He fought Rios after being ktfo cold. How is it a cherry pick when everyone thought he was done after that ko? Imo that was a good comeback fight.but Of course you'd disagree cause you ride with floyd.

Floyd JMM coming back from over a year of being semi retired but to you guys Floyd took advantage of the weight.

He did, that is just the facts.

Semi retired?

A ducking vacation

are you serious about margarito? lol i dont even have to look it up, he was something like a 6 to 1 fav over margs...

To be fair to Pac by the time he fought Margarito NO ONE was picking against him. He was considered "unbeatable" and could only be beat by himself. It was even an often repeated joke amongst commentators that "anyone who has a belt" will feel terrified; heck they were even throwing in Klitschkos' names in there.

It was way different when he was coming up essentially a career superfeather told to jump up to welter to face a career middleweight Oscar.

I give FMJ credit for the victory, but he did take advantage of JMM. Shame on JMM for letting FMJ off the hook with a 600K pay off.

At the end of the day FMJ was, and still is, the A-SIDE. He can have any crazy demands he wants. If the opposing fighter agrees, then who are we to argue. JMM lost, great win for FMJ.

Same thing with this fight with Pac. Both agreed to terms.. we have a fight.. place your bets.. and enjoy.

P4P king of the last 10 years? Your idol Floyd never fought Manny in his prime, so he never proved to be #1. Here's the Ring Magazine annual P4P list BTW

2005 Floyd
2006 Floyd
2007 Floyd
2008 Manny
2009 Manny
2010 Manny
2011 Manny
2012 Floyd
2013 Floyd
2014 ? Not published yet

The only reason Floyd replaced Manny since 2012 as P4P king, is because Manny was blatantly robbed vs. Bradley and a JMM most probably on PEDs knocked him out. So Floyd never took the P4P title from Many, rather, Manny lost it due to unusual circumstances, not involving Floyd himself.

Are you serious? The only reason why Manny was considered P4P#1 was because Floyd retired and when he came back Manny shared the slot. Not to mention he wasn't considered #1 by every legit boxing site. Manny never beat Floyd to be #1 but rather got it by default.

How can you love being something you never was?????? Pacroid has never been the underdog, even in this fight he's not the underdog....

Lewaba
Morales
Barrera
DLH
Mayweather

I'll say the same thing I said during the first negotiations, Mayweather will throw far less but be more accurate and probably land the better blows. Pacquiao will be far more active but will barley land anything good or clean. It'll come down to what 3 special individuals prefer. Remember Canelo and Maidana were both able to win six rounds on one scorecard.

Fixed it for you

Floyd did come over weight but beat him with pure skill and not with muscle. Was like a warm up to one of the most dangerous nemesis to the great Pacquiao. Floyd beats Marquez at any weight if the fight was made years ago at 130, 135, 140 and 147.

What Floyd did would be similar if Ward in his comeback fight took on Bradley at a catchweight of 163lbs, then came in at his usual 168lbs.

Floyd has no respect for the sport or the boxers.

Marquez jumped 3 weights in a year on a diet of urine and a training programme of throwing rocks.

He came in the ring looking fat bloated and was slow and sluggish.

Were any of the fans calling for this fight.

No, it was just another cherry pick
