"If Mayweather isn't fighting Pacquiao, look away"

I actually had to send him an email, I was so upset by his bias and negativity. I think he watched the main event only, on a stream mind you.

Here's what I wrote to him in response to his article:

The article that you wrote about Mayweather vs Mosley was just terrible. First of all did you watch any of the undercard fights? I don't think you did , otherwise you would've mentioned them. How did the fans waste their money when there were 3 out of 4 very good fights. Call Mayweather vs Mosley boring, but please don't attribute it to Mayweather, as Mosley clinched excessively and was there to survive. If he would've gotten braver he would've gotten stopped. Mayweather did what he had to do, put on a clinic against Mosley. Mosley was the one that failed us in the entertainment aspect but blame Floyd for that because he had him scared and rattled the whole fight. Don't even compare Silva to Floyd.

Yep, Iole is a joke! He says at the end that the sport is a joke if Mayweather vs. Pacman doesn't happen. Well, first of all Pacquiao is the joke and secondly. We have Diaz vs Marquez, Malignaggi vs Khan, Cintron vs. Williams, we just had Martinez vs. Pavlik. Whatever...
