds of pure domination -- but still. Junior was actually seconds away from a KO victory in the 12th.

Casinos cant just show a ppv fight for free.
Only way to watch the fight at a casino is to goto a casino that is hosting a Closed Circuit viewing.Tix usually vary in price depending on the fight.Usually $40-70.

There is NO NEED for a rematch.
Sergio fucking murdered this guy..and in his desire to kill Chavez every round got caught and payed for it.There was no need to go toe to toe like that in the 12th.Plus i wonder if Chavez would have even made it to the 12th if Sergio didnt break his left hand in the 4th.
Chavez weighed 180+ at the fight.Sergio 167.Aint no middle weight KOing a dude almost 20lbs bigger,Sergio might have been cloae tho.Chavez does have skill...and alot of heart.But Sergio is just insane.Too fast.Too slick.
Sergio is 37.He should try to get a PAID.Like a fight with Mayweather/Ward at a catch weight.Maybe Canelo Alverez at 157.

Agree. No need for a rematch whatsoever.
However, if Sergio can't get a shot at Floyd or Canelo, then I can almost guarantee you that they'll push for another PPV Sergio/Chavez fight...solely because they know they'll make a ton more off it. Chavez fans will pack the house and buy a zillion PPVs, and they now believe (rightfully or wrongfully) that Chavez can beat him simply because of that 12th round. I think it's wrong, but you know they believe it.
The PPV numbers would be strong for a rematch.

actually many of my mexican friends are not satisfied and even dislike chavez jr now (if they liked him before)
i thought he did great for almost finishing off the ranked #3 p4p in the world on that 12th round but i guess it aint good enough for them

If you mean during the fight, yeah. In that final round Sergio was hurt, and hurt bad.
But when they left the ring, Chavez's face was destroyed. Look at this guy.

Sergio used his face as a punching bag for 11 and a half rounds.

truly was destroyed, but didnt you get the sense that chavez jr just kept on walking through sergio's punches? sergio is crafty and smart fighter, but he looked very vulnerable in that 12th round, not that that would make chavez jr. deserver of another shot at sergio but he truly does have the power to knock him out as oppose to sergio who said was gonna knock out chavez and didnt
chavez jr looked huge as already mentioned, huge and strong, just not as craftier, and smart as martinez

Definitely got the sense that Chavez Jr. was walking through his punches. And yeah, the size difference is glaring. JCC is just a naturally much bigger dude.
I actually have changed my tune on the rematch...I do want to see it actually. JCC will come in with a much greater confidence the next time now that he knows he can severely hurt Martinez, and subsequently Sergio will be coming into the next fight in all likely hood much more careful and apprehensive than he was in the first bout.

If Sergio fought Jr again i think it ends early for Jr will try to open up earlier and get caught.
How bought that ShowTime card fellas?WOW..Every fight was awesome!! Peter Quillin is an ANIMAL. Eric Morales needs to RETIRE.
How crazy is it that Morales is DONE at 36 and Sergio is in his prime at 37?Yes Sergio started later at 20 but samn just compare their bodies.Morales prob didnt train like he shouldve cuz he looked soft n old as hell.

Yeah I also think that if Jr. goes for the knockout early in the fight he will expose himself too much and get caught clean. However, Jr. kept on walking through Sergio's punches when they fought, so the way i see it anything could happen.
Like that danny garcia/erik morales fight. Garcia admitted that he showed way too much respect for morales in their first fight. I think Jr. showed too much respect for Maravilla too and in a rematch he won't, knowing that he can knock him down.

Oh i thought it was REAL close.That one judge had it like 118 for Malignaggi?HORRIBLE.
I thought it couldve gone either way.I give props to Malignaggi tho cuz i thought his career was over.Couldnt believe he is still only 23.Hes rebounded nicely and exchanges more than he use to.

