    After the Pacquiao beat Cotto? I started to refer to him as 'Bionic Paquiao' his performances just from a physiological perspective where so great 'I put them on the same level/magnitude as Usain Bolt's at that time' They had that same kind of shock value, that what you where witnessing was not normal.

    From Oscar De La Hoya to Antonio Margarito/Shane Mosley 'That run of fights was the most destructive/influential run fights since Mike Tyson's first reign as heavyweight world champion'.

    That was Manny Pacquiao's peak, which mysteriously disappeared almost in a instant.

    Disappeared once Floyd asked for random drug testing. Manny was like no I need to know when I will be tested.

    hmmm

      I do my best to not try and underrate someone that is stull green because I know that there is a lot room to grow especially if you are still in the beginning stages of your career.

      But there are times that I legitamely underrate a boxer and these are the ones that I can remember off the top of my head.

      Danny Garcia (thought he was too slow and winging with his punches), Badou Jack (after the 1st rd KO loss), Canelo Alvarez (knew he was good but surpassed any expectation I initially had) and Jermell Charlo (light punching amd had a very close fight with Vanes, who was decent at the time).

      There are more from earlier years but I would have to think back for those.

        Cleverly never beat an elite fighter other than Bellew. As soon as he stepped up to an elite fighter, he got smeared. I know exactly who he is and who he fought. Nothing special and that makes Bellews 2nd best win, not all that great. Learn to love it because its truth and I don't give a turn of your opinion on it. **** off now

          but floyds testing program was a sham. pac had every right to be hesitant to do it. did you miss the part where floyd cheated and got away with it? you are still attacking pac

            Got it. Why not just cut to it and say, "hey, I'm a Brit and can't see past my own fanboy shores and will defend Bellew regardless even if it makes no sense"? At least then, we can have a real conversation.
            You mean the way yanks are still sucking Mike Tyson's **** "to this day" because he's the last elite HW they had?

            Brits don't need to be fanboys of a retired CWs. Our HW's rule the world!

            Rule Britannia!

                Admit it casuals, you all underrated Fury. I was calling him the real deal a decade ago.

                I underrated Manny, no way did i think he could match up against the big boys, i think i picked Hatton to stop him.......

                Whoops.

                  Who said nathan cleverly was elite?
                  Cleverly was a good champion with a good record and beat quite a lot of mandatorys
                  If you cant see how special a fighter Kovalev was youre so simple minded

                  Oh wait a sec....

                    If you didnt think price was going to surpass him pre thompson you were an absolute idiot back then

                      Only casuals ever picked Price over Fury, it was common knowledge in the UK that Price had a glass jaw.
