      Garcia was taken the distance by, and never once hurt or wobbled, Adrien Broner.

      Manny had Broner staggering all over the damn ring.

      Mikey Garcia's weakness is a busy fighter with at least some power. Pacquiao is ALL WRONG for ya boy. You're overhyping him because of who he's fought so far - and his fight against Spence will highlight what I said. Mark it down and come back after that fight.

          He was never even #2.

          He never even sniffed the P4P list.

          But I suppose Calzaghe fans have to create false realities to attempt to enhance what was an extremely underwhelming career.

            Mikey's style is all wrong for Pac.

            Pac has a better chance against Spence then Mikey does. Too much weight/skills/strength for Mikey to overcome.

            Mikey can beat Pac tho.

                Like I said before. Mark down the thread and come back after the Spence fight. And I don't want to hear excuses about weight, either.

                People think I hate Manny - I don't. I have no respect for him since he ducked The Hornet rematch, but I don't hate the guy. I do know this: A 40-year old Manny Pacquiao makes short, quick work of Mikey Garcia and VERY likely causes him to pull a Naseem Hamed/Michael Spinks - retire after that one loss in disgrace.

                    I think the eye test still stands as one of the ways of looking at a fighter but obviously competition and manner of wins should be taken into account.

                    With Broner, however, it was entirely different. The various groups involved in making the p4p lists did so purely on the basis of wanting to promote Broner as the new American star, even though they saw him barely get past PDL and Malignaggi.
