Of course, coz floyd is the king of fantasy fights. Was Manny the betting favorite when he beat Barrera, was he when he dismantled Dela Hoya?
Becoming a betting favorite does not determine your greatness. It is by beating the odds (betting underdog) that makes you a legend.
Pac is a legend. and we are "WITNESSES".
The point is he is arguably the best. Jordan was clearly the best. I think most experts are going to pick floyd if they fight. Thats why if manny were to win it would be so impressive. He would be the underdog at the opponents true weight.
Again false opinion versus true facts. No matter how many times you call floyd a f@g, gay, ellerbee lover whatever. MANNY CHEATED ON HIS WIFE WITH A HOOKER!!!
Now who really let who down?
i dont care if Pac f@cks other women as long as he doesnt f@ck gays. I appreciate Pac the boxer coz he is a legend. borrowing from Merchant's line " Pacquiao is a gift that keeps giving to boxing."
Basketball has only recently become an international game. It's history is not as long, nor nearly as rich or deep as boxing. Manny is his generations greatest phenom, no one has ever done what he's done. 4 lineal titles, 112 pounds, 126 pounds, 130 pounds and 140 pounds. That is the stuff of legend.
Come again.
True dat. great accomplishments. Floyd has 4 lineal as well. Again, I'm not knocking pac. great fighter. 1st ballot HOF. But there are 2 reasonable fair criticisms of manny:
1.No title defenses like the ATG you compare him to
2. The lack of a US born and bred "slick" boxer (the kind Hopkins described to Pavlik) on his record.
The point is he is arguably the best. Jordan was clearly the best. I think most experts are going to pick floyd if they fight. Thats why if manny were to win it would be so impressive. He would be the underdog at the opponents true weight.
So Barrera was not in his true weight when he was dismantled by Pac?
Come on, Pac's legacy is already sealed and beating Floyd will only be an icing in the cake. Pac=Jordan, Floyd=Barkley.