Yea i read Sergio wants to fight him...but he wants to fight everyone lol.
I dont think canelo is ready tho.Think Sergio will lay a good beating down.One reason why Chavez didnt go down vs Sergio is cuz dude came in damn near 190lbs.Sergio was under 168.Like come on.Chavez needs to go up in weight cuz its getting rediculous.
I will def go to that fight tho if it happens.I see Canelo fighting Mayweather before Sergio.

RIP emmanuel steward. He was a biased though from time to time. Just remember when Sergio knocked out williams on that 2nd round and Steward was like "Williams was fighting the perfect fight, and then a punch out of nowhere..." and i kept on thinking, "really steward? out of nowhere?" Lol
anyways here's a cool video i thought to share w/ yall

Yea he got busted and that cancelled the Ortiz rematch(which i was looking forward to too:((
Supposedly he is...they got random testing for the fight so shouldnt be an issue.Should be a gppd one tho...i want to see Guerrero lay a beating on Berto.

Trout is dangerous tho...this kinda has that same feel of the Danny Garcia/Amir Khan fight. Khan was favored but Garcia was considered a very dangerous, undefeated challenger...and we know how that turned out. Now granted, Khan is no Miguel Cotto. Just sayin'.

yup very true...gonna be hard to beat Cotto in NY tho.Trout gonna have to really let loose.
I can see why Cotto passed on a Floyd/Manny rematch now but yea...know what youre saying Teput is undefeated and can pull the upset.

All the credit to the world to Trout -- he's a really, really good technical boxer. Real sound.
That said, Cotto appears done. He looked old & slow Saturday night. And that depresses me because Cotto is one of my favorite boxers on the planet.

Yeah I'm still in shock, SD. Considering MP hadn't hit the canvas in a looooong time, seeing him put to the mat not just once -- but twice violently was surreal, man.
I think Pac needs to call it a career. It would suck for this to be the lasting image of him, but really, what victory is out there that would redeem himself from this? There's only one fight which would do that and that would be fighting and beating Floyd. And first off, the value of that fight has dropped ever so significantly after Manny's destruction last night, and secondly, how in the world could a Manny Pacquiao who just got brutally demolished by a 39 year old fighter have a chance in hell of beating Floyd Mayweather?
It will be interesting to see what route the Manny camp takes but I for one think he needs to hang it up before he damages his legacy even further.

Okay, so onto the mythical pound for pound rankings. Manny has long been a fixture at #2, and now he inevitably plummets down the list.
So who is the new #2? Sergio Martinez? Andre Ward? Shit what about Juan Manuel Marquez?

And to make things even more interesting on that note, his strength & conditioning coach is Angel Heredia -- whom once upon a time testified in court that he supplied Marion Jones and Tim Montgomery with illegal performance enhancing drugs.

Hey SD, do you think Manny will keep fighting? Or more importantly should he keep fighting?
And one has to at least wonder...maybe Floyd will be more eager to make the fight with Manny now? Not that it would matter much anymore because that fight is 3 to 4 years too late (plus Manny just got demolished in front of the entire boxing public) -- but it would still command a huge payday. And Floyd seeing Manny get rocked twice in the fight, he's probably thinking A) I get to add Manny to my resume and B) I'll add another 5 or 6 dump trucks of hundred dollar bills to my bank account.
The fight may be completely irrelevant now but it would still assuredly set the PPV buys record by a mile. And it would still be the single biggest paydays in their careers.

No. He has never failed a test and there has been zero evidence of actual PED use other than the accusations by Floyd Mayweather who said that there was no way a tiny Filipino could be that good and that fast.

After he knocked down Marquez you could tell that at that moment he made the decision to abandon any and all defense and tried to walk him down until a stoppage. And he had Marquez against the wall, too. Pac was starting to take over, but he was completely reckless and showed zero respect for Juan's power...which is odd because JMM floored him just a couple of rounds prior.
And then he paid DEARLY for it. He got Ricky Hatton'd. I don't see how he'll ever be the same after that. I mean there's no fight out there other than getting in the ring and beating Floyd that will erase what happened on Saturday. I mean shit even if he rematches JMM and wins by decision that still won't make up for that brutal KO.
I'm sure he won't but he should probably hang it up.

