    Why does Pacquiao get a pass fighting Valero as P4P

    His division is loaded and he just had a dominate performance! Why is there not uproar about his "handpicking"?

        why don't you complain if 3-4 years go by and manny still hasn't fought a #1 or #2 at lightweight?

        how long ago did floyd jump to 147 and fought sharmba mitchell?

        who has he fought since then? refresh my memory.

            Almost every champion usually takes a handpicked opponent for his first title defense, and most of them take a lot weaker looking opponent than Edwin Valero. What exactly is your problem with this choice anyway? Every other major lightweight is tied up with other fights.

              Im a Pac fan and I bthink this mismatch is a waste of time. Unfortunatly, Pac haters want this bfight because they believe 24-0 (24) will get it done against Pac. Personaly I'd like to see Pac fight a top 15 lightweight just to make sure he's acclimated to the weight, then take on the best of the best 135 hasw to offer.

              After Manny finishes with that punching bag Valero his detractors will jump all over him again saying Valero hadn't beat anybody to begin with. I can't wait. That **** makes me laugh!

                his problem has nothing to do with manny or valero.

                his problem is his daddy retired from boxing and he has nothing to talk about.

                i could be wrong though.......

                    Everyone in his division is fighting, and I'd much rather him be active. I hate when fighters arent active. **** kills me.
