Why doesn't PAC's win over Rios get as much as Floyd's over Guerrero's?!?

    "Legit" rankings like Ring and ESPN? LOL now I understand what kind of ******ity I'm dealing with. I won't waste another second here.

      the wbc rankings don't mean a damn. i would have thought you got the hint with the whole antonin decarie and Teerachai Kratingdaeggym post i did but i guess not. no credible rankings had berto in the top 10 therefore i don't count him as a top ten fighter. he used to be but poor performances and long layoffs took him out of the rankings at the time of the guerrero fight. you can go back in time and say roy jones was a top 10 fighter but is he now? no. was berto when he fought guerrero? no.

        their rankings aren't perfect but they don't have antonin decarie and Teerachai Kratingdaeggym ranked in the top 10 now do they? yet those crap rankings are the rankings that you are using to prove your point on how berto was a legit top 10 fighter. it makes no sense.

          You're one of the last people who I need to tell me about the WBC's bogus rankings or anything about boxing in general. Don't flatter yourself.

          The point was thar Guerrero beat two fighters ranked in top ten at 147 regardless of what you think about it. Beating Aydin and Berto at 147 is far better than losing to Alvarado at 140. If you think otherwise you're pretty damn ****** and the truth is that you don't even have your own top ten ranking for July 2012 which means you're in no position to talk about it.

            The Guerrero win is losing value with time. I don't see any Floyd fans gloating about that win anymore.

            But Rios-Guerrero would be a good fight. I'd like to see that.

              You have an self-made top ten rankings installed in your brain from July 2012?

                Let's be honest Rios and Guerrero are pretty much the same level, both got granite chins but are as slow as molasses with limited footspeed (Rios probably has quicker feet).

                In fact I think Rios is probably better than that overrated Guerrero, although I respect Guerrero.

                Anyone else remember this shet? Before the fight the Floyd stans tried saying this could be an upset ROFL to make the inevitable win look better, anyone with 2 working eyes could see Guerrero didn't have a chance in hell.



                Guerrero (pre-Thurman) would have stopped Rios. Rios is slow as hell, predictable and plodding. Guerrero would TKO Rios. Post-Thurman Guerrero can probably still woop Rios.

                I'd like to see Rios vs. Thurman! LOL

                And Guerrero would have given Pacman a tougher fight than the one Rios gave him.

                  The only real brutality in that fight would be Rios getting his dumb ass kicked!

                    Rios from the Alvarado 3 vs. Thurman from the Guerrero fight.. Rios out works him or cracks his chin.

                      I'm not the one who questioned whether Berto or Aydin were top ten when Guerrero fought them. So I don't need to come up with one. Do you?
