    that's the fucking point of boxing!

    you fight a challenge , you win , you look for another bigger challenge.

    where you dropped on your head as a child?


    you think a fighter gets a great win and it means he doesn't have to fight another tough fight again?

      Floyd should still fight him. If he doesn't fight Manny, then I renounce myself as a fan of his.
      If he beats him then good on Floyd! It's what we want to see! He can't continue to live off of laurels won ages ago, against past opponents, most of whom had very little chance of beating him anyways.

        Yup thats what fighters with balls do. Pac started out winning @ 122 and people said yeah your only good at that weight, lets see if you go fight a p4p fighter @126 and pac beat the living hell of Barrera and then @ 130 then @ 135 @ 140 @ 147.. You go figure. People who wants greatness should owe it to the fans to show he is great. Pac did it. If may wants to be like pac. A 7 division champ he really has to go to middleweight. Geez your so blinded by hate, but you can't see that pac fought all comers and went up to prove his greatness. When your boxer floyd is in the spotlight you say ooops people would want him to fight at a higher division.

        Pac has reached the top. People don't really have to ask him to go higher @ 147 he has climb mt. everest with his built. If mayweather wants to be like pac he has to go to middleweight to reach his summit. How ironic how you say people will always have something to whine about may but the truth is people are like that. You want to dare to be great. Then do great things. Pac has done the impossible. So people won't anymore tell him to fight any higher. Hew has proven his a warrior. In Floyd's case, yes it wasn't enough he will have more critics coz he always takes the easiest route to fight fighter that are always at a disadvantage. It's what fighters do prove critics wrong. Pac has done over and over.
        Again, if you look at floyd's career, like him or hate him, and reach the conclusion that he has never fought tough competition then IMO you are a ****ing idiot. At no point did I bash manny pacquio. Your post makes my point.

            If floyd does the same to manny it will be well waht about paul williams or cotto or someone bigger than manny.
            when floyd came out of retirement yes, but instead he fought JMM. Mosley as an opponent didnt look as hot 1 year before the actual fight, due to him being inactive for a year and a half waiting for a fight. Also people were still sour over the manny-floyd fight falling through.

            Very few had mosley winning, and you cannot deny mannys name overshadowing both camps

              No d!ckhead. as some of your fellow osters are showing they feel manny has reached the apex. If manny wins its just "icing on the cake" but if floyd wins there is more to do. Manny will not be expected to face paul williams or martinez or tim bradley.

                he got no choice really except retirement.
                Fighting Hatton might be his other choice. That's embarrassing. Being defeated by Hatton would double the embarrassment. But then fear of Pac may be very real.

                  Before the fight, alot of experts picked SSm on the theory that floyd never fought a big true top flight ww. After the fight it was SSM was a 38 yr old man that somehow didn't deserve to be the #1 ranked ww.

                      did you ride in a special bus to school?

                      you don't think if manny beats floyd people wouldn't want him in against another guy who can beat him?


                      when a fighter beats someone , the next thought from fans is "who do i want him to fight next? or who can beat him?"
