    Yes...because only and Idiot would say Pac didn't fight or ducked Tim Austin. He have never seen nor was watching boxing when he was fighting because If you did you wouldn't make a ****** comment like that. Austin was too green and by the time he made a name for himself, Pac was at 126 (not to mention Austin was only 20-21 at that time).


    BTW I know what a pure boxer is but Im just curios as to why you guys don't consider Marco Antonio Barrera a pure boxer. I have seen MAB lean soley on boxing skills and box his way to a UD. I would name fights, but you already know I'm not here to educuate new boxing fans (such as yourself).

      Where are they now? The point is pure boxer won't guarantee bring you anywhere. Look at Pac vs Floyd (a pure boxer many times better than the names you mentioned) atg/resume/accomplishment status.

        you ****in floyd fanboys need to stop with this pure boxer bull****. floyd is a defensive fighter who pot shots. his defense is great yes but he throws a low number of punches and definitely not enough to offset pacquiao. if you want a pure boxer look at pernell whitaker. he would stand right in front of his opponent and make them miss shots as where floyd runs. whitaker also threw combinations the whole fight and would be the agressor if needed where floyd will not engage.

          That's what i'm asking are you reading my post?

          All fighter rely on will, clearly you think there a difference in the will of a boxer and a brawler, I do not. Malignaggi is indeed a pure boxer but having never fought Pacquiao it's pointless to bring him up.

          I already thanked the person who gave me an example to watch so i'm not going to continue wasting my time trying to explain my intentions to people who turn every ****ing thread into a "PAC'S **** IS BIGGER THE PBF'S ****" thread.

              There have been several times when Barrera just used his boxing skills to outbox and opponent. I mean statements, like the ones you just posted, let me know you don't know **** about boxing.

              New flash....name me a pure boxer and I can name you a time when they brawled there way to victories. B-hop is one of the purest boxers in the sport right now, but I have seen him fight several fights where he leaned on his power and aggression. Same with Roy Jones, and almost every fighter you wanna call a "pure boxer"

                I bring up malignaggi and you say he ain't one?? why because he sucks balls??

                    And Im trying to figure out how a 126lb version of Juan Manual Marquez doesn't fit that criteria of "pure boxer".

                    People seem to forget that only until recently did JMM become more aggressive/brawler on the offensive end.

                      This thread has been highjacked by a bunch of *******s and the funniest part is that I asked this to see if there's any chance for Clottey, and all they've been able to talk about is Floyd.

                      You guys do know he's fighting Clottey right?
