    easier said than done.

        And what was with the crown booing Vargas when he said ut was only a flash knockdown and he wasn't hurt? Apparently Manny fans even know better than the fighter which shots hurt SMH.

        I really dont think anyone is over reacting here to what Manny did tonight. He isnt prime Manny obviously but he won the fight pretty convincingly. Lets give Vargas a little credit for making it a good fight. You say he didnt look good at all, by what standard are you judging him? He won the fight against a prime young elite WW. What else matters? the dude is 37 years old and still in top form.

          I'll admit it: At this point in his career I don't care who manny fights. As long as the moneys good and the dude is beatable, its a good fight.

            Did you see the voting scorecard? People voting in didn't give 1 round to Vargas. That's insane. I wonder who was voting hmmm.

              Porter and Thurman would have KO Jesse Vargas.

                I don't.

                Porter is a 50/50 fight imo. Thurman stops him. Brook stops him. Spence beats him.

                I see Pac beating Garcia but then again I consider Garcia a hype job and don't consider him elite in any way.

                  He can beat Garcia because he is not proven at 147. The rest of the elite would beat him. Not a huge fan of Porter but he's pretty durable.


                  He'll beat Manny at this stage of his career.
