    My Final Insult to Pacquiao

    After today, I have nothing else to say about Pacquiao, blood test, Arum, PED's, milkshakes, excuses, etc...

    When I watch and follow boxing and I see a guy rising in the rankings, weight, popularity. There comes a time when they face the best. Our friend Mayweather has been accused of not facing the best ever since he climbed to welterweight. But for the first time, I can finally understand why fans hate Floyd, they hate him cause he didn't fight the guy they wanted him to fight at the time they wanted him to fight him.

    This is a Eureka moment because that is exactly how I feel about Pacquiao right now. I feel like he is the King of fighting B and even C level opponents. What is Oscar, Hatton, and Cotto to me? Former A level fighters who at the time they fought Pac, B-C level fighters.

    With Mayweather he had a chance to finally fight an A level opponent who is actually considered the best. He scratched that to take on yet another B level guy in Clottey. Yea!! We're so excited.......not.

    So the reality is, if Pac will not fight Floyd Mayweather....then he is Floyd Mayweather, which is a guy who only takes fights he knows he will win.

    That is until now..........Floyd is fighting Mosley, and as fans we got to give Floyd credit for going after Pac and Shane when he clearly could of found a B-C level guy instead.

    You dont watch guys come up through the rankings though. You said it yourself yesterday that you only pay attention to the fighters at the top of the sport!

        Your statements could be true if Pacquiao is now retired. But no, that is why time is needed to methodically fight one by one. If anyone, Pacquiao isn't the right person to accuse of someone "ducking" anyone.....he has gone 7 weight division levels.

        The fight between Mayweather and Pacquiao can still materialize by the end of the year.

        If you look at his resumé, his records speaks for itself. He didn't duck anyone and in fact "conquering more" and challenging anyone worthy in his way towards his goal of fighting the best within his range (weight).

        Nobody. Nobody can say that against Pacquiao. When he retires then criticism can now legitimately come up. But introspectively, how can anyone find fault in his career?

        How?

              Cotto is the guy that beat Mosley and Floyd had specifically avoided and still is avoiding. And who do you think Floyd has fought in his resume that is sooo much better than Manny's resume.

                  That was a long time ago, and Cotto has declined much since then, isn't it obvious? Now with that said, who knows how sharp Mosley will be against Floyd. It could end up being a route. But that would be a post fight assessment. As it stands, Mosley is still considered an A level fighter. After Floyd, he may very well drop to C level. Thats how it works in boxing, especially in the case of Floyd's opponents.
