    search the forum for "pacquiao fighter of the decade" threads.

    they tried to argue 2000-2010 is the decade and mayweather can win it if he beats pacquiao.

    hilarious stuff.

      fighting mosley at 142 is tougher than fighting marquez at 147.

      true story.

          They think that Foreman is easier fight than Cotto, that's why they will accept 154 pounds.

          Just like with De La Hoya, they were ready for 147 cause they knew De La Hoya would be drained at that weight.

          It's all bunch of BS, he didn't want to fight Mosley at 140 lbs (probably because Mosley just destroyed Margarito), put would fight Foreman at 154 lbs?

          Why not fight against Martinez at 154, or Spinks?

          And than he will claim how he is champ in 8 weight classes, bunch of BS.

              pac has negotiating power.

              ask floyd. floyd had to give in to all of his demands too.
              So you admit that floyd gave in to all of pac's demands..gloves,ring size..etc...but then pac cant give in to one demand to prove to us that he is clean..pac is the one tarnishing the sport....

                Ring and gloves are normal part of negotiating.

                Olympic style testing is not.

                Pac wanted it at 147, which IMO is better for Floyd than 154.

                Glove is 8 ounces, which you can have at 147.

                  never said floyd didn't give in to what pac demanded.

                  just because he gave in to most doesn't mean pac has to return the favor.

                  that would be ideal but it doesn't work that way.


                  pac is tarnishing the sport? how? LMAO

                    FAILED! PAC can order the burgers anyway he wants now! Pac didn't cherry-picked to his championships you bugger! He fought and wasted former P4Ps in Ledwaba, Barrera and 2 other great Mexicans, Diaz, Hatton, Dela Hoya, and Cotto?! You must be eating some on my sig...

                    If Pac fights John Ruiz all of you would cry, why not Tyson!?

                      Pac is tarnishing the sport? How? Lmao
                      he is tarnishing the sport mate..think about it...there are millions of people around the world just interted in the negotiations let alone the fight..so,for a quick sec all eyes were on boxing..am not saying floyd was right to ask for the test but now that he has and a lot of other people including boxers are questioning manny(fair or not,they are)..to prove he is innocent he should have just taken the test and proved that one of the best boxers right now isnt juicing..boxing has already had numerous black eyes with boxers juicing and that so pac could of took the tests,past them and then said to the world,"look,am that good,the sport of boxing is clean",which would of looked better than him flat out refusing to take his blood because he is scared of needles albeit he has many tatoos,or whatever the case is.him and floyd too are representing the sport in a big way so why not show in the biggest ever fight that it is a fair fight..this is the perfect platfrom....i like watching pacman,i dont hate him but his decision here is questionable...i have raised my eyebrows in the past with some of floyds antic because he aint perfect either but this time around i must say pac is in a way making the sport look bad.just my opinion...either way both fighters are acting like spoilt b****..the rich bas**rd!!!!! Lol
