Has Pacquiao Avoided Fighting African Americans?

[MARKBNLV]

You can call my post whatever you want. But I do know more about boxing then you. Manny is not trash but I do think he is over rated and he will get exposed the day he meets any fighter like Guzman, Campbell, Mayweather, Mosley.

I agree 100 percent that lost to morales was not that long ago people have really short memorys.

Mayweather and Shane I agree but Nate Cambell and Joan Guzman?

It's okay, now I understand. Guys like Mayweather, Jr., Guzman, Ray Robinson, Sugar ray Leonard, Campbell, Roy Jones, Bernard Hopkins, Pernell Whitaker, Evander Holyfield, Lennox Lewis, Meldrick Taylor, Muhammad Ali, were not exciting fighters huh?? But guys that got hit like Margarito, Jerry Quarry, Scott LeDoux, Gerry Penalosa, LaMotta, Marciano, Gatti are exciting fighters. Boxing is like music. Either you have rhythm are you don't. There are a lot of Puerto Rican fighters that have rhythm. Ivan Calderon, master boxer, Boxing is an art form. You guys sound just like the kid that don't like it because he can't play with the bigger kids so he wants to take his ball and leave. No matter how you look at it and this is not about race but White trainers train differently then black, mexican, puerto rican, cuban, etc. They all look at boxing differently

All true! but whats wrong with this picture
"Guys like Mayweather, Jr., Guzman, Ray Robinson, Sugar ray Leonard, Campbell, Roy Jones, Bernard Hopkins, Pernell Whitaker, Evander Holyfield, Lennox Lewis, Meldrick Taylor, Muhammad Ali"
Someone in here, regardless of similar styles as the others, does not belong in the same sentence.

Generally speaking...that's the number one reason why Mr boat buyer gets hate. For chasing money fights instead of "legacy" fights.

I think the Hatton fight did improve MP legacy. Unlike Floyd he fought Rick at his best weight, and Manny, unlike Floyd is smaller then Hatton. It also got Him another Lineal title.

As for the DLH fight they were both the smaller guys in the fight and Floyd fought him at LMW to become a 6 division champ so even if it was boring i think people should give him a little cred of it even if i would have given him more to fight cotto or mosley. As for the Pac-DLH fight manny had to move up 2 weight classes to fight a guy that was 5 in taller then him. So even if DLH was weight drained pac was still the midget in the fight so i think a little cred should be given.

A bout with Guzman or Raheem is not a Fight...IT IS A DAMN CHASE!!!

Pacquiao will do all the fighting and definitely the chasing!!!!

Mayweather....that's the "only" African American who deserves a fight and Pacquiao will chase his into hell....

Yeah, Pac is really terrified of Joan Guzman and Zahir Raheem, as he should be.

I think that the boxing demographic in weight classes is different now.

Hispanics dominate the lower classes.
Blacks dominate the middle classes.
Eastern Europians will dominate the HW from now on because the wall is down.

Thats how its going to be.

So no Pac has not avoided African americans.

Jmm is as defensive, elusive and as skilled a counterpuncher as any "african american" boxer.

This thread fails

No your post has failed miserably. African Americans have great handspeed which makes them better counter punchers
