    So Manny was no longer prime after Singsurat and Torrecompo Knocked him out. Good story.

    Who in the **** made you the PRIME GOD?

    Cotto and Margo didn't look any different. Cotto was always a good boxer puncher with fair defense and a suspect chin. Margo was always a physically strong volume puncher, slow but durable.

    Nothing changed.

    Clottey didn't retire he moved up to 154lb at the time.

    And because Hatton chose to stop fighting how does that mean he wasn't prime?

    Hatton lost the desire to work hard and toil since he had already been to the MOUNTAIN TOP. That is what happened to Hatton. He had no desire to try to fight his way back to the top. He had two fights against the biggest stars in boxing and lost both and felt there was nowhere else to go.

    So STOP THE REVISIONIST HISTORY ALREADY!

    That would mean Pacquiao has lost his prime for 3 decades now.

    Hatton and Cotto are great wins, the others since not so much but Pac man keeps on winning against bigger guys and I've got to give him credit for that.

    Cotto was a great win. Cotto isn't mentally the same fighter anymore though. Marg took something from Cotto that night. Before that Marg fight you would give Cotto a good shot against an A fighter. Hatton was never the same again after his KO loss to Floyd. Hatton would tell you this himself. He had no punch resistance and his trainer wanted him to retire. Marg was an ok win. The question I have is who was Marg at that time? He wasn't ranked at all. Why should that be a great win? Josh Clottey? No explanation needed. In a way I would agree. Marquez imo was closest to his prime. Not because he gave Manny the most problems either. Look where Marquez is at right now compared to the rest. He is still winning and is a P4P fighter.

    the fight out of all of these fights that pac was under dog for with the bookies was
    the oscar fight and if they would have known what roach knew that he was
    as weight drained and dehydrated that he could be he would have been fave for that aswel
    well done to manny but people have to relise that these wins dont mean as much as they could have. i.e if he beat margo when shane did, or beat oscar when floyd did or beat hatton when floyd did or beat cotto when margo did. oscar was washed up when floyd fought him but people gave manny credit for beating him, hatton was finished after floyd, cotto hasnt been the same since margo everyone see's this apart from pacs loyal fans its not slagging him off its facts.

    and now shane mosley why fight shane it cant be legacy or any of that floyd has just shown his not what he was and mora has just shown that but now pac will beat him up and all we will hear is how great he is. his fought margo at 154 so why not take on someone decent their???? its because margo is so slow he can jus hit him and not worry to much about being hit why not call out paul williams???? his been ko'd but still fresh as in can come back shane is way past it.

    So which university did you take your psychology degree from? Or did Cotto tell you this?

    UNLV actually :lol:. But how could you think Cotto is the same fighter mentally? So Tyson needs a degree to say Cotto isn't the same fighter anymore? How about Freddie Roach?

    wtf is going on.

    Amir Khan = out of prime
    David Haye = out of prime
    Carl Froch = out of prime
    wladimir Klitschko = out of prime
    Vitali Klitschko = out of prime (actually probably is now)
    Ortiz = out of prime
    **** IT, EVERYONE WITH A LOSS = OUT OF PRIME

    JUST BECAUSE YOU LOSE, DOESNT MEAN YOU ARE "OUT OF PRIME"
    ****in ell.
