    Double standard is when PBF fans say Belts and Lineal Champs mean crap nowadays as an excuse to avoid certain fights, but defends PBF when he took on Baldomir over certain better fighters that could have made better purse, saying that Baldomir was the logical option because he was the champ and holds a belt

    same thing could apply to Manny for taking on David Diaz instead of Casamayor or Campbell

    Hahaha im not arguing that mate But seriously, fans will be fans. There will always be double standards in favor or against your boxer. Not fair to complain when the double standard goes against your fighter when you are doing your own double standard in favor of your fighter IMO.

    I promise this is the last

    Double standard is when PBF fans takes the punch stat numbers from the DLH fight to point out that it wasn't a close fight and should have been a UD for PBF, but when presented with punch stat numbers from the 1st Castillo fight, says that its a whole different story and should be looked at differently

    lol just for the record i'm not a Mayweather fan, just don't see why he's getting attacked by most people for things that Pacquiao is doing himself, albeit in a more discreet way, with all the catchweight bullshit

    My honest answer to that is ... because Pac is a likeable guy who engages in exciting fights. While Mayweather is a loud mouth, arrogant, self promoting dude who usually is in boring fights
