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).

Lol @ Bradley and Horn beating him because you know they didn't and while JMM did get a once in a lifetime ko over him out of pure luck while getting the **** kicked out of him, it took him 4 fights to even knock Manny down! Now, on to Floyd who probably blood doped and took huge, abnormal IV's to mask it couldn't KO an injured Pacquiao while his daddy said he was fighting scared!

Bwahahahaha! Go back to debate class, junior.

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.

Total nonsense from somebody who clearly either just doesn't 'like' Manny or DKSAB. Manny beat Oscar into retirement when he was supposed to lose to him. He beat Cotto @ 3 lbs less than the weight he was fighting at and did it way easier than Floyd and Margarito. He starched Hatton, who gave Floyd a pretty good fight and brutalized Margacheato while giving up a massive size, weight and reach differential. Manny has literally one of the best resume's OF ALL TIME! Anyone who questions that is an IDIOT. You can classify yourself if you like, pal. That's up to you.

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!

What the f@ck does what Roach has to say have to do with anything? He just told Manny to retire after Horn and look what he just did. It means f@ckall.

And whether Spence or Crawford could beat old Manny is irrelevant because he would fight either in a drop of a dime. Like he's scared or something. That's laughable. Come up with something feasible to argue because this is pointless.

Go back to debate class boy, I'm tired of giving you a life because you're a Manny hater.

Roach has a lot to do with it! He's his trainer! He should be the first to advise his fighter when to hang 'em up! Someone should have stopped Ali from himself! Maybe Buddy McGirt should have stopped Mad Max earlier? R.I.P.! I'm thinking about Manny's health, and you want him to continue taking high risk fights! You're no real fan at all! You don't see the signs, i.e. Thurman landing more power shots than anyone ever! Luckily there are others who really give a *****, and Manny is not managed by *****ing morons like you!

Pacquiao camp prefers Danny Garcia, Mikey Garcia over Spence, Porter

July 23, 2019:

LOS ANGELES – Manny Pacquiao’s team isn’t interested in pitting the newly minted WBA “super” champion against his fellow titlists Errol Spence Jr. and Shawn Porter.

Pacquiao’s head trainer Buboy Fernandez and Sean Gibbons, an international matchmaker who is now managing the Filipino star’s boxing affairs, are one in saying that Spence and Porter are both high-risk, low-reward opponents.

Especially, they want Pacquiao nowhere near Spence (25-1, 21 KOs), the IBF welterweight champion who incidentally is set to unify with Porter — the WBC titlist — in September.

“What has Errol Spence done?” Gibbons said a day after Pacquiao battered Keith Thurman in their grueling showdown in Las Vegas to become the oldest welterweight champion in boxing history.

“We are not planning to fight Shawn Porter or Errol Spence,” he stressed.

Fernandez, meanwhile, said there’s no point in taking on the 29-year-old Spence, whose style, movement and work rate will likely pose problems for an ageing Pacquiao.

“If we beat Spence, what will we gain? And what will happen if he ends up beating Manny?” Fernandez said.

Instead, Fernandez and Gibbons are looking at either former champions Danny Garcia (35-2, 21 KOs) and Mikey Garcia (39-1, 30 KOs), who previously lost to Thurman and Spence, respectively.

Like Thurman, Danny Garcia and Mikey Garcia — both 31 years old — are come-forward fighters who also love to trade punches, a style tailor-made for Pacquiao.

After what he accomplished in the sport, the Filipino icon has earned the right to cherry-pick opponents. More importantly, Fernandez is concerned with his childhood friend’s career and health

“He is close to 41. What we need to do is protect him and his career,” said Fernandez.

And that’s why he is keeping Pacquiao away from more dangerous fighters.

Heavy hands plus wraps against Cotto... yeah he needed it.

I'm just happy for Pacquiao, that his team is putting a brick wall around Spence Jr.! Manny does not need that in his life at 41 years old! Mikey or Danny would be much better suited! Props to Buboy Fernandez and Mr. Gibbons!
