    This isn't praise, it's a 'veiled' put down to make PAC fighting welters like Mosely at 147 a fair deal.

    He's saying that Pac isn't any smaller than the big welters so why is he asking them to meet at a catchweight between 147 and 140.

    Does Naazim Richardson know that Cotto came into his last fight at 146. I'm sure he does, so what is 1 pound going to do. Nothing. Do your research into sports science. 1 pound is NOTHING.

    Two words: reading comprehension.

    Don't get your panties in a bunch every time you feel somene has any criticism of Pac or an opionion differnent than yours in regards to Pac.

    Richardson was not comparing Pavlik to Pac. He was jokingly paraphrashing someone else's comments indicating that Arum may not want to let any of his fighters against a Richardson trained boxer. The examples used were Bernard's dismantling of Pavlik and Mosley's dismantling of Maragarito.

    He was analogizing when he mentions the Tito, Roy and Hopkins situation with the Cotto, Pac, Mosley, PBF situation. He was not comparing boxing prowess or ability.

    So next time you see any article related to Pac take a deep breath and take your time reading it.

    I don't see where you saw that I got flustered, but I didn't.

    And what I said is spot on. He's making comparisons between Hopkins and Pavlik, and Hopkins and Tito, and Mosley and Pacquiao. Different fighters, different game. Naz knows this, but in this interview he is just talking bull**** to try to make Mosley look good.

    I do agree that Pac should have left 130 after the last Morales fight. Anyone could see he was hurting himself cutting so much weight.

    I feel he could still easily make 135. He is smaller than probably any man he faces for the rest of his career. Unless the Marquez fight comes to light.

    I think the only underestimating people are doing is how much better Pac looks without cutting weight. He is a true phenom who can jump weight and get better.

    For me Pac can beat anyone 147 and down. Of course he has a decent chance to lose against a couple of guys, but he's great enough to compete with the best at any of those weights.

    You misinterpretation of the article and your need to say that Pac is better than Tito and Hopkins and your tone is what made me believe that you were flustered by the article. Oh yeah and the fact that your started your thread with "Richardson is talking a lot of bull****."

    Richardson was speaking figuratively when he compared multiple fighters gunning after a popular fighters because they thought that they could beat him and didn't want to lose the notoriety that a victory over that fighter would get them.

    The notoriety, money and accolades would only be diminished if someone else were to beat him first. In other words there were the the Tito Trinidad sweepsteaks and now there are the Pac sweepsteaks. Multiple fighters want to get there first to claim the prize.

    Don't take things so literal.

    of course what he says makes sense. everybody wants a piece of pacquiao. and the guy is not unbeatable. as he moves up, the chances of him losing increase when you're talking about guys like mosley, mayweather cotto, etc. so they all want to be the guy who defeats pacquiao and stop his streak. not to mention the payday they'll recieve.

    Thank you sir. I think it's just common sense, but I think Philla is reading it to much as a fan, which we all are, but we need to try and put things into perspective and not try to read too much into things some times.

    Why the hell is Nazeem Richardson nearly always referred to as brother Nazeem Richarson?
