    There all gonna go where the money is. Thats just the way the cookie crumbles. But who do you think can really beat PAC right now. Please dont say soto... Guzman would be a good fight... but do you honestly think he can beat him? JMM doesnt want to even see PAC again.

      And preying on the weak? Common now... That's just absurd.

        The only part i agree with is that Pac is preying on a weak MAB on their 2nd fight.

        They should also point out, that even though their about the same age, JMM beat up an out of prime, wartorn, and washed up MAB. Comparing JMM's body to MAB, JMM is a few years younger.

          This fight should have been made a long time ago, Barrera himself has said he had an off night in there first fight. I believe he had an off night also, he looked like a slob. I want him to make good in this fight and go out with a win, but its going to take a hell of a good night of boxing to pull it off. He can't **** with manny, he has to box, at a distance, and just circle the entire fight.

          I don't want to get ahead of myself, but if Barrera and Morales both win there next fights, Barrera vs. Morales 4 ?

          I agree that Pac has taken it easy the last few fights, he could have fought Marquez instead he fought Solis, Morales biggest problem in the third fight was probably making weight. Though Morales looked better physically, he wasn't there mentally.

            Pac is just opppurtunistic. He fights all the big names- it's just that they aren't the same great fighters that they used to be. You can't hate on him for wanting to go after the biggest fights.

              just that it reads well and he made his point. you can't be pissed at Pacquiao for doing what he's done really because isn't that the goal of everyone? fight big money fights against guys you know you can destroy.

                when pacquiao fights mexicans at there best he always loses. thats why he lost to morales and marquez was robbed blind. there is a reason pac ducked marquez the true champ at 130 to fight barera who is wayyyyyyyyyyyy to old. it will be embarasing if barrera wins.

                  I agree with most of these points and I'm a Manny fan. I have mentioned some of this stuff in the past and agree with Manny taking on Barrera now when it only makes $$$. There's no reason to go after the man that just got beat by the man Manny should really be after...Marquez. Instead Manny will collect a worthless meaningless win and paycheck, or a humilation should he lose this. No point in this fight other than $$$. As far as Manny's competition, he's taken on tough guys, period. Regardless of where they stood previously before facing him or not, they were all tough hombres who didn't come facing Manny to lose. A lot of these guys Manny wasn't 100% facing them and still KOed them or won. I think it says a lot about Manny as well that he can still perform pretty decent for not conditioning or preparing 100% for every fight. Can't say that about a lot of other fighters.

                      i mostly agree he hasnt had a decent fight since the terrific competition he faced on a slightly post prime barrera and a great conditioned marquez....

                      i mean, wasnt pac supposed to walk rigt through morales like he didn against barrera and the 1 round against marquez?????, yet morales outboxes him.....

                      what makes it bad that he lost to morale sis that morales then went and looked like **** againt raheem...a la zab judah vs baldomir, but does pac get the hate mayweather got for fighting judah(after losing to baldomir) for still fighting morales??????no...... and it is billed as his second greatest victory.....

                      anyway, i really cant blame pac, thats where the money's at and i think he beats anyone now at 130(marquez has a chance if hes not too old), but theres no denying he has been fighting meaningless fights to really prove anything boxin-wise since marquez...

                      i just hate the double standard, even though im not a huge floyd fan.....
