I have refrain myself to steep to the level of a ******* but after seeing threads after brain washing threads discrediting Floyd's greatness. I'm posting this. There is a reason why Pac has to fight JMM four times, A shot Morales 3 times and over the hill MAB twice. IT IS BC PACIQUAO IS AROUND THEIR LEVEL. Floyd is on another level. Very apparant. Pac does good against guys who can't box and slow. I like Manny but the hype on him got out of hand. Manny was in his physical prime and gets outboxed by morales? Are you kidding me? When he was rising to the top, he loses to unknowns. Seriously... and gets kTFO by a 40 year old. The hype gotten ridiculous bc he beat a drained Oscar, already beaten Hatton, semi drained cotto, and Margartio. Four fights, and now we have to listen to tards spew about his greatness on the level of Floyd??? come on man.
Oh yeah bc beating a badly faded ATG who can't even make weight is much harder task than to fight an in prime elite who can actually fight back. Manny is so badass that he loses to unknowns, have to ask for advantages, fight guys coming off bad beatings. BUT HEY HE BEAT OVER THE HILL AND SHOT ATGS!!!!
Mosley isn't, the other two make a case. Mosley has 50% record since 2001, not a sign of greatness anyway you look at it. Effectively losing every other fight means you're average. That's worse than average for champs.
people forget the mayweathers came back to boxing after 2 yrs off after seeing pac destroy hatton in 2 demanding drug testing when they never did that before. you had floyd sr crying like a ***** saying that mofo is on roids afer pac stopped cotto in the 12th. they used the drug testing excuse to their advantage to avoid a fight with pac. yeah, pac was most likely roiding but what makes everybody think floyd wasnt doing the same for his whole career before they saw the pac monsters reign?
I'm not a big fan of Shane but he will be considered as an ATG. He is one of the best lightweights in history and his two victories over in prime Oscar seals him there.
Fighters get accused of PED abuse all the time. Floyd Jr. wanted to fight Pac and his dad said to make sure you ask for a random blood test bc he believes that "mofo is on some ****" and when Floyd Jr tried to put it in the contract WHAT HAPPENED? Pac Bail and run like a little disgraceful b. You look at Pac's head at flyweight and then you look at his head at WW. The guy got a bigger dome in every face off doesn't suggest foul play? How naive people are. F**king tennis is tested year round randomly but boxing is not. And people doesn't see a problem with that is basically in favoring of cheats. Do you see any apparant abnormal growth from Floyd?
I don't disagree about PEDs and it's possible Floyd could be using them, the guy makes enough money to afford the best. But avoiding a fight because of Pac KO power? No way. That's fan BS talking. Floyd was getting beat up by his own father when he was a little kid (Floyd seems to suggest this in candid interviews), do you really think Floyd is afraid of Pac? It seems to me to be a calculated and failed risk to increase $. He was to make what, 15 mil back then? In a few years it was 50 mil. No boxer at the championship level is scared of any boxer near their weight. That's fact.
