    Why not?

    He is exciting,....fights only the best opposition...always comes to fight in absolutely terrific shape and never runs from anyone or any challenge.

    How is Manny NOT the best thing in boxing for at least 5 years or more>??

    I like Miguel Cotto. He is a technical fighter and strong......much like his countryman counterpart,...Felix Trinidad.

    But he has major flaws just likt Tito did.

    Pac will rake Cotto over the coals much like Margarito did.......only his gloves will be tight.

    Any reason for your sentiment? Considering that he's regarded as "one of the best" things not "the best thing." I'm curious, what in your opinion is the best thing/s that happened in boxing?

    IMO, in this era, he has given boxing fans fights that will be talked for all generattions to come, long after we pass thru this life. That's what you call immortality.

    The difference is that Tito would face guys in their prime, not wait until they're shot (Cotto), Old (De La Hoya), or the worst of all possible champions (Diaz).

    Hatton underestimated the Pacman, and look what happened. This guy who beat dela Hoya and Hatton in a very convincing manner should never be underestimated.

    do you seriously believe this stuff. with conviction that pac is nothing but a cherrypicker who picked on old opponents, shot, etc.

    so were does hatton, jmm, mab and morales figure in your equation??

    WTF! Pac waited for dela Hoya to get old? Are you saying Pac should have fought Oscar when he was still a featherweight? Pac waited for Cotto to get shot? Same argument. This is most stupid post I ever read in 2009. :rofl:rofl:rofl

    this is coming from a Joyboy fan...

    see, the statement that *******s are the most retarted fans in the internet is a myth. floyd fans certainly takes this one. How can a superfeatherweight Pac take on Cotto who was a welterweight champ. Not even Floyd mayweather who was the 147 lineal champ at the time took on Cotto :yep

    floydettes i think take the cake. ****, when a floydette started a thread that pac and pbf are the same size, i knew it was beyond logical reasoning already.

    the overall intelligence quotient of this board seems to be dropping faster than a slut can take off her nickers.

    Let him retire...it will be good riddance and one less southpaw.......before he really gets his ass handed too him.......And ruins the image that his fans have made up for him, and think is reality.

    He ain't that good.
