Pacquiao/Larios was MUCH worse than Mayweather/Marquez

[El Jesus]

pac/larios was a tune up and nobody is basing pac's p4p #1 on that fight.

floyd/jmm was a tune up and floyd stans think that win makes floyd the G.O.A.T.

that's the difference. keep **** in perspective son.

Dont act like if larios wasnt p4p number 2 at the time he fought him, he would be considered just a tuneup. Morales best weight was really 122, yet its one of pacs signature wins even even though morales had really lost a step by the 3rd barrera fight.

First part is true!

Second part is complete garbage and a lie.

why the **** are we arguing why cotto faced michael jennings after eating 11 rounds worth of concrete? i dont care if he fought kevin kelly after that beating, he needed to come back with some confidence.

we are arguing about the quality of the win chico. & cotto eating loaded gloves is a speculation until proven otherwise.

I won't dignify this hypothetical situation w/ a response.

wtf? morales was killing mofos at 126 lbs... he wasn't big enough at 130 lbs, but neither was pac when he first moved up.

First part is true!

Second part is complete garbage and a lie.

floyd stans act like beating up a blown up LW is floyd's greatest acheivement.... that's what's garbage.

...I dont remember reading or seeing any news of pacs US liscense being suspended and the reasons you stated would have had nothing to do with that. explain how he fought erik morales, then larios, then morales a 3rd time if his liscense was revoked due to a promotional dispute, that makes absolutely no sense.

He fought larios to stay busy and that was basically it. And no, marquez would not be retired due to his ability to not get fights, i dont know how long you have followed the sport, but when marquez was fighting guys like victor polo on showtime, he was still getting tv time once in awhile, the idea that he would retire for a reason like that, i think you are playing way to much defense here.

It was on the news as part of the lawsuit that Golden Boys requested a freeze on Pacquiao and was unable to fight in the US until the lawsuit was over.

Took roughly a year. Yes Pacquiao fought Larios to stay busy but given the fact that it was fighting Pacquiao in his own backyard the list of possible options were very short and noone really stepped to the plate but Larios. So Larios should get credit where credit is due.

and the whole argument about JMM is inconsequential. Just how i personally viewed the situation.

You guys are still throwing paperballs at each other over a couple of tune-ups?


Larios and Marquez were both glorified tune-ups. Marquez for Floyd was more like a rust shaker.

morales was the #1 guy at 130 and the champ before he lost to barrera.

even when he fought pacquiao he was still top 2-3 at 130.



larios was just a tuneup.

Not only that, Larios stunned Pac in the 3rd round.

Wow, no wonder he ducked Raheem. Getting stunned by bums who were forced up two divisions...

if you think larios is a bum......well it figures you are a mayweather stan.

larios may have been past his best by that time but larios is no bum.
