This is one of the reasons that I don't rank Floyd's perfect record ahead of Manny's like a lot of people.
They are close in status, to me
Manny's been robbed probably 4x or more in his career.
That's what happens when you don't get to fight in your home country all the time.
If Manny only fought who he wanted to fight, when he wanted to fight them, in the Phillippines, he'd probably be undefeated, too,.
You have to take all of that into account
Pac's peeps can't afford to see their hero
To add, Pac's resume is flimsy AF
If a challenger wants that title, They should GO and take it :boxing:
What's next, champs helping out with training techniques :dunno:
Make sure they are booked into the best hotels :dunno:
"Every fight should be on neutral ground :crying:............."
Man the whole Pacquiao debate is never gonna die, people are still arguing like it happened yesterday. Honestly half these “experts” change their tune depending on the hype. If you really wanna settle stuff like that, live stats and live odds during the fight tell you way more than biased reactions. I’ve been following fights through the Stake app lately — grabbed it at https://stake-canada.com/app/ where the official Android/iOS download is, and it shows live betting swings in real time, which kinda exposes what’s actually happening. Makes the whole “he clearly won” talk way less emotional and way more grounded.

I thought it was a close bout it could’ve gone either way to me. And the championship rounds clearly went to Barrios.
A draw was a fair decision, I don’t see the outrage or the cry of robbery.
People are just too nostalgic and wanted Pacquiao to win so bad, so they’ll claim robbery. No robbery here. It was a close and competitive fight.
Well most people think it was a robbery.

But Manny could have been knocked stone dead and these people would still claim he was robbed/won, to them they still go on like he should be undefeated, most annoying fanbase ever.
Haney believed that the 46 YEARS OLD won the fight.

Cherrios was supposed to be an easy win..........
Yes it was just tune up fight for a 46 YEARS OLD, 4 years retired and with just only 2 months of preparation.
A fringe "champ" has people losing their minds :boxing:
Can't wait to see who Pac's next pick is
I would love the 46 YEARS OLD to fight WBA champion romero next for an easy win.
I didn't mean to bully you :(
Ok. This embarrassing one sided destruction has gone on long enough.
I'm going to save you from yourself by ending it.
Also, it got boring AF !!!
See you after Pac's next cherry pick :wave:
I know I embarrass you but that's ok you can move on. :beerchug:
