Order them, download, youtube, whatever. The funny thing is, I never really enjoyed him. But he was really ****ing good. Best fighter since the Leonard/Duran era.

Sounds to me like a crappy excuse. So you just admitted that Manny wouldnt have anything more than a punchers chance against Hearns and you say that it is ridiculous that someone would say that an atg would only have a punchers chance against another atg.

I said he would get KTFO. How does that equate to a punchers chance? Also we are comparing a guy who looked like a monster at 147 to a guy who argueable may not even belong there.

Again this is Manny's 7th weight class and off the top of my head I believe that was Hearnes 1st weight class. I mean If we wanna play that game then Duran also gets KTFO by Roy Jones at 168 as well

Yeah, to be honest this is why I don't talk about them too much, cause I don't know enough about them yet, but I wanna know more and more because its from these guys were everyone learnt all the oldschool stuff.

I think Pete would have beat both Manny and Floyd.

Well pick up any of his fights. Doesn't matter really because he fought so much tough opposition in every weight class. He won his first title in his twelfth fight. And won his last against a respected champion who dropped a young Winky Wright five times. Beat Chavez, Nelson, McGirt, Ramirez, Haugen, Vazquez, Mayweather and arguably a prime Oscar at the tail end of his career. Not always exciting to watch but he always won.

More people need to do this, I do exactly the same thing. I educate myself on the fighter before I open my mouth on him.

Umm, real simple. It's called Whitaker-Chavez. You should watch it sometime.

A puncher's chance= the only way fighter A has any chance of beating fighter B is by landing a lucky punch. Let's not even use the word "Lucky" and just state that they only can win by landing something big. Let's think about what we are really saying with a comment like this. Basically you are implying, indirectly, that nothing in that fighters game will work against the other fighter and for him to win he has to hope to land something big.

Chavez had things in his game that could work against Whitaker. He lost that fight but that still didn't mean he was reduced to a punchers chance as his only hope to beat Chavez.
