If I was in the media, I would definitely become fluent in Spanish. Whether I'm Latino or not. Many of these boxers (if not the majority) are from Spanish speaking countries. So it would be best to learn in order to communicate with them more effectively :manny:
I work with a bunch of spanish dudes. When they don't understand my english, I just say it again 5x as loud and they seem to get it :yeshrug:

I just don't think he's a more talented/skilled Boxer than Adrien Broner....and never will:manny:


And, I've never seen him show "heart" in a fight on the level that Broner did against Maidana either, because I feel he's never allowed himself to be put in a position of where he had to dig deep in order to comeback (which is kind of a good thing. Floyd's never had to dig deep and go all out in his entire 49 fight career, and he's still the best of this decade):yeshrug:


zab.:ehh:

unless he didn't lose the first 4 rds.:patrice:

Nah...example of showing "heart" in a fight, imo, is something like Timothy Bradley or Chris Algieri did vs Ruslan Provodnikov, Diego Corrales vs Jose Luis Castillo, Holyfield vs Bowe, JMM vs Pacquiao 1 etc.


Floyd's never allowed himself to be put in a situation like that (where he's fought back from being almost finished to turn a fight around and either win or finish strong in a losing effort)

thats ur opinion though .

imo he showed heart....not as much as others but hes showed it.

zab kd him too imo.


plus it seems u are penalizing him for being defensively responsible not taking harder fights.

Breh you sound dumb. That #notwithal shyt is was well known by Ishe and everbody else when he responded.

I dont know why but it seems like you be ready to in some way, shape, or form hate on damn near every black fighter out there. :rudy:
I was ready to write a snappy reply till you went to the whole "I'm hating on black fighters" bullshyt which puts you squarely in the posters I won't even bother to interact with category.

Those are not 1 in the same.

You can be defensively responsible and still involved in a hard fight, which is why I used JMM vs Pacquiao 1 as just an example:yeshrug:
