Comments Thread For: Pacquiao: Thurman Is Heavy-Handed, He Hit Me Like Margarito

[Boxing Goat]

Pac proved at 41 years old that he can still take an asswhooping. Manny was built for asswhoopings. He loves taking asswhoopings. Bring on Erroll Spence next! Pac is not running from no asswhooping

Manny is still 40 (ydksab)
Manny won (ydksab)
Manny dished out the asswhooping (ydksab)
You don't shy away from showing others that YDKSAB

If PAC would “duck nobody” can explain why he fought Brandon Rios who had just lost to Alvarado?
Or Mosley who had just lost to Floyd?
Or Clottey who had just lost to Cotto?
Or Broner who had lost his last 4 fights?
Or Mathysse who hadn’t fought in 2 years and had lost to Garcia?
Or Margarito who had just been KO’d by Mosley?
Or David Diaz who nobody knew of?
Or Horn who was only known in Australia and still beat PAC?
Or Oscar who had lost to Floyd and at catch weight?
Or Hatton who had lost to Floyd?

Please explain to us without getting hang up on Floyd!

You questioning Manny's resume shows how little you know about boxing. There's a reason that he was fighter of the decade, twerp.

Fighter of the decade is what, a hype fed award, a political mix of winning over name guys not necessarily in form , being liked and the hyped generated, its an opinion.

I dont think he was questioning Mannys resume, he was adding some proven facts that add or take away merit of a fight to the fights that are not so apparent to his fans that dont understand form leading into a fight, how weight jumps effect guys and how promoters feed a guy some Cans after bad losses and then fire them into a big headline fight of off their name and some easy wins over B graders.

They did it with it Cotto, Hatton, Margarito, Mattythsee, Vargas.

Boxing is a business dont get lost the romance and macho as there is lot of shenanigans in the sport that builds some of the best winners.

Answer the question Moron!
Fighter of the decade is based on wins over three weight drained fighters (Margo, Cotto and Oscar).
Who the **** did he fight after that? Eight years of irrelevant fighters and he got beat 4 times anyway (Floyd, Bradley, Marquez and Horn).

[Ca$ual Fan]

Seems like Margarito is really heavy-handed, plaster or not. Even Manny admits it and you all know this midget can take punches. Except for Mosley (he didn't land any punch from this guy), seems like Margarito has ruined every notable fighter that he has faced. No wonder not many fighters are too excited to face this dude.

Manny vs Margarito was a crazy fight, size difference was huge but while Pac got hit by some heavy shots, he put an absolute beating on Margarito, just beautiful lightning fast flurries there. Great fight

That fight would have been equivilent to Floyd vs GGG!

Do you realize how slow Margarito is, in a 26ft ring at 150lbs , makes Thurman look like a speed machine and Keith is slow when talking hand speed Marrgo is a sloth.

Pac is a warrior and would fight anyone but Crawford and Spence fights are all wrong for him at this point (I would still root for Pac though). IMO, he would’ve beaten them in his prime no doubt.

I agree 100%, however I'm not sure Pac could beat either one in his prime, only because Spence is a big southpaw with fast hands, and Crawford switches stances with ease, and is a monster too! I can't think of any of Pac's WW opponents that had the skill set of those two! At this point in his career, I would not advise him to fight either one! DSG or Mikey is the path I would take!

What does Freddie saying he doesn't want Manny to fight someone at 40 matter? Hell, he was recently fired for even mentioning that Pac should think about retirement and look who was right about that. Manny doesn't fear any of them fools. Prime manny would have f@cked either of them up and would still give them h@ll.

NO, this wasn't at 40! This was way before Manny fought Jeff Horn! You seem to be missing the point! Take his nuts out your mouth for a second and breathe! No one is saying that Manny couldn't beat them in his prime, but I have serious doubts! However, that's irrelevant, because that's just a mythical matchup!

Manny got hit a lot by Thurman, and it would be even worse if it were Spence or Crawford! I think if he wants to continue, either Garcia would be a better matchup! Manny said himself that he went to see Spence vs. Garcia to look at Garcia, NOT SPENCE, so I think he knows what's up! We all should be happy for that!

Whether you like or not, Spence gunna get that L.

He's the weak link out of the top 3 at welter! If I was Freddie, I'd take that fight in a heartbeat!
