only fighter that has figured me out
By Chris Williams: WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao has had a world of problems in his three fights against Juan Manuel Marquez and he should feel himself incredibly lucky that he doesn’t have three losses to show for those fights against Marquez because there’s more a few boxing fans who believe that Pacquiao deserved to win none of the fights.
Pacquiao said to ****** “My trainer Freddie Roach has said many times that Juan is the only smart one out there; the one fighter who has figured me out. I know the fans want to see a fourth fight between us, and I can understand why. Right now, I can only focus on the task at hand.”
Pacquiao won a controversial decision over Marquez in his last fight, and he had the chance to clear that up by fighting an immediate rematch against Marquez. However, Pacquiao thought that boxing fans wouldn’t see it as an interesting fight, so instead he’s facing one of his promoter Bob Arum’s recent signees Tim Bradley on June 9th. The move will likely cost Pacquiao a lot of money because a fight between Pacquiao and Bradley likely won’t bring in anywhere close to then same kind of numbers that a fight between Pacquiao and Marquez would.
Additionally, Pacquiao also could have made a huge amount of money if he had simply agreed to fight WBA junior middleweight champion Miguel Cotto at a catchweight of 150lbs, instead of deciding that he wouldn’t go above 147 in order to take the fight. Cotto decided he’d already given into Pacquiao once by fighting him at a catchweight handicap in 2009, and he didn’t want to give Pacquiao an advantage by fighting him at 147 and end up being weakened by taking off the weight against. Now Pacquiao has to settle for the tough Bradley, but he won’t likely make anywhere close to the kind of cash he could have gotten for a fight against Cotto or Marquez.
Marquez isn’t the only one that’s figured out Pacquiao’s style. Erik Morales obviously did because he beat him in 2005. Pacquiao avenged the defeat by beating a weight drained Morales in two separate bouts, we saw what happened to Pacquiao when facing a non-weight drained Morales.

Dont use triangle theories again, just cos JMM can fight southpaws dont mean floyd can.
Floyds still not ready for Pac, and is researching Pac more.
well floyd is undefeated against southpaws .just saying
Marquez is not the only fighter who figured you out, Morales was actually the first and even Mosley exploited some of your flaws but was too old to pull the trigger.
MOSLEY DIDNT DO ANYTHING BUT RUN AROUND THE RING...SURE MANNY CANT CUT THE RING OFF FOR SH1T.BUT Mosely didnt exploit nothing
Mosley come on, Mosley ran like a big PU$$mosley can see...when he throws those arm jabs it is his way of saying, 'that's where I'd of hit you with my right 8 years ago'
:rofl:

You cannot do that, yes it was a great win by Morales but it's not right to totally downplay Manny's win afterwards. Yes Morales went up to LW because of weight issues but it made him slower in the process, he f****ing lost to David Diaz!!!
Well everyone agrees Pac's career above 130 is pretty much nothing but catchweights and cherrypicks. Best in the business under 130...total ****ing scam above it.
Morales had moved up to 135 after he beat Pacquiao partly because he could no longer make the weight.Pac new Morales had trouble making the weight comfortably,instead of moving up to lightweight to take on Morales Pac made Morales come down to 130 which weight drained him.

Floyd has beaten every southpaw he has faced. Soooooooo. Floyd does everything better than JMM, add superior speed, ring IQ and accuracy.
How is Pac gonna get inside on Floyd????
Everyone gets cut, swells and bruises differently. Faces rarely ever tell the stoey of who won
How come the all powerful Manny couldnt KD a blown up Marquez
Don't use logic. I think you already know all he's gonna do is revert back to saying Floyd is scared. Lol

If they think JMM has him figured out wait till Floyd makes him look like a B level fighter just like he made JMM look .

Pacroid=catchweight king
The mexicutioner would imply that he beats Mexicans but he lost to Morales and Marquez.... three times.
Hold on to that dream, I know it take away a bit of your pain. :lol1:
:wave:
:lol1: didn't Morales fight Maidana with 1 eye? didn't he go on to take almost half the rounds?
why include Maidana?
was he part in the Pacquiao-Morales Trilogy?
we were just compairing the 2..
or wanna try to pit Maidana to Pac..:fingersx:
we saw what happened to Morales when facing a non-one-eyed Pacman
without that ****ty blood ruining his vision..

why fight the dude for the third if he was drained in the second?
does he want to commit suicide?..
its just plain stupidity..
or just without logic from a body that hates..
Boxing doesnt exist like it used to before. Too many people use weight classes to make excuses left right and centre.
Its not about wins and losses now, only talk about weight classes and being drained and bloated.
Last I checked those 3 fights were fought in the same weight class.
:twak:
:smashfrea
