    Picking Mosley is a disgrace for sure, that is almost as bad as Haye picking Harrison, now Harrison is rubbish, but Manny is coming off the back of quite a few tailor made opponents, add in the fact he did'nt seem to want any part of Mosley before they knew he was done, and it dont look good which ever way you dice it.

      Basically. I gave him a pass for Clottey which I thought was a joke fight but, to be fair, he had just beaten Cotto who, at the time, was a formidable opponent for a guy who hadn't really fought anyone at 147. The Margarito bout made me vomit. Mosley? I'm still hoping that's a bad dream.

        Eh...Both are in the same for boat for me in a sense that I just want both to retire and just be gone forever if they're not willing to fight the best.

        What I find hilarious though is that a lot of Pac fans have turned into Floyd fans in a sense that they're making the same excuses that Floyd fans use to make for Floyd back in the day.

        The whole thing is ridiculous.

            I actually did'nt think the Clottey fight was that bad at the time, cause we did'nt know Clottey was gonna suffer stage fright, particularly after losing a close dubious decision to Cotto, I was expecting him to give this his all, but he did'nt even try, which makes the win look like it was never a competitive fight, when I think it would of been had Clottey turned up, although I still think Manny probably would of won, but the win would actually hold some legitimacy had Clottey turned up, cause what ever's been said about Clottey, he is a decent fighter imo, but people have a bad perception of him now cause of how he fought.

                Clottey, cotto, margarito nor mosley was picked between 2004 to 2007.
                corley, bruseles, gatti, mitchell and zab were the best at that time. LMAO




                Pacquiao was fighting everybody (win or lose) since 2003. The likes of barrera twice, morales 3x, marquez 2x and more since.

                    My bad perception of Clottey came from the Baldomir fight--that's all anyone needs to see in order to know what kind of heart that guy has. Anyway, my prediction for the Pac-Clottey bout was that Clottey would quit . The guy quits when he's ahead so what is he going to do against the world's best fighter? It was a tuneup but, like I said, I didn't mind because Manny was coming off a great bout against Cotto. But then to follow it up with Margarito? Then Shane? I didn't know Manny was so popular in the gay community. His fans bend right over and try to explain to others how the act is good. Like...wtf? I'm scared to see who he fights after Shane.

                      So basically what I got from this is that all the Pacquiao fans voted Floyd, while all the Floyd fans voted Manny.

                      IMO this is just a ridiculous topic as both have two of the better resumes (if going off there last 6-8 fights) in the sport of boxing.

                      Both are ATG's and will be missed once they are gone, so I don't get the hate.

                      Just my two cents............
