    in the amatuer game, the pros is different, did he need tht development ... i think not
    Maybe he did. So you don't think he learned anything from international competition that helped him as a pro?

      Not everyone does. Only Pullcounter. And I often felt like strangling him.

          I agree. That's all that counts.

            maybe it did but im pretty sure hed fought in enough international competitions prior to him turning 18, so the fact he didnt turn pro at that age isnt because he wasnt good enough, the fact he wanted to fight in the olympics is more relevant

                  But, he lossed 5 fights after the age of 18. So maybe he wasn't good enough. I am just saying.

                    and pac lost 3.... whats your point, fights at amatuer have very little relevance at profesional level, it can help to have good amatuer experience... but not that big an advantage

                      Yeah.. he was an amateur when he competed in those divisions, but the point is, he was the same age as Pacquiao when Pacquiao was fighting pro-fights in those divisions.

                      Because of the way things are done in the Phillipines (and with the proverty), however, Pac left the amateurs alot earlier.

                      We should also note how as you get older, your body grows.

                      People make it seem like Pacquiao is this blown up flyweight slaying these giants, not true.

                      I don't think Pac can even make 130lbs. anymore (I know for a fact that Floyd can't).

                      No 30 year-old is gonna weigh the same as he did when he was 16 or 17.

                      So while I agree that Pacquiao is a smaller man who is looking impressive with his power and abilities fighting guys much bigger than him, let's not kid ourselves into thinking that he could be fighting guys at the division he came from but he chooses to fight the bigger ones.

                      **** just ain't true.
                      Damn do you stans ever stop slobbing all over Gayweathers ball bag or what? Your like the ring leader you gay ***. Grow a pair for a change and stop tossing this guys salad all the time.