Per boxingscene.com:
Philippine boxing hero Manny Pacquiao shed tears on national television on Monday, saying he had let his country down in his devastating knockout loss to his great Mexican rival Juan Manuel Marquez.
“The low morale, the sadness, I accept that. This is my job... But the reaction of the Filipinos, the many who cried, especially my family, it really hurts me,” he said in an interview on the GMA network. "Juan is a great champion though and the toughest fighter I have ever faced. He deserves this and I am happy for him."
The former eight-division world champion wiped tears from his eyes listening to his wife, Jinkee, make a tearful appeal on camera for her husband, who turns 34 next week, to hang up his gloves.
“When you see your husband get hurt, you cannot even sleep,” she said in the interview, conducted in the United States after Saturday’s Las Vegas bout.
Asked if she wanted her husband to retire from boxing, she said: “You know the answer to that. He knows what I am asking him”.
Pacquiao’s mother Dionisia made a separate appeal on the same station.
“I have long asked you son, it is time to retire because you started boxing at such a young age. I always pray that he will stop. I asked God to tell my son to stop,” she said.

I don't think he will either, hopefully he will get back in the ring but I have to admit I thought he was dead for a sec - brutal knockout. Never seen JMM lay someone out like that. Though I don't want the PacMan permanently hurt, he seems like a genuinely good guy outside of the ring. Maybe he should hang up the gloves - he has a whole other career ahead of him.

You shouldn't say that.
Pac was never found to be using roids but, in the beginning, he did refuse to be submitted to olympic drug testing against mayweather when it was suggested.
Pac, as a sportsman and icon, should've supported olympic drug testing instead of refusing and then finally accepting a year later, leading some to believe that he used that time to get clean.
coincidentally, his performances weren't as sharp for any of his last 4 fights.
either way, there is no way of knowing whether he used or not.
either way, it was sad to see him laying there in the canvas, specially because he has such charming personality.
what would marquez get out of rematch with pacquiao? nothing.

Honestly, as much as I'd like to see a rematch -- because that was an epic 6 fucking rounds -- it is kind of pointless. Well outside of the money that is. I mean if Manny avenges the loss, then what? Fight #6? When does it end? This was supposed to be the end all and it ended as emphatically as it could.

right. think about it like this. if pac would've knocked marquez out, would he be giving him a rematch? hell no, the dust would be settled and everyone would assume that pacquiao is a superior boxer, that's not quite true, marquez is the most elite of the two.
and the way pacquiao got knocked out, nasty. who could erase that from their memories?
Anyways, i remember marquez saying in an interview in spanish that he was gonna retire (this was when he was upset about the results of their 3rd encounter) and that before he retires he would fight only pac and no one else.
i feel sorry for pac, but i can't look at him the same way as i did prior to watching him dead on the canvas.

Yeah it will be a hard (or probably even impossible) image to erase from people's memories...although it has happened to the best of them. Lennox Lewis & Roy Jones to name a few.
Check this interview clip out. It was post fight, I believe the morning after. Anti-Pac fans will laugh at it but seriously, you gotta respect the passion. I mean the guy just banked 30 million the night before yet he still can't hold back the tears and emotion from losing. They train for nearly half a year for that one hour in the ring...man it has to be tough to go out like that, especially when you have an entire country behind you.

Wow what a video. thanks friend. as i said earlier, it was sad to see manny lose, he portrays humbleness often and i think many people respect and love him for that.
i'd go as far as to say that subconciously we wanted him to win, even as some of us were aware that marquez probably deserved the wins for their first two fights
and by "we" i mean all the non-mexican fans ha

Yep I was rotting for MP but I'm really happy for JMM. He is also a class act. He's the man of the hour in the boxing world right now and I couldn't be more thrilled for the guy.
And speaking of JMM -- I'm going to be attending the Donaire/Arce fight this Saturday in Houston (it will be on HBO), and Marquez is supposed to be ringside. I'm looking forward to seeing him.

