Pacquiao and the black fighter dilema

So what the hell are they?

Aliens?

 

I wouldn't categorize Campbell as a slick fighter.

Pac vs Campbell would've been a good fight because Campbell had 3 titles. Instead when Pac beat JMM Arum put Pacquiao in a 135lb tuneup/title fight against one of his fighters, and then Pac went straight for Arum 3 divisions up.

That situation has nothing to do with either skin colour or style, but everything to do with in-house promotion and then the mega-fight with Oscar..

 

Did they duck Guzman, I think so, but he's not African American. They wanted no part of him. Campbell, I don't think so, DLH and Hatton was already being talked about then. Those guys are better pocket and legacy wise. Campbell even gave Pacquiao kudos because he was doing his "thang thang" and trying to get paid. Campbell isn't really a slick fighter. At this point, who cares, Pacquiao is about to fight the best slick fighter of this generation.







Plus he's African American.

 

Cause hes not just ask Robbie Peden?


And other than beating the overrated Diaz what the hell has Campbell done to be considered a threat to Pac or be deserving of a fight with Pac.

 

I think the word "black" is totally unnessecary though. Pacquiao hasn't fought many slick fighters regardless of race. Campbell first mentioned "black" as a desperate attempt to get himself a payday against Pacquiao but he shouldn't exploit race in that sense.

Nate Campbell being classless and ignorant is nothing new though.

 

The only slick fighter that you could make a case for him being ducked by Pac is Guzman,other than that there arent any slick around that Pac could've fought.

He now has the chance to fight the slickest fighter around and he will.

 

Are you saying Campbell is slick with good defense? Nah. He can't handle a fast fighter in Bradley what more with Pac?

 

I've been saying this for awhile Pac needs to fight and beat a black american for his legacy to be complete. That's just the way it is blacks have a rich tradition in this sport that can't be denied. You can't be a ATG boxer and finish your career and not have faced an elite black american fighter. everyone has done it Duran, Chavez, Oscar, Calzaghe just to name a few everyone that is but Pac. Put it like this if PBF went his whole career and had never faced a elite Mexican fighter people here would be up and arms and wouldn't let PBF live it down they would demand he fight a Mexican fighter or he would be labeled as ducking Mexicans and they're style no doubt about it and anyone who tells you they wouldn't bash PBF for it is full of ****.

It's no secret why Pac hasn't faced this style it's because he struggles with counter-punchers and his problem would be complicated by speed and defense. Pac is at home with guys who are willing to brawl with him and make defense an afterthought but guys who will strictly box him and employ defense will give him hell and his team knows this and they're really not interested in making these fights unless it's for huge money. Pac must fight a black american fighter before he hangs it up.

 

Cotto has smooth movements, good reflexes, and solid boxing fundamentals.

 

Niccolino Locche was black
