    Who here would decline A side status if they felt they had the upper hand, bargaining wise ?!?!?!?

      You see, a guy like GGGeezer can go on for decades fighting the Kamil's of the sport and not age a day.
      Then you have guys like Marco who is in a war every fight.
      An old assed 29.

      Marco and Erik were the prototypical Pac opponent.
      You couldn't draw up better guys.
      Face first and easy to hit.
      Yes, Marco had some boxing skills but could always be drawn into standing still exchanges.

      May's resume > Pac's.
      May would still be undefeated if he fought those guys WHEN Pac fought them (or prime, wouldn't matter).
      I doubt Pac gets by Chico.
      U trying too hard. Fluid didn't beat a single prime HoF. Pac is greater ATG. Case closed.

        In the age of PBF/May, who was there ?
        You say he didn't beat any prime HOF....ok, who did ?
        You can't go around dissing a guy unless you bring out those who did better.
        Deets would be nice, but we're in NSB so..........

          Prime Pacquiao, prime Morales, prime Barrera, prime Cotto, prime Pavlik, prime ODLH, prime Bradley, prime Casamayor were there. Floyd didn't fight any of them.

          He fought 5 prime fighters. Lost to Castillo and Maidana. He hunted mentally shot Corrales and slugger robot Baldomir. Judah was close to his prime too but Baldomir upset him before Floyd.

          You are just finding excuses. Floyd fought in solid era in terms of prime fighters.

            Fighting someone is nice.
            Winning is the key.
            What prime HOF MFer did those guys you named beat ?

            Casamayor, Bradley, Erik, Marco would have gotten laughed out of the ring.
            Pac was too chicken shlt to accept random blood tests.
            Arum didn't want Cotto anywhere near PBF.
            DLH is 5 years older. When did their primes ever meet ?
            Ok, I'll give you Pavlik. PBF/May def swerved him.

              Seems as if May can do no right.

              May fights DLH and May is picking on a shot promoter
              Years later, Pac fights the absolutely WORST VERSION and Pac is all of a sudden crowned FOTY.
              ''No one beat up DLH* like Pac did..''
              Yeah becaause no one ever fought THAT VERSION of DLH*.
              May ''drags'' JMM up from wherever, beats him easily, gets no credit.
              JMM nearly KILLS Pac and JMM is on roids.
              May fights Conor because the money is insane.
              May is ruining boxing
              Years later, Pac wants to test the Conor waters
              No one GAF or criticizes him for following in May's footsteps
              May does an exhibition match, boxing is ONCE AGAIN ruined.
              Pac does an exhibition match and it's for a good cause.

              And people have the nerve to tell others how to spend their money (''Don't spend it on May, spend it on Pac '') ?!?!?

              On the hypocritical buffoon scale, where would you place people who behave in such a manner (1-10, 10 being the ultimate fool) ?
              I can't go around trying to put people I don't know on a scale like that. I would need to know the person/poster really well before coming to a conclusion like that. Can't just throw a blanket judgment like that when many of these people may not even be serious about the comments they make.

              Unfortunately we don't get the best fighting the best as often as we should, and I don't know if I vent in the "appropriate" threads. It's useless anyways. I vote with my wallet and have been buying less and less fights (I don't do illegal streams).

                All excuses You can say that he could beat all of them. Then, why didn't he fight? Those guys would make him even stronger ATG and possibly GOAT. He missed his chance by hunting too young, too old or mentally shot opponents.

                  Do you need to know that person personally ?
                  I can tell what kind of person a stranger is just by the way they act or the opinions they hold.

                  When a so called fight fan behaves in an obvious hypocritical way, in the few examples I mentioned, it's easy work to judge them as the goofballz that they are.
                  If something is wrong for 1 guy, it's wrong for everyone.
                  It ain't hard.

                    No, but I rarely remember the "names" of the people I interact with here. I don't usually remember who said what so I wouldn't be able to know/remember enough to label them.

                      That's right.....those fights, especially the Pavlik fight, were all PBF/May's fault for not happening.
                      BTW, maybe DLH is the only ATG'ish guy you listed.
                      Are those other names supposed to be scary ?
