Re: F$#& Pacquiao...I'd rather see JMM vs. Guzman
I find it hard to believe, shockingly hard to believe, that Guzman found a way to get out of fighting Katsidis. Never believed that for a second, just makes no sense.
The problem with Guzman, like with Hitman Donny saying he's the future, he's already 32. He doesn't seem like an "old" 32 considering he's good defensively and hasn't taken that many punches but he's still 32 and a guy that relies on speed so he needs to move now. Its easy to forget that Pac's younger than him although I kinda wonder how long Pac has left too cause even though he's younger he's got a style, or at least used to have a style, that isn't built for a long career, definitely not a Hopkins type of career. That and he's so reliant on his speed too.

guzman should fight kat or valero. if he gets past those two then he can try his luck with jmm or pac. I think guzman is top soft for jmm and pac. these two are just hard mofo, jmm and pac are the only elites left. Nobody will really stand in there way except for eachother.
Guzman is number 3 at the weight.And I'm not even a fan of his. He would give both JMM and Pacman trouble with his style.And Guzman is anything but soft ???. I don't think he's ever been down and I've never seen him hurt.
Where the heck is Kkisser,seriously,he is the only Manny fan that actually knows his boxing.Most other Pacman fans start trying to diss any percieved "threat" to their fighter. Soto is a more dangerous and live opponent than MAB/Morales the third and Solis.By far and away.
why em i not suprise, el gamo quick to bash pac fans but his as bias as any other fan. thinking his opinions are always better. wow and you said soto is more dangerous than mab/morales the third and solis???????? well in your oppinion yes since pac is done with all three of them. what do you think soto will do any better then mab/em and solis? the em that fought pac the third time is the only man who has hit and beat pac the hardest. Pac just overcame him that does not mean soto is any better. well its always the same, the guys pac hasn't fought are better then the guys he has already finished off.
guzman jmm will be nice and all but pac jmm is the truth! i don't see why in the world would anybody think a fight with guzman will be any better? as old as guzman is, his still a level below jmm and pac. guzman can look good with guys like soto well thats becuase soto is nowhere near jmm or pacs level. its a whole new league with these two, guzman can't act all pretty and pose against them. They ain't soto.

Although I certainly would like to think I justify my opinion more than certain posters who say fighters who have never been knocked out are too "soft" to fight other fighters. I gave Manny full credit for his wins over Morales the first 2 times,just because I don't kiss his ass when he beats faded fighters(MAB and Morales the third time) or unknowns(Solis) doesn't make me "biased".

If you watch younger Hopkins he didn't have a style that looked like it would be fruitful for a long career... he had dirty, tough fights. However, Hopkins has always lived a very structured, boxing oriented life while Pacquaio and Mayweather both go out on the town and do too much outside their boxing life, and I think this may have an effect on their career more so than a style could. I personally believe that if Pacquaio slows down his life outside the ring he could be around for a while, he has the skills and the ability to do it.

That's true, and its why people who only have seen Hopkins from Trinidad on think he's boring when really he had some exciting fights. I like watching him as a "boxer" now anyway although I can understand why people don't.
But he was always pretty defensively responsible even so. Well, I've never seen the Mercado fight where he got knocked down twice but he wasn't just a face first fighter. Not that Pac really was either but I don't think he was as tight defensively for a while. That and he's been fighting for a long time for a guy that's only, what 27. And I think he relies a bit more on his speed and explosiveness than Hopkins did.
I'm not saying I think Pac's about to get old overnight, I just wonder how long he's gonna be in his true prime.

Besides his fight first fight with Pacquaio when did Barrera look outclassed in any of his fights until he fought Pacquiao again? Against Marquez that was a really close fight, and the judges must have been smoking something to get the scores they did. Barrera has just changed his style, he isn't just a shell of his former self. He beat Juarez just as decisively as Soto did, and Soto fought Solis until it was stopped with a headbutt, but though he had the upper hand, he didn't look anything like Pacquaio looked in there with Solis who is another underrated boxer. All this aside, I can't see how you would prefer to see a talented, and entertaining Guzman fight Marquez when a higher ranked Pacquaio who already has business to settle with JMM, and one of the most exciting styles in boxing should be every fans wish to see fight Marquez.

