This May Sound Bitter But Pac isin't A $49.95 Fighter

[ICB]

I think the key is in what people are saying here. You need two to tango, I have no problem with a legitimate great matchup being on PPV but these one sided affairs are better left on regular HBO. The undercard was great though and my guess is we wouldn't have seen all the fights on regular HBO so no complaints there. I'm glad HBO has ditched the 2 fight undercard for the most part.

The better statement is which future Pac fight is woth $49.95 ? Based on his new weight class none. The talent pool there and their personalities do not serve interest to anyone but Pac fans.

Asking JMM to move up to 135 would also be a farce, being that JMM can not KO Pac at 130.

So only a A Guzman fight based upon Guzman's performance at 135 warrants $49.95. Pac should be cashing in. However, Pac is now a victim of mediocore and inexperienced talent. MAB and EM were worn and old. Poor Pac is just a victim of poor timing. His ceiling has just been lowered by lack of legitimate opponents.


JMM has been Pac's really only true competition and the 2 fights were controversial.

Oh please how can you say theres no interesting match ups for Pacquiao at 135 ?? its one of the hottest divisions in boxing at the moment probably only 2nd to Welterweight.

Manny Pacquiao vs Juan Manuel Marquez vs Joel Casamayor Winner.
Manny Pacquiao vs Juan Diaz vs Michael Katsidis winner.
Manny Pacquiao vs Joan Guzman vs Nate Campbell winner.

Any of these match ups are worth paying for, and i hate people like you who just hate on a fighter no matter what they do. His 1st fight with Barrera, Barrera was not long coming off his best performance against Naseem Hamed, and also had a few other victory's over good opposition and was looking better than ever and showed no sign's of being shot in fact he looked at his peak. How can you actually sit there and not give Pacquiao his credit for dominating Barrera ?? and people also exaggerate how shot Morales was as well. Morales was still a very good fighter in both fights with Pacquiao, and Pacquiao deserves his credit for those 2 fights. And even the 3rd fight because no one has ever done to Morales what Pacquiao did.
