Manny Pacquiao: Has He Sold Out ? and Is He Really The Best Pound For Pound?

i think all exciting fighters are overratted in terms of p4p status

That's my pick for number 1. Calzaghe is unbeaten. Pac is not.

no one's got a problem w/ that. that argument is being debated on everyday here. but agreeing wholly on the article is entirely different.

This is so ******, when Manny fought the Mexican Trio they were just barely out of their Primes, no more than Hagler was against Leonard. Manny has one of the best resumes out there and he fought in one of the deepest divisions of all time.

The fights he picked were simply the best at the time and some very very good fighters.

Sure Morales beat him the first time, but Manny knocked him out 2 times. Manny got BETTER in the next fight, Morales didn't randomly get "worse". In the third fight, Morales was past it, in the second fight he obviously knew what he was in for and is no different than Manny underestimating Morales the first time.

Joe hasn't fought anyone though, his resume sucks and he ducks fighters. If Manny was a middleweight he would have already fought Pavlik and Abraham 3 times, Hopkins and Jones being "stepping stones" for his resume..not his biggest wins.

Haters always say MAB/Morales/JMM were "old" only after PAC fought and beat them.... How convenient.... But, the FACT still remains that in exception of Morales 2 and 3 and MAB 2, all three fighters were on the top 10 P4P list when PAC fought them....... For those that can count, thats 4 fights with 3 guys on the top ten P4P....

How many fights has Cal had with a P4P fighter again???? 1? And, in that fight Cal got knocked down and almost lost a very close decision... So yeah, sure, Cal is certainly the top P4P king...lol

I think Pacman has beat most of the fighters in his past divisions if He can beat another lightweight no doubt that he shoulnt be regarded as a pound 4 pound best

After losing to Pacquiao the 1st time, Barrera goes on a 4 yr win streak. Beats Morales for the 130 wbc belt and defends it successfully several times against the best 130 had to offer. His only other loss being to Marquez and as controversial as Pacquiao's win over Marquez.

Morales supposedly completely shot in the 3rd Pacquiao fight follows up by knocking down and nearly beating David Diaz.

These just arent things shot fighters are capable of

[MANGLER]

Who the hell should rank ahead of him right now? Joe C is #2 comes he comes close, but doesn't quite cut it.

Lol. It Is A Lil Biased And Kinda Picking On Pacman, But He Got Point When He Says Pacman Always Follows Up Not So Great Performances With A Whitewashes. Has He Ever Taken An Immediate Rematch? Also Pacman Seems To Only Face Mexican Fighters Who I Must Admit Do All Have Similar Styles. Even Though I Think Marquez Is A Hella Of A Boxer.

U Gotta Admit There Some Truth To What He Says...atleast Worthy Of Tlaking About?

Those are excuses which mean nothing.

The fact of the matter is... Pac has fought legends and defeated them.

Americans are just downright dumb and insecure for creating threads like these.

Hello America isn't the center of the Universe.

Idiot.

Exciting is a skill that keeps boxing alive.

Not some idiot hopkins without honor and dignity fighting like a coward in the ring.

****** idiots.
