    I'll choose just 1 oppinion to dismantle:Pacman didn't pick DLH to fight,Oscar was on his way back to 147,he chose Pacman,who was a huge underdog in that fight!!Huge underdog because he had never fought above 135 at the time!!But in true warrior fashion he leaped up to welterweight in a hearbeat an blew Oscar out of the water & for the record,that fight was not contracted for a catchweight!!

      Be honest with you, I dont think he's a nice guy. I think he just plays one on TV

        Floyd is supposed to be more technically sound and one of the most skillful ever right? yet he fights blown up lightweights and what not.
        still waiting pbf fans

          Who said it was a catchweight?? I called it weight drained and dehydrated. Oscar also said he wanted to fight Floyd and Hopkins to, never said he was a genius.

            Honestly, I'm simply disappointed that he refused to take random blood test which means walking away from a Mayweather fight. Pac fans celebrate the fact he's not fighting Floyd. Floyd fans are pissed cause we want your Hero to face the truth. Now with that said, I have nothing against Filipinos, half of my family is Filipino, my niece, nephews etc... Also, I'm a boxing fan and Mayweather-Pac is the fight that matters to me, I can give a **** ....tail, about Pac-Clottey and I particularly dislike all the lies that came from Arum and the Pacquiao camp throughout negotiations. Floyd hasn't said anything but Team Pacquiao are like chickens with their heads cut off. Also, how the hell you looking for another fighter while Mayweather still trying to make a fight???? This guy goes from we going with Paulie, to Foreman, to Clottey in the span of a few days. You dont do no sh-t like that. Arum killed the fight and you cats need to stop Blaming Floyd.

              What you not understanding is that the opponents Pac has made his name off of are not that good. At least not at the time Pac fought them.

                    you're right. i guess bert sugar knows nothing about boxing. neither does emmanual steward and others.

                    Floyd barely broke top 50 in espn's greatest fighters in 2006. albeit pac wasn't on that list yet, but this is way after floyd's best fights.

                    Pac>PBF. yes floyd fans are butthurt. floyd was so dope back in the day and had so much potential to become one of the best ever. but he decided to try his hardest to preserve the "0" rather than face the best oppenents possible. skill and talent wasted to certain degree.

                      What all this means is that Floyd level of greatness is at a higher level than Pacquaio's. The bar is higher for Floyd and that aint nothing but a Fact.
