    He is really good at cherry picking oponents.
    He stayed away from real big challenges such as
    fighting Pac.

    :adminhahahahahaaha lil floyd was scared of margarito and pac, you out of your mind if you think he would ever have faced a monster as tall and big of a puncher like tommy :lol: hagler was a middleweight and floyd doesnt fight middleweights. roger would say: you know sh%$&/t about boxing.

    the last 2 eras were perfect for floyd had lil balsl faced gzys like tszyu, casamayor, margarito, pacquiao, canelo or 154 catchweight version of martinez.

    I'm seriously confused. So you three, and the rest of the pac**** brigade, seriously believe manny pacquiao was ever a PFP fighter? Let's review.

    All of his fights at 135 and below are entertaining and impressive. However, every fight above 135 (except for Bradley) are just cherry-picks. There's nothing impressive about beating Oscar De La Hoya after he has his orbital bone broken by a feather fisted Steve Forbes. Even more was the fact that manny outweighed DLH on fight night - that's telling enough. Shane Mosley was coming off consecutive losses/poor performances. Cotto was battered by Margs and then given a gift decision versus Clottey. Speaking of Clottey, he fought a very interesting fight. He walked around with his guard up for 36 minutes... manny then fights Margarito for a 154 lb title... at 150 lbs? This happens after Mosley batters Margs and exposes him as a cheat. Margs goes on to defeat a journeyman in a decision win (where'd all that power go?) then gets beaten badly versus manny, as could've been expected. Hatton gets KO'd by Floyd and then gets nearly KO'd in practically every fight after Floyd. He was as washed up as any fighter in the past 10 years by the time he and manny fought.

    JMM defeated manny at 39 and then put the saga to rest at 40. JMM is truly a warrior. Even after manny and his camp refused JMM's OSDT request, he still accepted the fight and went on to beat manny in a good fight (#3) and then KTFO manny later (in #4).

    I give manny props for the Bradley win. It was legit :thumbsup

    There's nothing manny has done to warrant much praise in the past five years aside from beating over-the-hill/expired fighters with marquee names at catch-weights/advantageous weights using rehydration clauses and

    avoiding taking OSDT all the while. Because, you know, there's a very high likelihood manny was/is indeed juicing after all.

    This post oughta put you kids to sleep the way JMM did your hero. Good night :bbb

    credit for fighting coralles and odlh, but I never heard michael jordan say: I dont wanna face shaq, malone or robinson.

    you get my point :smoke marga was a beast in his prime and lets face it, floyd was shacking when marga confronted him. not discredting his great wins over great boxer like coralles, but yet, floyd ducked a lot of top boxers.

    The alleged Margarito "duck" has long been dissolved. If you're truly interested on the topic you can search for it in these boards. Bob Arum himself has stated that Floyd never ducked Margarito.

    When you're a Floyd hater, truth becomes irrelevant and rumors/conspiracies become your greatest ally.

    Yeah, we know this by citing his ATG wins over Ortiz, Judah, Mosley and the great Baldomir. Roberto and Tommy better watch out!

    And let's not forget a 147 lb version of Hatton. Sweet Jesus, it just keeps getting worse for Roberto and Tommy. No way they can match this.
