Where were ya'll when I was a fan of his in 2003 when he beat Barrera?
Where were ya'll when he lost to Morales?
When he fought to a draw against Marquez?
Where???
I hate that....Don't jump on the bandwagon now. I've been a fan and I've stopped being one since he got that controversial win against Marquez in their 2nd bout...
Much respect to the Republic of the Philippines and all of its beautiful people, but seriously STOP hopping on the bandwagon....DUDE HAS BEEN A BEAST FOR NEARLY A DECADE!!!!!!!!!
I can feel where you stand. Sometimes its weird when your boys don't even know some of the Mexicans he went through.
I'm just glad that he's humble and very happy to represent the country more than anything.
He is truly a People's Champion.
No I'am not jumping on any bandwagon. Just saying as casual sports fan u dont hear his name much. But its good to hear a filipino doing histhing but I would like to see him beat PBF before consider him being on top though.Originally Posted by Clutchshooter

you musta had your head in the sand for a while now.
Not sayin Pacquiao's better for that reason, all I'm saying is I don't think Mayweather is THAT much better than him, and I think ucan make an argument that Pacquaio is better than him...seems like everyone just expects Mayweather to sweep the floor w/ Pacquiao easily, I don't see thathappeningOriginally Posted by GUNNA GET IT
styles make fights, when have u ever known floyd to go for kos early. he is a technician, two different fighters, two different fightsOriginally Posted by amishpimp27
I'll say this, for everyone saying Mayweather would make such quick work of Pacquiao...
Mayweather took 10 rds to beat Hatton and looked uncomfortable and akward for the first 4 rds. This was also at Mayweather's more comfortable weight of 147, where Hatton had not been impressive in any of his fights (i thought he lost to Collazo and Castillo was just there to pick up a paycheck against him)...
Pacquiao, without the weight advantage (if anything, his natural weight of 130-135 put him at a disadvantage) dominated, knocked him down 3x and the fight wsa over in 2 rds
Just saying, bc some of u probably don't follow boxing...2 guys fought the same man and 1 had an advantage. The one with the advantage needed 10 rds to win, and needed to adapt after struggling early, while the one without an advantage won in 2 rds while destroying the opponent easily...Not saying this is the only test/measure of a fighter, but from that, which fighter do you think is better?
Just something to think about for everyone who thinks Mayweather>>>>>>Pacquiao
comparing the two vs same opponents dont hold water.
Ali damn near got killed by frazier twice, frazier got ko's early by foreman, Ali ko's foreman
theres no a beats b worse than c so a can beat c
and I am far from a PBF apologist
GREAT KO TONITE
House was goin crazy!
Where has ANYONE said that?Originally Posted by amishpimp27
