Kirkland didn't really sound cocky to me. He was respectful about the other guy's abilities but talked himself up which is kind of the point of those interviews. He wasn't calling the other guy a bum or saying he was going to knock him out right away or anything. Said he was thankful for the opportunity. Damn that was freaking brutal, wonder if his jaw survived intact.
Kirkland was an explosive fighter. Ann Wolf just couldn’t stop him from standing and banging. I think he was relatively punch drunk towards the end of his career. probably sparred too hard. happens a lot, these guys go 100% in sparring and end up getting in wars. Suffering concussions during training camp is not good practice. That why AJ got KO’d by Ruiz Jr. Word has it AJ suffered a concussion 2 weeks before the fight and why he whooped Ruiz proper the 2nd time around
I have notice something that all refs share. They all put a lot of emphasis on making sure the boxer that gave the knock down have to get to the neutral corner asap instead of counting down the down boxer. Even while the guy is walking toward the neutral corner.
There is someone who is counting outside of the ring to keep the count accurate. Getting them to the farthest neutral corner is the job of the ref, and sometimes they may have to walk the fighter most of the way there to make sure they are where they are supposed to be.
@@WinorGoHomeTV some don’t know the difference between an opinion and a fact. Your opinion is he was confident. And mine is that he was cocky. Both opinions. Mayweather is not a good guy. Also my opinion, and I am confident in my opinion. I know what it means just fine.
@@aysada its not like u know him personally. But the sport has a huge problem with the best fighters saying they are the best. We all know hatton was not confident in this fight and floyd was. Thats why floyd prevailed where hatton didnt. I met floyd and just know, dont believe everything u hear. Takes pics writes autographs when not in a rush and his work ethic proves why he is allowed to say hes TBE. Hatton doesnt have that. Notice how after the fight hatton gained weight tremendously where as floyd is in top shape year round. U dont play boxing, u live it. U just dont like that hes undefeated, defeated the most world champions of all time, has the best hit to not get hit ratio of all time, and has the greatest defense of all time. Who he is outside the ring has nothing to do with his skill level. Stay on topic if u are going to diss. Notice i hit u with boxing FACTS not OPINIONS. U gotta leave your feelings at the door in this sport or u dont belong. Btw please find me a better boxer with this many accolades. Dont worry, i'll wait.
@@WinorGoHomeTV the facts you state are about his accomplishments, not about his cockiness, which is what I’m talking about. Any perception about him being humble that you have based on your experience is yours and therefore your opinion because you witnessed it, you felt it, and you rated it according to your system of beliefs. I’m not arguing one is more accomplished than the other because I don’t care about either of them enough. But that they are both cocky is clear to me and my opinion. Not just based on this. But based on all the other shit I’ve seen featuring and about Mayweather. A person can be greatly accomplished and also be a cocky prick. they’re not mutually exclusive. Only one off-topic was you. Because I stayed on cocky and you started talking accomplishments.
@@WinorGoHomeTV I answered your comment hours ago. I’m not sure why it’s not on there, but here’s the gist of what I said. I don’t care enough about either one of them to care about anything other than what I saw before me on the screen. You saw confident; I saw cocky. Neither one of them looked like the good guy. Because the good guy would be humble. Confident is fine, but it’s not humble and that’s what the good guy would be in my eyes. All I have to say on the matter everything else about Mayweather I couldn’t give less of a crap about. I take your word about those accomplishments. Great but not what I was talking about at all.
Even though I'm english naseem was a Muppet barerra the only real boxer he ever fought. All that disrespect he gave was ott and Antonio taught him what's what.
9:53 he punched him in the nerves that run behind both sides of your jaw. its like a pressure point. Your brain says “Ok thats enough, were shutting ALL of it down” 😂
Having Hatton in here as the cocky fighter is MASSIVELY DISINGENUOUS. Mayweather was his usual self throughout the whole ridiculously long press-tour that he insisted on, and then Hatton have it back to him on one of the tour dates, which happened to be in his hometown of Manchester, England. Mayweather was the cocky fighter in that one. He’s always the cocky fighter - that’s his style. He’s absolutely amazing at his craft, both the trash-talk and the actual boxing. Hatton was pretty much always the humble one, though he did like to have a laugh (making fun of himself a lot), and he knew he was a massive underdog in that fight. The ref made it deliberately difficult for him, by not letting him fight on the inside which was literally his style, which kind of ruined the fight, but Mayweather was always going to win. People also try this on Hatton for the Pacquiao fight because he was discussing his plan on tape with his coaches, “every time he does this, he turns his head this way, so bang! I’ll give him something to turn in to” or something like that, on for him to try the move in the fight and get knocked out harder than Amir Khan against Alvarez!! Like I say, he liked to join in and have a go, but he should be nowhere near this list and this video.
I couldn't stand richard steel he was a garbage ref he wave off foghts where the person is still fighting but counts to 10 when the person is completely knoked out he's the angel hernandez of boxing if you know who that is
The Americans did Hatton bad, they knew he was an inside fighter and could trouble Mayweather, but as soon as he got close to him and not even holding they were immediately separated, therefore giving Hatton virtually zero chance of winning

