Sounds like it to me too. Poor little Manny has all those dollar signs flashing before his eyes and the only way to get them is to try and lure down decent WW fighters because he's too scrawny to make 147 properly. If that's the case then he should stay at 140 where he belongs and just fight for normal but very decent purses.
I don't care who he fights, but I want the prima donna knocked out in exactly the same way I want Amir Khan knocked out. Mosley and Cotto should maintain their stances and force Manny up to 147, if he won't go there then screw the little muppet. And let him fight Nate Campbell and Paulie Malignaggi instead. Or maybe, Berto is the superfight Manny is looking for now at the cash out stage of his career.
I am happy for them to fight for the WW belt, but all Manny has to do is come in within the weight range and Cotto can come within the range too. Problem for Manny that is 147 for Cotto END OF.
You might be PFP at the moment but stop fucking with the rules, the limits are the limits.
Miles , do you ever dream of Khan and Pacman in there together and knocking each other the F*** out Rocky style. Not a criticism mate , just something I am starting to think about myself now !!
Not really.
I just like to vent on the Pac threads because I find them warped to the extreme. Khan with his idiot mutterings and Pac with his grotesque demands. I did actually have a dream the other night about James Toney. For some reason Toney was playing Ashes cricket for England and was bowling. I was getting a bit concerned because I know he's getting on and he had a fight coming up and thought he should be resting or at least training for the fight rather than trying to skittle the Aussies. It was a strange dream, hopefully I won't have that one again.
But yeah, Manny and Khan!![]()
How much worse do you want to see Khan knocked out?

LOL, we at saddoboxing.com react to every rumor during negotiations like its truth revealed from on high by Zab Judah, does this not scream negotiating ploy to anybody, its what you do when you want to get your way, you use leverage, leverage in this case being Manny's team saying they can always make a fight with Shane if things don't work. And that is even if the rumor is remotely true which given the professionalism of the article in general is questionable.
Cotto-Pacquaio will almost surely happen.
at the article though, that was pure comedic gold, one of the funniest things I've read in a while.
Hasn't Pac - Cotto already been signed and announced?
Hence my very insightful article of recent weeks, namely do we judge fighters too much by comments or opinions attributed to them by media reports or crappy journalism rather than hearing what they themselves have to say.
Reading Miles postings is interesting to say the least. He wants to see Manny knocked out brutally for his 'grotesque' demands, frankly that's a bizarre point of view.
Manny is one of the best things to happen for boxing in a long long time. He's arguably the most exciting fighter of his generation, a very humble, dignified multiple world champ with a huge fighting heart and we should feel privaleged to see this little little big man go for history with a record breaking seventh world title win.
But Miles is once again letting his hatred of fanyboy posters warp his increasingly bitter mind.
Manny is making negotiations over weight because he's come to the very extremes of his weight limits. He has already moved through and won world titles in 6 weight classes, equalling the all time world record. He's now going for a record seventh, never in history done before.
All the other greats who won 6 world titles at 6 weights also had catchweights and negotioted hard, or in the case of Roy Jones handpicked the weakest heavyweight champ in recent history but Manny is wanting to fight the very best.
To Miles, if you think his demands are so grotesque, what other 6 weight world champ when challening for his seventh weight class was a more easy negotiator than Manny is being?
I just want to be bark on this tree.....run forrest..run
