Before and After

"At 35 Floyd will have too much trouble with Pac's machine gun offense in and out, not standing there like the statue Cotto waiting to catch punches off his gloves and to be held all night long like Floyd did. Before this fight Floyd said he wants to fight five more times, after the fight he said a ...

Can You Hear Buffer Say 'Cali Cranium Crusher?'

"I agree! Money May is GREAT! Da Manny is not only GREATER, but GREATEST! He'd kayo Money May EARLY! @The Roast, how am I doing. Da Manny is going to kayo the Cali Cranium Crusher's arse in four rounds or less. You can take that to the HOUZE! Holla!" ---Radam showin' love for Pacman in his patented ...

Cotto Jab Was Fab

"This was the second toughest fight for Mayweather in my opinion; his toughest fight was the De La Hoya fight because Oscar worked behind his jab for a good portion of the fight. Like De La Hoya, Cotto had success when he jabbed! There aren't many options left for Floyd, I just hope Manny doesn't ge...

This Guy Has Watched Money-Cotto 6 TIMES!

"Cotto, hold your head high. With this loss you have gained the appreciation and accolades of fight fans the world over. Your journey for redemption is over. Fight on, brave warrior. I have watched the fight 6 times and it still hasn't gotten old" --Brown Sugar has a very forgiving lady

Here's the Prediction--Pacman Is Unpredicatble

"Pac's weaknesses and strengths are very different than Cotto's - the lefty stance, the speed and unusual angles, the snappy footwork, the sheer pain of those sharp punches, can throw Floyd off his game far more readily than the straightforward boxing-punching that Cotto did. However, Pac's relative...

One Take: Manny-Money Wouldn't Be One-Sided

"I'm not convinced that Pacman beats Floyd just because Cotto gave him a tough fight. If Pac and Floyd ever do fight, and that's a big if, they would both land punches to the other's chin. It might come down to who takes the better shot. It would not be a one sided fight by any means. They both coul...

The Defense Doesn't Rest

"Training a fighter, defense is the first, second and third issue. However, there comes a time when a trainer simply cannot resist the very nature of the fighter he is training. Some guys are simply born a certain style, with a certain attitude, and you better take that nature and mold it - do the b...

Cotto's Not Cock-y

"Cotto's confidence seems normal to me. He's not a chest thumper nor is he a rooster walking around with his chest stuck out cawk- a-doodle-doo'ing. If he were ice cream he'd be vanilla when it came to these interviews. He might want to mix in a Red Bull but other than that he looks like he's re...

Cotto Past His Sell-By Date

"Whatever May may say, Cotto has been not only beaten twice, he has had the tar beaten out of him by both Margarito and Pacquiao. There is no way that this can be mistrued for fresh meat. In fact, Cotto cannot be misconstrued for anything other than two men's leftovers. And I say that with all d...

Mayweather Is Like The Big C

"This fight is going to be about Floyd stepping forward, Mayweathering the storm, while he gradually eats away at Cotto's self-confidence, constitution and defence like a malignant cancer, devouring the fighter internally, from the inside out... until only the husk remains. When Cotto has finally e...

Mayweather Is Mister Clean

"Looking forward to this one. We got the P4P King vs. a top #5 P4P pugilist who have never been beaten without the cloud of suspicion or catch weight advantage. Two of the best in the game about to bring the pain, but when it's done..one top dog will remain. You know the name, get that lame hate out...

May You All Rest in Peace

"To all the Vernons, Angelos, Genarros, Arturos, Julios, and now Bert...we're not ready to accept losing you. May you all rest in peace." ---TSS reader Dino feels the sting of the losses to the boxing world in recent years

They Don't Make 'Em Like They Used To

"Bert never refused me a photo or a handshake. My fiance just lit his cigar last summer. God bless Bert Sugar. They don't make 'em like they used to, that's for sure." --TSS reader Deep Water will miss Bert

Truly One of a Kind

"Bert Randolph Sugar was truly one of a kind. I had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Sugar at the Irish Pub in Atlantic City prior to the Hopkins-Pavlik fight in 2008, and he was gracious enough to sit and talk with three of my friends and me for nearly two hours. We sat there like students in a cl...

There Will Never Be Another

"Sad news. I'm really going to miss Bert Sugar telling us stories about all the fights that happened back in the day. He was one of the big reasons why I wanted to learn more about the history of boxing. There will never be another Bert Sugar...May he rest in peace." ---Ali reacting to Bert Sugar's ...

