    This has been discussed here several times. The conclusion: people just like to hate on other accomplishments. They will deny it, but their hate has no justifications. I know Manny fans are the most delusional fans in the world, but that is not a reason to hate Manny accomplishments. IT IS WHAT IT IS, sad, but IT IS

        no doubt pac is ATG... overrated? yes.

        i have 2 opinions regarding his CW legacy (oscar, cotto, margs, jmm):

        1. oscar cherry-picked pac (not pacs fault); cotto only needed to lose 2lbs (which is nothing, compared to dawson dropping down to meet ward); margs was a BS fight (but i wanted to see how pac handled 150s); jmm had the "advantage" with the CW (so no knock on pac)

        2. BUT i do have a MAJOR beef with pac getting titles in divisions via CW. i think if he is fighting for a title, he NEEDED to fight at the weight. IMO, they bought those titles & "8th" division record.

        im still trying to figure out where all the hate is coming from... if its because of an unfair way of getting his titles? then i agree... but the whole "draining" excuse is overblown and i feel people needed an excuse to latch onto. and once the CW wasnt an issue anymore, they all jumped on the PED bandwagon.

          Why bring up Chavez??he was JUST randomly tested
          Based on Pac never taking a random test. Peterson and Berto were caught by Vada. When has pac ever taken a Vada or USADA test?

          As for Chavez, he's a known cheat. Has been caught before with a masking agent in his system. Also (correct me if I'm wrong) didn't he refuse random drug testing when Sergio asked? Sergio is now getting 40% PPV because Chavez doesn't want random tests. Basically Sergio has been paid off.

          Could be completely wrong about the 60/40 split of the ppv but I did read it somewhere. will try to find the link

            When there is thousands of articles a year making Pacquiao out to be some god like figure that nobody can beat and does nothing but good deeds. It gets very irritating........

              who cares? hating a fighter is a nuthuggers game...it's up to you if you wanna join them. people blaming a fanbase for what they feel are immature and ******. they spend too much time on forums and these petty arguments get into their nerves. just avoid these childish debates and you should be fine.

                  Manny Pacquiao single handedly revived boxing when Mayweather was busy cycling off, and now the coward duck won't even fight Manny.
                  Its Post like this that gives Pacfans a bad name. If only these posters would actually read what they post, they would understand why the hate
