    With Pacquio it's usually Mayweather fans with RJJ it's the same nationalistic posters ..But it al comes down to their inferiroty complex they just wish they had a fighter that was a phenom like Roy ..They never will have one so they try to tear him down ..But the more they disrespect them the more they are appreciated through time ..

    I have to admit I mention Pacquiao's KTFO6 loss to Marquez a lot, but only to emphasise that he was psychologically shot vs Mayweather. He was already known to have psychologically lost that killer instinct before that fight, and the he had no more love for the sport and it was showing in his performances from 2011 onwards increasingly not just from a physical standpoint, but a mental standpoint.

    With that said, he's 18th all time for me in terms of greatness.

    As for Roy Jones, his KTFO loss vs Tarver means absolutely nothing. Jones shed 25lbs of muscle in such a short period of time for the Tarver fight, which he physically didn't recover from. It's also forgotten that he was like 34 years old when he took that Tarver fight. RJJ and his style ages the quickest as he relied on athleticism and reflexes.

    Prime RJJ is TBE, IMO.

    I don't have a problem with people discussing and ****yzing KTFO losses. This is a boxing forum....

    I just think it's stupid to ignore context and/or just bringing it up for the sole purpose of trashing Pacquiao and Jones.

    The vast majority of the Jones and Pacquiao KTFO threads are created for the sole purpose of going "Hey look at this, they suck". And if they aren't created for that purpose by the OP it inevitably turns into a bashing thread by other stupid posters.

    Pacquiao cannot control what his fans say or think. And his fans are justified in saying he's great because he was.

    So in your warped mind you actually think Pacquiao is deserving of disrespect.

    Isn't it funny that the past two Fighter of the Decade winners receive the most hate on this forum?
