PAC back up on top.....you guys kill me with your blindness. He fought Rios coming off a loss and I'll give him credit for beating Bradley....who most agree is just an average boxer. With that said he's setting himself up to fight Marquez or Alvarado. Think about that for a second. If Alvarado beats Marquez he'll fight The All great Pacman. Give me a break. Alvarado is in the same category of a Rios type fighter. C class level fighter. Nothing more. And you guys rave about this dude like he's some sort of beast.
mayweather had nothing in his arsenal to stop maidana's assualt. it seems mayweather is only effective from midrange. take that away from him and he cracks under pressure. defense alone can't win fights.
pacquiao may not be the same beast he once was but he's still an elite offensive machine. mayweather lost to a C level fighter, imagine what pacquiao could do.

Cracked under pressure.... You mean stood his ground....used his intelligence...looked for openings and cracked back. If Floyd cracked under pressure as you suggested...he would have folded ...pulled a Duran "No Mas"...and called it quits. People on here question Floyd's heart. He is tuff as they come. Sorry bro
I'm a big Cotto fan and I was rooting for him in his revenge match against Margarito. When Cotto wanted to he boxed circles around Margarito showing great lateral movement. I would get mad when he would suddenly stop and stand right front of Margaritio and take unnecessary punches. Just my take!!!!
members of Ortiz' team were also exchanging verbal shots at Team Mayweather. From what I saw they initiated it the smack talking. Watch the actual weigh in. People are constantly taking shots at mayweather as if Ortiz' team is a bunch of angels.

answer this question....If Floyd beats Pac how is pac greater?????????? at the end of the day Pac comes up with a lost and Floyd wins. That makes Floyd bette,r greater all the above. Peoples logic sometimes is amazing.
I actually like Pac...he's like a gunslinger.....comes out with all pistols blazing. The thing is he's reckless... definitely not invincible...
Dude why to you concern yourself with another grown man's finances. You sit at home and wish the worst for Floyd yet he has made investment and business financial decisions to place him at the pinnacle making him the highest paid athlete in all of sports entertainment. Paquiao could have done the same thing but he didn't. So now look at how many years Paquiao's been in the sport....has endorsements...commercial...made millions and has nothing to show for it. Instead of wishing ill will on Floyd... Maybe you should mind your own business or pray that Manny wises up and surround himself with trustworthy people that will make him money instead of stealing it from him. Simple minded people. You dudes are so jealous of Floyd cause he has his finances in order and wish nothing but the worst for a successful black man. Keep wishing and hating you dumb mofos
For your sakes I hope Paquaio never becomes President of the Phillipines. I really respect Manny as a person and his skills as a boxer. But he would never beat Mayweather and if this man can't manage his own fiances what makes you think he could manage a country. Say what you won't but at least Floyd has put a team in place that made him the richest athlete in all sports entertainment and he's future is set years and life after boxing. You saying he will broke is you wishing the worst for the man because you're jealous.
Damn I love racist. It must kill you to have to smile in "ghetto" folks face all day everyday because you're scared you'll get your ass kicked if you told them how you really feel.
I like that:boxing:
hahahahaha, lets be real, Neither guy ducked anyone. Bob Arum owns Pac, and Floyd wants to promote his fights and pay people out. Its all about business. We should just stop bashing fighters for ducking and dodging because its all about business. Floyd and Manny would of fought a long time ago if Pac was a free agent. Arum owns Pac and why would he give up his cash cow. Its just one of those things. As soon as Cotto was free from Arum, Floyd fought him. Floyd will never fight Bradley either as long as he is with Arum. Its can't happen. The way Floyd positions himself to make so much money on the front and back end of fights, he's just not going to fight anyone where he can't have that level of control. Its not about ducking and dodging. He's not going to let Arum dictate anything to him, especially when his promotions make more than Arums.
Like Tupac says, "Its nothing personal, its strictly bidness baby, strictly bidness."
Thank you:usa2:
Finally someone with some common sense!!!!
this is a moot point!!!!! Arum.....Pacman .....and especially Roach wanted no parted of Mosely. It's on video. They had every opportunity to make this fight. Even if with a catch weight handicap they refused to fight Mosley. No one was talking that shit about Mosley being over the hill at this point. In fact if Roach would have thought Mosely was to old and slow he would have definetely made the fight.
Can you make 141-142 Sergio?"
"Ehh.. no? I can make 150"
"Ok, no fight then"
"you fought Margarito at 150"
"you're not Margarito, you're too good"
yeaaaaa I like that
arum and manny tried damn near everything in the book to get kfc out of his chicken coop and into the ring aka the deepfryer! !!!
manny dropped the lawsuit
agreed to full testing gave in to the location
agreed to give kfc a little more money
and yet KFC FLEW THE COOP and ducked and doged the congress man !! NOW ASK YOURSELF WHY :boxing:
that was a crock of shit.....arum fed us a bunch of crap...no intentions what so ever making this fight happen. show proof of lawsuit being dropped. Manny never agreed to any drug testing and still wanted 50 /50 purse.
