why is pacman beibg praised for the same things floyd is hated for

[TheSurgeonMDMPH]

Pacquiao fighting DLH at 147 > Fighting Campbell or Diaz

Floyd vs Margarito or Cotto > Fighting De La Hoya

WTF? Contradiction, double talk, or just not knowing wtf you are talking about! maybe you were just being sarcastic!

hell pacman ducked the entire lightweight division

Pacquiao defeated the lightweight champion. That's like beating everyone in that whole division.

Humility. It's hard not to like Pacman, it's very easy to dislike Floyd no matter what he accomplished.

Exactly! Pacquiao is a very humble person. Its definitely hard not to like the guy. He always fights for the honor of his country. Floyd fights for money and talks too much trash. Pacquiao does not back down and is an exciting fighter to watch. Floyd's fights are boring and all hype. Both did beat Dela Hoya, but Pacquiao did it in a more exciting way. Lets face it... he made the guy quit. Floyd won by a boring split decision. Thats my take on the subject.

Huh, I do like Pac, how can anyone not like him. You seem to forget about the first Morales fight, funny how people always want to forget about that one. Soto is naturally bigger and fresher than Morales. Im basing it on style and other things.

I give Morales credit the close decision win against Pacman but you have to consider also that was his first fight at 130 and the contract not allowing him to wear the puncher's glove but instead the pillow gloves beside he not yet reach on his prime and fighting with just one eye. The 2nd and 3rd fight proved whos the better between them and given him the first official ko loss on his career will always outweight that close decision win. Soto or Valero on the other hand Pac supposed to fight if the Oscar fight did not push through. Any of them has a chance to win before but not this one who beat Oscar. Hes now evolved into a complete fighter that can box beautifuly, his ellusiveness, counterpunch accurately and so many things that missing in 1st Morales fight while Soto proved nothing to gets Pacs attention.

I think you're a good poster mate but all this Hatton ducked Floyd twice at 140 has yet to be proved by a credible source or link of some sort? All am hearing is rumours.

Saying something like that, you really should try to back it up pal.

The only belts Hatton had at 140 was the IBF,WBA ,IBO and Ring straps. Floyd went trough divisions looking for the guy with the WBC belt, winning that and then challenging guys in that weight class and so on.

It was brought up a while back and many have posted the interviews with "Ray Hatton" saying he turned down Floyd because it wasn't the right time for Ricky.

Dude stop being hypocrite... Manny don't need to prove himself in that weight... Let the lightweight prove themselve who's the best in there then call Manny... Manny is a big fish to fry mate...

more hypocrisy!

[MANGLER]

You're gettin sensitive on the PBF front lately Larry. A lotta cats just don't like your boy homey. It's nothin new. Why you mad bro?

[nelsoncm]

barrerra and morales are good no doubt and jmm..but flods had his big fights at 130-135 just like pacmans had his

Can't blame people for keeping Pac in a higher regard than Floyd.

Larry Merchant said it best-It's in the way he wins his fights.

[nelsoncm]

Floyd is an F1 car running at a safety car's speed.

Manny's a safety car at F1 speed.
