    Here's a featherweight fighter that we're pitting him up against all these great fighters. I mean we have all these threads with Pacquiao vs Cotto, Mosley, Mayweather, prime Trinadad, prime Oscar, Duran, and so on. Manny Pacquiao is a true ATG in the making.

    I would have more respect if he would fight these fighters in there weightclass and not at some catch weight. to be an ATG you have to master all styles. Pac, as much as I like him has avoided slick boxers.

    I shouldn't say Pac has avoided them, Cuz I know he'll fight anyone. It's roach and Arum that won't put him up against that style of fighter. Joan Guzman, Nate Campbell, Mayweather ect...

    We have many great featherweights like Barerra, Morales, and Marquez. Other than Marquez, Pacquiao is the only one that's really trying to give us all these good fight with these big guys. On the catchweight part, did you see how big Oscar was compare to Pac.

    You can keep on spouting your delusional crap. I'll just sit back and enjoy watching the few remaining fights of an ATG. :smoke

    Too bad we never saw him beat a great fighter that was in his prime.

    ^ Barrera in 2003, dummy.

    Nate Campbell isn't a 'slick' boxer. I mean... just 'cause he's Black doesn't mean he's slick. :? Oh, and Guzrun will never ever get a chance against Pac because of his weight issues and they're worried about putting a runner in there on PPV.

    And even at this catchweights; he's still severely undersized. Give the guy a break for trying to make this an even fight.

    Example: let Pac take 5 prime figthers. after pac beats them...they turn into past primes overnight. thats how things workout. So he never fought prime fighters.
    il just ejoy the rest of his remaining fights cos we gotta wait for a loooooong time till we produce another Manny Pac. Viva Pilipinas!
