    Listen **** happens. I think Khan is a great fighter he just happened to get caught. Pacquiao happened to be in some battles and lost very young in his career. dont be a hater bro

    He got hit with no headgear on.No excuses, he just got hit ( in the exchanges) and could not recover.He was young and

    skinny at time.No one is perfect Mr El Cyclone de Guantanamo has been down a few times with out the head gear on.

    Yeah when he was malnourished in a 3 world country, coming from there to being a 7 division champion from 106 to 150 beating great boxers and being the best fighter of the last decade makes him deserving the hype.

    so gamboa is the better boxer now? he cant even finish deleon whom lopez annihilated in less than one round.

    This is exactly what will happen if you attempt to analyze a boxer and your only resource is boxrec.

    you are begging for an argument with the troll seat reserved for yourself.

    and another thing, adding the line 'i love pacquiao but' is simply ******ed.

    :patsch Really? You made all this fuss over that? What a colossal waste of time and effort. Here's a news flash, NO ONE is impossible to beat. Happy now?

    Pac didn't come out of the amatuers with an established team around him. His career wasn't carefully plotted to allow him to grow gradually. He learned on the fly and in the ring.

    Many great fighters have experienced a loss or two early in their career. It's only been in the last couple of decades that undefeated records became the goal of promoters.

    Every great fighter who has been truly tested has lost a fight.

    and Mr. Gamboa Express, you will be a future 4th or 5th generation hater of pacquiao. and remember, pacquiao silenced his critics in a BRUTAL fashion.

    Pacquiao is the truth. Those were early losses. He struggles with boxers and rips apart sluggers.
