WHAT IF PBF "POTSHOTS' his way to a boring decision against pac?

[strugler]

In some cases but Frazier beat Ali in a very close fight (1st). He did not need a dominant win to solidify his status. He simply won.
Not to mention in a hundred years when the historian looks at Floyds record, he will simply see a win over another great fighter, and wont care about how.

ofcourse not........we care how one boxers won..........look at the mad love for gatti............yes a win is a win.........but an impressive win against an ATG.....doesnt just solidify his status.....it defines his greatness........................

potshotting a smaller man aint great.......nor impressive.............am i asking him to trade with PAC?....hell no...........if PBF wins am i gonna make excuse.....nope........................but did he rise to the occasion by potshotting a small welterweight............nope.....is it a great win?...........no......

stop with this smaller man ****. pac was the smaller man against cotto and look what happend, and cotto is bigger than floyd. if pac loses size wont hav anything to do with it

Oh **** off about the weight. It's abundantly apparent Pacquiao has taken his power AND speed up with him in weight, if anything Pacquiao has looked more impressive, and almost unbeatable at WW.

I think you're forgetting that Floyd himself, still, isn't a "big" Welterweight. Is he a 'real' Welterweight? Yes. Is he a 'big' Welterweight? No. Manny and Floyd have both weighed between 145-150 on fight night for the past 3-4 years.

I would say in some cases and we can agree to disagree....but did I read right on your sig....a pac fan said JT beat BH twice? ,,lmao
Im betting its a Pea Pea Alt.

Who's fault is it if they get potshot all night?

lol, for real. I don't care for either of these guys but it's a crock that the excuses are coming out. Sick of all these bs excuses after every big fight. A fights a fight and people need to suck it up.

Of course people want an impressive win but it isn't very important. Pacquaio and Mayweather are looked at on an even playing field. They both have accomplished so much and both are looked at as the two best fighters of the era, no one even close. These guys are so even, so to think one or the other should win easily is insulting to both fighters. It should be an even fight because they are equally skilled. If one does blow out the other I think its fair to say that that guy is clearly the better of the fighters, and the greatest of the era. t be a dominThis fight decides a lot imo but it should be an even matchup and shouldn'ant win for either man.

A WIN is a win....no one is dis*****g that............but if PBF potshots his way to a boring decision........in a fight this magnitude .............................it shouldnt be called great win either........potshotting and putting a boxing clinic are different though...

the way pac has been looking .......

if someone just manage to beat him...... in any way... that would be impressive.

no ofense strugler but i think u r jusy hating on floyd.... pot shot or not it will be using the sweet science........ and if he handles pac's attack.... thats impressive

not if its pot shotting......im not asking him to play pacs game....i want PBF to rise to the occassion.......no offense taken

DONT GIVE PBF a pass for "potshotting" a small WW.............put a JMMesque performance................that aint asking much is it???.............if he fights like hoya or baldo...........................PBF should be fed to the lions.........

A win, no matter how it happens in this fight, between two evenly matched guys is a great win no matter what. I don't care if he pot shotted 7 rounds and ran the last 5 to a victory, it would still be a great victory. Not sure why you are so hung up with it having to be a dominant win. It's not supposed to be a dominant victory for either fighter because they are the best of an era.

i think what it comes down to is u just dont like potshotting. if floyd is able to potshot a great fighter like pac all night and shut him down i would call that impressive. and it also depends on ur definition of impressive

PBF is a small WW himself. I thought I could read through the lines with this post. Have you see PBF compared to Mosley or Margarito? The guy is ***ing small. PBF and Manny are about the same size. PBF may be a little thicker but there isn't really any size advantage.
