    If Pac-Man beats Floyd.... you know damn well *****s would turn the shyt around and say, "he never beaten a YOUNG slick African American fighter".

      nard could barely handle a junior welterweight tito.

      i had the tito fight a draw before the premature , unwarranted stoppage.

        This is getting ****** now.

        Pac kicks the ass of every black fighter 147 and under not named Floyd Mayweather. And last time I checked, Floyd himself doesn't want the fight. So what's the problem?

Heck Manny could knock them all out, we just don't know.

          Pacquiao if he retires today is an all time great. But without answering this question, he can't be considered the greatest.

          Great than why don’t we settle this issue by getting the so called “greatest” slick boxer in Floyd in the ring with Pac.

          Wouldn’t that silence the naysayers ?

          Too bad Manny is the only one out of the two willing to take the chance in doing so and while Floyd is still on vacation….

                    This is what you've been reduced to, huh Dios? Hiding behind an alt and talking in broken, semi-coherent English.

                    Go **** yourself.

                      You don't have to be black to be slick...Marvin Hagler doesn't fight like Pernell Whitaker...
                      It is a matter of style. If we want to get techinical here. Manny has beaten Oscar De La Hoya who has an Olympic background and is an american style fighter, but not african american. So maybe when people put race out there it is not merited. But if you want to be considered in the same breath as Sugar Ray Robinson, there can't be any questions. You can't have people asking those "yeah but questions" because regardless how you or I feel there will be questions out there unless Pac fights and beats a few guys with the so called "African American" style. I think Manny beats Mosley, Berto, Bradley easily. Mayweather is a pick'em fight. But Mayweather is dodging Pac. So Pac in the meantime should just make a few million and shut his critics up.
