    **Simon narration: Bob Arum has promoted many of the world's great fighters including "The Greatest".

    Arum - "I did 25 fights for Ali,"

    Simon - "You're saying.. you're saying that Manny Pacquiao is a greater fighter than Muhammad Ali?"

    Arum - "Yes he is, because Muhammad Ali was essentially a one-handed fighter. Manny Pacquiao really shocks these fighters, because he hits equally hard from the left side or the right side."
    I don't think so BOB, the road Manny has been through is a red carpet compare to Ali's gaunlet. I know he's trying to be humble, but stuff like that should be said with your inside voice.

            Of course Bob is going to say Manny. That is his cash crop right now. Gotta keep hyping him up.

              This piece on 60 minutes was pure propaganda!!!!!!!

              NO mention of PACMAN losses.
              NO mention of PACMAN turning down 40 million because he is scared of needles.
              NO mention of PACMAN refusing Olympic style drug testing to prove he's clean.
              NO mention of PACMAN, well Roach only is letting MANNY fight weight drained fighters.
              NO mention of PACMAN being previously knocked out by a nobody.
              NO mention of PACMAN fighting a known cheater who was caught with loaded gloves.
              NO mention of PACMAN fighting for fake titles, you got to fight the real champ of the weight class at the maximum allowable weight of that weight class!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

              60 Minutes should not be allowed to do a piece on boxing in the way that they did it. PROPAGANDA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


              ARUM "Manny the best fighter he has ever seen". REALLY, REALLY, ARUM!!!!!!!
              PACMAN may be the most EXCITING fighter ARUM has ever seen, but the best NO WAY!


              Had 60 minutes told the non-boxing fans that were watching this piece that PACMAN refuses to prove that he is clean by being tested in the proper manner, the story would not be WOW we got to watch his next fight. The story would be what is this guy trying to hide?


              In America the one who refuses to be tested is probably doping and is a cheater!!!!!!!
              That's just they way we see it in America.

                    You must be very frustrated with your life.

                    I suspect you of using drugs, therefore you should undergo OST before you post, if you refuse, then you are definitely, 100% on banned substance.

                      That's a great reply to someone who seems to be completely focused on hate.
