    Yeah, sure, you know me. Opinionated is the most ******ed description of anyone on earth. It basically means "holds strong opinions". If you don't hold strong opinions, what the **** do you have to talk about?

    Judgemental? When?

    Dour and negative, well whatever. A few people realise I'm just being very sarcastic - you're obviously not one of them.

    He managed to hurt a former super-feather once in the whole fight and that apparently has "ruined" Pacquaio? Laughable. Who's the one with the gammy eye?

    I'm not on a wind-up or making things up.

    I recall reading a reports about Pac post fight saying his aides had to help him move around because he was in pain from a rib injury caused by a body shot. He went to hospital to get checked out & spent a couple of days in bed.

    Might be wrong but thats what I remember.

    Vargas should maybe shut up - he hardly hurdled the debate calling Cotto fans Cottosexuals. He's just jealous of Miguel's v-neck sweater.

    Flashtards is my personal favourite. Hopefully it'll catch on.

    Have you actually seen the fight? Margarito was playing with the guy and was showboating during the fight.Whats the point in being out the ring for 16 months only to come back and do the guy in one round?

    Pacquiao said himself it was his toughest fight and when talking about the bodyshot Tony caught him with said " I was lucky to survive that shot" :lol:

    I have a different recollection - he just looked diminished, like he was reluctant to engage.

    More to do with Margo's size than anything else, but I somehow doubt it's tougher than the three fights he lost to Marquez and the one he lost to Morales. Fighters say all sorts of things. They are rarely reliable until years after the fact.

    I've said it for ages. That fight took a lot out of Pacquiao. It was his most physically demanding since he's been on this run. He took more damage then people realise.

    I think it's getting a little overstated now though - plenty of people have said it. He took a clubbing against Cotto too - these are much bigger men landing hard shots on a much smaller man. It's going to take a toll.

    Nah, i don't think it was getting overstated at the time, perhaps now for the wrong reasons. Back then people were mesmerised by another dominant Pacquiao performance to even notice.
