    Hatton had fought there before, so it wasnt like he was new to the weight. And Bradley himself was once a 140 fighter, who moved up to fight Pacqiauo.

    Cotto was in the best shape of his life against Mayweather, hes was at a new weight and had a good run and had his confidence back, it was Roach who decided they wanted the Cotto fight after Cotto looked like **** against Clottey and that was not too long after Cottos beating against margarito. Mayweather fought a much better Cotto. When Cotto fought Pacman, he was trained by his best mate, Diaz did a much better job with Cotto.

    And they dont apply to the naturally larger Canelo? who most on here picked to beat Mayweather.

    The hypocrisy. "Canelo will beat Mayweather, watch" "Oh Canelo was never that good in the first place".

    Canelo may go on to do great things, im not going to dispute that, but he had enough credentials going in to the Mayweather fight.

    Canelo would wipe the floor with both Pacman and Bradley. As would Mayweather.

    If Bradley was undefeated, are you conceding that he beat Pacqiao the first time?

    Because in essence, what has Bradley done at WW? He beat a very old JMM anda rough/tough Provkinov. But if i say Mayweather beat Marquez much more convincingly, many years ago, you will denounce that Mayweathers win over JMM was better.

    In fact Mayweather beat JMM much better than both Bradley and Pacqiauo and JMM himself is on record saying Mayweather is p4p number 1 and that he would beat Paqiao, (He said this to his face)

    At one time or another, Hatton, JMM, Cotto and DLH have all said Mayweather will beat Pacqiauo.

    Manny cant even answer the question without looking back at his promoter. How sad.

    This hurts me because even though I give him a hard time, I do like Manny.

    At this point I just wish his fans understood that Manny will fight Floyd whenever Bob Arum tells him to. Manny has no opinion, no voice, no sway, no choice... nothing.

    Matter of fact Roach is on the record saying "On our side I think Arum wants Mayweather to be our last fight" this weekend. I mean... what else do you need to know?

    That's business. It's not dictating his life, it's making him an offer. TMT manages boxers, that the business they are in. At the moment TMT, golden boy, al haymon , and show time are the people to be with. Manny fights under TMT he gets a 40m-50m payday. If I said to you come and work for me and I'll give you a salary, I'm not dictating your life or career.

    I don't see as comical. Nothing funny about $50m. Manny has no one to fight under top rank. ( unless you wanna see Bradley 3 or Marquez 5!). Do you really think it's comical to move to a camp where he can fight Lara, canelo, maidana, khan, callasso, guerro, thurston?

    You don't know **** about the boxing business.

    Those are not good fights and prove nothing. Even if Pac won the 5th fight, some people will say JMM is still 3-2 against him. and KTFO6 is stuck in histroy even if Pacquiao wins

    :lol:

    Pretty funny that the ***** agenda is now to play up Alvarez' greatness while at the same time downplaying Bradley's accomplishments, who has one of the best resumes bar none for the last 5 years.

    Before Floyd agreed to face Canelo, he was a guy who, according to *****s:

    1) Was gifted the title by Sulaiman via Matt Hatton
    2) Got a gift against Austin Trout
    3) Was called "GASnello" ad nauseum

    Now all of a sudden, since Floyd has beaten him via a catchweight clause, he is the heir apparent and the greatest thing to happen to boxing since Floyd.

    I love it. :rofl

    Based on bradley having no power and Canelo walking thru him. and based on Pacquiao throwing wild combos and not being able to stop anybody in over 4 years.

    Already made a thread a long time ago and everybody says pacquiao doesnt have a chance in hell in beating Canelo. so how the hell is bradley a better win??

    Bradley was #2 @WW, Canelo #2 at JMW. win was for Lineal title. Pacquiao nor Bradley has ever had lineal title at WW. Canelo cinsidered the futrue, bradley is not.

    No way its a better win then Canelo

    Put it this way, Floyd is the ONLY WW who could beat Canelo.

    Put Pacqiauo and Bradley in there with Canelo and see what happens.

    Bradley's resume is currently better than Canelo but if Bradley stepped in the ring with 152 Canelo he would be carried out, period.

    He's telling the truth, why would he lie and say nonsensical crap like the rest?. He pays Arum to find opponents for him and promote, nothing surprising here. Pacquiao has always continued to fight top class opposition and continued to say the same thing when asked about who he wants to fight next, I don't see why it's an issue now.
