    Kid I was in the gym with Roach and Pac for five years, he has a say in who they have chosen to fight his input is put first above Arum. He picks fights, an example I will give you here, When Morales fought Raheem, after the weigh in as Pac fought on the same card that night just prior to their rematch.
    They saw Erik on the scales, and when they came back from the weigh in Fortune and Roach were both openly discussing how sick Morales looked on the scales they knew he couldnt make the lower weight any longer.

    I have never seen a trainer happy that a fighter looked sick and drained like that.. its pretty pathetic cus all this talk about protecting a fighter and keeping the sport safe, they sure as **** do not care what risk they put fighters at in demanding catch weights, and fighting someone who is clearly shot and clearly has trouble making the weight.

    I do not expect a ******* to understand this.... the majority of you do not know what a Gym looks like. Much less the ins and outs of the sport.

    Arum also didn't want the fight. Why fight someone outside of Top Rank even if it's for the legit belt.

    Looking back...to when Money May came out of retirement...the beating he would have given Pacquaio would have killed the popularity of the sport to some degree because Pacquiao is a great athlete/garbage boxer...who brought NEW CASUAL FANS TO BOXING...Fighter of the Decade...lol F**K Outta here...

    gym blah blah blah. Pac, Donaire, Penalosa used to go in our gym in Baguio City, Phil when I was still back in the PI.

    And yes, you can label me as a ******* coz I know all of the posters who gets in your way are called *******s. You can have more boxing knowledge than any of us here in ESB, you may be a trainer (and yes you are), but I have know you being a staunch hater. so much for a boxing fan:patsch

    Come on now he has earned fighter of the decade, How many times has manny stepped up and taken on a fighter which we all said would beat him only for him to prove us wrong?
    The man has fought some of boxings biggest names and beat them soundly there is no way you can NOT give him his just dues.
    Floyd still spanks him but for **** sakes be real with it Manny has carried the sport while other fighters were making smart business decisions and taking vacations.

    Problem is I only become a hater of Pac when I say something that doesnt set well with idiots like you.
    I am a dedicated Hater of Floyd Mayweather thats a fact and I say that proudly :deal

    lol i dont have to bring up those posts since 2009 of pure hating. I like your post sometimes that's why I dont usually argue with you, but you and Doc has a lot in common.

    I hate these Pac-May threads. Why am I here in the first place?

    I respect your opinion but I have to disagree...HE BEAT NAMES...not a whole lot of quality opposition...not fighter's in their primes...catch weights...coming off losses...I mean what he did was the equivalent Brian Mcbride & Danny Williams Claiming to be great because they beat Mike Tyson...

    Pure hating? Wow kid, I am not sure if you are aware of this, But you are allowed to be objective and critical of fighters, I mean the way you make it sound if someone is sucking mannys balls they are a hater.

    I am going to call it how I see it, Period!

    Kid Barrera was still whipping ass when he beat him, a little past his best but was still the best feather weight, he drew with Marquez, beat him twice those are solid wins over a solid fighter.
    He did beat Morales twice yes old and shot but look at Morales now he has had some nice fights since he came back and has held his own.
    Hatton was utterly destroyed, of which Hatton was coming off of his best performance in out boxing and stopping Paulie.
    He took on Cotto sure at a catch weight but thats still a solid win, even Cotto said the weight was not a problem.
    He took on Clottey a guy who gave Margarito trouble early and who had won a title.
    the Margarito catch weight fight, for a bogus title okay I can see that but wasnt Judah title bogus when Floyd fought him? and Margarito is a guy that Floyd did duck regardless of the scandal that occured later.
    then he turns around and fights and undefeated Bradley and loses a close SD.
    over all you can argue about the catch weights all you want, but the moment a fighter signs and agrees to it, all excuses go out the door.
    Keep in Mind Mayweather was supposed to honor a catchweight agreement and he blatantly did not make the weight rather paid Marquez, so whats worse at the end of the day a catch weight in which both fighters agree and actually do make the weight or a catch weight that you blatantly fail to make the agreed on weight?
