PSL,
marquez doesn't have nothing to prove to pacquiao. he's already made him look ordinary twice in beating him. and do you really, really think these welters of today can compete with the duran's, sugar ray leonard's, thomas hearns, wilfredo benitez, etc...
hatton - overrated fighter and you know it. his only great win was against a very old and end of his rope, kostya tszyu. he almost got ko'd by juan lazcano, for crying out loud. besides, he was just a mayweather leftover.
de la hoya - okay, great win against a dangerously dehydrated fighter who would have lost to any good fighter at welterweight that night. roach said he knew pacquiao would KO him because he saw needle marks on oscar's arm. do you really think the world saw the very best of oscar that night?
clottey - here is a very imposing physical specimen with zero heart. the man just wanted to survive that fight and take a retirement paycheck. of course pacquiao looked great. clottey wasn't punching back for reasons nobody can understand.
cotto - a great victory for pacquiao. i honestly thought cotto would beat him and he beat him fair and square. but come on now, do you really think pacquiao really, really deserved that world title at a catchweight? seriously? come on now, everyone's going to read this.
margarito - another surprise from pacquiao but at another catchweight for another world title. do you really think these world titles are truly legit? in the world of boxing today, world titles don't mean much unless you defend them multiple times. that's the true measure of a great champion.
look, again i'm not belittling pacquiao's accomplishments because they have been many but to say he's the GOAT or top 10 all-time is ludicrous. he's first and foremost an offensive fighter and by dehydrating his opponents, it weakens them greatly. now i know why pacquiao wouldn't take those blood tests, because arum never wanted this fight to begin with. let's see, refusing a blood test for 40 million dollars? just doesn't add up.
like i said, arum is an evil genius! he knows the inner workings of boxing and has carefully made pacquiao something that he quite isn't. but hey, great fighter. i always enjoy his fights!![]()