The video was Floyd speaking to his fans reaffirming that he will meet Pacman in 2011 and dominate him in the ring. He is very confident that his boxing skills are on a different level. I was very surprise as to Pacman and Roach's reaction to the video. You would think they're reaction would be, "wait till we meet in that square circle". Instead both Roach and Pacman were quoted saying they don't need the Mayweather fight. People has criticize Floyd for not speaking out about wanting to fight Pacman and that he's scared. The video right there states he can't wait to fight Pacman and what he plans on doing to him. I'm tired of watching Pacman interviews trying to squirm out of why he feels Floyd is scared of facing him. All these journalist cater to Pacman and refused to ask the right corrections. For example why if he believes Margartio knew his hands were wrapped with a foreign substance, which was capable of inflicting great bodily damage to fellow boxer, why did he take this fight? Another question they should ask but don't is why are they fighting for this vacant title, but at a catchweight?
Did you read the interview?? I don't see how you came to that conclusion.
And I don't know how you came to your conclusion floyd fans won't agree with what Naziim said. In fact he was on point on how floyd haters for decades have wanted and prayed for Floyd to lose. Every fight you haters sit there making yourself believe this man is finally going to lose and he doesn't. He continues to win and rack up victories and the haters can't stand it. So they bash him anyway they can. Along comes Bronner and he gets beat. Even though its not Floyd Mayweather it's close enough. He'll suffice. The haters will continue hating... Easy Money.... cas my boy is financially set for life laughing all the way to the bank.
Marcos either won the fight or it was a draw, but the wide points margin was bull. As for the Floydie fans, you need to step back and take a deep breath. Your guy was fouling right and left, ordered Weeks around basically telling him what to do, whined so much he overruled the NSAC on Maidana's gloves, blah blah, blah... and now we hear rumblings about a payoff to Maidana for using the bogus crappy gloves.
IOW Your guy is a pathetic whining little baby who will soon lose his 0. And it could not happen soon enough. He gets ALL the breaks, the vast majority of the money, chooses his opponent, venue, ring, you name it. And unless he gets KOd, he wins the decision... by a wide margin... whether he actually DID win by a wide margin or not.
But yeah, any Floydie fan will tell you they wanna fair fight. B.S. !!
Sorry but lil Floydie did win the fight so sit back and pray that either Maidana with his lack of skills gets a rematch or some other bad ass dude comes along...maybe Oscar Delahoya can come out of retirement....reach into his safe and pull out that little blue print he thinks won him the fight a decade ago.... Basically your opinions means little because the in the eyes of the people that count... Your man Chino came up a little short. Reminded me when Oscar fought Floyd and bullied Floyd into the ropes and started wailing on Floyd's body as if he was really doing something. Even Floyd looked at Oscar and laughed at him. Again the pro Dela Hoya crowd was yelling, screaming going bezerk. When it was all said and done....the judges were not impress with that bull ****. And remember Oscar Delahoya was the face of boxing at this time not Floyd. So if it was close fight then Oscar being the A side would have gotten the nod. Yea it was competive in the first half of the fight just like it was with Chino on Saturday. Once Floyd made his adjustments by the 2nd half of the fight he controlled fight where the Judges gave him the victory.
LMFAO the floyd fans are already scared. look at them talking this and that already lmfao.
Nothing finalized was just an opinion an advisor had, relax floyd fans dont grab that rope just yet play it cool.
Dude are you straight up senile. This advice is coming straight from Paquiao's own team. Finally someone is admitting what most people with common sense already knew....Bob Arum being one of the main ROADBLOCKS. Hell Bob Arum and Michael Koncz are responsible for Paquiao's financial demise right now and yet people like you blindly put the blame on Mayweather.
Right now...at this very moment...Floyd is in his room thinking of another reason or excuse NOT to fight Manny. There is a way this fight can happen. Manny is gunning for Floyd. Once the red tape is cut...No more excuses.
Manny is coming for you Floyd.
Yea just like he sat in a room and thought of an excuse not to fight Cotto and Canelo..... You're the one that's dreaming. You probably hoping that this fight never takes place because Paquiao would be totally outclassed. Then you would have to disappear from this site forever.
after pac frees himself from bobbby , what then , he neeeds to sign with TMT?....lol.
floyd b1tchass will not fight pac ever , we've seen the pattern many many times......
What pattern or facts are you simply ignoring. You mean how simple it was for Marquez to get the Mayweather fight done or even the Cotto fight. Cotto leaves Top Rank and the fight is quickly and quietly made within a week with NO ROADBLOCKS. The nonsense you guys spew on these sites is straight up ridiculous.
