    JMM has a win over ATG Barrera. And the greatest win of the modern era (KTFO6).

    Joe probably shared cocaine with some of those journalists at some point.

    Manny was older, and he had 3 other chances to do it and Manny beat him. He lost to Bradley around the same time. Barrera is good I admit, but he was older then. JMM fought Barrera a little late. 2007..

    Joe calzaghes best win is Mikel Kessler. I don’t see how he’s even in that convo. He’s undefeated and was dominant so he’s obviously great, one of the greatest British fighters ever but he’s somewhere in the top 15 for the last 20 years, not top 3.

    Manny has those amazing genetics; fast twitch muscles, quick metabolism and high stamina (and output).

    The only thing that will let him down is his legs. If he cannot get in and out of range, his opponents would be able to time him very well.

    His hand speed is still blazing though and that is a problem for bigger buys who are more powerful such as Thurman, Garcia, Porter etc. Pacquaio can throw 2-3-4 punch combinations and reset himself before others have a chance to react.

    Bradley wasn't ever elite, he simply doesn't have the talent level to ever be an elite fighter. He's a solid B+ opponent while CA is a weaker B-/C+ opponent

    Bradley's one of those guys you don't want to fight if you don't have to.

    Above average boxing skills and speed. OUTBOXED a professor of boxing in Marquez who was also juiced to the gills.

    Tenacious as a bulldog (which is why he tends to go to war).

    Bradley was definitely P4P material and elite. His only losses have been to a certified ATG.

    So what if Hatton won the IBO title, I wasn`t defending every British fighter, who did Hatton beat to win the IBO title, a title is only as good as the fighter you beat for it, not all world champs are at the same level.

    Steroids didn’t make Manny a great fighter - that’s all natural. The steroids allowed Manny to go up in weight and keep his speed and power.
    To put it this way - if Manny is a natural 130lber and Cotto, Margarito, Clottey and Hatton were also natural 130lb guys the fight results would’ve been the same.
