Manny Pacquiao made JMM who hes is

[hhs661]

Don't Manny got a fight in a couple weeks? Is it that irrelevant of a fight that people go and try to discredit the legend that is JMM

I don't agree. I was a fan of the skills of Marquez before I ever heard of Pacquiao. His four fights with Pacquiao made him more famous than ever but he had a lot of great wins and was considered a great fighter by most knowledgeable fans even before his first fight with Pacquiao. Marquez helped make Pacquiao famous as much as the other way around. They had four great fights because they are both great fighters.

damn....i actually gonna have to agree with queen meat....Marquez is a legend but take away those manny fights, his resume is average...now pacqauio resume can live without marquez on it.

Floyd's not even on pacs resume and what would he be if he hadn't chased Floyd's left overs?

What's funny to me is that JMM has gotten better with age. And not just better , but WAY better. His best win is at WW against Pac who made a full and successful transition to WW. But his fans cry over the loss to Bradley at WW.

I don't want to think of JMM as a cheater. I'm a fan of his too. But you have to wonder , at that age , to keep improving?? I'm a fan of his , but I have to call it how I see it. He has a decent resume without Pac tho. I think HOF worthy. Not ATG by any means. Can't complain about the competition. But Casamayor in his prime something similar to what Floyd did to him. So if his fans want to make excuses for him being 40 and losing to Bradley. Then that win against Casamayor isn't that impressive.

Would Arturo Gatti have gotten into the HOF if he had never met Mickey Ward in the ring?

JMM and Pacquiao fought 42 rounds. They were very familiar with each other; Pac won 1&2 arguably 3 and looked good until ktfo6.

No excuses JMM knocked him the **** out, and I am a Manny fan.
He was always Pacs Kryptonite but I don't think he would've beat Cotto Margarito Mosley or Bradley at 140+ and I say Bradley because I think Pac beat him the first time and I think Juan beats Bradley if a rematch happens.

I do think Manny made Juan because Manny always was the bigger draw and if you take away JMM off of Mannys resume, it is more impressive than JMM resume.

I don't really see why you think it is something worth gloating about; all fighters build their resume off of the backs of their opponents. Marquez knocked Pacquiao out cold, adding him as a notch under his belt.
