    I absolutely hate Barrera but he has fought that type of fight before. He may not use his legs the same way as a whitaker, but Floyd the same thing can be said about Floyd or B-Hop. Neither of those guys, just like barrera, bounce around the ring much, rather they use their footwork to create angles, get in perfect position to land and avoid punches, and use it to control distances. With that said, to say that just because they aren't moving side to side, that they aren't pure boxers isn't very accurate. Being a pure boxer, as well as being a slick boxer, can be very subjective. There are so many ways to go about being a pure boxer or being slick, that to try to fit of style of fighting into
    either, really isn't fair.

    BTW this is just my opinion on how I see things.

      Fucking Floyd fans will save Mayweather from a burning house instead of their own mother. Floyd fans treat Mayweather like he is fucking god more than anything.

      Floyd can't do no wrong in there eyes. All I hear is how Pac cheated on his wife but they don't give a **** that Floyd beat his baby mama up, t

      here are reports of this man lost a lot of money. They are straight here trying to defend him from that.

      Leave it to Floyd fans, Floyd never ever ever ducked any fighter.

      Floyd can not lose a fight, no matter who he fights from Shane to Pac to Sergio Martinesz to Paul Williams this mans beats all them easy and even KO's a few of them?

      Floyd has never ever lost a fantasy fight by his fans POV...

      His fans would argue that buying a luxury yacth is a fucking investment for his sake.

      I have read that some of his fans on here say this man is unbeatable. UNBEATABLE. No man is UNBEATABLE. But, Floyd is UNBEATABLE. that sounds like GOD to me.

      All you moronic Floyd fans who keep saying Pac fans treat Pac like he is some kind of god are hypocrite and ***** made cuz ya'll worship Floyd more than Pac fans worship Pac.

      True story
      I DONT THINK HES UNBEATABLE, I THINK SOME HIS PERSONAL CHOICES IN LIFE ARE ABSURD AND ******, I DO THINK HE BEATS WILLIAMS NOT MARTINEZ THOUGH. APPERANTLY HE THREATENED THE GUY THAT GOT SHOT AT FROM HIS CAR LAST YEAR IN A TEXT MESSAGE WHICH IF TRUE IS ROYALLY ****** HE WILL DO TIME FOR THAT ONE. THIS THREAD HAS A VALID LOGICAL POINT AND TO NOBODIES SURPRISE THE CULT GOT THE ANGRY MOB TOGETHER TO CRUCIFY THOSE THAT FEEL HE HAS CHERRY PICKED WHICH HE HAS. FLAT FOOTED BRAWLERS. MARQUEZ THE ONLY SLICK FIGHTER HES FOUGHT BUT NONE OF YOU WILL ACKNOWLEDGE THAT. AND YES FLOYDS WELTERWEIGHT CAREER HAS BEEN LACK LUSTER BUT HOW DARE WE QUESTION PACQUIAOS... Im sorry lord high pacquiao

        Right! Floyd ducked the number 4 (Cotto, who refused to fight Floyd at 140 when he had the chance), and number 5 welterweight (Clottey, who has lost every significant welterweight fight he has participated in), but he is fighting the number 1 (Mosley) welterweight that Pacquaio ducked.

            So we talking about slick fighters now?

            What slick fighter did Floyd fight? Judah? How exactly was he slick? He was flashy but how was he slick?

            Floyd never fougth a fighter as slick as Sasakul ever in his career and we are talking about Pac barely facing slick fighters?

            But, ey I am not going to try and ofend your god Mayweather too mcuh

              Honestly, I'm curious. Around these boards other boxers are constantly bashed about cherry picking, but no one, Pac fan or otherwise can claim Team Pac has done any different from these fighters they claimed have taken the easy road?

              For example, Pac hardly gets any criticism for not fighting Mosely when his camp openly ducked him. I don't get it?

              Same for Raheem. Raheem dominates Erik Morales for 11 out of 12 rounds, and instead of fighting Raheem, Manny fights a shot Morales.

              You want to talk about cherry picking?

              By Roach's own admission DLH was a dead man walking whom no longer desired to fight when he was matched up against Manny. He was literally drained and dehydrated, and this came straight from the mouth of Pacs camp.

              Cotto? Again by team Pacs admission, Cotto was damaged goods who'd had his career ruined by Margarito. Did that stop them from fighting and hyping the fight? Nope.

              Hatton? Again, by Team Pacs own admission, he'd been ruined by Mayweather, and was coming off a fight where he'd been brutalized by Lazcano. They still fought him.

              Clottey? I'll give Manny credit for the fight, but everyone in boxing knew what was coming. Everyone expected Clottey to shell up and take hits, he was taylor made for Pacs style.

              Whoever cares to post the video evidence, please do.

                i honestly just think we should give up man. they will never ever ever listen to any valid point you bring up, never. they dont care about facts, logical opinions, or just plain common sense. its madness to them to question him at all. everything you pointed out is true it can be googled but they dont care. even when you do meet them half way and admit some of floyds fights were lame they still wont admit or acknowledge anything factually true that shows that pacquiao isnt some kind of boxing diety.

                  I'm not dis*****g your opinion and I do respect that, but as you see ppl have different perception in what they are observing. When I say boxers i would refer in something similar like a Kendall Holt, Zahir Raheem, Ivan Calderon, etc

                      If you're going to insult the man, at least be original. With that said, you can't deny the fact that these forums are run by Pac fans.
