    Hasn't done ****?

    I would put Winky over Oscar any day.

    And Ricky Hatton? That was a good win. One for the ages. But that don't mean everyone else ain't ****. First off, no one even tried to criticize Pac. Stop being over-sensitive.

    Not everyone is gonna get on their knees and worship Pac.

    Who's taking ything from pac?

    There was a simple question posed, and everyone got all up in arms.

    I personally think he's just that good. After seeing him fight Oscar, I knew there were very few at 147 that could **** with him. And absolutely no one at 140. Those are facts.

    But that doesn't take away from the fact that Ricky Haton and Oscar are two fighters that played right into the strengths of Pac.

    campbell and bradley were good selections... I ****ed up by saying many more because there really aren't many nore.... Maybe urango or something like that but nah

    I'm just saying playing both sides of the fence... That's it


    I mean you gotta admit this... Both campbell & bradley would have lasted more than 2 rounds last night... But then again you could say manny would beat both of them...

    The choice is truly yours

    You mentioned PW having to dehydrate to fight at middle. Those were your words.

    He only loses a few pounds for MW fights. That's what I'm talking about.

    People assume he walks around in his 170s, but it just ain;t true. Dude is naturally skinny as hell.

    Yeah... His legs are skinny as ****.... He isn't very big

    What I want to know for arguments sake is... Let's say manny fights floyd @ 147 & wins...

    Where does he go from there? Does he retire.. Cause I think 147 is his limit.. If he can slide past floyd somehow where does he go next?

    Cotto?
    Shane?
    That's an interesting question to me...

    Infact where does he go if he loses against floyd? 140? Back to light weight?

    Damn this is the nly bad thing about boxing....the in between time

    I can see where you are coming from. Pac's ability to take a shot (or more importantly an accumilation of shots over many rounds) above 130 is unproven at the minute but i think that is down to good match making (fighting Diaz at 135 instead of Campbell, Casa, juan Diaz or the better 135 pounders and getting DLH to fight at 147) and also Pac's improvement as an all around fighter.

    All things considered, going into the fight Hatton was probably Pac's hardest opponent over 130. Diaz just isn't on Hatton's level and whilst Oscar is a better fighter than Hatton, he was dead at the weight. So you have got to give Pac a lot of credit for beating Ricky the way he did.

    So whilst Pac should be given unbelieveable respect for moving up in weight, being able to carry up quite a bit of his power and improving his defense so as he doesn't get hit so much by these larger men the jury is still out on whether Pac can take a dig of someone over 130 pounds. Obviously if he keeps destroying his opponents with out hardly geting hit in return then that question doesn't really need to be answered. You can have a chin like Amir Khan but if you never get hit flush on it then it really doesn't matter.

    However if Pac is unable to take a good few digs of these bigger men i think someone like Cotto may be able to beat him. Cotto has the right style and is quick enough to cause Pac problems. If Pac's punch resistance to a natural 147 pounder is not that good then he could get beat.

    No one asked credentials.

    Read one post on here where either one of us said anything about Pac's credentials... Or talked ****.

    Dude asked a question. You get all sensitive because he didnt join you in the dick-sucking party.

    Fact is, Manny is a great fighter. No one in their right midn would argue that he is the best today, and one of the best ever. Who the ****, except some blind man would argue that?

    But dont let that cloud your judgment. PW is for real. And fools are gonna start finding out once some of these fighters grow some nuts!

    Cotto would get KO in Round 5 against Pac.

    Not a good fight for Miguel. Pac is too quick, and Cotto somehow thinks he can whip the world's ass with body shots. He would take too many flush shots on that semi-glass jaw of his.

    Not to be totally unreasonable, fair enough..Let us have 1 day "overrating pac" he was way more impressive than Marquez or Williams win, dont rain on the parade just yet, cause i certainly dont. Haters and attention seekers usually does that.

    Tomorrow gloves are off.fair enough?

    He has been caught flush by DLH and JMM. He has a good chin. But honestly....the kid is amazing. He definitely defies logic. He will be hard to beat....obviously.
