Why are Wlad fans so darn obsessed?

[Neuraxis]

Exactly. He hasn't lost badly even when he is facing the best fighters in his weight class.

Wlad got KTFO'd by guys who weren't even top 10. See the difference?

Maybe you should tell that to Medgoen Singsurat and Rustico Torrecampo.

Neuraxis.

That was at Flyweight.......quick! Name the top flyweights of the world in the Mid 90s. See what I mean? They could have been but you wouldn't really know. Plus in the match against Singsurat, Pacquaio collapsed because of weight making difficulties.

Actually I checked them out at Boxrec and they didn't look like much.

Even so.....Flyweights never really were. Occasionally the division will have one or two standouts.....but that is it.

But I thought Pacman was never beaten by lesser opponents like Wlad was?

[topi]

I think both,V&WK can blame their opponents because they have punch them good enough to win.Blaiming too much vaselin they can say only when they go in bed together.

Hmmmmmmmmm nice.

I would actually have to reach for a counter arguement......but hell I have the patience, so why not?

These losses were very EARLY in Pac's career. Physically and experience wise Manny was not a mature fighter. Many things have changed SINCE THEM. For example, he was not training with Freddie Roach during these losses.

Wlad's losses, happened LATE in his career. And as Late as They were....him fighting Corrie Sanders was considered a STEP UP from what he had fought. Wlad was considered a fully mature fighter. They did not occur relatively early in his career.

The same can be said for the Purrity loss. Yet that didn't stop people from bashing him because of it.

Not many mention Purrity, there is alot more concern for Wlad over his last two losses, there is a legit arguement to say he was young, inexperianced and didn't know how to pace himself - lack of maturity or whatever.
