Pacquiao, like the great Julius Caesar has let the power go to his head

Et' tu Bob Arum?

Pacquiao said about Marquez. "But since I will be the promoter he must first accept all the conditions I ask for ..."

WTF!? What's wrong with this dude.

Marquez made a statement when he moved up to 135lbs and KO'd a man who has never been KO'd, who also happened to be the linear, lightweight champ. JMM beat "the man", and he (Manny) thinks he's the shot caller!?

This guys persona has changed drasticly since accepting to fight DLH. He hasn't even beaten DLH and already see's himself as the new "Golden Boy".

Nate Campbel, Juan Diaz, and now Juan Manuel Marquez just to name a few. Than there's Jorge Linares and Humberto Soto at Jr. Lightweight. Why is he fighting DLH when theres all these great fights to be made at 135/130lbs?? :huh

A fighter who fights for money, is not a fighter at all.

 

Juan Manuel Marquez, I'd bet my left nutt that he would take a smaller purse just to get his hands on Pac.

Miguel Cotto, that dude will fight anyone, money or no money.

I'd like to also clarify my friends, a fighter that puts money before his passion to be the best, to be a champion, is not a fighter but merely a sideshow act.

A human punching bag for a prospect, or fighter looking to pamper numbers on there records.

Mike Tyson is a prime example. Towards the end of his carrier, by his own admission, he no longer had the desire to fight but continued because he needed the money. Compare that to a "hungry" Tyson, the ferocious, hard punching fighter that just wanted to fight. When money was just a perk for doing something he loved to do, knocking dudes the **** out.

That's what I wanted to convey.

 

Cotto didn't have to fight Margarito. Paul Williams, a fighter whom had already beat Margarito. Joshua Clottey, Kermit Cintron, Luis Collazo. Anyone of these fights could be made. Anyone of these fights would have gained him a sizable purse. Cotto sells tickets and PVP, period.

Look at Cotto's resume, Cotto fights the best. He doesn't cherry pick for money. There were alot more less dangerous opponents than Margartio.

He could've done the same thing every other fighter has done with Margarito. Avoid him like the ****ing plague. Like DLH did, like Mosely did, like Mayweather did.

You can believe that **** if you want, but the record shows. Feed that **** to someone that doesn't' know boxing.

 

:rofl:rofl

I like it, thanks for sharing. lmao

 

You guys are missing the point ... Obviously money is a motivator, but money doesn't make a fighter great. The great fighters fight for there legacy. Who wants to be remembered for how much money they made?

When's the last time you heard, "Man I remember that guy, he made this much money." No, instead you hear "Ray Robinson, wow, that guy was a hellva slick boxer." or "yah I remember Jake Lamota, that guy never quit. He had a chin made of granite."

Get the point.

 

Read my original posts, you clearly do not get the point. It's pointless to argue with you. You obviously have nothing reasonable to contribute, and merely just want to bicker.
