My thing is this, and guess what, he is a tough competitor, I made smart investments, he's a helluva fighter, without god none of this would have been possible, in the sport of boxing anything can happen, millions of dollars, 9 figure paydays, I'm a cash cow, Al Haymon has done a helluva job. Surround myself with smart business people. It's not Pay per view, it's Mayper view. Bugatti. 50 cars in LA, when you get to this level, a certain level, things change. Multiple businesses, I'm into real estate, generational wealth, a true champion can bounce back from a loss, I've never lost, a young strong tough Lion, the money team, the past present and future of sports entertainment, it's different when it's an event of this magnitude. I'd like to thank all of the legendary fighters who paved the way, I own property all over the world, this is my private jet. Everything paid for, and guess what ... it's about making smart investments.

how do you refute someone that thinks pac cherry picked oscar when oscar was the a-side and picked pac? is this a knowledgeable person at all? they even say oscar was totally washed up at 35 and that floyd fought oscar at age 34 lol. clearly trolling. totally washed up in one year! after that viscous floyd beatdown maybe!
how do you refute someone who thinks pac drained hatton and who thinks hattons normal weight was 147? his normal weight was 140. he moved up to fight floyd. clearly trolling with wrong information.
then they lied saying floyd offered pac a 40 million dollar flat fee with a 60/40 split of the ppv. cept it was a 40 million dollar flat fee with no ppv! they also left out the context where pac said he would take any testing and thats when the flat offer was presented to kill the fight. stuff like that is important if you are going with the whole pac ducked the fight over drug testing angle cause floyds actions show that wasnt the reason it didnt happen. money ultimately killed the fight after floyds first bluff. a reasonable person would present accurate facts and make arguments based off of those, not make up fake facts and then argue off of those fake facts.
saying how pac fighting the lineal champ in his home country is a bum fight because the poster has never heard of the guy? good stuff?
saying pac made a career fighting floyd leftovers cept in 71 fights hes only fought 3 ex floyd opponents or 4 percent of his fights. floyd has fought 2 ex pac opponents or 4 percent of his fights. basically the same thing? he didnt fight a lot of ex floyd opponents to begin with? etc...etc...
its strange how this person spent so much time being wrong. good trolls are vague and just say things like he fought all bums, hes a cheater, but when you actually say hattons weight was 147...i mean that just exposes you as not very knowledgeable. or just a bad troll maybe?Comment

Every great professional fighter through history -- well at least certainly in the recent era (and by "recent" I mean the last several decades), are "manufactured" products on some level. You can say that about all of them. Fighters are more often than not carefully matched. The risk vs reward is almost always weighed. Boxers very often won't fight certain guys until they're ripe for the pickings so to speak. A-sides will use that to their advantage to gain certain advantages (like catchweights). At the end of the day it's a business and it is almost always treated as such.
But average fighters don't become mega stars like Pacquiao. You can't take Jessie Vargas, a solid and very respectable boxer in his own right, and "manufacture" him into a boxing superstar. You have to be a tantalizing talent. Pacquiao is a special, generational talent. Mayweather was a special, generational talent. Canelo is a special, generational talent. Roy Jones. Etc.
I don't understand why we always feel the need to tear down these guys. Enjoy them. Enjoy the greatness. After all it's just entertainment at the end of the day. It's not that serious, obsessing over boxers like this to the point of hatred and the hatred of that boxer's fans. Yes certain fans can be obnoxious and they are best left ignored. But enjoy the fighters. Even if you don't root for them.
Have a good rest of the day.Comment
