    Cool story. It just needs some indentation and a paragraph or two.

    So, the written-grammatical police show up. You happen to be correct about the form. Now just reach over your shoulder and pat yourself on the back.

    You captured it. Never has "Exhibit A" been so easy to point out. lol. These fans don't even want anyone to have an opinion that does not line up with theirs. "Either you think Manny is the Greatest, or eat **** and die." I will do neither.

    Having said all that, Mayweather has not showed willing to fight any of those guys, infact decided to retire when the division was at its best.

    You have to prove it in the ring irrespective of perceived style advantages, Manny does that, Floyd, now so much. This is precisely why Pac has a better resume than Floyd.

    Fact over fiction son:deal

    you don't understand that boxers can cut weight. sad.

    What was Pac's weight on fight night when he fought Marquez in March 2008?

    What was Pac's weight on fight night when he fought Margarito last saturday?

    :good I feel you man!

    First let me say that I'm not one of these haters on here...I appreciate Manny's love for the sport...He put on a wonder fight for us fans this past weekend. I'm not falling for the hype though...Once he fights a decent boxer that can counter and not take block punches with his face then I would be on board, but until then, I'm gonna call it like I see...I think a sharp counter puncher with a decent chin will give Manny trouble.

    Manny is a DAMN GOOD fighter IMO but I think he'll have trouble with a solid boxer with a good jab! Thats just me though!

    Keep on doing your thang my man!:good

    Thanks, Rudyard. I'm with you in that I like Manny as a personality and a fighter - he brings a great competitive spirit to the game and he is respectable dude. However, unlike some I can separate what I think of his personality from what I see happening in the ring. Everyone he has fought recently has been made to order for the Manny phenomenon. To your point, a counter-puncher with head-movement and good defense will make him look totally different. Mayweather comes to mind. lol.

    Would you go as far to calling Pacquiao a cherry picker?

    I mean, one could probably call him that if they wanted, but I think Manny would fight whomever Arum and company put in front of him. I prefer to say that he is being expertly handled. lol.

    who said anything about Manny cutting weight? Man are you spaced-out...because you are not just making sense in your comments. I was speaking to the rapid-rise through the weight classes, thats all. Does it prove he juiced? No. Does it seem suspicious? Yes, IMO.

    Pac doest have to drain himself anymore he weighed 145 in the ring against Marquez II and weighed 148 against Margo. What type of roids makes you gain only 3 pounds?

    He doesnt even look as cut as he was in the lower weights.

    he didnt jump all these weights he just fighting closer to his walk around weight.

    Facts over fiction, Dad? Well the fact is that Manny has been in the ring against fighters made-to-order for him and under the same promotional banner. Did he win? thats a fact! Is it convincing to me of his greatness? Not, hardly.

    Grat article bro, nice read.

    Now gtfo. As soon as the Floyd fight won't happen you can't say anything bad bout Manny, he is like one of the few most entertaining sportsmen alive.
