    Joshua Clottey. Pacquiao is the only man who well and truly beat him.

    (and that might not have happened had Joshua tried)

    It pisses me off when people neglect to mention Charles amongst the best fighters this sport has EVER seen.

    This is true or had he not been in front of the quickest fighter he has ever faced throwing punches from angles he has never seen before. think it was more a case of it being hard to find a sparring partner that can emulate Manny's punches. He was just overwhelmed and natural instincts are to cover up when something is being sprayed at you.

    This is why I don't think Mosley even thinks he can really win. If he did he would have better sparring preparing for this fight.
     
  7. oscar de la hoya's record should be better. he won against trinidad and mosley cheated twice against him.

    i agree.his 'pretty boy' looks kinda detracted from the fact that he was a true warrior.his tepid interviews nowadays **** me off though,so **** him!
     
  10. he was a true warrior until pacquiao ripped his heart out and lifted his skirt up.

    Zab Judah, just imagine if Judah was focused 100% of the time.

    Definitely agree with Augustus, Soto, and Glen "TheRoadWarrior4" Johnson...

    Roy Jones Jr? Robin Reid? Rogers Mtagwa?
