Mayweather Wrong about going from Ordinary to Extraordinary

[HaglerSteelChin]

One thing May keeps saying is that Pac got knocked out twice and had two draws but now he is unstoppable. Well there are many guys who had losses early in their career were great and even ATG fighters. Henry Armstrong loss his first fight, Arguello had a couple of losses early on, Salvador Sanchez had both a loss and draw early on, and although Monzon wouldn't lose in his last 80 or so fights he did have 3 losses early on.

Pac's first loss was a bordeline low blow from Torrecampo, he was weight drained against 3 K battery-but a loss is a loss no excuses, and his first loss to Morales he didn't wear his 8 ounce gloves and did fight with a cut eye. All are legit losses, but it didn't suggest that Pac was a generic fighter. In fact, he had power even very early on his career as i have his early fights as well. He got better by refining his skill with Roach.

Just because you suffer early losses- dosen't imply you can't be a dominate fighter in future

Actually it's very simple to go from Ordinary to Extraordinary for Manny's career.


In his early career his trainer was some philipino dude who probably couldn't even spell "right hand". He got as far as he did with talent alone. He wasnt groomed up by word champion family like Floyd was. Floyd is just a spoiled brat of boxing that doesn't understand the hardships Manny had to endure to be where he is today.


Then the changes really came when Freddie took over. It's simple as that. He was coachable and Freddie took him to the next lvel.