That interviewer just casually and smoothly pulling out a second microphone when Barrett wrenched the first one away was glorious.
Little boy whipped his ass😅
Legend has it Kirkland is still bouncing off the floor

@@poindextertunes Kirkland had a great career, just met the wrong guy on the wrong day
Nobody takes these pre-fight shenanigans seriously, least of all the fighters. They’re just trying to build the gate.
5:34 bruhh the towel.. 🤣
Alvarez with that technical punching!!
Pound for pound , the greatest fighter of all time.
Always like seeing mundine getting knocked the frik out
50 was looking at Kirkland like “this 🥷 bout to get knocked out”😂
Mundine sounds like he already had brain damage. Could barely complete a sentence

@@yankee_tango You often hear that person introduced along with the ref and judges-"counting the knockdown seconds"
@@NilezII That is correct that is where the ref picks up the count and continues it in the ring.
Thanks for the compilation, and excellent commentary.
Great stuff.
Need to show the second best part of these which is the post fight interviews
I dont think Kirkland was particularly cocky, he was just confident. He was even respectful of Alvarez
he liked to bang too much. not a great idea against a guy who went pro at like 12 years old 😂
28 of 28 punches landed. My jaw hurt watching that in slow motion.
best part was getting mundines name wrong...second only to horn knocking him out!
The Hatton Mayweather fight was the case of two cocky fighters. There was no good guy there.
Hatton was cocky Mayweather was confident. Some dont know the difference case in point, your comment!

No note on why this is reuploaded?
Cash grab that requires no effort.
This notes for you
You already know why
Money money money MONEY
What is this,a contest of silly pants? :-)
I laughed so hard on the first fight
Naseem Hamed is still the king of this category. I literally LoL'd when Barrera got sone with him.
Even though I'm english naseem was a Muppet barerra the only real boxer he ever fought. All that disrespect he gave was ott and Antonio taught him what's what.
I started watching Naseem because I couldn't stand him ..I wanted to see him get knocked the f out so bad .
Never a big Mayweather fan but i will say he was a beast and was able to back it up.
Ricky Hatton was robbed in that fight by that bent, corrupt, septic tank ref
You are totally correct, as soon as Hatton got anywhere near him so he could work inside they were immediately separated, dodgy ref indeed
Mayweather probably paid the ref off. He's a pile of human garbage.
@@Paulthompson9942you're just mad because Hatton met a real fighter
The haircut on paez is enough to know he’s not a smart man.
Noire and inouye was wild.
9:53 he punched him in the nerves that run behind both sides of your jaw. its like a pressure point. Your brain says “Ok thats enough, were shutting ALL of it down” 😂

Mayweather could back it up tho
Call me old fashion, but no amount of show boating is fun.
...96 seconds, that'll learn you 🎉
At least Darchinyan said flat out that he wanted Donaire to be able to walk out under his own power?
Humility is lacking in all sports. So many big-mouth athletes talk themselves into an embarrassing conclusion.
I feel like yellow gloves is a really bad idea. Black gloves are actually hard to notice coming in at weird angles
You got knocked the f*** out
“Young man!” 😂
Some of these guys need to work on their neck strength.
ALVAREZ 🥶
7:13 soon as that dude figured out his opponent had no head movement he started throwing straights and thats all she wrote
After Nonito, Darchynian was never the same.
Viva Alvarez !
Didnt thinknyou could hit someone in the back of the head
Mayweather bought his record. He knows he lost some of those fight and his record was not earned. He’s a good fighter but he is not the best.
First one didn’t seam like a cocky fighter
Paez is an absolute clown. Appropriate, I guess.
Alvarez wasn't the entire career on gears?
they all run gear dude… don’t be naive
I actually feel bad for Kirkland. Dude came from nothing and struggled staying away from the wrong ppl :/
What language is Mundine speaking ?
Canelo 🥊
Great channel!
Anthony "The Mouth" Mundine is the most overrated, self deluded wannabe boxer ever. What an absolute joke!
So why was the first one in here?
Im a man and his aboy. thats impressive....!So he knock me out😭
I couldn't stand richard steel he was a garbage ref he wave off foghts where the person is still fighting but counts to 10 when the person is completely knoked out he's the angel hernandez of boxing if you know who that is
The title of this video has confused me. I thought the cocky guys got knocked out. Mayweather was the one acting cocky.
3:20....this guy looks like what you get when you randomize your character at the beginning of skyrim
Couldn't get past the robot narration. So tired of it!
The Americans did Hatton bad, they knew he was an inside fighter and could trouble Mayweather, but as soon as he got close to him and not even holding they were immediately separated, therefore giving Hatton virtually zero chance of winning
Didn’t that fight happen in Hattons territory?💀
If you want respect, don't wear a dress in the fight.
Canelooo!!
People still don't realize boxing and wrestling are staged.
Gayweather...🤮
A lot of these look like dives big-time
Mun-deen not dine*
Mayweather's gay...
I imagine most of those urban Guerillas hit prison & go right for the cheeks...
That's why he's called gayweather
And he whipped ALL your favorite fighters 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@weirdoslovemrshelton but not before getting spit roasted
And he had his ex wife killed 💉💊
