    this thread was doing fine till VD posted this

    "Anybody that rates him the top 10 is clearly someone who goes to his house every weekend and sucks his dikk. Either that or there just plain idiots who don't know the sport."

    VD nuthuggers and pac fan haters just refuse to give more praise to pac. they want pac to stay in between the borderline of atg and a so so boxer.

    VDnuthuggers and pac haters just turn to insulting whenever we dont agree with you.

It gives me more reason to put Pacquiao in top ten because of that fight. I couldn't believe that Pacquaio has a chance against DLH and he proved me dismally wrong.I went against my boy because that seems to be the logical way to go. Pacquaio has shown the world of how great he is and only a hater would make excuses out of his wins.

    Time to put away all our biases and admit that there is one great fighter amidst us and we should be thankful that he has shown us how it is to be a great fighter.

    He is humble and most importantly, he wins fights when even his rabid supporter (that's me) bet against him.
    Can't wait to see a post from someone who IS a hugger

    You're not reading the threads before this jamiebhoy. Here's a hint to help you: that hugger has been given neg reps by true boxing fans here about 2 to 3 threads ago..

    Thanks for the hint, I'm taking that as sarcascm (see how I picked up on that , quick eh ) Please see highlighted areas, I thought for a second I had missed the second coming of Christ. Also based my sarcasm on someone who can refer to themselves as a rabid fan.(You can get shots for that)

    As for how great manny is? Now a days I just sit back with very little to say cause Pac is slowly forcing these haters to admit they were wrong all along. Sure some are still thick as hell but let them rot that way the longer they deny the longer they suffer

    Pac has been complimented as the greatest southpaw ever, I kinda dont agree just yet but Im happy to hear that.

    Pac has been compared to the great Armstrong, again thats a huge compliment and Im happy to hear it.

    These are top 5 - 10 atg comparison but I can not say pac is there yet.

    At the end of pacs career I believe he'll be unforgettable to both fan and anti pac. Thats the real measurement of GREATNESS.
    Who was it that said he's the greatest Southpaw ever?

    Pernell Whittaker in my book is the greatest SP at these weight classes. I'll choose him in his prime over anyone at 135-140 at their prime.
    The old, delusional, senile Burt Sugar I think said it
    If you want me to stay out of it then keep it off the main board.

    LOL. Will i see it as sarcasm or satirical? You started the sarcasm thing and you should know how to handle one when it bounces back.

    Thanks I do , hence the satirical retort in reference to Jesus, and I mean the high up guy not an hispanic fighter

    In closing , I don't think any sportsman can be judged and placed until they are retired, not that I think Pac is dumb enough but what would his legacy be should he say lose his next fight, then another two trying a comeback. I think placing him anywhere in the top 100 is premature in terms of where his final placing would be.

    Just coz we disagree is no reason for personal insults.
    Sorry Porky, but you really did start this one. VD gave him a compliment even if I disagree with where he is placed & you laid into him. If you read through it wasn't till you'd insulted him 2 or 3 times that he actually started insulting you back, which tbh he can't be blamed for. People throw around the term 'top 10 atg' way too easily. The only guy from the last 20 years even fit to be mentioned IMO is Pernell Whitaker. I'd likely have Mayweather, Pacquiao, Jones & Hopkins as the nearest, & I rank them all in the lower 20s/high 30s.

    [quote=Dark Lord Al;780921]I think you have to give credit to pac for going through the divisions , and still carrying power and speed , opinions will always differ , especially when some love him and some hate him. Those who love or hate him really cant give and unbiased view. I do know what I'm talking about , take my hero Tommy Hearns for example , i would make excuses for him , and defend him in any argument , now however when older and wiser although still my favorite boxer ever , i can see both the good and bad in him as a fighter.
    Its also like my view of Joe Calzaghe , because i hated him , i can never really give a balanced view , I'm always going to dwell on the bad parts of his makeup , and give little credit for the good points.
    I do find it hard to understand why people hate PACMAN , he is exciting and is not a loudmouth, boxing in my opinion will be a worse place when Manny hangs up his gloves.[/quote]

    Exactly mate!Weather you like him or not he is just such a forceful game fighter who has'nt avoided anyone in his path.He's already got the well deserved status as a legend in the noble art world.We'll miss him when he eventually hangs up his gloves,soo weather you hate him or like him he deserve big respect.Boxing would be a lot boring now if he was'nt doing what he's doing now would it!

    Agreed Pernell Whitaker was amazing and is one of my favorite fighters, IMO he only lost once and that was when he just got out of rehab, and was way past his prime. And that was against a prime Felix Trinidad.

    And to me despite Pernell Whitaker losing, which i hate to see. He still showed an iron chin and a great heart. I mean how many people went the distance with a prime Felix Trinidad ?

    Its not like Pernell Whitaker was blown away either, he hurt Felix Trinidad badly with a body shot in the 7th round. And if i remember rightly may of technically scored a knockdown, although i can't remember exactly.

    And people also don't know Pernell Whitaker had a broken jaw aswell, Pernell Whitaker wasn't just a great boxer. He could slug it out and dig deep and he showed that in quite a few fights.

    Al I dont think any real fight fans hate Pacman personally ,they do hate alot of his fans.

    So they try to pull them all down a peg every chance they can get.

    I can see why; every Pac related thread for months on the main board was designed as an alter for Manny so that his fans could feel even better about him in his greatness or that they are the greatest boxing fans in the world or fight predictors and know more about the whole sport because one of their countrymen is on the top (then they must all know better than anyone else).

    No disrespect to the Manny fans we have kept here who are all of a more balanced and humble point than some others that we have already got rid of.

    That's what gets me, the people who set him up as a god like figure and only go on about him. They are purely Manny fans, with the odd exception you don't hear them comment on any other fighters as it's just a national pride thing which is great but not reflective of the general nature of the board, which is for fans of boxing not individuals.

    For someone to issue a statement saying that I or anyone dislikes a fighter because he is Asian is plain dumb. That's a chip on the shoulder they have to bear, not me. As a fight fan I don't care what colour or nationality they are so don't go there. The majority of my sporting heroes are black or Hispanic, and living in Australia I live and work amongst a large number of Asians many of whom are friends.

    We don't hate Manny, as a fighter I respect his achievements thus far and hope he continues on with his success. If a regular here says he has him on his all time great list and has him high then cool. If someone who only watches Pac fights says the same thing then that obviously doesn't carry much weight.

    Humility is the key.
