Comments Thread For: Arum Says Danny Garcia Not an Option For Pacquiao

[Build That Wall]

lol @ comparing Brook to Mayweather. He doesn't have the reach of Mayweather or nearly the skill of Mayweather. I think it's a tough fight though but it's no 117-110. Probably looks closer to Pacquiao/Morales 1, except with Pac winning and without the 12th round southpaw stunt.

Pac by close UD.

Mayweather gave a bluprint to fighters who have long reaches. This is the way to beat Manny. Use your size and reach.

Unless your name is Juan Manuel Marquez. You can do your own thing that way.

It's like you only know how to see the weaknesses on his resume. He g****d Devon Alexander not even 1 year ago.

I'm curious to know what your current top 10 WW list would like.

Peterson and Garcia were the #1 and #2 guys respectively at 140. Khan lost to them both. Beating an average guy in Algieri, and a slightly better guy in Alexander does not change that he couldn't beat the top tier talent in his division. That in and of itself makes him not a top fighter, especially at the weight class directly above where he couldn't beat the top guys :/

what blueprint? you mean run and hold?

Khan is not top notch, and neither was Brandon Rios, or Chris Algieri.

I always show praise to Pacquiao and give him his full respect for his accomplishments in the sport, but after Bradley he's fought all gimmes outside of Mayweather. What he's achieved in the sport doesn't need false inflation to make other fighters look bad.

after bradley 1, he fought jmm

after bradley 2, algieri who beat prov and gave khan a tough fight

So since Bradley II, he's fought gimmes (except Mayweather) like I said. It's only 2 fights. Not like I tried to trash his entire resume lol

Provodnikov nor Aligeri were elite to begin with. Khan used to be elite, but not anymore. Pacquiao would kill him in my opinion. The only thing I want from Pacquiao before retirement is to expose Keith Thurman, or fight Kell Brook. Those are the only fights I think still matter to his career.

He's had a legendary run. There's literally nothing else left for him to do.

Honestly I think Pac would completely school Danny like 12-0 or 11-1, so Arum saying no is a good thing for Danny/Haymon.

The Arum/Haymon beef makes this an obvious impossible fight currently.

since bradley 2 he's only had 2 fights, genius.

bradley 2 was last year.

"SINCE BRADLEY II........" LMFAO


was peterson-khan the one in DC? with all DC judges?

yeah khan won that fight imo. bogus scoring.

[orionb]

i agree

he would dance around the stationary garcia and avoid nearly all of garcia's telegraphed punches. garcia just follows his opponents, and then pauses before trying to time a left hook-right hook.

That's kinda why I said "it's only 2 fights," genius. I see that went over your head somehow, even though I listed all of Manny's fights since Miguel Cotto in chronological order, and obviously know that there's only been 2 fights in between Bradley II and Mayweather. Stop being so quick to attack, and you know, READ and COMPREHEND the post before you reply :/

The only point of my original comment was that Manny has not been fighting guys both young and elite. In his last 10 fights (dating back to 2010), the only young elite fighter that comes up is Timothy Bradley.

In any case, you seem to be missing context. The post that I replied to said that Manny only fights young, top notch fighters, which is entirely false. Outside of Bradley, there have been no guys on his list that are young and top notch. Algieri is young, sure, but he was not and is not elite by any means.

he's fought GIMMIES (aside from mayweather)

a gimmie then. one. singular.

he fought bradley, algieri, mayweather.

the gimmie was a top 140 fighter who beat prov and gave khan all he can handle.

pretty damn good.
