    Nah I agree with you. I don't consider him slick. I was just saying that on NSB, people use the word slick for different reasons and the word has lost its meaning.
    Some fair points.

    I'm not judging him based on resume alone though. I just don't he's as good as people make out overall, he's not that talented, but has great desire and will power. He's solid, just not elite for me.

    And what is NSB?

        You looking forward to the Man Utd game btw mate?

        I'd take a point now if offered, I know they haven't been any good so far this season, but it's still Man Utd.
        No way, we will take them apart. We have to go at them though and not be hesitant like we have been in the past few years at Old Trafford.

            Ha, not as confident as you, but hope you're right.

            Apparently Carrick could be out for them, which is a big bonus. He usually plays well against us. They've got no controller in midfield without him. Hopefully the donkey Fellaini starts

                His resume looks good on paper but most of his performances were just mediocre.

                He doesn't put on dazzling, dominating performances like Mayweather or Ward. Yet you have morons putting him up there with them. *** outta here.

                    He will never dazzle because of his lack of punching power and him not being extraordinary in any one area. All you can go by is who he beat and if he continues to win, you can't deny him his spot.

                    With that said, he ABSOLUTELY needs a rematch with Pacquiao. Even if it means taking a paycut and travelling to Asia. That's the only way to really clean up his track record and erase all doubt about where he stands.
