Comments Thread For: Hopkins: "When Will Pacquiao Face a Top Black Fighter?"

[imisupu]

He obviously doesn't fight them because other than Floyd, who he has already tried to fight, and Williams, who is at a much higher weight class right now, there are no black fighters worthy of stepping in the ring with Pacquiao at this point.

But yet he fights Margarito to a decision who was KTFO by Shane and caught cheating in his fight before Pacman and Clottey who had just loss to Cotto the fight before Pacman, but somehow after both of those fights you Pac fan's say Shane isn't worthy please explain that logic? You can't no way around except to say oh Shane he old or Shane didn't look good against Sergio give me a break you are starting to sound like Mayweather fans more and more.

man i like hopkins but he says some ignorant sht sometimes. yah pacquiao doesn't fight a lot of black fighters, but who cares? they've been tryin to put this mayweather fight together for more than a year now. would you say the same thing about marquez? pacquiao has been at the lower weights most of his career, there aren't a lot of marquee black fights in the lower weights. the fans want good fights, quit w/ the racial stuff hopkins. id love to see pac fight floyd, alxander, bradley, or even berto, not because theyre black, but because they would be good fights!

I would like to see Pac/Shane happens...for Shane's...

...financial purposes..and I am a big fan of Shane..do you think Shane can beat Pac at this point in time?

i won't say shane isn't worthy. but i will say it doesn't help pacquiao to fight shane after floyd wooped him and a lackluster performance against mora. let's all be real, shane has lost a step. id prefer to see pac in there w/ one of the young guns at 140.

Hatton beat Lazcano and Malignaggi after Floyd. Both live fighters at the time! If Hatton was a dead fighter, he would've lost those fights. So Hatton was NOT FRESH off his loss from Floyd. Apparently you think a loss in boxing is final!! To you, no one is allowed to improve after a loss!! You have Floyd's pathetic mentality!! You want to keep referring back to Manny's KO losses when he was a TEENAGER!! Dude...you're really pathetic LOL

I was replying to somebody pointing out that Shane loss to Mayweather and that he was done and my point was Shane has never been knocked out but Manny has and it will happen again and the point that Pac fan't seem to find excuses not to fight Shane and Paul to big, to old, to tall, they don't bring enough money to the table ummm but step in the ring against Clottey, and Margs come on son! You know that BS in your heart of hearts you know that's BS all of his signature wins came after those fighters were previously dominated check the records Hatton and DelaHoya after the both had already loss to Floyd, Margs after he was crushed by Shane and Paul, Cotto after he was already beat down my Margs I mean I can't help the truth just like I believe PBF and PAC are equally responsible for the fight not happening and I believe Floyd is scared to fight Pac but the truth is the truth Shane or Paul will fight Pacman at anytime!!!!

Please!

B-Hop should have taken his mother's advise and retired before his head got scrambled!!!!

Let's be honest there is only one fight everyone on here want's to see!!!

To those that are questioning Manny's HUGE weight gain I will give you the numbers.

The guy started off as a 16yo kid who was living in a slum and was prob malnourished.
He was 4'11 at the time and weighed in at 100 (will say 98lb)

The guy now fought for 15 years professionally. Has grown 7 and one half inches in height, has the best trainers and dieticians in the business, and fought his last fight way under the limit of the belt he won and was at a career high 148lb.

15 YEARS! 7 and 1/2 inches!!!! 50lbs????? Seriously? I know guys that have put on 80lbs whilst growing 2 inches in 6 months!!!!

Anyone that can show me any steroid that can go away within 20 days let alone 7 days let me know as I have a couple of rugby mates who would be interested.

The worst thing about B-Hops comments is that neither he or most AA greats have ever fought the way PBF fights.

I think PBF will go down as a great but I think that he is tarnishing it by being bigoted and using others in the wrong way

Hopkins and others have forgotten ONE LITTLE PROBLEM WITH THEIR THEORY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Joshua Clottey is BLACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HELLO!!!!!!! And Clottey was beating Margarito, and has beaten others with superb skills!

A top black fighter. Miguel Cotto, Antonio Margarito, Clottey, Hatton, De La Hoya, were all trash, and Pac dominated him. Time to set it up. I don't wanna see Pac dominate all his fights, over and over again, I want to watch a boxing match, not an ass kicking.

Maybe when they earn a shot?Wtf has Shane done to earn a shot at Manny?A loss to Floyd and a draw with Mora?Oh yeah that sure earns a shot lmao
