    Definately a "glass half empty" view of Pac's recent record.

    But you can't deny there is some truth to what he's saying here. :twisted:

    I don't disagree with the points here and was massively dissapointed by Hatton's performance but in spite of shotness/shitness the overally portfolio of recent fights is impressive and legacy building.

    I think think Floyd will KO him though, his infighting is atrociously underrated and when Pac can't hit him and Floyd proves powerful on the inside and moving backwards there is only 1 winner. Wouldn't surprise me to see another ring post issue...

    Shaves - journeyman
    Frazier - shot
    Frazier- arguably lost
    Frazier - lost
    Foreman - 1 dimensional, green, no stamina
    Norton - controversial
    Norton - lost
    Patterson - too small, shot
    Liston - took a dive, shot
    Liston - shot, took a dive


    bums r us :)

    Only an idiot would look at things that way.

    Hatton - people didn't think of him as shot after the Malignaggi fight, 5 months earlier. A lot of people picked him to be too strong for Pacquiao at his natural weight. Pacuiao's first ever fight at that weight.

    Oscar - pretty much what you said, but the manner of pacquiao's victory was impressive nonetheless. Pacquiaos first ever fight at that weight.

    Diaz - not elite by any means, but a solid hard working champion who was the bigger man on fight night. Pacquiao's first ever fight at that weight.

    JMM - one of the top P4P boxers in the world, fought to a very close UD which different people had going either way.

    MAB - past his best but still a tough opponent

    I think it's hard to look at them victories pessimistically, can you name anyone with a better 'last 5 fight resume'?

    Thanks for indicating it was a "Pessimistic view". Which means anyone or any boxer could be view under this kind of "Pessimistic" Scope with the same negitive outcome.

    Say JMM
    Diaz- A bum
    Casa- Over the hill
    PAC- Lost
