"Pick someone thats going to come forward"

[The Surgeon]

Well its clear guys who stand off him give him far more trouble than straight at ya brawler type guys and people want the best fighter to rise to the toughest challenges.

Pac and Mayweather ARE and SHOULD be held to a higher standard than the rest of the game, they are special.

But its true Manny will never please everyone with his opponent picks, someone always be biitchin.

Marquez is his nemisis and style wise a real nightmare for Pac but at 147 will he stand a chance? Id pay to find out! Still id favour Manny to stop him tho after the Mosley fight im less confident in that pick, Juan knows Manny better than any fighter out there and that counts for something too


Martinez? Unreasonable to expect Pac to fight this guy and if he did he'd insist Sergio boil down (to make it fair) and if he won then it would be because Martinez was weight drained

Bradley is a credible fight but i cant see Tim doing anything with Pac, i like Pac to score a stoppage outta nowhere around 6

Williams would be a big ask and if he isnt dead at the weight Manny would wanna fight at i think his size and volume will be VERY hard to overcome but should Pac manage then its a Huge win!

Cotto rematch? Im a big Cotto guy so im intrested, i believe he has a chance second time around with Pacquaio experiance, knowing what works and what dosnt plus having Steward in the corner but i except this is a bout the general boxing crowd has no intrest in and i dont blame them Manny was spectacular when they fought and deserved the big win

Khan? Wont happen

Ortiz for me is Pacquaio's best option at this point, Young, fit and strong, happy at the weight, highly credible after his Berto victory, skilled, huge puncher, fast and versatile enough that he COULD Box ala the Campbell win so that should keep guys like me who want him tested happy but he is predominatley a come forward fighter who can hurt u or be hurt so a great fight looks like a given. Credible and exciting - this fights a winner

But lets be real its MAYWEATHER we all wanna see in the other Corner!

Its not considered slick because he wasnt landing anything effective, nor was he counter punching......

The difference between,IMO, the Shane that Floyd fought and that Manny fought is that Shane came into the Floyd fight with 100% confidence, whereas after his 2 bad performances...he would have been doubting himself before the Manny fight.....

So to be considered slick, you have to land effectively now? I guess Juan Manuel Marquez is slick, right? But wait, hes not African American, so he doesn't count, right?

So when Pernell Whitaker fought Tito, he wasn't considered slick anymore? Are you saying his counter punching was effective?

And how do you know what Shanes confidence level was for these fights? Do you have a room in his head like John Malkovich?

[PAKYO]

okay so what does this prove???? okay manny dominated shane more than floyd and floyd dominated jmm better than manny???? now what???

It's an unfair comparison man, jmm i expected to get KTFO by floyd and not just totally dominated with pot shots.

[jtiger777]

Yeah right, the usual retort for people who get's clobbered with their own reasoning.

"They don't know boxing"...damn...

so shane is a slick boxer??????? seriously

[-The Game-]

Shane fought Floyd just 370+ days earlier. Is 38 not old?

and no, Floyd did not dominate Shane more than Manny did. Shane actually won rounds against Floyd.

I can't think of one in which he bested Manny.

lol...its not just about how many rounds you win. its how you win them....Floyd won MORE rounds MORE COMFORTABLY against Shane......

Its funny that Shane was moving backwards for the majority of the fight, added to the perception that Floyd is a boring fighter, yet there were no boos......

If Manny was completely dominating rounds...there would be no reason to boo him.....

And dont give me that bull**** about Shane running....because Pac easily beat up Cotto once Cotto started running.......

I think it's fair to say that Whitaker was really faded, washed up fighter by the time Tito got to him. That he really wasn't considered slick anymore at that stage.

I guess you also consider Marrade Hakkar slick against Hopkins.

Movement does not equal slick

[PAKYO]

so shane is a slick boxer??????? seriously

If we follow the definition most of the people here uses "slick", then yes.
That's what Chinga was trying to convey and one thing most is that only this time you people are trying to call out on this kind definition but did not before.

Double standards?

i don't know if *******s are just playing dumb and making shit up for the sake of argument or if they're genuinely ******.

People were booing Shane for punking out. Now that we have that out of the way, how does it get more comfortable than having your opponent run away from you for the majority of the fight?

Shane ran from Manny. He didn't run from Floyd. That tells me who was in the comfort zone. Manny was. Now, you can coddle Floyds balls all you want, but he was not more dominating that Manny. Seeing as how Shane stood toe to toe with him and ran from the little Asian guy, tells me that he was petrified of being hit by Manny.
