I'm glad that some people are finally calling out bull**** on Manny's part. This is a very interesting article. http://www.fighthype.com/pages/content8924.html The guy is a asian and accuses Manny and Top Rank of "cherrypicking" and making a mockery of the sport which is the truth.
What a fantastic read! I never realized that boxing was a business, and that successful fighters always had detractors. Brilliant stuff, GOW7. Glad you're seeking this **** out and bringing it to our attention. Useless moron.
Manny cherry picked Oscar Cotto Hatton Clottey Margarito. Wow. If those are his cherries he must be the damn GOAT.
Looks like I'm not the only useless moron pal. And please stop acting like youre not a clown LukeO. Youre one of the biggest.
I act like i'm not a clown? Do I hide my over sized clown shoes when my friends come to visit or something?
It does in a way. His eyes arent as squinty like alot here on ESB but more wide open.:heyDavid Diaz,Oscar,war torn face imploded Cotto,Hatton,Clottey(who's a bum), and Margarito were all low hanging fruit at the time Manny fought them. Sure his fights are entertaining and theres alot of hype surrounding Pacquiao but with Shane next it's clear as day Bob only puts Manny against fighters he knows Manny will beat. People need to stop blind dickriding this dude because like I said,Shane is next which is sad. Even though Manny would win I would rather see him fight Berto over Shane or Marquez.
You cant break down a fight for **** and I dont know about the shoes but makeup and a big red nose yes.:smoke
Oh ****, he'a Asian!! Funny how you think that's relevant... Guess all the African American fightes accusing Floyd of being a coward carries more water then those of other ethnicity to you? atsch
I have to agree margarito style is perfect for pacquiao. But to come from 122 pounds and beat him with ease is pretty impressive. Never mind that he came from 105, and cleard most in his division at 147.
Oki lets give a honest answer here, before the david diaz bout there were questions about pac carrying the power to 135, so it was a decent win, despite it being over a paperchamp that was not all that great. After that Oscar was critisized badly for cherrypicking little pac and not fighting margarito, the fight going like it went made pac a superstar and brought a lot of hatred and love. I think this is a very underrated win nowadays because it was a huge schock and its not fair to destroy the guy for it. After that hatton 140, oki we all assumed pac was over his head at welter but at 140 he could do some damage, sure hatton lost to floyd at welter but at 140 he was a good undefeated boxer even ricky himself believed that, him giving hatton one of the most brutal ko's in the decade was epic, no questions there. after that he wanted to move up to 147 again, now it gets interesting, mosley was a option he just ko'd margarito and it was agreat win for him, roach and all were thinking mosley was to big of a risk to be the first serious strong guy after oscar at 147, so bob arum decided to amke a inhouse fight with cotto who just came of a 12 round brutal fight with clottey, that way if either won he could make more money and have the next star, pac destroys cotto, very good win there, regardless of the margarito ko it is still impressive. After that people started, mayweather march 13 make it happen:| all the bull**** that followed meant no fight! clottey was brought in as a replacement, kind of annoying because we wanted floyd but ow well clottey is a welter he will do as a stay busy fight, easy win. Then again mayweather in november! Floyd loses his urge and goes in hiding, this is great fro bob who decided to milk manny as long as possible and matches him with marg to get the guy back in the picture, bull**** fight because maragrito did not deserve a shot and it was for a belt at a catchweight, sure manny looked great but the fight was not great for his reputation. Now we are going to get mosley, another bull**** boba rum fight to make money, he just lets the floyd thing go dont chase it just mosley, a slap in all of boxingfans faces, and im notgoing to justify it because its not fair. Marquez should have the fight at 140 or atleast a 147 beltholder in berto. As for now i only say margarito fight was bull****, but regardless of that you cant deny the guys legacy and accomplishments.
I can do the same for Manny. David Diaz=punching bag Oscar=weight drained skeleton Hatton=Turn buckled,punch drunk against Lazcano.Great win over Maliggnaggi thoughatsch Cotto=War torn damaged goods frontrunner. Never the same after getting mauled with bricks Clottey=Just who the **** is this guy and what has he done?Zab and Corrales. Yeah he's a live dog who gives fights away always. Margarito="I saw your last 2 fights".Punching bag. 411 shots landed on his face. Was destroyed by Shane prior. Shane Mosley="I saw your last 2 fights."-Roach. See pal it's quite easy.
