    Pac may have avoided the high risk, low reward fights before but he never ever avoids the high risk, high reward fights. Ever. Which sadly, can't be said of PBF during his WW years.

    I mean, look at all his potential opponents now: Mosely, Cotto, PBF, JMM. A lot can be said if the least risk among his potential fights is from Juan ****in Manuel Marquez because that is a lot risk

    I may not like PBF's personality, but I don't hate him. So once he beats the real tough WWs, he will have all my respect. Until then, he's just a talented boxer who was amazing on the way to the top, but never really did anything significant once he got there.

    Pac on the other hand, in the eyes of many, just got to the top with the Hatton win (because it's here where he silenced all critics), and from all indications, he intends on raising hell at the top.

    Yup . . . cherry picking on guys in the higher weight class. :D

    That should elicit more respect for a 147 pounder who chose to retire instead of fighting dangerous opponents in his own weigh class. :lol:

    Same here Bruh . . . only if PBF would fight real 147 lbers then I wouldn't have to give him any negative comments.

    I love the sports not the fighters' butts. :yep

    Read my opening post. I was poking fun at such claims. Manny is a credit to himself and Boxing in general.

    The only reasons they were close was because of the kd's. JMM schooled him silly, ****ing silly. Manny was even smiling to hide the shame. Watch the fights again.

    manny did not choose his oponents. he just fought all oponents brought to him by his promoter. otherwise, show me the beef.

    WTF? If Shane wants to fight Pac, it should be at Pac's terms. Get in line.
