The Official Boxing Discussion Thread * 2
    #12570171 - 05/15/10 10:53 PM (13 years, 8 months ago)

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).

I watched Haye v Chisora yesterday 

Both those guys acted like wwf fools when they fought a klitschko 

Haye won convincingly and he wants a klitschko rematch

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.

Epix

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.

:whatwhatwhat:

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's incredible. I had never heard of him. Talk about never giving up! That's fucking inspirational.

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.

So would have Manny. Shit Manny would have knocked him out before Floyd. And I'm not a Manny fanboy, either. I'm just a fan of boxing. Pac has more power than Mayweather.
