    I don't think people really care that much that he lost to Barrera and Pacquiao.

    Morales still fought them. He's a boss.

    Agreed... Not sure why Floyd fanatics think that fighters are loved only if they are undefeated. The most beloved fighters in history lost. As boxing fans we don't give a sh!t if fighters lose a fight here and there because we like them for being bad asses and fighting anyone, not for protecting their records and proclaiming to be the best ever whilst fighting the Berto's, Guerrero's, and shot fighters..

    FFS, who runs from a B or C level fighter!!??? :lol::lol::lol::lol:

    Ortiz did not 'go on to beat Peterson and Berto'

    Ortiz 'went on' to get stopped by Lopez and Collazo, actually.

    Went on means what they went on to do after the fight.

    Exactly, which is why I like Floyd. he was able to come back from fights like JLC nd maidana 1 and put an end to the doubt

    Did you ever think that maybe thats the reason they didnt move up.

    If floyd stayed at 130 then morales, barrera, pac, and juan wouldnt have moved up.

    Again, we're discussing who fought the better opposition. Morales' noteworthy opponent list is two names deep. I don't believe that's enough to say Morales has fought better opposition than Mayweather.

    They didn't move up because they started well below the 130 pound class. These guys are smaller than Floyd. And by the time they were 130 pounders Floyd was done fighting for legacy and became "Money" May.

    When Floyd was at 130lbs there's no way any of them would've even thought about. Particularly Pac being promoted by Murad Muhammed. No Black fighters was Manny's rule. And Floyd was the most avoided fighter at that weight in his era.

    Pacquiao was barely rehydrating to 130 when Floyd was fighting Corrales.

    Barrera's first fight at 130 was in 2004.

    Marquez was a career featherweight.

    Morales too take a while to reach 130.

    They were all small.

    Well if you knew anything about boxing or Manny you'd have no questions.... If I wanted I could find the article where Murad specifically states this. But why for a scrub like you.... ??? The article was even posted on fight hype in about 10 parts...

    Lol... really dude..?

    First you say you know about a rule that Manny Pacquiao had back in the early 2000s regarding fighting black fighters.

    I have never read, or heard anything so absurd. If you have a link please provide or STFU and stop making sh!t up.

    Then you say I don't know anything about boxing because I've never heard of this rule you are familiar with but no one else is.

    You're lucky you're not getting banned for trolling. The site needs the traffic right now. But rest assured if you continue to make sh!t up about fighters and it cannot be verified you will be....
    :banned

    You've been tagged as a troll for the next 3 months. Be careful what you post.
