    Stallone apparently already has the rights to make his biopic in America... They are waiting for him to retire and/when he runs for President of the Philippines, considering Duterte has openly made him his heir apparent... that is in 2022 also coincides with when Manny says he is going to retire.

    When its all said and done Pac will be considered Top 10 all time in boxing.
    agreed. Green karma when i can give more out too

        The best that I've witness fight has to be May. A combination of credible opponents through multiple divs and having THE SPORT declare him p4p king for most of his career supports my case.

        Ali is the best HW I've ever seen and would vote him the ATG HW.
        WOW

            Yes they have. Armstrong had an entire book by journalists exposing his doping many years before he was caught.

            Mosley was listed in Balco, same with holyfield.

            Mayweather was caught back in 09 and a credible journalist(like with Armstrong) came out and said he got a TUE to cover up three failed tests. Fast forward to 2015, he’s again getting a TUE behind the commissions back for questionable reasons.

            Mayweather has a lot of parallels to Armstrong. Has seemingly been caught before and had it covered up, has a team/gym full of juicers, Armstrong bribed the ICU to cover his positive test, Mayweather pays more than anyone to USADA at 150k. Many people have noted the relationship between Haymon fighters and USADA, the high fee, the unwillingness or reluctance of USADA to work with the commission.

            When it comes to Pacquiao you got nada.
