Impressive performance by Pacquiao tonight, even if Margarito was tailor made for his style (slow, mummy/punching bag).
I still give him more props for his win over Cotto than this win, though. We all know Mosley ruined Margarito but didn't really know to what extent since Margarito only had one fight since the wrap controversy.
The only real viable choice for Pacquiao at welterweight really now is Paul Williams. He gave an attempted cheater a chance to make the big bucks, why not a hard working fighter like Williams? Win or lose next Saturday the Punisher should get his chance next in line.
Only boxing fans can hope Pacquiao actually fight live dogs instead of chasing belts for a record that's really not as coveted as one would think these days.
hatton, corrales, & castillo are not great fighters. good fighters, but never true hall of fame greats.
sorry try again.
Hindsight.
If they were unstoppable forces like Pacquiao then it'd be a different story. The only other person he needs to beat in order to seal his legacy is the immovable object: Mayweather.

But hatton and corrales were at the top when they fought and undefeated.
bigger doesnt mean better. u guys are supposed to be fans of the sport and yet ur still attracted to this stupid myth that some big guy can beat pac??? thats dumb. margo had little to no chance in this fight. u wanna see a small guy beat up a big guy go see haye/valuev or **** go back in history and see max baer vs. primo carnera. **** happens. stop being impressed like a casual fan.
That's my point exactly. This whole big man small man phenomenon only really applies when a good big man fights a good small man (JMM-Mayweather), although a bloated JMM isn't really at his best, still beat him decisively.
Seriously just STFU. You complaining about Manny fighting BIGGER guys while Floyd fought JMM? I'm amazed at some people, this is by far one of the dumbest things I've ever seen posted. Manny's fighting guys TOO big now? Lmao.

Never said they were too big. Clottey was bigger than Magarito was when he fought Pacquiao. True story.
It's been years since Pacquiao fought a true prime fighter. The last time he did he almost lost and look how long its been and has yet to give JMM his third fight, probably too late by now.

That was fukkin' hilarious! LMFAO!
He did the same thing with Clottey, the living punching bag.
I did give credit to Pacquiao, but it doesn't seem right to give credit when this whole "he's really big" act gets old.
He's just rexposing fighters that have been ruined in one way or another. Where's the risk in that? I want him to take someone's loss-cherry (Williams, Berto..............................Mayweather?) haha.

Who do you think Pacman should fight? Can you name a prime fighter today that he should fight?
I think Bradley is in his prime. Pacman should fight him. Pacman wins by KO
Paul Williams?

Manny by a murder in 5 rounds.
at the end of the day.. Pacquiao just beat a man that outweighed him almost 20 pounds.....

he fought diego coralles and jose luis castillo
when you were in diapers
those 2 boxers wouldnt be a hall of famer. its a guarantee. Manny fought 3 future hall of famers in their prime. Barrera, JMM and Cotto. add oscar and morales in a hall of famers that Manny beat.
Cotto, Barrera, JMM>>>>>> Castillo, Corrales, Mosley
FLoyd is not available. after tonights performance im not sure how a prime Bradley, Alexander or Khan can beat Manny? he was outweighed bt 17 lbs and still took Marg's best shot over and over. so all the delusional out there, im sorry but any of the top 140 lbs has ZERO chance of beating Manny or even make it a competitive fight.
case in point
