I'm all for the Pacquiao hate but the writer lost me here:
"Certainly not a fighter like Clottey, who, while deserving of tremendous respect for his record so far, is not anywhere near the level of talent that many of Pacquiao’s recent fallen victims have been. Cotto, Hatton, and even an old Oscar De La Hoya (39-6, 30 KOs) are far superior boxers, and yet they found themselves unable to respond to Pacquiao’s punches, as well as unable to get to the smaller fighter’s chin."
I'm sorry that's just ignorance. Clottey not on Hatton's level? Oscar's? Cotto's?
the oscar that showed up against manny would've prolly got ko'd by clottey...seriously. hatton would've lasted maybe 6 rounds with clottey but still KO'd as well...i dont think she knows what she spews.
I've been an online writer for 5 1/2 years and never heard of RingTalk or this Martel chick. And this will be the last time I bother with either. I couldn't get halfway into this piece. Glad I'm not associated with a site that has writers like that.
