Marvelous Marvin Hagler thinks not fighting Pacquiao will hurt Mayweather’s legacy

[sbbigmike]

At the end of the day it was Manny who pulled out of a already agreed upon fight, it's Manny ppv numbers who's declining, it's Manny who's fighting in china when he's not chinese lol........While Floyd is breaking boxing records without him................

The shadow of this fight only haunts Manny........................

[Carpe Diem]

Maybe Floyd cared about his legacy when he first started out as a young talented prospect, but the fact that he has constantly stated he doesn't care about his legacy and that being in the Hall of Fame is good enough for him should be enough to give these guys the memo that it's something not worth discussing anymore. It's pretty much the equivalent of trying to save someone who doesn't want to be saved. Leave it alone and move on.

i think also it taints manny's legacy, but i dont see what fighting in china and ppv numbers has to do with getting the best in with the best. a big ppv buy count doesnt always equal a good fight. there are many cases in which it did not.

Not fighting a lot of guys has hurt Mayweather's legacy.

Fans turned on him, they were done with the charades, when is the last time Manny fought a actual WW, not one he dragged up...................

Bringing up those points were very relevant to that conversation also, it was Manny who walked away from 50/50 and possibly 100 million, not to mention another 50-60 million in a rematch, now's he threatening to sell 5 dollar ppv's china, and even that he was popular enough anymore to pull off.And added is 68 million in tax debt into the equation that ghost haunts Manny more, why is he not knocking down doors who could help his problems in one swoop...........

Can someone explain to me how Floyd's legacy is hurting, and how's Manny not if we looking at under the from the same microscope????


Floyd is simply beyond Manny at this point, I'd love for Manny to fight his way back into that discussion but Manny clearly didnt want it in his prime, he tried to find anyway to duck even if that meant allow people to believe he actually was a cheat, as a fan it would be interesting to see, but nobody wants to see Mayweather beat on a scared fighter; a fighter that doesn't have the reach to touch his chin................

Both were my favorite 2 fighters even pre Barrera I was a hard down Manny stan when he used to be called a china chin in all, growing up I never thought they would fight their way into a fight discussion....But truth is truth at the end of the day they are both are HOF fighters without eachother but the 2 names together doesn't equal good fight
