I'm not a Manny Pacquiao hater. I like watching the guy fight and I respect his skills immensely. With that said, when I really take a close look at his resume, I see that it's kinda misleading (especially any fight above 135).
He gets loads of credit for beating a Miguel Cotto that was severely beaten and forced to submit (in mma terms: he tapped out) by Antonio Margarito.
Shortly after that fight he was more competitive but nevertheless he caught a beating at the hands of Josh Clottey.
How much credit does Manny Pac really deserve for TKO'ing Miguel Cotto?
We all know De La Hoya was past him prime and weight drained. It was a shocking win for Manny, but again, how much credit does he really deserve?
Out of the three (hatton,dlh,cotto), Ricky Hatton was probably the least faded. And even in that scenario, Hatton was knocked out slightly over a year prior by Mayweather.
Pac is being built into this Ray Robinson-like demi God and I think it's unwarranted.
Mayweather may not be fighting the biggest KILLERS at welterweight, but his last three opponents weren't coming off knockout losses either.
JMM was coming off KO wins over Casamayor and Juan Diaz...
De La Hoya was coming off a career rejuvinating KO of Ricardo Mayorga...
Ricky Hatton was UNDEFEATED at the time he fought Floyd...
In all honesty, Mayweather has fought tougher and FRESHER competition.
Just face it. Mayweather has fought fresher guys throughout his career. From Diego Corrales to Jose Castillo to Ricky Hatton. These guys were FRESH when they fought Mayweather.
LOL. If it is floyd who beat those guys they are fresh, but if pacquiao wins they are overrated, old, past their prime, weight drained. hahahahahaha

Some of you guys are more emotional than the females I mess with on a daily basis. My God!
Nobody fukkin hates Pacquiao.
The fact is he's fighting the #1 fighter in the world and as a BOXING FAN, I'm trying to explain to some of you dimwits that Pac has been built up to an unrealistic level.
JMM proved that he wasn't on Mayweather's level, but he's on Pac's level.
I guess saying that makes me a hater though. LOL! That's why I keep winning money off these fights.
Just look at my sig.
