    Exactly. Anyone who beats a top fighter, whilst fighting on the backfoot, gets hailed as a great boxer. There is a massive amount of people who don't see any skill in offensive boxing. If they can't see that, they can't be expected to see the talent in being a great slugger or brawler either. If it's not slick, some people can't see any skill to it.

    It's why people like Dirrell constantly get overrated. He's shown very little actual skill to me yet because he's happy to dance and throw flash combinations, he gets highly rated. Same for Judah too.

    That isn't true. You are just biased.

    There is a crowd appeal to being a great slugger or brawler. Fact is that they don't reign long. Many are so one dimensional and eat so much damage getting ranked that they can only hold the title for a brief moment. Winning a title and losing it in the next defense is that "great boxing"?

    Boxing is a sport not a "honor quest". Dirrel will WIN a title and keep it. Then your comments about Judah are just ignorant as he was never a "boxer". He was a boxer-puncher.

    Jack always with the nonsense? Always?:patsch

    Don't put Mayweather and Pac in the same conversation until Pac passes a drug test, doesn't fight a Top Rank fighters, and performs like he has been lately. Until then everything he does has an asterisk. :nono:deal

    Since there's only been ASSERTIONS, bhs -- NO PROOF -- that Pac's done anything illegal, why couldn't Money's past wins be questioned? All he could do is deny it, like Manny.

    dirrel might win a title and keep it but his skills are overrated, his footwork is not great and he runs instead f boxing.

    now andre ward is a real skilled boxer who has mastered it all and doesn't rely on his fast reflexes etc.

    Question away. He tests and the fights turn out exactly the same.

    The issue isn't if Manny used PED's his whole career. No honest person would say he did. Manny became the man AFTER looking faded. It is now more likely he is doing the impossible than PEDs in today's atmosphere? Come on!

    Take the tests. Show the world. Dominate like you should. Right?

    No PED's don't make you a better anything man. I mean all these guys taking them are taking them to be cool. Not because they improve sports performance. You know PEDs are kind of like green tea diets. :roll:

    You think PED's turn you into Mr. Olympia? You do know that Tour de France cyclists take PED's too right? You know nothing about PEDs.

    FMJ is NOT a GBP fighter. He co-promotes with them. If that is your BS argument then Pac is also a GBP fighter. Why don't you check their listings.

    What planet do you *******s live on? That's right... Pacanus.

    Right about the crowd-appeal statement. However, how I understand Jack's statement is that people tend to disregard offensive skills as "skillful" in boxing.

    No. He just needs to do them before he fights ANYONE.

    Though I might be caught stretching the truth, Pac isn't a b*. I would though feel 100% positive he is cheating though if:

    -- He fights Margarito in November (Marg turned down a fight with a Martinez who is white hot right now! :think)

    -- There is no drug testing in Pac's next fight, especially if it is Marg!

    i know plenty about PEDS

    and yes PEDS do turn you into mr olympia, is anabolic steroid not a PED?

    can a cyclist become champion of the world then?


    FMJ is a GBP fighter, just like hatton with his hatton promotions or marquez with his marquez promotions, they all work under GBP

    and i dont know why your becoming such a ***** calling me names, i aint even a pacfan

    did i hurt your feelings that bad?
