    This is entertaining. Can you dig up more threads like these?



    Before they didnt think that he could beat David Diaz.

    Now it is seen as his cherrypick at lightweight.

    When he was fighting Barerra for the first time and you asked me do I think he beats Hatton in 2 brutally and stops Cotto and DLH at 147. I probably would of laughed at you and bashed you at the same time for being suck a douche.

    Now I can see Pac KO's Mayweather in 2 rounds

    The good thing is people on ESB are the only ones complaining.

    Out in the real world, they're comparing him to Hank Armstrong, THANK GOD

    I've been following Pac's career since the mid 1990's, and when he lost by KO in Thailand, (WBC 112 flyweight defense) and then heard that he was gonna jump straight to 122 lbs, I thought that his world title hunting days would be over.

    I still thought he would be a super entertaining, crowd pleasing fighter, but jumping straight from flyweight to junior featherweight would be too much for anybody, and he would probably become one of those local crowd favorites that people love to watch and root for and will be a cult favorite/local legend, but will probably never reach the top 10 world rankings again.

    He's one of a kind.

    Yeah by 2010. He will have stopped cotto, hatton and dlh. And be the best in the sport. Having won at welterweight.

    You were far from the only one. Needless to say, I'm a believer now and I don't take my predictions near as seriously.:lol:

    Off topic, but I see you're sporting that Manning avatar. I was at that Colts-Patriots game Sunday night and some "fans" actually thought it'd be a good idea to start leaving in the beginning of the 4th quarter once we were down by 17. Idiots. :rofl

    You were there???? I am so jealous, that was an instant classic.... I was even doubting the Colts there for a bit but they prove me wrong every time....

    I love how we won because Manning was in Belichick's head, a noggin that is obviously hard to crack.:lol::happy
