Default Who Here will Never Give Credit to Pacquaio for his Achievements?

Besides the flomos, who else will never give credit to Pacquaio for what he has achieved?

In all seriousness, what was the point of this thread? If anything, Pacquiao gets a lot of undue adulation.

I've previously said he's a top 20 ATG with room to go up or slightly down. He's a top 30 for sure, I'll say.

Barrera is one of the if not the best win of the decade. Cotto, Hatton, Sasakul, and Ledwaba are great wins. The Morales and Marquez rivalries are legendary, overrated or underrated as people see them. The insane weight jumping to wrap it up. His legacy is secure and well known.

Great fighter. But he's not what most people think he is. If the avg Pac fan gives him a 10 out of 10, he's more like a 7.5 or 8 in my book. Good guy. Terrible fans. Most of them want him to rematch JMM asap. That tells me they care more about winning/reconstructing their image than Manny's health.

Haters , who else? Why do you care what ppl on an internet forum think anyway. History will decide how Pacquiao looks, and he'll be rembered as one of the greatest. If anything this 4th fight just made him more legendary, imo. This is one of the greatest modern fights which will be remembered for a long time.

I gave Pac his dues before he even ventured north of 135.

Default Re: The "Whine About Mayweather/Pacquiao" Express!!!!!!

Shame its in this thread now. But the main point is, with all the Pac bashing going on, people forget that a former 106 lber have defeated ATG giants many weight divisions higher than when he started. I can confidently say I will probably never see this happen in my lifetime again.

Default Why is Mayweather scared to fight someone with a chance to win?

Real fighters fight hard fights.

Pac and Marquez fought eachother and it was roughly 50/50 on who people thought would win.

Martinez and Chavez fought, and it was the same thing.

Ward and Dawson fought, people were split.

Donaire is going to fight Rigo, people will be split.

THE BEST ARE FIGHTING COMPETITIVE FIGHTS. FIGHTS THAT PEOPLE THINK THE OTHER GUY WILL WIN.

Shit, HOPKINS has been doing this for YEARS at the age of 50!!!

Yet, Floyd's bitch ass who talks all that shit, and is younger than Martinez is taking on the easiest fights that there are.

NOBODY in their right mind thought Marquez had a chance.

Mosley was given a puncher's chance, probably the best fight Mayweather has taken in years. He actually fought someone fans thought was acceptable.

Then his bitch ass fights Ortiz? WTF?


The he fights a used up, washed up, no stamina in the late rounds Cotto who can't beat any real 154 lb fighters, but ran to the weightclass so he could cherry pick small guys coming up.

And now GUERRERO?

YOU GOT TO BE FUCKIN kiddin me. DId anyone see Guerrero vs Aydin? That was a fuckin terrible fight. Man, I almost had to turn the channel.

AYDIN is a primative, skilless fighter and gave Guerrero almost all he could handle.

Why does this pussy get away with this shit?

FIGHT CANELO, YOU BITCH.

You avoid Pacquaio and now roid Marquez knocked him out. You avoid Margarito and left the sport for 2 years and lost HUNDREDS of millions of dollars of revenue.

And now you're avoiding other challenges like the bitch you are.

STOP TALKIN THAT SHIT, and FIGHT SOMEONE that has a chance for once.

STop being scared.

That is all.

A lot of people were backing Marquez

The moment Dawson agreed to 168 we all knew the fight was a joke

Chavez is just a cab driver on steroids living off his fathers name and most if not all expected sexy to beat him.

Not much to say on the rest but as for the above parts... hyperbole much?

Mostly the Mexicans I'll admit, who were incredibly biased, but still enough to make it damn near 50/50.

But Chavez did have huge size.

Mayweather won't fight someone with a size advantage like that.

He's too pussy.

He was too scared to fight even Margarito. He retired for 2 years and lost hundreds of millions of dollars after telling Margarito he would fight him when he got bigger.

Margarito destroys Cotto, where does Mayweather go?

On vacation like a bitch.

People were saying Mayweather was running scared from Mosley too until the fight was signed.

Don't cry, bro.