Actually to say he outright refused them is inaccurate -- he just refused to take the test within 24 hours of the fight, which is what Floyd was demanding. Pac said he'd take the test immediately after the fight though. His reason? Because he felt drawing blood before a fight would/could weaken him. Retarded fucking reason I know, but he agreed to taking a test as soon as the fight was over so whether or not they took it within 24 hours of the fight or right after, if he was on PED's they would have caught it regardless.
Floyd rejected this.
Conclusion? Both are fags for this. Manny's a bitch for refusing to take the test within 24 hours of the fight (I mean come on, it's a tiny bit of blood and Floyd would have had to do the same thing), and Floyd is an equal bitch for rejecting a post fight test (if he was looking for PED use it would have been caught either way).

Love this match up. Bradley may not be the most entertaining or have the biggest fan base but he has a ton of heart and is a winner. This would easily be Broner's biggest test to date.

Props to Floyd. I figured he'd take the easy/safe route and go Guererro, but he proved me wrong. Canelo looks like a stiff test but obviously he has seen nowhere near the caliber of a Floyd Mayweather. Not even in the same galaxy of a FMJ.

Khan got hit with a handful of return shots that were very Danny Garcia-esque, but Molina lacked the power to do anything with them. I honestly didn't see anything different in his technique/approach that he had when he was under Freddie. But...yeah, Khan's speed is sick as fuck. Some of those crazy combos he be launching are absolutely ridiculous in terms of speed. He's talented, no doubt.
And I was at the Donaire fight: he definitely made quick easy work of Arce. Another cool thing that happened there -- well for me at least -- me and a friend were drinking a beer in the club area in the stadium and Guillermo Rigondeaux sat two tables away from us. Dude was getting mobbed for pics & autographs...he would have time to sit down and eat like one french fry between the never ending line of people coming up to him. Credit to him tho as he was really gracious and never once look annoyed.

Yea i think he should based soley on the fact he is the only boxer in the world right now who does 24/7/365 testing by VADA.
He is the only 100% clean fighter on Earth lol.

I hear talks in the boxing world that Donaire is ducking Rigondeaux, though to donaire's credit, people i talk to don't even know who Rigondeaux is. Is this acccurate?
Rigondeaux looks solid.

It looked like he was ducking Rigondeaux for a little bit -- well either that or he legitimately believed that Rigo had no business in the same ring as him. Because you gotta remember in and around Nonito's weight classes, he's the money man. Rigo is a outstanding talent and an extremely high risk opponent, but has only 11 professional bouts under his belt.
Most of his work was in the amateurs, where he is considered one of the best ever.
But, it seems like Donaire is wanting both Mares & Rigondeaux in 13'.
http://www.eastsideboxing.com/2012/rigondeaux-to-fight-donaire-in-june-2013/
The above article claims that Arum has promised Donaire/Rigo in June.

Well boyz....finally got some bigger fights coming up:)
Im going to the Brandon Rios-Mike Alvarado rematch in Vegas at the end of March..CAN NOT WAIY.Gonna be a slugfest...and seriously...the amout of smoking hot latinas at mexican fights is insane.Dont know who i like in the remtach...prob gonna go with Rios again by late TKO.
Lmao@Mayweather saying Alexander is "leading the pack" at the canidates for his next fight.He is decent but Floyd would MURDER him.Plus would be a boring fight.Hopefully the Guerro gets the nod.
And crazy Austin Trout is gonna fight Canelo Alverez on the undercard.SIICCCK.

That's what i was thinking; if bradly won against devon, and pacquiao crearly outpointed bradly, then floyd will most likely dominate him, plus yeah, a boring fight.
guerrero sounds like a better deal, because of his style of fighting, and because they're fighting may 4 and guerrero is mexican.
rios/alavarado sound exciting as hell. i think mike alavarado can pull the upset, but i'll go with rios because i want rios to be in more epic battles later on against danny garcia, matthysse, or some one else.
austin trout canelo sound solid. i'm pretty sure danny garcia can stop judah in their upcming bout this february.

