Comments Thread For: Mayweather Above Pacquiao; Ring's Rankings Questionable

I don't think you can really state The Ring is *too* biased for Floyd... reading the magazine, which I do for free in Barnes & Nobles when it comes out, since I won't pay for that s**t- and I recommended all of you do, too- (although I do buy Boxing Monthly and Boxing Digest to support those magazines)- every article, columnist, etc. is anti-Floyd, insulting to Floyd, and puts Manny on the cover every other issue. Make of that what you will. The Ring, with both the magazine and the website, are very down on Floyd.

Hey *****, Mayweather's only legit WW fights were against a 38 year-old Moseley , and a bloated 36yo featherweight.

Cotto>Moseley Clottey>Marquez

clown floyd fought judah,baldomir and shane,baldomir was the lineal ww champ zab was the former ww champ and if everyone wasn't suckin manny's nuts shane would and should have been the #1 ww

mosley and marquez were both ranked higher than miguel and clotey on the p4p list

There is nothing wrong with the rankings.

Mayweather is ranked #1 at WW and isn't even the Ring Title holder at that weight.

Pacquiao is still overall p4p #1 and is still the JWW Ring Title holder.




Small issue............................... THIS BIG

Ronnie has a disease. He needs some meds for his *******ation. Even some admitted *******s on this board gave Floyd credit for his beatdown over Shane. But Ronnie's *******ation is on another level. Ronnie makes me want to see Floyd beat down Manny and Manny's my favorite fighter.

Epic thread..

definitely
so epic that it's closed for replies AND most of the posters criticizing Ron in it are currently banned...
coincidence???

Who gives a sh$t what Ronnie says...he's one of Pac's useful idiots, and should be thanking his lucky stars he still has a public forum to spew his bias's...the real story here remains that Oscar is shamelessly using his magazine to have it both ways. A ranking dispute gets the Pac and Money fans talking, and more importantly, demanding a fall showdown. I was convinced they'd come to terms the first time around, but the ego's and greed prevented the fight the whole world wanted to see. I just think Oscar is seeing one of boxing's all-time biggest fights possibly never happening, and he's gonna USE his publication to help him get paid off the two guys who sent him into retirement. Golden Rule: Goldy has the gold, so Goldy makes the rules.

Hasn't been proven. As a complete package, it hasn't been proven. Lets hope they agree on a compromised date, and finally make the fight happen.

I'm glad boxing has a figure like Manny Pacquiao to make even casual boxing fans interested to a degree where they take time out of their busy lives to post in a boxing forum. He's similar to Mike Tyson in that regard.

Mayweather Above Pacquiao; Ring's Rankings Questionable

I think this is wrong....The Ring website clearly still shows Manny as #1 and their most recent article titled “Ring Ratings Update: Who's No. 1, Pacquiao or Mayweather?” By Michael Rosenthal indicates the following….

“THE RING is sticking with Pacquiao as its No.1 fighter – barely!”

Ronnie Nathanielsz should do his research first before printing nonsense. Playing the race card is ridiculous as well….You had no problem with the racial profile of the panel when they (At least in your mistaken mind) had Manny at #1 but now there’s a problem. Busch League Nathanielsz!!

[Dick Buffman]

The Ring has no credibility anyway. Since Oscar's bought it its been used as a political tool for GBP opponents.


Downgrading the Hero of Asia in this way proves this. I'm sure Mayweather had some sort of stipulation with Oscar that if he won they'd move him up.

Pacquiao deserves more respect than that.

Ronnie nailed it.
