    Pacquiao-JMM 4. Pacquiao had to stop the roids, cherry pick even easier fights and finally fight Mayweather because he knew he was finished as a major draw.

      Mawyeather and the fear of margarito forced him to retire. In hindsight was a smart move but still he had to bitch out to save his life but he used to it *cough* jprince *cough*

            Ortiz became a ****sexual after Maidana beat him. Same with Broner. Broner left his heart in the ring that night, Ortiz left his **** and balls in there.

            Maidana emasculated fools.

              This one went south quickly.


              I was thinking more along the lines of Gerald McClellan after losing to Nigel Benn. Perhaps that is a bit too grim and to the point.

                Can't say it changed his life, but Loma losing to Salido was a wake up. Let him know you gotta bring a different game to the pros. Look at how he fights now vs then. Far more aggressive and gritty.