Broner has crazy hands, though he gave away the 1st and 2nd round - he needs to tighten that guard before he faces better punchers.

Prospects?...they already got belts!!
But yea...they are def the next stars imo too.
Broner needs to get out of 135...aint ANY talent there.Once he moves up and fights guys who can actually hit well see how good he really is.

marquez is still recognized as the champion of the light weight division, and is pretty damn exciting, even though he's fought as a welter against pac.
im very excited for trout/canelo, finally canelo gets to fight a hungry, young, american boxer who actually beat cotto.

Yeah Broner needs to move on up. He's huge at 135, and there's zero competition. Zilch. I mean fuck, he just fought Gavin Rees. Enough said. And his next big fight in the division will be Ricky fucking Burns.
To me he's still a complete unknown. Beat some asses at 140 and I'll buy in.
And where's the discussion on Floyd? Dude signed the biggest deal in the history of boxing, left his home HBO in the process...6 fight deal with Showtime worth 250 mil
THAT SHIT CRAY

Honestly,I saw the fight and didn't even look at the decision - I expected the Russian to get the score on the cards. The knockdowns were so clear to me that I didn't think Bradley had a chance, especially the last knockdown in the 12th, Bradley did good but the Russian guy got robbed IMO.

Bullshit he fought terribly. He had a few good bursts, that doesn't win you a fight though. Dude had no finesse and no style he was just the prototypical bruiser. Just compare their faces after the fight..... Russian probably still cant see.

Yeah, compare their faces... But the fact is, while Ruslan was giving interviews after the fight, they were taking Bradley to the hospital.
I think Bradley won the match based purely on punch output, but there's no doubt that of the two of them, he was the one that took the worse beating. If Provodnikov had gone to the body at all, I'm pretty sure he would have KO'd Bradley.
If the first knockdown had been counted, it would have been a draw on 2 judges scorecards.

I doubt it. Part of the reason he lost is because he fought a dumb fight. He definitely could have won, and probably should have. He fought like a dumbass though. Punched himself out in the first 2 rounds and lost rounds 3 through like 10 pretty solidly. I forgot which boxer said it but hes right Freddie Roach is done.
Its only natural to go to the hospital after a concussion. The russian had to go get stitches.
I liked the Russian until his interview. He acted like a Dbag and not in a funny way like Mayweather does.
speaking of Mayweather, Ward wants a fight.
"Lil Floyd says he spars middleweights. He is the only man I will sacrifice coming to 160 for. He won't take that bait!!!"

Honestly I saw the fight one more time and i had Bradley winning. the more clean punches were of bradley. Sure Provodnikov looked like the fucking devil, smiling like a jackal and making bradley look the most hurt we've seen him. Yet, bradley showed tremendous heart and accuracy.
i heard max saying something about a top rank welterweight tournament that involves the winner of this fight (they both won - the russian is now known in America), the winner of alvarado - rios (good thing they stopped it on time in the 1st fight, huh?), and possibly and marquez pacquiao 5.
floyd ain't going to 160, i don't see that, though with floyd you never know. With that two year contract with showtime i can actually see floyd fighting sergio martinez as a reality.
cheers!

Showtime PAID Floyd 100million+ for a 6 fight deal.
HBO got tired of Goldenboy taking all their top fighters to showtime and the Floyd deal was the ice breaker.So HBO was like...if you wanna box on HBO you cant be promoted by GBP.
Ballsy move but HBO had to do something...and Showtime wont be able to pay all the fighters so HBO hoping some of them jump ship(like Broner rep by Hayman but he basically GBP).
Basically Showtime is all GBP boxers and HBO is Top Rank and everything else now.Lol pretty dumb boxing spat but thats boxing for ya lol.
-------------------- I can beat you to the punch line..or i could punch you to the beat.
