    Because JUDGES in boxing today, DO NOT do their jobs well at all. If I were as poor at my work as Boxing judges I would be fired on the spot.:twisted:

    Pac didnt fight the best...the money came when he fought DLH...If we wanted to fight the "best" Welter he would have fought Mosley... Money doesnt follow people...people lure in money. Thats a common misconception...

    I love how they keep bringing up the SD, when Max Kellerman said the night of the fight the judge should never be allowed to judge again after giving the fight to Oscar.

    Kellerman was right & exact .... Judges get moved by the audience and that's BS!!!

    No Pro. Boxing judge should be swayed by anything but what happens in the ring. And anyone with at lease a 20/80 eye could clearly see that Floyd outboxed the **** out of DLH.

    Ok. Roach exagerated a little bit to cause an impression. Floyd is not easy fight for anybody and he is not lazy. But Roach has a point. When you compare styles and physiques Floyd would be the easiest fight (and the best payday). Easier, because even if Floyds win, he won't punish Pacquiao the way Shane or Miguel could.

    Regarding the weight, Floyd can't say ****. He is the one who is fighting JMM. Marquez is a natural 130 pounder. He only has two fights at 135lbs. Marquez accepted that fight because its a huge payday before retiring, But MAnny doesn't really need Floyd to make money.

    He was also bigger stronger and had a better jab than Pac ever had.:deal Without a jab you're not beating PBF.

    Pac can go toe to toe with Cotto because he can beat him to the punch and has the power to hurt him as well. If he tries to go toe to toe with Mosley he will be stopped his best bet is to box him with movement.

    Max Kellerman was simply stating the obvious. Even Lampley and That Old Drunk were pretty certain Floyd had won the fight.

    All you have to do is watch the last 4 rounds. If you believe DLH was still in the fight I got some bridges in Wyoming to sell you.

    Man I have to laugh at all the Pac nuthuggers. The guy has YET to even take a punch at 140-147. We don't know how his Chin will hold up. I will laugh if he fights Mayweather and gets KOed just like Hatton did.

    The bottom line is we don't know a damn thing about Manny's Chin in the higher weight classes. We know Floyd's is fine.

    And PBF's straight right hand that he can lead or counter with shits all over JMM's who had him stumbling all over the ring with. I won't even go into his sneaky left hook or jab to the body which will cause him problems as well.:yep

    Also one thing you forget to mention is the reach disadvantage that he will have to deal with. Oscar had much longer arms and a stiff jab Pac has short arms which will lead to his doom in this fight.

    And Pac's right hook that he can lead or counter with shits all over Judah's who knocked Floyd down with it. I won't even go with his uppercuts or his overhand left that can knock people out cold.

    Only thing you forgot to mention is the footwork that he will have to deal with. JMM throws his punches in combinations and can throw every punch in the book with pinpoint precision Floyd won't be able to time Pac like JMM did and will get beat down. :hey

    I saw Pac in your post, but I'm assuming you were referring to Floyd. :deal
