    lol, pacquiao has been the Ring Fighter of the month the last three or four times he fought. He has been on the cover of the magazine how many times in the last two years? More so than any other fighter. They CONSTANTLY have articles on Pacquiao, "who will he fight next?!" "how can Pac further his great legacy?!" "Pacquiao: Perfect & Getting Better!" etc etc etc.

    The Ring gives Pac a TON of praise, and rightfully so. Stating his last three fights were easy is stating the truth because he dominated. He wasn't involved in any wars or was ****** up. They were easy FOR HIM.

    And if Oscar has influence over The Ring, I haven't seen it yet. There have been a lot of articles talking about oscar, or mention oscar, and he gets criticized a lot in their articles. More so than just about any other fighter.

      It's so easy in hindsight to say Pac's opponents weren't challenges instead of giving him credit for kicking the hell out them and exceeding expectations. How do we know Pac won't do the same to Cotto?

              They do however pick Packy to beat Cotto.

              Its the feature story at the ring online.
              How can they diminish Pac, and yet they pick Pac to beat Coittous?

                Domminate fights tell me little about what happeans in a real fight, fights where any fighter dominate they dominate for very specific reasons and those reason almost never apply the same way again. None of those dudes forced Manny off of plan A or really even challenged him. If you can not understand what the ring is trying to say here think about it for a while and you may realize the point they have.

                To me all those fights are meaningless, unless you think Cotto will not present any sort of challenge. I think Manny is going to win but his last 3 fights play exactly 0% in my reasoning for thinking he will win.

                  Is it Pac's fault he made it so easy to beat his last 3 opponents.

                    Let say Pac beat Cotto by KO or wide UD then he face Mayweather. The Ring mag will say again that Cotto is not the same fighter anymore and he never face a tough opponent like PBF.
