I guess this is the pedigree of arguments that are just going to continue to ruin this board for the next few months.
I am almost sad, literally sad at the state of the board i used to love so much at this point. These .."posters" have created a bizarro world for themselves.
Never in my time on here have i seen so many posters who have no sense of history, no knowledge on different styles, no knowledge on past champions.
I mean literally in every sense, most of these people only know the opponents of their favorite fighters and thats it, and they have only seen them fight their fav fighters and thats it.
You always had these types of posters, no doubt, but now this is all thats here in almost every sense.
I am sad to see the board devolve into this. Where guys like ray robinson who have nearly a dozen hall of famers on their list are now trumped because pac beat JMM/De La Hoya/Cotto/Morales/Barrera etc. Floyd isnt on that level when it comes to resume, pac isnt neither.
But yet we have people actually arguing and agreeing with the topic starter.
I love how some ****in f@g calling himself 'PACDBEST' has the nerve to accuse someone of being a 12 year old black kid who likes floyd. Smh @ the cism and underhanded/backhanded racism thats been going on on this board lately.
This board ****ing blows.
Best post that I have read in a long while. You hit EVERYTHING on the head with this one here EL.
Talk about anything boxing related here. Where the boxing discussion is always Non Stop!
here just so you dont have to go back
"tell you what since you constantly come on here and whine about people who critique Manny as nothing more than haters
tell us why YOU think Manny is a top ten ATG
tell us how he compares with the guys considered all time.
break it down for us back up all your **** talking please
because for the most part? you and your ilk LOVE to talk **** about other posters on here, LOVE to red K people just for disagreeing about dear old Manny, LOVE to talk about anything other than the sport
so smart guy give us a break down of how Manny stacks up against the likes of SRR Armstrong Pep Duran
compare each guys resume including the relevance of the fight NOT just the name (something I think a lot of Manny fans forget)
so let's see what you got smart guy"
I will even help you. You can use the list Kadyo presented from 2002's ring as the top ten. Break down each guy and tell me exactly how Pacquiao matches up with them in ability, resume, intangibles etc

exactly how I feel too
there used to be some serious knowledge being shared on here but now all too often this board goes into nothing but talking **** to each other rather than using their knowledge and debating skills to better each other
and then all the racial, nationalistic slurring is just way too much

the maturity level has gotten to be pathetic
and yes this board is starting to blow
the difference is that idiots like this used to get ran off the board.
Remember Mike Tyson Jr?
Viva Mexico?
Even Dr Cynical wore out his welcome eventually.
The thing is, you have a large contingent of idiots who believe this ****, who honestly lend credibility to **** like this, people like this.
If you notice more than ever, this board and the internet is filled with these pathetic photoshops, articles, "journalism". Nothing is objective, nothing is really fact checked, its just one big agenda after the next. Its actually jaded my view as a whole.
I think it frustrates me because this board has been a great collective of people. I was nowhere near as articulated and i had nowhere near the knowledge i had back in 2004 when i joined then i do now in 2010. I can honestly say i progressed as a poster and as a boxing fan because of this board, because of people on here, even yourself Earner.
I am not just some gay ***** whining about my hero being tarnished, its more than that, its just you have people literally hero worshipping a fighter and buying into his bull**** and backing his every move, when you multiply it it by the amount of people not just on this board, but on every boxing board on the internet there is just no escape from this idiocy.
Pac has won a record 7 world titles which is incredible considering he missed out at least two weight classes. Could go on to beat Cotto which will make him an 8 weight champion, a record that noone will ever come close to beating.
Wins over Morales, Barrera, JMM, Hatton, Cotto, DLH show that he delivers in the big fights. The Henry Armstrong of our era.
A win over Mayweather will mean he would of beaten another ATG. We should all apreciate the greatness that is Manny Pacquiao an inspiration to his people and a true global icon.
The likes of Duran, Hearns, Hagler would not be able to cope with the P4P king. I can see SRL outboxing Pac early on in the fight but Pacs awkward angle punching will mean that he stops SRL late on.
SRR would be a 50/50 tossup. However who better than Roach to come up with the perfect game plan to beat him. I can see Pac posing the same problems Jake La Motta did.
