The way I see it, JMM is in a delicate situation now. You may want to curb your enthusiasm. He has lost his last fight and is seeking a rematch. A guy with his ego, I don't believe he wants to end his career with a loss on his record. So it's sensible to think that he would want a rematch with Bradley. But this time around there will be VADA testing. Either way around with the 2nd Potential Bradley fight he is facing more stringent testing. It is evident that he does NOT want to test using VADA. If he decides to fight Pacqiao a fifth time, there again will be VADA testing. If he chooses to fight neither of these two foes, and opts to fight another contender to avoid VADA testing, then there are some serious implications about him cheating in the sport which will lower his ranking or do nothing for his legacy. JMM seems to be caught between a rock and a hard place. IMO.
No, you ****ing mong, my "premise" is that Marquez and Bradley, unlike Rios, can actually box, which is why they both hold wins over Pacquiao while Rios couldn't even win a round. Pretty simple really, but you're just too stupid to grasp even something as simple as that.
Shutup moron. The fact that Marquez knocked Pacquiao's ass the **** out while Rios couldn't even win a single round shows that it does matter. atschatsch
Pac will be remembered for one thing---KTFO6! What else comes to mind anymore? Dinamita KTFO Pac all the way to China. The 475K numbers prove it.
Rios hasn't beaten or even looked decent against anyone on their level, and yes, Bradley holds a win over Pacquiao. That's a fact regardless of what anyone "believes".
Actually Pac has his posterity assured. Most people aside from hardcore fans of specific boxers, that is to say the vast majority of everyone with any level of involvement in our sport, hold a stronger perception of Pacquiao than JMM. In thirty years' time Pacquiao will still be remembered, and positively, by a far greater proportion of the general population than JMM. The scale of positive name recognition is clearly in his favor. Consider who's held the greater endorsements in their career. And that even now Marquez is thought of by the general fan more as "the opponent" when considered in context with Pacquiao; with posterity that will exacerbate. Think about it: in 2050 who will be most remembered and pointed to as an icon of the sport? Who will be most noted on articles about 'back in the day'?
Goodman, Top Rank: VADA has twice tested Pacquiao :deal The released reads: "Top Rank has requested that VADA issue the following statement, hereby confirming that both Manny Pacquiao and Brandon Rios have each been tested at least twice since they entered the VADA program on September 12, 2013 and that both camps have cooperated fully. VADA salutes Top Rank, Team Pacquiao, and Team Rios for their commitment to clean sport." http://ringtv.craveonline.com/blog/181523-goodman-top-rank-vada-has-tested-pacquiao-rios-twice
Look how old that article is. A month before weigh ins. So when did "supposed" tests happen? Two months before that? Heck it could have been on September 12 and September 13, two and half months out. And if you read it further, it is up to Top Rank to release any results and some BS commision in China. You also missed the article from MANNY'S PR GUY. Now link a VIDEO. Surely, an event like that would be prime material for ESPN, HBO and the Philippines to leave no doubt. 24/7 crew was there 24/7!