Valuev Coulda Been Contender Vs. Wlad

"It will take a big, strong, skilled boxer who Wlad can't push and pull around the ring to expose Wlad as the one-dimensional boxer he is. Lewis and Bowe would have knocked him out but there aren't big men of that quality around at present. Someone who can jab with Wlad, wrestle with Wlad and ...

This Ain't Dancing With Stars..And Mormeck Is DEF No Star

"i understand clinching as part of the game. i am a huge Bernard Hopkins fan in all...But when Wlad's opponent is so out matched it is not even funny he should not have to resort to excessive clinching and holding....I can see Ali clinching due to Frazier landing those thudding rib crushing ...

Wladimir Is Am All-Time Great

"APART from the clinching, which I find annoying and not the most developed part of his arsenal, Klitschko is a GREAT classic boxer, with some of the finest abilities to time and place punches at different speeds and angles, not to mention extreme cool, anticipation, and calculation, as good...

Who Do Ya Like, Mormeck or Fudd?

"This fight reminded me of an old Looney Tunes Cartoon Featuring Elmer Fudd shooting fish in a barrell and hunting ducks with a bazooka. How easy is it to look impressive while hitting a human punch-bag who won't hit back? This was another discraceful matchup that actually sold out a ...

Mayweather Favored Over Mormeck

"Wladimir-Mormeck was a testament to how great the Klitschko brother are. I'm being sarcastic. I really think their dominance is due to 30% how good they are and 70% how bad their opponents are. I think opposition is 70% of the battle for them. That fight was a waste of time. I think Mayweat...

It Is The Way It's Always Been

"Money gone. Shane will take his lumps for the paycheck. It is the way it has always been. The young lions kill the old lions. No different than when Oscar beat down Chavez. At least it's just an undercard fight." --The Roast predicts a paycheck-for-pain transaction for Mosley

Floyd-Cotto Better Match Than Floyd-Manny

"I think its a good match up style wise. I will even go as far as to say that this could be a better fight than the much hyped Floyd/Manny super fight. I think Floyds style will give Manny fits. Cotto has become a much more seasoned, calculating fighter who can box and fight. Cotto also change...

Cotto A Two Time Loser, Floyd In A Snoozer

"Floyd by easy pot shot decision over tweleve predictable rounds. Cotto today is a re-habbed fighter. A two time loser, both times badly. Once to Margarito and then badly decimated by Pacquiao. He has never been the same. Floyd Money Matyweather picked his moment and picked it well. He alway...

Mayweather Coulda Been A Legend Like Ali

"Oh Gaa-w-w-w-d, who cares?!!! Pacquiao fought the whole division for him while he was fighting cherry-pickins and wrestlers. Money May is courting a small pie here. He could have been the next Ali or Tyson if he had stepped up to all the competition. But he chose his contests like a girl choo...

Real Talk: Cotto Has A Real Chance

"Cotto is a live dog in this fight. He has a great jab, can box, move and has a good corner. Props to Floyd for taking this fight at 154 and not playing the catch weight games. Cotto is boxing and moving more instead the bulling forward stalking style and can do both. Floyd might be catching...

35 And Full of Jive

"Will Money May win? Probably so, especially in the City of sin. But is he still all that and a bag of chips? NO! He is now a man of tin. If Cotto makes Money May bleed in sweat, Money May will rust. The end of every era is a must. Money May at 35 is full of jive. He does better with greeni...

Who'll Give Manny Problems? ML Says Bradley BEATS Pacman!

"I feel Bradley and Peterson can give Pacquiao some problems. Pacquiao has faced bigger guys with no defense. In addition, Pacquiao has only done well against boxer punchers (Mosley, Cotto), face first and straightforward fighters (Hatton, Margarito), and old fighters (Oscar, Mosley). The pe...

"Willing to Die" the New "Going to Give 110%," Pt 2

"Willing to die in the ring," is now becoming a standard quote for every sucka to an interviewee. I will tell you like "Old Blood and Guts" said. "A true warrior doesn't die for a cause or a belief, he kills da otha' bastard for that bastard's cause or belief..." The way Cotto worded it was ri...

"Willing to Die" the New "Going to Give 110%," Pt 1

"I'd rather hear,... "I'd die trying to learn how to box better".... Besides... even though Rubio represents a more experienced, seasoned opponent... and a far better boxer... statements like that should be reserved for opponents anxiety producing opponents of Hagler-like dimension only.... He...

Hark, Herald Angels and Haters Sings, Jailtime for the P4P King!

"Incarceration for any lenth of time can suck your soul into oblivion. Floyd will learn to relish not putting himself into a position where his basic human rights and privilleges are snatched away in an instant and his very life becomes property of the state.. And I promise you, it'll be a l...
