when im reading those posts, its funny how you guys diss Pac so excruciately
nowadays it looks like Floyd is ducking Pac with his outrageous money split demand
Manny had no prob fighting Floyd at any weight
Then, fans have no idea whatsoever that Pac can compete 3 to 4 divisions above his natural
They thought Manny would retire at lightweight
Don't get it twisted ; I respect the hell out of Manny.
The thread title and the way I was discrediting him was meant merely as a baiting tactic ; but my original point of them being nearly identical in size and weight, and that they should fight stands firm.
And how can Floyd be ducking Pacquiao right now? He's already scheduled to fight Marquez.
He put out the word just a few weeks ago or so that if Manny wanted it, he'd pay Marquez to step aside and they could get it on.
But Manny opted for the easier fight with Cotto. A guy he's going to wipe the damn floor with, no doubt.
And who cares about the financial demands of either guy?
Let them settle that bullshit, it's none of our concern. Our only concern should be seeing the two of them scrap, not counting their cash or negotiating their purse split.
Oh cmon, everyone knows Floyd contradicts himself
That step aside money is bullshit, he's just hyping his postponed fight with JMM
We will never see this fight unless Floyd let go of his egocentric delusion of not accepting below 50/50 split
You think if the fight goes deep Cotto is in trouble? Unless Pacquiao is dominating I don't see that as being the case. If Cotto hasn't been beaten up too much and manages to get Pacquiao in the deep water, I'm not liking Manny's chances.
Manny will def throw a lot of punches in diff. angles
& it will prob hit like 30-40% accuracy
Cotto is not an agile boxer, usually plants his feet where he gets
his power
Cotto gasses in late rounds
Pac will try to box, no way he would brawl
Cotto would throw mean jabs to keep Pac from moving
Cotto should stop Pac within 6 or else he will be in trouble
How bout Floyd?
i think he's into roids too, coz he was surrounded by his crackhead family
everyone says that he's a small welterweight yet he can't make the supposed
144 catchweight stipulation?
plus the fact that he has'nt slowed down in 2 years
sounds like sumthin's fishy bout this
Some people dont really get it. Julian Jackson didnt have the greatest resume yet he's still considered one the hardest punchers ever.
but still you have to factor in the quality of those he fought
if we go by your logic then Edwin Valero is the greatest KO artist of all time
My man, Im not putting down Marquez or Manny. In fact I'd probably pick both to beat Hamed head to head. But this doesn't blind me to Hameds power. IF Marquez was caught by Hamed the same way he was Pac, I have no doubt Naseem would have finished him.
Hamed's got insane power i admit
but how will you measure his power p4p? or Pac's?
by quality of KO's or by quality of opponents faced?
Agreed.
Its all good though, this has been a pretty entertaning thread that hasn't gotten to out of hand.
Cosign
we can agree to disagree, its all good though :fing02:
I got a question for you miron......if Hamed was able to hurt Marquez (had they ever fought) as Pacquiao did in their first fight, do you think he would have stopped him?
First, Marquez is not dumb enough getting careless knowing
that Hamed has 1 punch KO capability
he'll be the same like what Barrera did
And if ever JMM caught one tho, im pretty sure he'll get up eventually
JMM may be a sucker for flush KDs but still has the mentality to
turn around fights in his favor
lol, pacquiao fought him a year earlier, and what the **** where de la hoya and hatton? were they in their prime?
DLH was past prime i agree, but he's a middleweight cherrypicking a lightweight
Hatton was the lineal jr. welter
JMM prime was during MAB & 2nd Pac fight
2 fights later he's already past it
hey makaveli im still waiting for your proof u f*cken coward...
keep dodging me u bitch lmfao
LOL at you, you don't need proof
everyone here knows what kind of shit poster you are :lol1::lol1::lol1:
After the sadistic beating he took from the tijuana tornado, we all know Cotto and his ego took a big hit. This lead him to go into brief hiding, and resort to getting a shoulder full of tattoos along with freshly plucked eyebrows to try to reshape his identity. Problem is a much worse beating is waiting for Cotto, and this one will be at the hands of a FW. When this happens what will Cotto do? Will he get a Michael Jackson like face transformation, or will he resort to a sex change? Only time will tell, but expect him to do something crazy.
So you're tryin to be funny huh..........
..........oh wait that shit was funny :rofl::rofl:
Yep.
Either that or he has to take over his PR, because between Roach, that Gacal douchebag and Arum, its pretty hard to like the guy right now.
Yeah Gacal is an asshole, thorn in Pac's corner
Question, who thought it would? I do know that Mayweather vs JMM will sell more then Pacquiao vs Marquez I & II did.
then why was it postponed in the first place?
Dont compared nobody in this era to henry armstrong.. especially fighters who fight at catchweights
By your logic, Henry Armstrong should not be fighting above or lower his
own division
So does Duran, Leonard & Hearns etc........
lets hope that cotto wont be hospitalized u shouldnt wish that for anyone..forums shoulnt make u angry..these pictures are funny have some sense of humor :chomp:
Im not angry, can't u see my post im LOLing :lol1:
