Is Manny Pacquiao Bad For Boxing?

[Violent Demise]

I don't really think Hasim Rahman got Lennox Lewis at the right time, it was more due to Lennox Lewis taking Hasim Rahman lightly. And Lennox Lewis got caught by a lucky punch and if they fought 100 times, they would never happen again. And again i fail to see the comparison here.

I always take exception when i read something like that. Cuz it makes no sense. The main objection in Boxing is to hit your opponent. Why is Rahman's punch lucky?

For real. I hate to this day watching Lennox get knocked silly like that; but that is one punch I can say wasn't lucky. And as you said; they make a living off throwing punches and though Rahman isn't the best HW that ever lived he didn't get where he did throwing lucky ones. Flip the coin and you could say Lewis got lucky in the rematch.

I thought it was one of the greatest things ever. Nothing against Lewis. But that idiotic grin on his face as he backed away with his hands down irritated me. Than BAM! Down he goes. And hard. Looked like a sniper got his ass. All time great classic moment

Well I guess it depends on viewpoint; I just about needed kleenex and IV fluids to keep me afloat.

But I'll say in a way I agree with you because it humiliated Lewis enough to get his sh#t back together and about decapitate Rahman in the rematch; which was good enough for me. Teach him to be making movies and showing up to a training camp weeks before a fight if I remember right. Lessons learned te hard way are sometimes the best.

Got to be one of the stupidest thread titles I have ever read since I have been posting on this site.

Coz the title is so crazey/stupid I have not bothered to read to even read any of the posts on it.
