Comments Thread For: Manny Pacquiao's hopes of fighting Mario Barrios damaged by Rukiya Anpo exhibition

[Oregonian]

None of which applies to me. Go find a post in which I say any of this. You're the one with double standards, as usual, and the one who continues to pretend that pulling a guy up from 122 isn't disgraceful.

I have never once celebrated Floyd fighting exhibitions. Floyd could raid the tomb of Imhotep and fight him, I don’t care. The man is retired, he can do whatever he wants.

I’m just pointing out the hypocrisy of all those the ridiculed Floyd while loudly proclaiming Manny would NEVER DO THAT. And then when Manny does exactly the same thing, they defend it and justify it while shifting goalposts by saying that Manny’s exhibitions are “better”.

Manny can fight whoever he wants. I don’t care. Let the man earn his living. I am just calling out the double standards.

If you’ve never criticized Floyd for his exhibitions then my reference is not directed at you.

But you paid to watch Manny fight a Korean YouTuber and now a kickboxer!

Why are you so obsessed with Floyd on a thread that is not about him? Time to move on.

Average Ugas beat Manny pillar to post. Slightly above average Barrios will likely do the same. It's two years since Ugas, and Manny hasn't gotten any younger.

The criticism I level at Floyd is entirely based on him pulling up a super bantam and lying to him about the details. Aside from that all I've ever said is that I don't care to watch them. You quoted me with all your baseless assumptions. Maybe next time just leave me out of your straw man BS.

Not to mention, as I've pointed out repeatedly, there's a HUGE difference between fighting a 122 lb kickboxer and one that is bigger than you. You're the one saying that's "exactly the same thing." That's double standards right there. You are in every time Pacquiao does any kind of exhibition pretending there's droves of people who complained about Floyd, but you don't even seem to understand the concept of weight classes. They are NOT "exactly the same thing." We do agree that they can both make what money they want. But give me a break with that "Manny fighting 154lb Anpo is equivalent to Floyd fighting 122lb Nasukawa."

Floyd and pushing himself would never go right in the same sentence

One name comes to mind when you Pac Bois talk out of your asses....

These were your words about Floyd, “ They are as boring as his sanctioned fights so I don’t pay to see them.” You mentioned him.

I asked you a very simple question based on your response - was PAC fighting a YouTuber great and did you pay for it?

Feel free to respond in the manner I expect.

Pacquiao got his a$$ whooped by a guy who has never boxed. He needs to stay retired.

I’m using the same logic you are using. Unlike you, I don’t defend Floyd on the choices he make.
Fighting a 154 Ibs Anpo is not equivalent to fight a 122 Ibs guy.
What is also true is, Manny and his loyal fans raged for a long time that he would never fight exhibitions. They railed against Floyd every time Floyd had an exhibition but they seem to love it when Manny did it.

Also, fighting a 122 Ibs kickboxer is not the same as fighting a YouTuber who has ZERO professional fights. Would you agree?

You're question is petty as is your obsession with Mayweather. Start a new thread if it interests you that much, LOL.

Who are you even talking about? Most of what I see is "Manny should be staying retired" "is a shame he seems to need the money" "Manny has no business in the ring any more". TBH, it looks like you're just making up these "loyal fans" just so you can crap on Manny. Can you find even ONE?

At least have the decency to respond to someone who actually makes that claim, rather than just posting up this BS to anyone who will listen. Who is"they"? I think you're full of it.
