anyone giving jesse vargas a chance to win this weekend? the guy is not bad. he defied odds and beat ali. and he hurt bradley very badly.
Being that Pac is way past it, VargTrash has a slim chance. But Manny is still most likely gonna be too fast and good for Jesse's slow ass.
Unless Pacquiao is completely SHOT...as in he can't let his hands go at all...slow as Campas.....his legs are heavy and slow...OTHERWISE Pacquiao is going to fuck that dude UP...
I wouldn't be surprised if Pacquiao went from "past-prime" to "shot" overnight anytime soon. Although he hasn't looked shot, eventually the age and all the punishment has got to catch up with him. He's been on the decline since the Plasterito fight 6 years ago.
Maybe if it was NANDO Vargas, you know the guy who Sugar Ray Leonard's only chance of beating him is via stink.
Anybody liking this Valdez kid? Sure this fight is a gimme but the way he obliterated Avalos, Rueda and Gradovic in his last three fights is pretty impressive for such a young fighter.
Valdez is a killer. the last year to 18 months he has been training a lot more seriously and realizing his immense potential.
I'm not rooting for Vargas. That scrub thinks he's a lot better than he is. I hope Pac gives him an ass whuppin to remind him that he's a palooka.
:: :: Would you believe I looked at the thread and saw there were 2 extra posts in it and thought the fight must be on Sunday night ::
This forum only cares about Kovalev and complaining about Wald Pussy, GGG, Crapnelo and maybe a possible Mayweather comeback... :: Then you got a few special interest. Errol Spence and Anthony Joshua...
Pac is done. He looked old and slower than usual. Donaire is shot and needs to retire. Valdez looks good but needs more experience before getting in there with the other champions.
Now throw bum ass Vargas in with Spence, so that Spence can dispatch yet another Pac victim that Manny failed to stop.
Floyd being in attendance means the writing is on the wall. Floyd vs Pac II is coming. Should be billed as "Let's Scam Em Again".
This will do good but not great numbers a second time. Nobody will expect anything other than the same fight with both being even more inactive and boring.
Pac's footwork looked good at times but overall he's too far past it to beat anybody elite. The decision on the Donaire fight was questionable but at the end of the day it doesn't really matter. If Manny is past his prime Nonito is downright shot and needs to get out.
Wouldn't mind seeing Pac-Crawford. Fuck Mayweather again, nobody cares. If it isn't Crawford he should just retire.
Mate... :: I was JUST ON MY WAY to this thread to say it was a matter of time before Hearn came sniffing around ::
Pac isn't gonna fight Crawford. Stop holding your breath on that on. Roach isn't stupid. He talks a lot of shit, but he knows TC would fuck Manny up at this point. Arum knows it also, but he's more concerned with trying to make Loma a mainstream star than trying to make Crawford a mainstream star.
Arum is an idiot, no forward thinking at all. Manny is on the way out, put him in with Crawford and get TC some crossover exposure. Then you have a ready made super fight down the line anyway with Crawford-Loma.
Before I just wanted Loma to beat Walters, then move to 140, because 135 seemed like a waste land. But now, Loma vs Mikey Garcia becomes a matchup that we ALL deserve to see at 135. Can it be made is a different story...
Its not up to Arum. Pacquiao's camp turned down crawford as an opponent. Arum would have gladly made that fight instead of vargas
