    FACT: Pacquiao LOST to Bradley, then LOST to Marquez.
    FACT: It takes TWO people to fight. You can't penalize one for making the fight not happen, and then ABSOLVE the other
    FACT: Objectivity is one thing among writers and experts, but STUPIDITY, and CLAIMS THAT LACK BACKING FACTS IS ANOTHER.
    FACT: Recent opponent's don't mean anything if they come with losses.

    in boxing history, "honourable losses" or "special losses" that can include controversial decisions are sometimes given more credit than wins.

    So a face plant from a 40 year old man is an honorable loss now? Okay.

    As soon as I saw a thread from jas I know hes gonna write some bullshxt lol

    I dont think he knows Bradley vs Provodnikov was at 147, Ruslan has one good win at 140 which is Alvarado and Provodnikov also lost to Herrera...

    True.
    Look at Bradley - Provo, Froch - Groves, Klitschko - Lewis just to name a few.

    Wladimir & Adonis Superbitch are not going fight their nemesis so I am already discounting them

    Ioka vs Hernandez, very close but I dislike Ioka early symptoms of avoidance tendencies which could develop into full blown ducking :smoke

    and frazier - ali thrilla in manilla.

    that fight did more for fraziers legacy than his wins over fellow hall of fame fighters jimmy ellis and bob foster

    without ali frazier would long be forgotten by most.
    the man he hated and despised the most till the day he died made him the legend that he was.

    i remember frazier saying he was proud of ali being in that position and he had a ringtone signifying that but that vid goes against the documentary i watched