Re: F$#& Pacquiao...I'd rather see JMM vs. Guzman
Yeah CC Ice.
Even though I'm a big Guzman fan, I actually don't agree with wanting to see Guzman-JMM over JMM-Pac, even though I want to see Guzman get a chance, a JMM-Pac rematch is one of those fights that has to happen.
Now if it doesn't happen, and say Pac goes up to 135 then sure, Guzman deserves a chance. Who else is there, I'm not too sure about Valero and above all he can't fight in the U.S.

I'm not saying I think Pac's about to get old overnight, I just wonder how long he's gonna be in his true prime.
Depends on how he fights I think, if he continues to fight the way he is right now I think he has every ability to continue to be great for a long time... like Duran. THe one thing I've noticed about Pacquaio is that he still picking up new things that Roach is teaching him. He developed that right hook a few years ago, and now he's developing not only defensive skills, but also a more calculated offence that is harder to time he doesn't come in every single second still.
I also agree that Hopkins always had good technique... or at least did the funny thing about Hopkins is that he still has good reflexes(dodged a lot of Winky's jabs on reflexes alone), he has developed a really good shoulder roll, and is very hard to hit when he is fighting defensively, but generally I view him as an unorthodox fighter who does things that aren't done by the book. First of all I don't think any trainer would teach a boxer to throw lead crosses with their head facing the ground or throwing a leaping left hook without blinding speed, but Hopkins is able to do it because of his great timing, experience and footwork. As for Pacquaio I could see him having trouble at first when he moves up to lightweight if he is forced to back up, I know Hopkins had troubles with it, but Pacquaio has all those great qualities that could make him a great counter puncher, amazing footspeed, great reflexes, and superb footwork(just watch how quickly he can change directions).

Well said. I actually think Barrera fought one half of a great fight plan in the rematch with Pac. He moved very well and was able to make Pac miss quite a bit. Marco just didn't have it in him to let his hands go anymore. The Marquez/Pac rematch needs to happen. They had a great first fight and almost evryone wants to see them go at again. Guzman is a real slick and talented fighter. He will be a handful for anyone. But he needs to wait for Pac and Marquez to finish their business.

no real point argueing. just do yourself a favor gamo and learn a few things from taeth. mab and em would of beaten anybody in the division besides pac and prolly jmm. its just the way pac beat them that makes fans like you think boxers pac hasn't fought are better. But like always after each pac fight guys like you are proven wrong and left with no choice to leave your hope on the next no-hoper that pac will beat. Jmm is who you guys should stick to, kuz ain't nobody but jmm can soundly beat pac. Its between those two really. Just kuz guzman beat soto doesn't make him suddenly in the elites. And jmm and pac are the only two elites left. Pac has taken out two of the other elites, thats why a fight with jmm is the best possible match. Any other fight for pac will be a waste of time kuz by the end of the fights pac proves guys like you wrong again. And if it wasn't jmm who he beat it would of meant nothing cause jmm is who he needs to fight and vise versa for jmm.
pac and jmm are like isreal and rafa at bantamweight. they are just a level above everyone else. guzman level wise is like caballero and valero is like de leon. Atleast it my oppinion and im sure jmm and pac will continue to prove how much above they are against the rest.
Re: F$#& Pacquiao...I'd rather see JMM vs. Guzman
I don't know how anyone can say yet that Guzman isn't on JMM or Pac's level when all he's done is box rings around every opponent he has faced. Until he steps up to that level you won't be able to say.
Re: F$#& Pacquiao...I'd rather see JMM vs. Guzman
He didn't box rings around Barios... he won a close fight there. THe point I am making is he hasn't attained that level. I think very likely he could be at an elite level, but so was Barrera the first time Pacquaio dismantled him. I think that Pacquaio makes elite fighters look bad.

Pacquaio landed almost 40% of his punches against Barrera :S thats a lot against a guy like Barrera... Marquez didn't land anywhere near that much.
