      His last 5 fights...
      David Diaz. A tomato can.
      Oscar De La Hoya. Weight drained.
      Ricky Hatton. Shot.
      Miguel Cotto. Had wear and tear but he was still prime I admit.
      Joshua Clottey. Gatekeeper.
      I think this is a better way of looking at it.
      David Diaz. Comes forward with his hands down.
      Oscar De la Hoya. Weight drained.
      Ricky Hatton. Comes forward with his hands down.
      Miguel Cotto. Crumbles under relentless pressure.
      Joshua Clottey. Doesn't work much, sits in a shell until opponents stop punching.


      All of them were taylor made for Pacquiao. That is a better way of looking at it. Just picking opponents that don't pose much challange.

      That will be an excuse for bak'la(s).

          before writing the word bakla, please help yourself in correcting the word tailor.

            David Diaz. pac was moving up.
            Oscar De La Hoya. de la hoya's fault. not pac's.
            Ricky Hatton. live, big, and undefeated at 140.
            Miguel Cotto. top welter with power and technical skill.
            Joshua Clottey. a fighter no one looks good against yet pac dominated the cards.

              Yeah I agree with you on that whole list looks pretty accurate to me. He needs to test himself, and a punching bag isnt a test.

                    these were all credible fights until pacquiao gets in there with them, exposes them, make them look like they dont even belong in the ring with him. pacquiao is that good, hate it or love it, there is no challenge, except for mayweather, which is why the fight has to happen.

                      I though that Clottey would throw close to as many punches as Pac did and I thought hed also win 3 or 4 rounds man... Not to curl up in a ball and get the **** beat out of him
