Why wouldnt pac fight foreman because he was "too tall"

[..WaRSpencE..]

the "foreman is too tall" quote was a misquote/mistranslation.

i saw the tv interview the articles were quoting.

the interview was not in english.

basically pacquiao's reason was "that it'd be a boring fight and not exciting for the fans because of how yuri fights and how yuri will use his height."

something like that.

pacquiao never said he was too tall.

LMAO!..

It got misquoted that horribly!!?..Nah..I doubt that..

Boring fight? Why did he fight clottely then? lmao @ *******s

Pacquiao would knock Yuri out within four. The guy was a taller Jennings and nothng else to it.

It was just a nice way of saying Yuri sucks. Manny could have easily cherry picked him for an 8th title....especially since they have sparred before and Manny beat the living **** out of him. Yuri's a nice kid and more than likely Manny saw that and didn't want to **** on him.

So he cherry picked Marg instead?

Actually....no....

But marg is the same height and he will fight him?

Foreman is a mover, Margarito isn't.

Margarito practically neglects his height advantage.


put it this way:

huge height advantage + mover = bad style matchup, really.

After the DLH fight, Roach was asked if Pac should be fighting Margarito, Freddie said- we are brave but not that brave. times have changed.

[joelab75]

Are people here actually trying to say Yuri Foreman is a harder fight than Antonio Margarito?

Really?

only haters. all those boxers that Manny didnt fight suddenly become a very good fighters because Manny duck them. like Yuri Foreman etc. etc. *****s are so funny.
