This is the dumbest floydspastic thing to come about in a while. Talk about comparing oranges to motorbikes.:dunce:
oranges to motorbikes??? Well at least you didn't response with he moved up 8 divisions. Here you go....:bottle:
How is he going to fight at MW? Pac trains hard, down to mid 140s by weigh in.
While Duran drank beer, did coke and sparred cheesecakes when he was fighting at middleweight.
Now I see Duran did all that stuff and still won the WBC Middleweight Championship and Cotto did the same thing last weekend, trains hard, and is trained by Roach but Pac can't do it. That's right Pac is 5'7 and fights at 147.
Body type dictates how much weight could be carried. Pac has huge calfs for his size but he isn't very wide at the hips or shoulders. He is 5' 5 3/4" and in top condition is about 142-43 and it took a long time and maturation to build to that weight. If your in top condition at that weight you can only hydrate about 5 to 7 pounds and remain in fight condition.
So to answer the OP question he would have to fight at middleweight giving away a lot of weight, even more than Cotto did against Sergio.
Can you understand that a middleweight making 160 then rehydrating to 166-70 would leave Pacman 20 pounds lighter. Not a wise choice when he's in a position to do what he wants to.
Ray.
Excuses, excuses, excuses
Pac is 5'5
And what the **** does height have to do with it?
Well Pac is not 5'5 and if I have to explain the height thing than you must don't see the comparison between Duran, Pac, and Cotto. Now the word dense can be used.
Why bring up pacquaio. Won't we bring up every boxer and ask them why they don't move up all the way up to heavyweight and fight vitali and wlad. According to you that we should just say **** weight division and just let pacquaio move up.
**** why pacquaio can't move up and fight cotto. **** if we going to fault pacquaio than we should ask cotto and floyd to move up and fight Andre ward and Carl froch. **** Marquez should move up in weight and be a fat slob and fight GGG at 160.
Also its not people defending pacquaio. Its that you make a dumbass thread lowered everybody's IQ by spreading your stupidity.
I see how quick people judge people on here if you ask a boxing question. Calling them all types of names. You made a dumbass thread lowered everybody's IQ by blah, blah,blah....
Pac moved 8 divisions... isnt that enough? Cant believe stupid thread people can start. Why wont fight Floyd fight Hopkins like Hopkims asked. Why didnt he fight Martinez when he kept calling. For the same obvious reason that theres weight class for a reason. Are u tbat dumb?
Boy the excuses are out today. Dumb??? Not at all, but you need to proof read before you post. Here's a bottle for you :bottle:
Mike Tyson 5 10 heavyweight, Paul Williams 6 1 welterweight height and weight are two very different things.
Pac could win a middleweight title if he had the right opponent for example Pac would murder the Martinez that Cotto fought. Pac is naturally smaller than Duran and also fought in more weight classes.
Also I disagree that Pac is a better boxer than Hands of Stone. Silly thread.
Silly thread??? I'm comparing guys close to Pac in height and fought at welterweight and moved up. But since you said Paul Williams, yes he was 6'1 and so was Iran Barkley and Duran won. Next excuse?
Really... :bryce:
Yeah really he did, and next time you want to call somebody a b**** next time remove that pic in your avatar of a naked man before you do it.
I thought Tito & De la Hoya was going to beat Hopkins and man I was wrong. Prime Hopkins would destroy Prime Pac Man. You see Tito and Oscar didn't want a rematch.
Lets not forget the kid just finished puberty and Floyd made him cut to 152. It was expected. Not very impressive in my eyes. He never hurt the kid, and the kid walked away without a scratch on his face.... much like Maidana did.
I think you meant to say Floyd walked away without a scratch on his face. Some of the kid face was puffy and swollen. Catch weight or not the kid shouldn't of been in their with Floyd in the first place. Not in the same league!!!
Shannon Briggs on 02/06/2007 was the last time and here are the last five after him Hasim Rahman, Lamon Brewster, John Ruiz, Roy Jones Jr, Chris Byrd. Very sad!!!
I know Manny wants that fight now just because of the IRS thing. I'm just saying that because you don't want to play around with the IRS. Step to the side Arum, even Don King had to do it for Tyson-Spinks and that was before Don King was making some serious money off of Tyson. Arum you made your millions off of him help your friend (money cow) out.
How can Amir Khan get a 50/50 split with Mayweather if his highest pay day was $1.5 million + Plus share of TV rights boxing (Lamont Peterson). Don't Mayweather gets over 30 million a fight plus share of ppv and gate. I say 80/20 is fair. Khan hasn't did anything lately to get close to 50%.
This is a good one right here but I think Big George would of knocked Tyson out. He would of killed him with the jab and that would been the set up for the short right hand. A lot of people forget Tyson scared most of his opponents before they got in the ring so they didn't have a game plan. Big George would of stood up to him. Just my take
I had no doubt that Holyfield would lose. Tyson can't box he can fight and intimidate his opponents before they got into the ring. Holyfield out boxed him just like Buster Douglas did and if they would of fought the first time when it was scheduled Holyfield would of KO him not TKO. Still like Tyson as a fighter though
I can't wait. It's going to be a good fight. I think it's going to be a split decision for margarito so there can be a rematch. Everbody will be pissed and say Pac was robbed and it will be more money for both of them. Arum got his hand in the mix and just cause they are not in Las Vegas dont mean you cant get robbed by the judges. It's all about the money now not the art of boxing.
I would of love to been the person or persons that bet heavily on Buster Douglas ko Mike Tyson and I know somebody did because when they did a crowd camera shot some people were jumping like crazy. Haye might do it if he stick and move but don't go toe to toe with Wlad or he's going to sleep
Hayes won't be retiring now. David your a boxer not a player, a player wouldn't get in this situation. Your wife is older than you too and its your fault (can anybody say half). I hope it was good and worth it.
Don King best con artist in boxing period
I like both fighters but Strum haven't fought no big names since del hoya but should of gotten the nod in that fight. Mayorga last fight with Sugar Shane was a slug fest and if Mayorga would of stayed away in the 12th round he would of won that fight. He had Sugar Shane number all night. I think Mayorga should jump on Strum quick and see how the chin is. Strum has the jab but he 's going to fight Mayorga fight that night. Mayorga with the win.
