Originally posted by ncboxingfan View PostDude I get your opinion, but it's not really Mayweather's fault who tries to imitate him. Honestly, the fact of the matter is and there's no bias involved, but Mayweather has truly beat the better opposition....he's pretty much beaten the same people as Pac...with the exception of Margarito...but from a talent standpoint...there are fighters that Pac didn't fight either like Guerrero, Maidana, Canelo. There's blame on both sides really...but a lot of the fans on here don't know how to have civilized discussions without degrading each other. It amazes me.
the fight needs to happen. For the fans and for the sport. It would propel the sport in a direction it hasn't been in 20+ years. Boxing needs this.

Originally posted by jjsmyth87 View PostAre you kidding me? Pacquiao beats those guys easily. They are slow flat footed come forward fighters, that's who pacquiao does best against. Those two are tailor made for pacquiao. Just look at his resume he has beaten many fighters better than them. Maidana beat broker and now he's a top guy? Lol I hope al haymon lets maidana out of the cage to fight Manny, he'd have to get another good win in sure he wouldn't fight him coming off 2 losses. Pacquiao would be heavily favored against either of them. Maidana isn't a p4p fighter and is barely top 10 welterweight, canelo is bottom of most peoples top ten p4p list. Manny beat Bradley easily who was number 3 p4p and Bradley has the style that troubles Manny. Manny schooled him 2 times. I could see how someone may think canelo has a shot against Manny because of the size difference. Canelo weighs 170ish fight night while pacquiao is around 145. That's a 25 lb difference although that's nothing new for Pac he would still crush him, but if you honestly think maidana has any shot in the world you are smoking something

Originally posted by Say-so View PostAll I'm saying, both are dominant fighters. Both have been #1 p4p. One has 8 championships, the other has six. There wasn't this much ego in boxing ten/fifteen years ago; everyone fought everyone. fights were made because the people wanted them. this whole A/B side bull**** is because Mayweather brought it into the game (I could be wrong, but I can't remember a single instance). This whole pop culture **** Mayweather brought to the game was a good move for boxing, but I've found it's really hard to talk to Mayweather fans about boxing because MOST of them don't see boxing outside of Mayweather. this goes for a lot of Pac fans, too. It's all bull****. The game has changed and I can't say it's for the better.

Originally posted by ncboxingfan View PostMy point exactly. Can any Pac fan honestly say he'd do the same job on Canelo at 153? We all know the truth, but choose not to speak. Video doesn't lie. How many rounds did Canelo win again? I guess all Mayweather does is run though. Must have been all that running that kept Canelo off of him huh? All that running sure messed Canelo's face up. #Questions#PACFANS#AVOID#Crickets
