    QFT. I said exactly the same thing. Collazo made him look foolish.

    i remembered my younger bro's cheap phone's application game where they only have 4 boxers, pac, barrera, (don't know the 3rd one, morales maybe) and oscar delahoya. i was laughing my ass off when i saw him playing pac versus oscar.

    Styles make fights. Whether a match is competitive or not depends on numerous circumstances such as weight, time, age, win streak, etc., regardless of what the fighters' names are. Prior to the fights with DLH and Hatton, I KNEW Pac would win with a speed advantage alone. Even though Cotto's style played right into Pac's hands, I'll give Manny full credit for an impressive win just because I'm gracious enough. Pac needs to fight and defeat a slick boxer like Floyd or Bradley to convince me he is the unstoppable force that everyone makes him out to be. Until then I give him an A- as opposed to an A+++++

    its hard to think now, i remember after his fight with jmm everyone said he was 1 dimensional and only had a left hand and no one even picked pac to beat morales at the time who was 1 division higher at 130

    Do roids make a left-hand reliant fighter learn to use his right hand? Do roids make a one-two reliant fighter learn how to throw a variety of different punches? Do roids make a fighter who moved in straight lines develop his footwork to the extent that it drastically improves both his defence and offence?
