    Did manny duck joan guzman?

    Before all the weight problems and drug use? Did manny duck this very fast slick counter puncher?

    Nope, Guzman knew he had to join Top Rank to fight Manny, but he didn't. Oh well, Guzman has amounted to nothing.

      yup, and he also ducked Soto

      The sad thing is that if it were up to Manny Pacquiao himself, he'd take all these fights, but you know damn well it's most likely Roach who talked Pacquiao out of fighting these dudes during that time period

          No. Guzman was always a step behind. He moved up after Pacquiao would move up.

          Casamayor on the other hand. That's a duck. He could have fought him but chose David Diaz instead.

            No. Some guys just don't end up fighting some guys. Floyd didn't end up fighting Tszyu, Lazcano, Margarito, or Williams.

            Manny didn't end up fighting Guzman, Raheem, Valero, Campbell, or Berto.

            S**t happens.

              Nate Campbell or Joel Casamayor would have been good fights, better than David Diaz. Casamayor was the RING LW champion after beating Corrales, and had beat Cruz and Katsidis after that. Campbell had beaten Juan Diaz to win the WBO, WBA, and IBF LW titles.

                  Yeah ***** happens , just like your too good of a fighter Shane we will wait till your totally shot , or maybe I want Cotto first choice , ok but no CW , where are those 140 pounders ,,, if you really look at Pacs career he has ducked a lot of fighters and also manipulated a lot of fights .

                    Floyd fighting Hatton was actually a good fight, as good as Pac fighting Bradley no doubt.
