    Yes I do remember. I'm a fan but let's be realistic Margarito rocked him against the ropes once. Mind you there was plaster and that's gonna hurt. GGG has hurt bigger thicker men to the body, that will happen in the later rds because GGG will not be KO's in a fight. That jab alone has hurt bigger men therefore it will hurt Manny more because he's tinier. As we all know we have weight classes for a reason. Welterweight max's Manny. He is a 5'5 featherweight kicking arse at Welterweight which is remarkable. That's as far as he can be stretched to be competitive.

I’ve been on record saying I think Floyd had an overall better career, in the ring, boxing and earnings. I may just sway to Manny’s side and a lot of people will who aren’t there now.




      nah, lets say... that fight is a pipe-dream, and G would break pacman in half

      both those options are far more likely, I think Roach is talking out his ass... Manny likely knows nothing about it

        GGG has weaknesses to him period and activity is one of those things that will get him worked over by Pacquiao.
        Canelo fought at 175, Jacobs kidding himself by fighting at 160, he is easily a SMW at minimum. What's your point as it applies to Pacquiao - a smallish 147lb?

          Ya fight should and will never happen (Canelo that is).

            Not sure what you are on about nel o and gg g being shot?
            Ggg less past prime than pac and coming off bad performance but not shot.
            He's the Same past prime gg g that nel o fought.

            Pac taking on ggg now would still be x3 riskier than any fight Floyd has taken

              Never said Canelo shot. Hes literally in his exact prime right now.

              Roach picking on GGG instead of Canelo is what hes always done. GGG lost to Dervenchenko and is literally hiding from Canelo right now...writing is on the wall that GGG is shot. It's a KTFO waiting to happen for Canelo. So of course Roach is seeking that fight.

              Manny fighting and beating GGG right now would be a little bit better than Cotto beating Sergio or Canelo beating Kovalev. I don't personally rate Cottos win bc Sergio literally coulsbt even spar lol for his "training camp".

              I dont know why you bring up Floyd, but I agree he would have no comparable fight

                Ggg is past prime but coming off bad performance doesn't mean your shot, ggg explained reason.
                Pac s come off many bad performances and came back.
                You simplify things so much that beating people coming off bad performances is easy and che rry picking and not brave?

                So if Pac fights callum smith after bad last performance against ryder it's a cherry pick and not a risk? Nothing more than cott o beating sergio? FFS look how ol d Pac is and how much he's done already
                For God's sake Pac s win over Ggg would be greatest win of all time, when you add it into everything else Pac has did, literally in last fight. Pac s more shot than ggg, Pac s had wars, gg g hasnt.

                Your post is just wrong, nothing right about your post, apart from last sentence. And it's because of posts like yours I think Pac can be considered GOAT now. You unintentionally putting Pac to higher standards.
                Floyd wouldn't fight Ggg at 154 when gg g was unproven, just a big guy. Pac would be fighting the gg g at 160 with arguably wins over nelo!

                Pac is the goat now. Pac beating gg g at 160 isn't a big deal because it's expected

                  Don't even know why they take Roach seriously.
                  Pac and him don't even stay in touch after his fights.
                  Arum didn't even listen to so-called Roach's plans for Pac,
                  Crawford said exactly what Pac used to say, "Up to Bob Arum doe."

                    GGG prime vs. Pac is a 1 or 2 round fight max. Now GGG probably 50 percent of what he was in his prime. Maybe less when he comes back again. He needs to retire while he can still talk. He already beat Clenbuterstall twice. What more does he have to prove.

                      GGG is shot. Well past his prime. He needs to get the fk out of boxing now.
