It's not called "biased" Bernard, it's called racist.

Unfortunately, Floyd is a woman beating son of a drug dealer father and a drug addict mother who himself may be headed for jail for the criminal genes that he has inherited.

why did i even click this link?????

It's not about that ,floyd would beat him any given day but if duckquiao could demand a million dollar penalty for each pound then floyd can demand a OST.

Even if he doesn't take the test and floyd beats him it's not good because the world has to know that he's been doing illegal stuff.

dude all we have right now is a fantasy fight... i can tell u right now that manny will easily break the nose of floyd and u will tell me that floyd will potshot his way to victory over manny...non of it will make sense unless these 2 guys fight...if u are a fan of boxing..enough of the catchweight enough of the 10 mill per pound and enough of the drug test etc...make the fight happen!!! u should support this as a BOXING FAN if u really are a fan of boxing or just a floyd fan...

As ****** this ex con is he does make valid points.

I like pacquiao I think he's an amazing fighter and top 5 ATG but you can argue about him being legit. He's been matched up very well for quite awhile now. In all honesty I hate mayweather and I like pacquiao but I think mayweather would beat pac if they would fight.

Myweather would win 8-4 rounds, due to his speed, ability, and very very much longer reach.

140 and above even Max Kellerman is saying that he is matched well.

Lyle, maybe you should should cover a sport you might know more about. Boxing is now your strong point. As if Clottey was "that" slow. This whole article is dumb. Manny has fast hands and quick footwork. How many fighters are able to claim that?

He's going to be faster than most fighters!! Idiot.

This guy should be banned from writing about boxing.

I remember an interview last year where Hopkins said word for word that Manny Pacquiao was the only one that could beat Manny Pacquiao, he also added that Pacquiao would beat mayweather. Maybe his opinion changed, but he`s most likely just looking for attention.

And Mayweather is from the streets?!?

Pac fans can argue, debate, call names and even make **** up
all day but the fact still remains that, the sport of Boxing, different
fighters and even Bob Arum himself is in agreeance that Manny has
not fought a black America fighter. Like I said, doesn't have to
be a black fighter necessarily but a fighter with some defense and
foot movement. We already witnessed 5 fighters trying to out
muscle Manny but none that has tried to outbox him. Cotto made
an effort but he is a mental midget when faced with adversity.
Once Cotto sees that he can't hurt his opponent dude starts
peddling fast. Just put Manny in with a live wire. That is all
we are asking for as boxing fans.

I've said it on this board way before Bernard said it publicly. Everyone knows this already and it is TRUE! Fight a slick fighter already Pacman instead of dead men who show up and try to bully with slow feet and no game-plan. That's really why Paul also lost. He tried to fight... That was the dumbest gameplan ever for a 6'3 154 pounder!

[rambov]

All I am saying is that outside of main stream media and people under 13. Most boxing fans agree with this.

Pac and Arum are about making money. Slick Black fighters (except Floyd) don't sell fights. Pot shot and hold = boringggggggggg. People want to see mixing it up, not running for 12 rounds. If he fights Shane, he was washed up. It took Floyd 10 rounds to get Hatton out of there. Manny 2. Floyd couldn't hurt Manny thats why he would lose.
