Comments Thread For: Roach: Without Pacquiao, Mayweather's Legacy is Ruined

[wlliam]

Its obvious pac and floyd not fighting would be an aterisk on eachs legacy, although Floyd would get criticized heavily, Pac wouldnt get a pass either especially finishing his career fightinn 3rd tier fighters..Bobs ruining the guys career

[woopwoop]

Of course you would!! I would't expect anything less... and Btw im 30, no kid here Son!

Pacquaio also had a chance to put floyds name on his resume, at a time it was at its absolute "Peak" and pac "Chickened" out from blood testing, saying he was afraid of needles, but he has tattoos and ear piercings??? Thats pretty comical if you ask me!

Youre 30 and still lack boxing knowledge When did you start watching boxing when you were 27? lmao. I'm done with you kiddo you lack boxing knowledge and rationale.

If Floyd doesnt fight Manny; in 20 years Manny will go down as the greater of the 2.

hey dude...you are a straight ***** for getting me banned...ive seen you do it to other posters too


this is a boxing forum....not your 9 to 5 you are competing for a promotion on


if NSB is your life then cool but you are a clown

Nope not at all. Manny needs this fight, he needs the money. Arum need to give manny this fight. Why can't other fans of manny be open about it. I'm a big manny fan. But I'm honest, he needs this fight and 2 he will lose. Manny is either gonna fight Mayweather and lose while making a lot of money or become a two to three million dollar gate keeper fighting no name up and comers well past his prime in China. So if you believe Mayweather or manny is ducking the fight. As a fan of boxing you don't want this for any fighter especially manny but that's what roach is doing to him.

Oh yeah?? I think its you who dont know boxing, that or your too bias to understand.=lack "rationale! Pac and arum kept the fight from happening in 2010... and i've been watching boxing for 22 years! While kids were watching Wrestlemania i was watching fights like chavez/randall carbajal/gonzalez hoylfield/moorer ect..i got tapes of hagler/mugabi,leonard/hearns camacho/mancini duran/barkley, done seen em all!. cmon son post some of these knowledgable post's you claim you do, because frankly im a lil appaled by your weak responses..

Pac is past prime so full credit wouldn't be given to mayweather by boxing historians anyway. If it does happen finally, it would be all about the money.
These two fighters are almost 40 they are past prime.

O toothless ONE, Pour yer wisdom upon us poor souls, help us we are in a Quandary, somebody is Convoluted, is it us or you, OH oh sorry OLD TOOTHLESS ONE, please help us and Tell us The TOP PRIME WW ELITES JR HAS FOUGHT IN THE PAST TEN YEARS that gives him the title of the Greatest of ALLLLLLLLL TIME ?

Thankyou in advance OLD UGLY TOOTHLESS WONDER !

you jumping from post to post and thread to thread
spewing the same non sense


How many top ten welterweights has pacquaio defeated after 2009 and how many has Mayweather faced....TOP TEN AT THE TIME THAT THEY FOUGHT THEM?


Manny.....Bradley and Mosley in the last 5 years....2 wins over ranked welterweights in the past 4 years


Mayweather.....Mosley, Guerrero, Ortiz, Maidana 2x( 5 wins over top ten comp)

[peplz]

Doesn't take away from the fact that Floyd needs Manny on his resume. You can slice it anyway you want it but Floyd won't be considered as great without that win. You can blame bob all you want but if Floyd really wants the fight and cares about his legacy he will be willing to comply with Manny's side which isn't asking a lot anyway.

So basically all of this legacy talk from Roach and the media is a ploy to try to make Mayweather give in to whatever contractual terms Bob Arum and Pacquiao want. We are basically being sold the notion that Mayweather needs this fight for his legacy and Pacquiao doesn't need the fight at all because the media favors him and trashes Mayweather and no matter how much Bob Arum and Pacquiao duck and prevent the fight from happening it's Mayweather's fault. If this is the case what is Pacquiao's motivation for taking the fight? I mean if they believe this is the way the story will be written it seems like it's in Arum and Pacquiao's best interest for the fight to never happen. Because Pacquiao will be seen as a greater fighter of the two specifically because they never fought.

[Larry the boss]

Why did Floyd fight Maidana 2 times??? ok...why did Manny fight Algeri even 1 time?

[peplz]

Roach is basically ignoring the fact that Mayweather has been calling Pacquiao out for the last couple of weeks and continuing with the same old rhetoric as if it never happened. It seems pretty ****** but it's working. So if people will continue to fall for it why shouldn't he continue to do it.
