He hasnt faced an elite ww coming off of a win since 2009 in cotto..since then the last top 5 ww he faced hadnt won in 2 years in Mosley...since then he faced Bradley(moving up from 140) Jmm(0 wins at 147 unranked) now Rios (who is 1-1 at 140 against fvcking alvarado) why is this ok for Manny? seriously this is disgraceful for a so called elite fighter..dude does not fight top ww's period
Always?? Now thats a bit silly.
I think he means his WW run, not his career. Pac is one of the dying class of stars who earned their way up crowd vs the hyped up fighting no one crowd. Though like Floyd once they hit the top, they've been a lot more choosey in opponents.
Who is, though?
Outside of Floyd? No one really. There's couple great, a bunch of goods....that's about it. Take Floyd out its an exciting division well matched...but with him there it's sort of a everyone and Floyd thing. Manny is still better than almost everyone else though. Bradley might be tough in a rematch and other than him and Floyd I don't put anyone else above him.
Pacman has always been smoke and mirrors. His welterweight greatness was fabricated. That said Floyd/Khan is still terrible. Bashing Pacman won't ever change that fact.

I consider him the 3rd ranked ww. Floyd (lineal champ, although some question that), Tim, JMM, Manny. Seeing as IMO he beat Bradley its fair to say he' still an elite fighter.
The problem is TR seems to be having a inhouse revolving door string of fight amongst the guys at 140 and 147. He could fight a network nuetral true ww like a kell brook or a shawn porter but that doesn't seem like bob is interested in doing that.
If not a true ww, at least fight provodnilkov since he won his last fight. Then after that maybe its time to just accept the very short end of the stick and take the $40 mil, no ppv to fight floyd.
i'd favor pacquiao over a lot of welterweights. a lot of 140 lbers, too.
he's only at WW for the money. he could easily make 140 lbs.
he's absolutely "elite" looking at the rest of the division. he holds a decisive win over bradley, the best WW not named mayweather. he'd smash guerrero, brook, alexander, broner, thurman.
the only WW i'd pick to run away against pacquiao is floyd mayweather. everybody else he probably still beats. i'm actually shading pacquiao in the marquez V fight as well. styles make fights, but marquez legs are really looking slow. pacquiao would be best suited to box against marquez. sounds crazy, but angles nullify timing.
Thought i'd reiterate this question. Which top 10 Welterweight should the Pacman be fighting? Surely as a fangirl who claims Mayweather doesn't duck and cherrypick, you'd not want to duck something yourself.

Wait....you don't consider Bradley a top welter?
man you got some problems.
Still no replys challenging the TS's argument. I guess if you can't back up any points then resort to name calling:D
I challenged the TS to name 1 Welterweight who Pacquiao should fight, TS ran out of his own thread :lol1:
How about you?
Its called a rebuttal my good man, obviously the thread is aimed at Manny to degrade him. So I took a shot at Floyd in the same manner. Deal with it.
You bringing up your question is irrelevant as well, you could of just contributed instead of responding to this keyboard warrior.
"Clearly the TS didn't ask the correct question" What in the actual ****. So are you making up questions for him?
And to answer one of your quesitons in a previous post, there is no boxer that will "trouble" Manny more or less. Manny has seen EVERY style in the ring since his flyweight days, just because he doesn't face "master boxers" like Floyd doesn't mean he hasn't faced boxers.. Manny has dealt with every style and people claim you show Manny a little movement he fails, but he got through Ledwaba when he was very raw with little skill and beat a great boxer-puncher in Miguel Cotto.
Thank you sir. That last paragraph was the response I wanted from you. I'm not making up questions for anyone. I felt the way I asked the question could have brought more positive feedback/debate than how TS went about it, which was clearly aimed to degrade manny. At least you gave a good response.
Read my post idiot. Clearly the TS didn't ask the correct question. You still sit up here ignoring what I asked you. Then try to sling around name calling. Typical. Keyboard warriors at their best.

larry stop being so buthurt
pac is a ***** hes protected and he wont stand up to a promoter that screws him out of $ and the most importatn fight of this era....
rational fans know this
but floyd is a child who loses his **** beats his gf, is extremly e=insecure and childish, admits to being a coward and is just as afraid of that fight happening...
honestly would we give a **** if they both bowed out of there respective fights and signed to fight eachother????? they could do it any day now. but both of em dont.
ur idol the guy u look upto is an embarasment
fcuk em both

Why are you bringing this up when the question clearly was about manny? Is this all you die hard fans for Floyd and manny do? deflect questions? People state who they want mayweather to fight 140 up to 160. Why is it so hard for you guys to pick a boxer you think would give an entertaining / dangerous fight for manny? Nobody is talking about resumes.

I can't believe people still respond to OP's threads. OP needs a twitter account to post this BS.
Yea I don't know man, I give up. Can't even have a normal debate on these forums without people bringing up irrelevant sh*t.
