We all remember and love HBO's series "Legendary Nights". They're so good you can watch them over and over again. I want to ask all Pac man supporters: lets say HBO would make a new run of these shows, which Pac fight up to this point do you think is worthy of such an honor?
The only one I can really think would be a fight with Mayweather BUT like I said only fights that have already happened not fantasy.
Let me know what you think.
C
The Marquez or Morales series...although the Marquez series arguably doesn't have closure...
Now if he can fight Floyd, that would blow those two out the water...
Marquez.
But hopefully if HBO did another Legendary Nights, they would eliminate the myths and exaggerations of the last series which polluted the minds of way too many boxing fans (and boxing forums).
Great ones not involving Pac would be Cotto-Marg for obvious reasons, Hopkins-Trinidad bhop huge underdog and 9/11 just happening, and maybe Pwill-Maravilla 1 and 2 if Martinez were to get more relevant.
Morales I and Marquez I & II are my favourite Pacquiao fights so I guess I'd choose them, but they don't really function as a celebration of Pacquiao himself so if that's the point then Oscar or Barrera I would probably be the best choices.
All his recent fights have been so one sided on the surface it wouldn't be good to do a show on them.... Also, JMM talks the most **** about Pac so as people have said. JMM v Pac I/II it is....
Yeah it's funny I can really only think of JMM vs Pac II.... and that was a close fight. It's fair to say it could have gone either way. So none of his recent victories get nowhere near as getting on that show. The De la hoya fight.... hmmmm I don't think so, he was too old and really no history between the two.
To me they would do two since the story of one is intertwined with two. That would be a quality 30 minute show though, no denying that.
yeah that's how I intended it to have both fights intertwined because of the drama of the results
I think those two fights are the most stirring of Manny's career and the ones that haven't been afforded much airplay like Manny's run on 24/7
Marquez I and II
