How can this equate to "FIGHTER OF THE DECADE"?

[Khalid X]

LOL!!! The decade has passed...............LOL!

lol that dumb@ss thinks if Floyd beats Pac he wins back fighter of the decade...smh

[Allucard]

Barrera - Win (J.Jones beat him faster x2 in his prime)
Marquez - Draw and SD win (most thought he lost x2)
Morales - Loss (Only beat him after Raheem dominated him)
Hatton - (KO'd by Floyd 2 years earlier)
De La Hoya (fought him 2 years after Mayweather, at a weight he didnt fight at in a decade)
Cotto - (Ruined by Margarito, catch-weight, paper-belt)



I am still trying to figure out who Manny Pacquiao beat in or even around their primes? People say Manny is small but he has outweighed everyone he has fought.....Barrera, Marquez, and Morales were all smaller than Pacquiao. Oscar was outweighed, Hatton & Cotto was as well.

It doesn't man, the only reason they put him there is that they hate Floyd Mayweather. The media, most "boxing fans" they all hate Floyd. They couldn't do it while Mayweather was on top but when he retired the "elections" for fighter of the decade immediately emerged. Smells like ****. Pacquiao is a good PUNCHER, he can't really box. He's not complete. I've heard a Pacquiao fan complaining he didn't like Pacquiao even more because of his NOSE. That's the sort of fans Pacquiao have (not all of them of course!). You figure out the rest.

Actually I like you as a poster which is why I haven't responded to that. FWIW there are so many inaccuracies in that, It's not even funny.

You can respond, tear it apart, discredit it, etc. I wont take it personal. Though I believe it'll be a difficult task as everything posted was 100% fact.

I give this thread 5 stars.

Unfortunately, Pac is waiting until Floyd is 35 to fight him. Floyd's speed will erode by then. Then again, Pac's body may be eroded from steroid abuse by then as well.

Floyd has fought more Granpas than Pac (Oscar, Gatti, Baldomir, Marquez, Mosley)

Pac (Oscar, Marquez)

You can dissect any fighter's resume like that...

Indeed. However some opinions are based on fact, and others aren't. You can attempt to discredits Floyd's resume if you wish, but the fact is, before his matchup with Mosely, Floyd had 15 fights on his resume where at the time of the fight, his opponent was a world champion. Meaning 37% of his fights, more than third of his resume, is composed of championship fighters. All the while shattering compubox records.

Actually Bernard was in the list longer for this decade than Floyd. Maybe Bernard should have been FOTD?

Maybe so then but I know someone who just made it to the big time doesn't deserve that honor.

And you can look at the quality of those championship fighters and commence dissection.

I am not referring to Floyd mainly if course.

Floyd started well in the amateurs. Pac did not have that luxury. Fact is, before Mosley, I doubt unbiased boxing fans would be in awe of Floyd's JWW-WW resume. That alone is took 6 years of the last decade.

From 2000-2002 great run HOF type of run awesome resume.

From 2003-2009 his resume is nothing to brag about. The only reason I give him a pass for 2007 it was an awesome money fights. It was a great business year. But, resume wise those years nothing that stands out as all time greatness...

And if Bernard has been voted for FOTD, *****s will complain about how he doesn't deserve it because of this and that.
