[nachomas4]

WHOA nacho!!! LOL. since david diaz???? really?? enlighten me sir.
what makes you "strongly" believe this?

most people ripped on manny for fighting diaz... people claim manny ducked tougher fights @ LW to fight an "easy" diaz...

from my memory, diaz crumbled from the pressure & speed... its not like manny tossed diaz around like a ragdoll, diaz was solid... just outclassed.

like i said before, pac has been good, really good, but i've been watching boxing for so many years and i became supicious of pac way before i heard paulie or floyd sr. etc... voice their opinions. When su****ion arose from players like Bonds, Sosa, Palmeiro and McGwire they were somewhat guilty until proven innocent and they were indeed guilty, however, pac come over as a gentleman and an important man in the sport and most of all to his country and so anyone making such opinions is wrong for doing so, why wasn't it wrong when it came to Bonds, because of his arrogance?

i totally see your point, and all those "reports" raised my eyebrows as well... but until something solid is released, i cant see myself jumping the gun.... but you are completely right, 10 yrs from now would be worthless... but his reputation and how he is placed in history would be revised... so there will be a penalty if there is guilt. for the sake of boxing, im hoping this doesnt get too scandalous. LOL

man its like we are following a sport because all we love to see is the best fighters fight and give the fans great fights, but we only mean something when it comes time to sell tickets and ppv sells, other than that the bull**** continues and they try to feed us with it. You hardly see Don King and i hope he's done and Bob Arum is not too far behind, i just dont like these guys i think they are the main reason why the sport is where it is, we are losing fans like crazy to MMA, I even saw videos on youtube of Cotto practicing the sport.

The new WBA junior middleweight champion Miguel Cotto is back in his country of Puerto Rico. Quoted by Golzka, Cotto said he would speak with his team and Top Rank, who promote him, to figure out the next fight in 2010. [Click Here To Read More]

Knowing PAC, he probably fight for the 154 8th title at 147. Nothing surprises me these days in boxing.

i didn't say pac was done, but at the top of his peak looking down not up and he's made it look easier than most who've done it before, even Duran had his troubles ad Pac ain't no Duran. if you search on youtube for Teddy Atlas, he said in a video that although he does not know if its true his sources are usually very legit and there was word the the people for Pac sent
Floyd's people 2 emails, the first saying what happens should pac test positive for peds and the second saying that if pac does in fact tests positive for peds can they keep it quiet for the sake of boxing. and you must agree that all this is coming from big names within the sport and nut just fans, and for the record i was a fan who loved pacs style but i started suspecting on my own and then with all the rumblings i feel somewhat different. and the worse thing is that if it ever does come out it'll be 10 years downh the road and it would be meaningless

If Floyd has these emails, he'd have Pacquiao by the balls by now; and why the hell would Pacquiao put it in court papers? All Floyd has to do is show the e-mails and there goes the trial.

well all it takees is just denying that it was sent from pac's people and it becomes a he said she said. i didn't say that i know this to be true, im just letting people know about the video i saw on youtube where Teddy Atlas, a respceted member of the boxing community, talks about these emails that his sources say were sent from pac's camp to Floyd's camp

he will probably have to fight at a catch weight of 145 again. dont do it cotto fight at 154 where you are now comfortable,dont let arum give pacman the upper hand.

[ChampBox@PR]

Men, I hope he doesnt do it just yet!!!!!

[Osirus022]

If Pac fought Clottey @ a full 147 Welterweight then I doubt that they would make a lower catch weight if Cotto Pac 2 happens. It would be VERY low for Pac n his team to request a lower weight. I say that Cotto looked great @ 154, also he probably gained a bit of muscle so Id say make a 151 or 152 weigh in for Super Welter.

he should go after Corey Spinks which would be a similar fight to Yuri in that there's not much risk in getting hurt by a power punch, he also gets more time to gel with Emmanuel Steward and more time to heal all those cuts and bruises from all the preivious wars and then we'll see if a fight with pac is right, but by then pac might be exposed tw different ways; one by floyd as he gets whopped and the other as a cheat which i believe he is

[Illdil]

No there is no need for another rematch cuz PAC beat him very badly and there's no reason to fight PAC he should stay at 154 and gets some good fights and let steward work on he's still improving technique and in a couple of fights he should b really good specially he's footwork, defence, patience and cotto very good boxing skillz..154 is good for cotto the guy looks very big and should b a threat for anyone cotto is one of my favs and a guy who has fought everyone simply a amazing career & resume one of the best fighters to come out of puerto rico..
