    Outside of the ring, he acts like an ass. Why get mad when called out?

    In the ring, his POTENTIAL to be greater has passed. He should have been in the WW mix, instead he retired thinking there was nothing else to prove. WTH? The different excuses of not fighting was embarrassing for boxing as a whole. You can not claim greatness with that type of attitude.

      He doesn't hide it. There's nothing worse than masquerading
      fairness hiding behind a fake idol. How many times do you have
      to repeat this cw thing on Manny? Oh my, that's pure hate, bud.
      I'm new in these boards, but the impression is not healthy. It's not
      the actual live boxing event you're interested in, like the majority
      of boxing fans are. You're more into the girly side of the sport.
      Wow,U really are new here & have no idea what ur taking about huh!!Well here's an invite to go & check on all the treads I've created to help U see how ****** u sound right about now!!I really cannot stand Floyd,but U clearly are ****** enough to talk without knowing,check the treads I made then see if U can say that ****** **** anymore.

        However, I do find it interesting that a person who feels so strongly that his people are being wronged due to racism, defends a boxer who spewed some insulting/arguably racist comments towards pacquiao and filipinos as a whole.

        Yea you're right, he was wrong for saying that about Filipinos

          I think this is the general sentiment and, give or take a fact here and there, it's the truth. His out-of-ring actions make him a target and make him look ridiculous at the same time. He may get a reality check very soon, in or out of the ring. However, when it comes to boxing, while I wish he stayed busy I can't find fault. A few years ago I could find plenty but not so lately. He returned after a near-two year layoff and took a tuneup in Marquez as most fighters do. I didn't mind so much as long as he took on a top flight opponent next, which he did by fighting the one guy everyone swore he wouldn't. That said, Mayweather probably has one more great performance in him and he's at the age where another elite fighter could rock his world. We'll see.

              The featherweight you speak of gave Pacquiao 2 boxing lessons and is the one who wanted to fight Floyd. Was also rated number 2 or 1 p4p fighter at the time depending on who you ask.. And right after that fought Mosley

              You don't want to discuss the list of bums Duran fought? Some he lost to

                I'm just reminding you that you sound like a broken record.
                I mean what are Manny fans suppose to do after listening
                to your rants over the cw issue. Most Manny fans have said
                that they are not recognizing the title. What more do you want?
                You know darn well that fans wanted Floyd instead of Margs,
                don't you?

                Hm... Are you advocating boycott or what?
