    Y'all realize that Floyd Sr, Marco Antonio Barrera, Erik Morales, De La Hoya, Juan Marquez and many other boxing greats/current fighters are all 0-3 picking against PAC since the De La Joto fight, lmao. I feel like a boxing genius now.

    I'm 2-1 since the De La Hoya fight( I picked Queen De La Hoya)

      those 2 are pretty tough opponents for Pac.


      with Shane, i'd give the slight edge towards Manny. what

      impressed me most about Manny with the Cotto bout is his

      ability to take hard shots and not bephased. when it comes

      down to the nitty-gritty i don't think Shane can match the

      same stamina as Manny towards 9-12rnds. aging fighters tend

      to gas out faster(no b-hop). i'd probably pick Manny SD over

      Shane.



      a fight with Floyd is something else though. i love exciting

      fighters as much as anyone else but i sincerely appreciate the

      skill of a boxing technician that is of Floyd. it may be a bit

      biased to side with Floyd from a boxing purist aficionado

      standpoint but i just don't think Manny can penetrate through

      Floyd's superb defense enough to hurt/knock him down. that's

      what it boils down to really. if Manny can hurt and knock Floyd

      down because he certainly can't try to out-box him for sure.

      and either way i just don't think he can catch him. Floyd by UD.

        My betting record on here is 1-9.

        just goes to show you dont know ****.

            2-1. i knew he would beat oscar & hatton, i thought cotto would be too big & powerful. i made a lot of real money on the oscar fight. even in his prime oscar had trouble with southpaws.

              This is where I think you're wrong. Shane has NEVER faded in a fight ever, he was comprehensively beaten by Forrest and Wright but wasn't faded, he was chasing Cotto towards the end and was beaten the hell out of Margarito who is a cardio machine.

              Mosley is B Hop when it comes to stamina, he has traditionally always picked up in the late rounds and lots of his Kos come in the second half of the fight

              Fights that hes done better in during the 2nd half (De La Hoya 1&2, Mayorga, Margarito, Cotto, Vargas I)
