People Criticizing Pacquiao-Margarito are HILARIOUS

[ThePrince]

I've just been perusing people's complaints here and in other sites. For the most part, the hype for this fight is pretty big and 24/7 hasn't even started yet. I think it will do huge business despite the cry baby 'boycott' brigade. It's just funny the reasoning (I use that word lightly) they use to justify their complaints.

1) "I won't support this fight, buying it is supporting a cheater and Pacquiao is fighting another catchweight championship fight. I am a REAL boxing fan. I will stream it"

Translation: I'm either broke or I never pay for PPVs.

How are you 'boycotting' the fight if you will be begging people for streams on fight night? That'd be the equivalent of Blacks in the '60s boycotting the public transportation system but hitching a ride on the outside of a bus to get to work. Never mind that catchweights are common place in boxing history and present (see Williams-Martinez II). If you want to direct your anger towards the proper place, write a letter to the Texas commission, the WBC, how is Margarito at fault for doing his job, fighting, when the two aforementioned sanctioning bodies gave him the green light? REAL boxing fans would support mega fights like this and help the revival of the sport in the mainstream. But the clowns complaining about the integrity of the fight and 'boycotting' it by watching illegal streams are not only hypocrites, they come off as complete idiots.

2) "Margarito is a cheater and doesn't deserve this fight"

Where were you when Shane Mosley got a career payday to fight Mayweather only months after he admitted on video he took PEDs in the past? Where were the boycotters then? Oh right, putting money into an admitted and proven cheater's pockets by ordering the fight... or probably streaming it haha.

3) "Manny wants to be the best but he doesn't want to fight anybody but washed up old names". (Direct Quote from a Floyd fan)

Pacquiao's last 5 opponents:
Joshua Clottey (32 years old)
Miguel Cotto (29 years old)
Ricky Hatton (30 years old)
Oscar De La Hoya (35 years old)
David Diaz (32 years old)
*Margarito is 32*

Average age of Opponents: 31.6 years old

Mayweather's last 5 opponents:
Shane Mosley (38 years old, inactive for almost a year and 1/2, looked HORRIBLE in his last fight against a reality TV fighter)
Juan Manuel Marquez (37 years old, blown up lightweight, Floyd came in overweight in a catchweight fight)
Ricky Hatton (29 years old)
Oscar De La Hoya (34 years old, fought only once in 3 years since being KO'ed by Hopkins)
Carlos Baldomir (35 years old)

Average Age of Opponents: 34.6 years old

So basically, with the exception of DLH none of Pacquiao's last 5-6 opponents have been 'washed up old names'. In Floyd's case, his last 5 have been old, washed up, blown up, inactive with the exception of the 140-lb champion Hatton (age-wise only). Not only that, Pacquiao is about to step into the ring with a guy who dwarfs him (5'11" to 5'6") after taking on much bigger, stronger fighters the past few years in their weight divisions and knocking their belts right off of them. Meanwhile Floyd is blowing up smaller fighters and taking on guys who are pushing 40.

You do the math

Honestly man it's a bunch of d1ck riding Floyd fans. When you think about it...those guys have to hear how big of a pvssy Floyd is, how he ducks fighters, is a coward...etc, etc.

For years they have had to endured that, because of their Heroes actions, so of course they would try to project those images of Floyd on Manny. Notice it's the same tone....such as Manny is cherry picker, coward etc. Personally I think those guys are pathetic.

[PacquiaoATG]

You nail it. Floyd is a cherry picker. He never prove his self. This time he ran out. And its a shame he duck a lightweight Manny Pacquiao. Floyd fought majority of grandpa and bloated fighters.

WTF

[-PANDA-]

not a floyd fan but this fight is ridiculous

ure comparing apples and oranges if u were dragracing would u rather ur opponent had modified his engine (PEDS-Mosley) or would slash ur tires just before the race began (cheating-Tony)

if manny wouldve cleaned out 135 and 140 then nobody would have any problems with whatever he's doing. panda's not saying he ducked anyone...in fact just because he would clean out those divisions he has claim to begin called the best

manny's not to blame though, he already said tony knew he was cheating

[Reloaded]

Ya bunch of ****heads , you think Arum will allow Margo to beat Pac , Pac is worth to much future money to him , Bob will not allow one of his own fighters to beat Pac you could bet your life on that , if you think Margo is a live chance just like Clottey was you are very gullible , boxing at this level is big big business and Arum will look after his cash cow .

[Bastian Loc]

Super ownage in this thread.


Tony never cheated, has always been clean, and is a Mexican boxing ICON, HERO, AND ATG GLADIATOR.


This is the fight of the year.


Fuck the crybabies.

[ThePrince]

WTF

Mosley admits to KNOWINGLY taking EPO injections; October, 2009

Maybe just maybe you're a ****riding Manny fan who just won't see it the other way.


If fighting for a vacant belt at a catchweight against never the same again shot boxer is okay with you then its on you not everybody else

Tony never cheated, has always been clean, and is a Mexican boxing ICON, HERO, AND ATG GLADIATOR.

tony never cheated?

well the bedroom rapist never got to **** that woman either, but he had his shirt off and his d*ck out just like tony had his hands wrapped and was ready to put his gloves on....until naz came around
