    Shut up troll.

    Know your boxing idiot. Floyd don't have enough power to rattle Pacman.

    Watch out for those ****ing lefts.

    These celebrities will disagree with you. There is a pretty long list of them, btw.

    You can post all the washedup stars you want, that will never make Manny the equal of a prime Tyson, Louis, SRR, SRL, or Jack Johnson.

    Pac is superior to Void, not only as a boxer, but as a person...............

    I feel sorry for you. Kobe, LeBron, Garnett, Pierce, MMA stars, Denzel Washington, Mark Wahlberg, etc. are all fans of Pac. Who is this non-washed up star you are talking about that is not a fan of Pac? Heck, even Paris Hilton is a fan of Pac. You are not talking about Just ine Beiber, right?

    Now show us the video of Floyd's fans.

    Most people in the American public don't pay attention to catchweight much. It tends to be the hardcore fans who criticize it, really. Besides, Pac has won 50+ fights and has fought in what, 2 catchweights? With this next one being only the 3rd? Hardly a "catchweight champ".

    Whether he intended to or not, Floyd attached his name to Pac for all time ever since he started trash talking him half a decade ago, even before Pac even acknowledged Floyd's existence. So if they don't fight ever, most people who know his name will always wonder why he didn't fight Pac rather than the other way around.

    Pac has fought in as many catchweight fights as Hopkins and SRL.
    Also Mayweather announced his comeback during the Pac-Hatton fight weekend, at the same venue. The guy attached his name to Pac.

    No one ever mentions that either, not even hardcore fans. Not sure why that is, other than the fact that they're Americans.

    Pac will counter the jab with the right hook, angles, movement and intelligent pressure. Now....Floyd will land but one or two shots won't discourage PAC who will throw 5, 6, 7 punch combos where 3 or 4 might find their mark.

    Floyd might get on his bike and be the definition of "fleet footed"...but he won't win a decision that way and he won't get any credit for just surviving after all the talk and drama he created.

    PAC surpassed Louis, SRR, SRL and Jack in terms of popularity....in the US included...Globally NO competition as PAC is by far more well known in his era.

    Louis, SRR and leonard's LEGEND and LEGACY have made them relevant years after their careers ended and they'll always be linked to boxing history as ALL TIME GREATS. But you're trippin if you think PAC ain't popular in the US.

    they are parrots and they would be happy if floyd makes more money even if they won't get a penny out of it.
