    plus he's a politician too

    I imagine him saying

    "estamos peor, pero estamos mejor. Porque antes estábamos bien, pero era mentira. No como ahora, que estamos mal, pero es verdad" :roto2nuse:

    Dear people from the philipines:
    "we are in a worse situation, but we are in a better situation. Because before, we were well, but it was a lie. Not like now. Now, we are screwed, but it is true."

    It's pathetic isn't it.. We got to see 2 of the greatest fighters of all time n instead of appreciating you just get two sets of ****s saying... "But... but.... TeH sTErOiDZ"

    It's sad as ****

    The thing is when fighter's get to many catch weight fights, gift decisions and beat a lot of over the hill opponents they get criticized...

    Agreed. Clenelo is the Catchweight King, got multiple gifts, fought old/shot fighters, AND he's a confirmed PED user.

    I have criticisms I can and do throw at alot of fighters... But I won't sit down and slag off all there achievements.. Saying people are steroid cheats with no positive tests etc

    But soon as a fighters name is mentioned and the first comments is about them being a steroid user or a cheat I just think oh **** off mate lol

    I can't believe there's actually people on this earth who genuinely believe Pacquiao was juiced to the gills back when he was a starving kid in the Philippines.

    Still a world champion 22 years after winning his first world title. Allow that basin into your abode.

    And he should be by rights ranked #1 at 147 because his resume urinates all over the resumes of all the other champs at that weight and that #1 spot was cemented after he beat Mr Keith "One Time" Thurman because his resume urinates all over the resumes of all the other champs too.

    And even more impressive. Manny is not only a senior citizen beating up on much younger fighters who are in the prime, he's giving away huge physical advantages in terms of weight and reach to virtually everyone he faces at 147, whereas when it comes to the other champs that's actually a very rare occurrence. They're usually the bigger man in there whereas Manny is usually always the smaller man.

    Respect is earned not given and when respect is earned respect is due and when respect is due it must be given. Respect.
