Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Cites Height Concerns, Rejects Foreman

[bbboxing]

lmao Pacquiao is ducking Foreman because he is to tall

thats the same thing the Pacfans try to say about Floyd not fighting Paul Williams they say Floyd ducking Williams because he to tall

well now look Pac won't fight Foreman because he to tall and Foreman is no where near as good as Williams

The difference is Pac is HONEST. Floyd says some bull**** about him not being a ppv draw.

Not to mention pac is about to GO UP in weight again. While Floyd has been welter for 5 years now and he has a laundry list of top fighters he has not fought in his weight class.

I give Floyd a pass will paul williams though, but imo he ducked mosley, cotto, and margarito.

Uhm weight differences too?

are you sayin there is no weight diffrence between Maywather and Williams

[jkaisen41]

Some thought it might be a stretch to see WBO welterweight champion Manny Pacquiao move up to 154-pounds to challenge WBA title-holder Yuri Foreman in March. Top Rank promotes both fighters and offered Foreman as a replacement for Floyd Mayweather Jr. The people who thought it would never happen said Foreman was just too big for Pacquiao, who fought Miguel Cotto last November at a catch-weight of 145-pounds.

To tell you the truth... it ain't a duck to me... I said it before... say it again... if the only interesting part in a match up is how the size plays out... there is something wrong with the match up...

He has enough challenges left at 140... Bradley would be willing I heard... this is PPV worthy

[Great Afrikan]

Arum states that PBF never enters the ring unless he's sure of a win....well what about Pac who refuses a fight because of height?

Isn't Pac doing the same thing?

Mosley ducked him then Cotto beat Mosley ass now Shane got one good win and need a big payday before he retire

Cotto ducked him at 140 then got his ass beat by Margarito and that messed Mayweather-Cotto fight

and Floyd did duck Margarito but he is a cheater so good thing Floyd did

[BaDaBiNgVIP]

what!

ok so foreman is too tall, so roach will want foreman to drain to 148 so it can be still be a superwelter title.

[solly6]

i think this is a smart decision by pac. his natural division is prob junior welter and welter at tops.

You guys are a bunch of tools. I love it.

This is Team Pacquiao's way of getting you talk about something else besides steroids and it's working. Why in the hell would they publicly say he doesn't wanna fight a tall guy unless it had benefits.

It's to legitimize his opponent because at the end, HE WILL FIGHT FOREMAN.

Your second and third lines does not really compute.
Floyd was ducking margarito(as per our opinion), so it would be safe to assume if cotto beat margaritos ass, floyd would duck him too.

And i really, really hate the excuse "But he ducked him before!!!!" That is not valid. It is actually very ******. So lets say FMJ decides he would want to fight P will later this year, would it be valid for P will say "But he ducked me the last 2 years, why would i fight him now?"

The answer to that is, BECAUSE IT IS STILL A GOOD MATCH UP NOW. AND NOW YOU ARE DUCKING.

Get my point bro?

so then I guess Funeka at 6'1" is out of the question.........
