    It's mind-blowing how people forget this...

    Actually, they know. They're just haters.

    This is the norm regarding the facts when it relates to Pacquiao.

    :lol: Oscar had an iron chin and made Trinidad look foolish. We're talking Olympic levels here. An old fat Oscar put Floyd to task more than Pac could.

    Styles make fights. If he doesnt get caught by the left hook I see Pac from the cotto fight schooling both Oscar and Tito.
    Arguably controversial perhaps for a former flyweight but its what it is.
    And I consider Oscar and Tito very good hof boxers.

    Whitaker would make Pac look silly, we all know this. And Oscar clearly beat him. Imagine Oscar vs Hatton or Cotto? :lol: Massacre part 4

    Not clearly, was a clear tossup fight.
    But by that logic, Sturm made Oscar look Silly, Castillejo stopped him, was beaten by Vargas who got beaten by Oscar who therefore would make Sturm look silly... wait whut?

    That's basically how I see it...I didn't think Pacquiao would beat cotto at the time but I wouldn't have been suprised he did..... But if you'd told me back then that a skinny little Filipino kid was gonna come out of nowhere at short notice and absolutely kick the crap out of Marco Antonio Barrera..I'd have thought they were drunk off their ass

    Same. Cotto is Cotto. A very good fighter. But man, that was Marco Antonio Barrera. I wonder how many people have seen prime Barrera? I've watched his fights at his peak and he was flat out toying with top level fighters. I just cant believe a nobody skinny Filipino kid did that to him.

    Can you read? None of those were 147. Oscar would box Mann'ys ears off.

    Marquez did and Oscar would eff Marquez up.
