i think he would have beaten him just as bad in barrera's prime so there's no contention there. but a maybe, 70% morales goes in there, and gives him a good boxing lesson, this after coming off a loss to barrera in a very exhausting trilogy? and you will never be able to convince me or 80% of boxing fans that he beat marquez. now, marquez was man enough to give pacquiao a title shot at super feather and when pacquiao got his little gift from the judges, he should have been man enough to return the favor but the way he ducked that third match and went right after david diaz, will always leave a sour taste in my mouth.
how can you call him a #5 ATG, like most of your kababayan, when he absolutely ignores one great fighter to cherry pick a very weak lightweight titlist in diaz? this after everyone and their grandma was calling him out! you've got to admit, that was chicken shit on his part. and speaking of ATG status, do you actually think he's at #5 ATG? just because he's beaten an old and dangerously weight drained, oscar, destroyed an on the downhill hatton, fought for a world title at a catchweight vs. cotto, and now, simply will not take a blood test for PED's, he's rated up there with the immortals of boxing? come on, i know you're probably a decent and somewhat intelligent guy but seems to me you can be easily fooled or manipulated into believing outrageous things. and if this mayweather fight doesn't happen, i understand paul williams is coming down to welterweight just so that he can fight pacquiao. is packy going to duck him too? or if he fights cotto for cotto's new jr. middleweight title, is he going to demand to fight at a catchweight? but the thing
but the thing what made me dislike pacquiao was his incredibly stupid fans. you'll got to admit, some of those nuthuggers wrote the book on hugging pacquiao's man-plums. it's just incredible how these people can worship this cat and at the same time try to discredit others. it seems as if they've got tunnel vision for just this one guy. i mean, i know he's the only viable boxing to come from the philippines since pancho villa (flash elorde was vastly overrated), but this is just ridiculous!
