That is the most shocking thing of all. Watching Manny Pacquiao (who should be fighting at 135) making Cotto run like a coward, and Clottey hide in a shell, scared to exchange. A year ago who would have predicted we'd see something like this happen?
Manny's between a LW and JWW who's a puncher---when he adds weight---he becomes a WW. Period. With attributes of both LW and WW of speed and power, respectively.

I did!!! This is what I expected!! I expect domination.. But the Ko didn't happen. clottey got scared. He must have read my predictions, I saw him reading boxscene!!
I agree 100% from what I seen. I just cant watch it over and over. The footage is awful and his style is awful to look at. It also looks racist to me for reasons I wont say on here but I get uncomfortable watching him fight.
PM the reason...
vitali ain't close to having johnson's defensive skills.
that said i'd rather watch vitali fight.
Ofcourse not. That style though is very similar to Johnson.

Im gonna try and put some better stuff on youtube. Whoever capped and uploaded those fights....didn't do a good job (not to knock anyones work).
After awhile that muscle and the weight sticks to you and you. If Pac tried to go down to 135 hed be weight drained.
again...he weight 142 the day of the weigh in without trying to cut weight during training cap. It was the opposite, because he was on a high carb diet, puttin on weight.
With all that said, Its not impossible for him to lose 7lbs of water weight....espcially when Clottey lost 13lbs plus on a consistant basis to make WW.
Jack Johsnon was one of the best defensive fighter of his time.
True Story...
hard hitter too.

Is understandable, some footage sucks and you can't see stuff clearly.
I just like to watch anything to do with boxing that I can get a hold of. I was Jack Johnson highlights over and over again.
yeah and when i get to see old fights they are usually heavyweight fights.

Oh god no...lol Cant do it.

Yea Charles really wasn't prime for the Marciano fight anymore. And, Charles was really at his best at LHW and beat Charles Burley at MW I think. Really great fighter. If you can try to find some of his fights with Archie Moore and Jersey Joe Walcott. Good fights.

prior to the de la hoya fight, this entire forum's shittin on pac saying he's just in it for the beatdown and the payday
