Jesse James Leija: "It was Floyd who DUCKED Pacquiao"

[Sweet Jesus]

Jesse is just mad that Floyd took his cousin out in 2 rounds when Floyd was only 20 years old...

Even back then his timing was nearly perfect.

Exactly. You can't be too mad at them. Pacquiao put them in this position and most of them aren't really boxing fans anyway.

Pacquiao fans remind me of people who aren't cerebral enough to be boxing fans,but are too protected by their parents to be UFC fans....it is the perfect in-between for them!

I honestly don't see how anyone can say Mayweather used this as a tactic to duck Pac. Claiming Pac isn't on anything is one thing, but pretending as if these test weren't included in the contract from the start is another thing entirely. If you're going to speak on it, at least be aware of what actually went on.

There is no evidence that Carthaginians were black, but there is evidence that they were not. Not a single reference to Hannibal as black is contained in the copious Roman accounts of the Punic Wars. Also, Massinissa is specifically mentioned as being king of Numedia, an acknowledged dark complexioned people.

Also, since the Carthaginians were directly descended from Phoenicians, and not one of the vase or mural reproductions shows the Phoenicians as being black, but on the contrary shows they are Semitic, we must accept that as direct evidence.

This, of course does not negate the fact that Hannibal Barca was the greatest military strategist and tactician of ancient times, and one of the very greatest of all time.

There was a special on PBS regarding Hannibal which did a DNA study on the ancient Phoenicians that determined they were the same bloodline as the Ancient Egyptians.

Many archaeologists and historians identify the Phoenicians as being "The Sea Peoples" of the ancient Egyptian accounts of a 15th cent.B.C.E. invasion of that whole coast line. Supposedly from Greece or Turkey. A very interesting period.

I'm not some fanboy trying to reason with his bitchassness. he's scared ****less of money pacquiao, this is just a ****ing cop out. i don't care two ****s if you believe it or not. this dude always comes up with some new **** to not fight some one who is a threat to him.

That's interesting. But also quite slanted. There were some Greeks and Turks who settled in the area (the area being by the Eritrean sea in East Africa) but the people indigenous to that area were most certainly were not. Hannibal's face is on the coin found in the Valley of the Clanis in Italy, not far from where he defeated the Romans. The date of the coin corresponds to the era of Hannibal’s early battles with the Romans.
