pernell whitaker
first i don't follow MMA.
second name me one of the great boxer of the past who used that "slap slap hug and slap slap dunk and run" strategy
i guess ray leonard was not a great boxer because he came in to the ring to the intent to hurt his opponent
floyd is the john ruiz of 145lbs lol

and look at the first comment under the pernell vid.
You sound like you do, because you keep saying slap when Mayweather's go-to punch was the jab. How do you confuse a straight hit with a sweeping motion?
Sugar Ray Leonard didn't fight Hearns with the intent to hurt him, his strategy was to win with points. You have all these great power punchers to pick from, and you pick a man who relied on quickness and counter-punching... you truly don't follow boxing if you mistake Leonard for somebody like Shavers who actually went in the ring to win by KO.
Dude, Whitaker was walking down Chavez. That was amazing!
Floyd couldn't even walk down a much smaller fighter.
Don't get me wrong, Floyd is a great fighter but he had no intention to hurt his opponent and when that happens, it's just a running game.
Let's say for the sake of argument, I agree.
But Hearns was bigger than Leonard.
Was Pacquiao bigger than Floyd? <--- That's not a question by the way.
For God's sake even Roy Jones Jr went into the fight with Ruiz to hurt him, that was amazing and not run all night.
like whitaker, floyd is a defensive fighter who relies on quickness and counter punching to offset his lack of power. people act like we haven't seen floyd's style of fighting anymore and it makes me question their boxing knowledge.
floyd has walked down several fighters in his career. he'll get in the pocket, cover up, wait for his opponent to throw a flurry of punches and then he'll walk them down with a combo of his own. he did it this weekend. did you watch the same fight???
check the link below. walking down a fighter isn't some rare talent in boxing. all boxers do it.

Lol what a ty thread, those stills making Gayweather look like a god when he was running all the fight like a desperate running from a pimp.
I would love to see action heroes fighting like Gay... hiding, crying and dumb nigs saying NO MAN HE IS A MAGICIAN, A TRULY ARTIST!
He is the perfect scapegoat to nigs because they cant fight for so now they are artists, defensive masters
Where is the video proving he dominated the little filipino? hugging and never trading punches what a .
Go suck your mama's ties with all that gotdam crying![]()
Lol you are a black ignorant so there is no loss, in a real fight you can beat my ass by being a technician just like Floi![]()
ducking a little Asian guy for all those years. Whatta pussy.
Hearns had to go down in weight by a lot, but instead of continuing on that point I can simply point to the most infamous win of Leonard's career in Haggler. Leonard isn't the fighter you make him out to be and boxing isn't what you make it out to be.
Roy Jones Jr is a different fighter, he would have served as a better example than Leonard.
I never used Leonard as an example to walking down people, I used him as an example of "ducking and running" he never did that.
Jones Jr was much smaller than Ruiz yet he pushed him back, beautiful to see.
Floyd couldn't even push back a midget asian man. Disappointing. ***No no u don't understand he's a magician, he's defensive, he is... he is.... ahhh stop that non-sense*** be honest with yourself man.
I remember Floyd saying in an interview "I am in the hurt business" LOL yeah riiiiight you are.
By the way "I am in the hurt business" was first said by HBop before the Pavlik fight.
Oh this fight was last night? Glad I missed it.
Again, you are sounding like an MMA fan who wants to see guys hurt. That's not boxing and you're very wrong about how Leonard fights.
DUDE you're a scam artist, lol posting a video of round 12. What type of fraud are you trying to pull off here?
Try harder I'm too smart for that.
Even a "MMA fan" like me is too smart for the crap you're trying to pull off.![]()
Pinoy?
Gotta feel sorry for you Pinoys braving the heat and the rain to watch your next president get ted on....

I could post the entire fight, but your limited boxing knowledge wouldn't be able to process it and think a light flurry to rack up points is equivalent to a combination of power punches. The last round highlights Leonard's plan to win by points and avoid getting into an exchange, he would back off Haggler and rest on the ropes whenever he could.
riiiight so you only posted round 12, beautiful boxing IQ you got there bud
Idiot, even de la hoya was running the bicycle in the trinidad fight in r12, even pascal did that recently, even jermain taylor did that with hopkins in r12, even calzageh did that, even even even....
all boxer ran the bicycle at least once or even more in their career in round 12, you're absolutely a boxing GENIUS my friend, a magician like floyd! YAAAY!
i think it's time for me to stop replying back to you since you're not on my level, ur boxing IQ is far superior![]()
Yeah, the only round easy enough to break down for some guy who just watches MMA. The tempo remained for 9/12 rounds, points over damage - that's how Leonard played and that's why he rose above his greatest rivals. Haggler wasn't afraid of Leonard's power as seen by after round 3 and Leonard took full advantage of clinching.
You should stop replying, it went downhill after you claimed Leonard was a dangerous man in the ring. He fought to win, unlike Haggler or Tyson who fought to lay a hurting.
Yeah he he shouldn't have got in the with Kovalev but what I love about Hopkins is he's gonna fight the best in whatever division he's in - win' lose or draw. I love the fight game. Always will. The casual fan will disappear and come back when a big fight is occurring. The problem is there will no longer be a heel in boxing once Floyd goes. People didn't pay to see Manny win. They paid to see Floyd lose.
hey conman, where did i claim such thing?
i see you are making up stories in your head, you're such a boxing genius LOL
Need I quote it, or do you remeber when you said he went into a fight to hurt people?
You're indeed an idiot. Leonard came in to hurt his opponent unlike your boy floyd. Now you're dissing Leonard for running in the 12, i REPEAT in the ROUND 12! from BIGGER opponents? WOW you're indeed a special case! I am starting to think you're the MMA fan now
Your boy floyd ran from a midgit asian man all night apparently because he is a magician in the ring.
So are you saying your boy floyd would have fought Hagler or Hearns in round 12? LOL![]()
