    I can't beleib there's some people who don't consider him the GOAT. Did you not see the footwork last night? OMG. Punching is overrated. Foot work is the new punching.

    C'mon, I LOVE JMM but he didn't dominate every fight of the trilogy as the 1st fight was close even if it was only because of the kd's which was the case. Rd by rd he dominated if you want to say that but on a points basis winning by 1-2 points isn't dominating. Fights are scored by pts anyways so he didn't dominate the first bout. I am about to rewatch & re-score the first fight in a few minutes.

    He is now?

    Because two judges saw him win a close fight and nearly everyone is saying that JMM was robbed?

    That's an interesting take on overrtating you have here on 22 pages.

    Now, if after the fight, fireworks went off, balloons fell from the ceiling and the whole boxing world started singing "Manny - That was the greatest win of your great career"

    Then maybe people would be overrating him.

    As it is RIGHT NOW, he's the most criticised.

    Pac is the biggest sham, the biggest fraud in the history of boxing.

    1.) Pac used steroids to beat and Old Barrera, Old Morales, and other handpicked
    2.) Pac ducked tought fighters like Mexico's Humberto Soto, and Juan Diaz, and others
    3.) Pac has had FIXED FIGHTS w/ DelaHoya, Clottey, Margarito, Mosley
    4.) Pac uses EPO, HGH, A-Side Meth (agimat), and other PEDs that Ariza gives him

    Pacman is the Most Overrated/Overrhyped boxer in the History of Boxing

    Yep, right behind Ali who looked less than "The Greatest" against Kenny Norton in three fights.

    Pac's footwork was pathetic! Lmfao..wow

    all the amatuer hooking he did..guy would get dominated by floyd..

    Floyds arm length alone will give pac hell..never mind his skills.

    Pac has pathetic footwork and sloppy combos..floyd by ko n 7 maybe 8 or 9

    You can pretty much stop reading right there. Barrera was at the height of his career heading into the 1st Pac fight.

    :rofl:patsch

    Barrera had been fighting for 15 years, had slowed down, and it was the consensus he left something in the ring vs Erik.

    Watch him fight pre Hamed and post Hamed and you'll see the crisp, fast, relentless puncher slow down and get sloppier and passive.
