Comments Thread For: Pacquiao vs. Foreman Moving Forward For March

Now that's a fight I would pay to see. Martinez is about the same size as Foreman I don't see why not OHH that's right even on PED's PAC doesn't take on guys at their peak not weight drained and at the top of their division. I forgot he only fights guys when he has the advantage going in nowadays.

Idiot. The Foreman fight is much easier to make, being that he is promoted by Top Rank. Martinez is promoted by Dibella.


Do you think that they would have the proper time to negotiate a fight with another promoter, and have enough time to promote this fight?


Make no mistake about it, moving up to fight even a mediocre fighter who will likely be 20 pounds heavier and 5 inches taller, is no walk in the park.

What a slap in the face of Cotto and all the other fighters Manny has fought in the past two years.He's willing to fight Foreman at 154lbs and give up a whole lot of weight advantage but in his last fight with Cotto.."it wouldn't be fair for Manny if Cotto came in on the scales for HIS title at 147lbs???said Manny's team(Roach)."Manny can barely make 147lbs said Manny's team(Roach).Yeh OK!!!

**** Bob Arum and Freddy Roach they are just as bad as Mayweather and his crew always looking for advantages, I cant believe I was looking forward to watching these two frauds fight. They are frauds and they were sent in this path by Bob Arum he's a greedy scumbag that could care less about the state of the game of boxing as long as he cashes in. First he creates the Monster that is Mayweather now he hates him. Now he's made PAC look like he's the greatest of all time and a freaking saint and he's nowhere near in either category. From now on I wanna hear about Paul Williams, Shane Mosley, Sergio Martinez, JMM, The super six, etc guys that take on each other in their primes without any ****ed up pre conditions. ENOUGH!!!

So where do you people rank Foreman at 154? I'm just curious.

Right you're talking about a guy that took on Paul Williams on short notice. Paul Williams with a heavyweight reach, 3-4 inches taller, at a weight he never fought at before against a top guy in that division on short notice and you don't think hed jump on this fight?!?! I know you think you know a lot about boxing watching all of PACMANS fights but next time u want to make a comment like that to me check you're **** step out of Pacland and into the real world dip****.

Yuri would still be an easier fight to be made since its been discussed for a few weeks now and they under the same promoter.

Either way, how often does ANYBODY move up a weight class and take on the #1-2 guy during their first visit?

shane Mosley vs prime ODH, the guy in my comment Sergio Martinez Vs. Paul Williams. JMM vs Casamayor then Juan Diaz, even PAC vs Barrera 1 back when he was real and I actually liked the guy There's too many examples to list. Real Champions move up to face the best at their prime this is a look good in paper BS convenient move.

I am making a commitment to never pay for any Mayweather fight. The best way to get back at this hopeless, narcissistic braggart and liar is to hit him where it would hurt most, his pocketbook.
If fans would start writing to various boxing websites demanding to BOYCOTT ALL MAYWEATHER FIGHTS, we might actually be able to convince other like minded fans to do the same thing and this demand for a BOYCOTT may actually snowball with bankrupting any and every fight that Mayweather is involved in. SO:
B O Y C O T T M A Y W E A T H E R ! B O Y C O T T M A Y W E A T H E R! B O Y C O T T M A Y W E A T H E R!

pacquiao isn't fighting martinez nor williams

[BadBrains]

Bradley is greater than foreman, but foreman would be the harder fight due to the size and weight advantage. So please stop crying *****s just cuz u guys are defending floyd fighting matt hatton or malignaggi. I even have foreman winning on pac due to this and his punching power is hugely underrated. It might be like that at 154, but pac is a natural 140. The question is....what's the weight?

[MissDeeCole]

they would have been way smarter to put him in there against malinaggi, nobody knows who the hell yuri foreman is, and it would have been interesting to see pacquiao against malinaggi's style
