Lets review his last few fights. An aged weight drain Oscar. A shot Hatton and now a somewhat shot Cotto. He did really good against JMM but lets face facts...He has a ton of trouble with BOXERS. It was the same two weight classes ago and its the same now. Even in the Cotto fight he got slapped with Jabs all night. Freddie with have to give him a new dimension of head movement which will inevitably leave him open for a left hook. His body is steel, but his forehead isnt. He is on the most like well respected and top guys in the sport, but he still cant deal with a fighter who can fight off the back foot like Floyd or Shane for that matter. Difference is Shane will go to war to win the fight. Floyd already knows you don't have to and as boring as it is, it still gets the W. I love the idea of the fight but lets be honest. If Floyd beats Manny we will all find a reason to discredit it. (he's a 106lb., he's smaller than floyd, all kinds of stuff).
No one can discredit someone beating Pac. Not the way you're discrediting him (shot this, somewhat shot that).
exactly... look at how many different styles he has fought and pretty much everyone said the same thing. He's too fast and he punches from different angles where you can't see the punch coming.
So Morales, Barrera, Marquez, Cotto werent boxers? Why dont we change this thread to "You are an assgaping ******"
I knew it was coming sooner or later..it's funny that after pac wins all of a sudden his opponent is shot or past prime bla bla bla. :nut
ellerbe??? floyd needs some rubbing. go home. dont forget to take the shower though... i want some muscles baby. LOL
Your full of ****, Hatton and Cotto wern't shot, they are in their physical prime.. So Barrera, Morales, and Marquez, arn't boxers either:nut.. Man we have some stupid here in this site...
I was think about that today. Basically Cotto tried to do what Hatton could not and that is impose his will, put some muscle on to him. The fact is Pac is too fast for a simple minded plan like that. However Floyd on the otherhand is a thinker(boring) but it gets the job done. Im gonna reserve my judgement for now though cause Pac has proved me wrong plenty of times lol.
I agree man saying Cotto was shot after he beat Clottey is BS but I gotta say that Morales was a boxer but if you saw his fights he never sticked to the game plan always gave the crowd their moneys worth(Morales/Pac 1)
