    I'm sure knocking out Freddy Hernandez instilled a terrible fear into Manny's heart.

    LMAO! The Pac haters are jokes.

    He is a legitimate World Champion in the Division Pac fights in, what's the problem? If he's such a shitbox, why would they not jump all over him? I agree he's raw, I agree he hasn't done a lot, but he's done enough to be a champion in that division, and I would like to see him get his chance. I think he's a far better opponent than JMM or SSM, if you disagree fine, just say so but you are making it something it's not. I could care less that Berto sparked Hernandez, I have been saying I'd like to see him fight Berto well before that, the point is that this fight did him no favors and they will avoid Berto, period.

    Ohhh... gotcha. You think Team Pac will avoid someone who's biggest win is Collazo, hasn't even been tested, and if being hand fed opponents. Yep, Pac is scared of him!!!:patsch

    There's no reason for them to avoid Berto. If they don't fight Berto, it will be because Berto has no name recognition whatsoever and manages to negotiate himself out of big fights because he thinks he's worth much more than he actually is.

    By your rationale, he should be targeting Jan Zaveck as well. He's not, and you know why - because he brings nothing to the table. At least Zaveck wouldn't try to require that they pay him millions of dollars to bring nothing to the table.

    Seriously, does anyone think that scrub would have lasted more than a couple rounds with Mosley? He was getting outboxed by Chop Chop until he landed a big shot out of nowhere.

    Legitimate World Champ? Yeah, just like Pac is a legitimate world champ at 154. :patsch

    I like Berto, but he hasn't done **** at 147. Seriously, Berto hasn't done jack **** at 147. He hasn't beaten any other top WW's. Unless you count Collazo and Quintana as something special.

    The ONLY thing Berto has is youth. Big ****in deal. Do something with it other than beat hand fed chumps....

    LOL
    JMM fans vs Berto fans vs Mosley fans (probably also the Berto fans)

    If Pac picks JMM, Berto/Mosley fans says he is fighting an old man has been and ducking.

    If he fights Berto, he ducking by fighting an unproven paper holder.

    If he fights Mosley .... (see JMM)



    When you are on top, everyone is looking for an excuse to shoot you down.

    It is not about whether pac vs marquez would do more ppv numbers than pac vs margarito , it is about how much more numbers pac vs marquez will do than as opposed to pac vs berto. You sir are not interequested in pac vs marquez, however you are in the minority.

    Obviously Pac vs. JMM would do better numbers.

    Mosley fight is already done I'm sure of it. Marquez coming off a brutal TKO against a live dog? You can forget about that fight until JMM is 40.

    The simple fact is that Arum will make the Fight that will sell the most PPVs...

    If they fail to perform in a PPV fight , it gives too much negotiating power to Floyds camp for a 60/40 or 55/45 split (if they ever even fight) .

    In my mind, Pac vs JMM or Pac vs Mosley are the only fights that will be big PPV attractions... probably JMM the most, problem is... pac needs to fight a slick african American remember? The slick african american that they want to fight has been in hiding though, so it's not as easy as some think.

    Ummmm...yeah, so like I guess I'll leave you to your thoughts, while you contemplate how you allowed yourself to look like a complete ******. Not only did you imply that all black people get welfare checks, but you played the I'm a borderline racist bully card on a white dude, who has probably accomplished/has more than you will in your entire life. That's unfortunate, but you can always come back with the..."Well **** you anyway retort"...****ing stupid ass *****. Perhaps you could save the screen shot of this, change the names, and make an "Owned" poster out of it.

    because he brings more of a chance then Mosley and Marquez at 147. I want Floyd or Martinez, but that doesn't look liek it's happening so give me berto
