floyd last 5 opponents = coming off KO victorys...

[loui_ludwig]

mosley KO margarito
marquez KO diaz
hatton KO castillo
dlh KO mayorga
baldomir KO gatti

very impressive by floyd...you could criticize the marquez fight but you cant do it with the others....esp baldomir he had a crazy year where he upset judah then KO gatti which no1 thought would happen go back in time im right as usual and floyd brought him back to earth....floyds resume is very impressive....

Yes they are very impressive, but:

-Margarito mindset wasn't there cuz he got caught cheating.
-Marquez fought Diaz at 135.
-Castillo is shot.
-Mayorga has no skills at all, kinda like Margarito, but Ricardo is more of a wild puncher swinger.
-Gatti has been KO'ed before. He has been in 3 wars with Micky Ward. Been in 4x fight of the year, 2x with Ward, Ruelas and Robinson. Even Mayweather beat up a shot up Gatti but against Baldy, Arturo is just is more shot.

Now lets look at Mayweather beating this last 5 opponents
-Mosley hasn't fought since beating Margarito. Took him 14 months before he fought against Mayweather. And remember he trained for about 2 months to face Berto, got cancellled due to Haiti earthquake, rested a couple of weeks, then trained again for 2 months for Mayweahter. That is a lot of training, bascially he overtrained.
-Marquez jumped up 2 weight divisions to face Mayweather. I have no problem with this fight actually but Mayweather broke the catchweight of 144. JMM's best weights is at 126-135.
-Hatton, yes Mayweather KO'ed him but its at 147. If you guys know, Hatton fought at 147 against Collazo and not impressive at all. Hatton said it himself that at 147, the opponents are just to big for him. Even most fans who saw the fight thought that Collazo should have won. But at 140, Hatton is undeafeated.
-Baldomir, even though he beat Judah and Gatti, his slow and have a good chin. That sounds like Margarito. And you guys calling Pac a cherry picker, Mayweather cherry picked Baldomir. Do you really think that Baldomir was really a threat to Mayweather? Hell no, the reason Floyd agreed to fight Baldy.
-Dela Hoya, well it was at Dela Hoyas weight at 154 but his out of prime and hasn't fought in a year since facing Mayorga. And before that, he wasn't really impressive against Sturm which many believes Dela Hoya lost. Then BHOP KO'ed Oscar. The only diffirence in the version of Oscar that both Pac is that Oscar decided to starved himself instead of making 147 the ballooning up to 160 or more, that is Oscar's fault, not Pac.


Hey, you guys discredit Pacquiao, then it can go both ways, whether your a Mayweather, Pac, Martinez, Cotto, or Marquez fans.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

Facts don't lie. You know why this is so funny..... I know *******s didn't know this info. They're probably all over the internet looking to find out if this is true.

Manny's toughest opponent was outclassed by Floyd!! lol

[RockyB]

This is pac's run

Oscar- Trash UD over Forbes (lost his fight before)
Hatton- Beat the featherfisted Paulie who could not keep him off
Cotto- Destroyed by Margarito, beat up by Clottey
Clottey- Faded down the stretch vs Cotto somehow got a pac fight
Margarito- Destroyed by Mosley.. terrible vs journeyman
Mosley- Totally outclassed by Mayweather, Barely pulled out a draw vs bum Mora

I cannot believe he is held in such high regard for this...

Pacquiao is a former FLYWEIGHT! that alone makes all of his recent wins VERY impressive.

[fcastro1]

mosley KO margarito
marquez KO diaz
hatton KO castillo
dlh KO mayorga
baldomir KO gatti

very impressive by floyd...you could criticize the marquez fight but you cant do it with the others....esp baldomir he had a crazy year where he upset judah then KO gatti which no1 thought would happen go back in time im right as usual and floyd brought him back to earth....floyds resume is very impressive....

lets get this into perspective though, boldomir is a journeyman, hatton out of his weight and marquez bloated featherweight. Oscar and mosley are way past prime.

[fcastro1]

Off topic. I dont know how anyone can support floyd at this point. Pac is taking meaningless fight yes i agree to an extent but at least he is fighting like fighters do. Floyd took a vacation came back and had a supposed hit list to beat the best. Dude came back for 2 fights to pay his bills. He lied to the fans he never had no intention in fighting the best because if he did he would be doing that as we speak. Seriously this guy has taken everyone for a ride and i cant believe people still have the nerve to support him.

all while not requesting catch weights very nice.

roberto duran jumped 2 weight classes to fight SRL, Mosley jumped 2 weight classes to fight oscar. They both won. Skils pay the bills...the reason JMM didn't beat floyd is because Floyd has better skills. all that other nonsense u talking mean nothing!!!

hatton weighs close to 180 lbs in his off time. So if anything not having to lose as much weight should make him stronger and more durable. hatton fighting Floyd at 147 was not a disadvantage in hatton favor. In actuality he benefited from it. yes hatton struggled with Collazo, but Collazo is a huge WW. For someone Like Hatton wh uses more of force than skill then of course he would struggle against bigger man. however, Floyd doesn't use force to win fights. He boxes and he is quite good at it.

Baldomir was the lineal champion of division. How can you cherrypick the #1 guy? If floyd cherrypicked baldomir, then every championship fight is cherrypicked. That assertion is ridiculous and your argument is very weak.

as far as Oscar, u said it yourself that Floyd fought the better version. Floyd fought him at his division with all stipulation in his favor. Also, floyd hadn't fought in 6 months. So time off for Oscar helped him if anything. It gave him plenty of time to rejuvenate.

Mosley was the champion of the division, the best in the division besides mayweather. Mosley defeated the man who defeated cotto who pacquiao had just beat. Plus Mosley was far better opponent than say a joshua clottey!

I wouldn't call Pac's recent opponents trash. But they were definitely favorable match ups to make him look good and he's done just that. In fact he's looked incredible. If you count Mosley along with Cotto and Margarito all have taken some serious ass whoopings in their fight leading up to Pac.

to sum it up it is called cherry-pac-kin
