Yeah so according to this guy the Ring is now racist against Asians... Give me a ****in' break Ronnie.

that is his implication. then he says that the thiland site is actually american. so when all these americans were voting for pac, it was ok. but now, the same people are racist? talk about a reach.

You can be biased without being racist. Ronnie is biased but isn't racist. He didn't accuse The Ring's panel of being racist, just of being biased. His accusation is ******, but there's no need to pretend it was worse than it actually was. He didn't accuse anyone of racism, so stop playing that card.

Ring Magazine which prides itself on being the “Bible of Boxing” somehow appears to have bent if not broken its commandments. [Click Here To Read More]

The Ring's rating's panel is from all over the world, they're far from all being American. And one of them writes for asianboxingnews.com, although he admittedly has an anglo-saxon-sounding name.

But I agree with your main point - he didn't question their credibility when they called Pac their Fighter of the Decade, so it's the height of hypocrisy for him to question it now, just because he disagrees with one of their decisions - and it just makes him look like a ****** child who has eaten too many sour g****s.

he kind of has a point,since floyd came back he beat marquez who is a lightweight and an old mosley,yeah mayweather looked good but come on,this is someone at the end of his career,this isn't the same mosley of 12 years ago

but cant that be said of all pacs notable wins? he beat old barrera, old morales, old wt drained dlh(dlh hadnt been at 147 in seven years) wt drained cotto. i mean all his fights have had built in advantages for him. this is noy fair to the rest of the fighters. if you fight for the ww title, it should be at the ww limit of 147. not any kind of catch wt.

It's funny that Ronnie complains about JMM being so high and one of his reasons is because Pac beat him. He was one of the journalists that said JMM should have won that fight.

How can a man that has beaten the #2 and #3 P4P guys be ranked behind anyone? Specially when the so called #1 only has a controversial win over one P4P guy and avoided matches to change that. Floyd soundly beat the #2 and #3 P4P and challenged Manny too while Manny's claim to fame is beating well picked already conquered fighters. 2 of which were already beaten by Floyd. Manny wanted no part of Marquez, Shane or Floyd. He should've never been P4P#1.

here go the excuses he to old first he was toughest know he the oldest the critics cant let floyd enjoy no wins huh who ever wrote this should kick rock and then walk on a highway backwards

lol..isnt this the same 38 year old Mosley that Freddie Roach said was too dangerous for Manny?
