Is it time to call Pacquiao the GOAT?

What does that even mean? ::

 

Because Pacman is smaller than Floyd, therefore Morales and Barrera weren't smaller than Pacquiao as they would have been to Floyd, Pacquiao moved up to fight them.

Seriously, how hard is that to understand?

 

SOLID Wins...


REED:hammert:

 

::

So basically the same thing.

 

exactly....wtf?

 

No, Not Hardly..."Top-Tier" is just UNDER Elite...A Top 10 Lb for Lb'der is an ELITE Fighter...A "Top Tier" Guy is Slightly LESS than that...YOU Named David Diaz who AT BEST Might have Been in the Top 100-150 Lb for Lb @ 1 Point::...Larios MIGHT have Been Top 50-100 @ 1 Point...

Velasquez, Lucero & Solis??...Please::...

NONE of those Guys even Resembles a "Top-Tier" Fighter, Dude...@ BEST, they're SOLID Wins like REED Said...



REED:hammert:

 

Floyd shouldn't fight Pacquiao then.

 

*sigh* Pac has firmly established himself as a force at Floyd's weight. Something Hatton & Marquez never did.

 

I can keep going on with this. I'm just showing how people shit on one fighter for something and praise another for the damn same thing.

 

This part is true and there is no arguing it - Pacquiao just destroyed a legitimate welterweight, he has proven himself to be a viable top challenge at welterweight.

this works both ways tho - if floyd beats him, i don't wanna hear any of this "oh he beat a much smaller guy" bullshit

 

If Floyd beats Pac it's the biggest win of his career by far, he'll get credit from me for sure

 

That's PRECISELY What U"ll Hear Though..."Pac was a Blown-Up Flyweight"..."Pac was a Blown Up Featherweight"...."Pac had NO Business @ Welterweight Anyways"...


REED:shit:

 

Mayweather will find a way to duck Pac, either by demanding 60% of by doing what he's already doing, making it seem like it would be no big deal to beat Manny. :shit:

 

So Top 50-100 isn't top tier considering there are over 82,000 registered boxers in the sport world wide? The Top 1% of the sport isn't consider Top Tier to you? ::

Admit it, you're just playing REEDmantics.

 

N No WAY, SHAPE or FORM Can the Likes of Manny Lucero & David Diaz B Classified as "Top Tier", Dude...Is Kendall Holt "Top Tier"??...What about Jason Litzau???....



REED::

 

Of course. They represent name fighters you can name off the top of your head. Now if you're talking about Billy "Club Sandwich" Mortegan with a 0-12 record out of Bumfuck, Texas, then I'd say yeah, he's not top tier.

 

Just Because U're a "Name" Fighter, that DOESN'T Make U "Top Tier"...Emmanuel Burton is a "Name" Fighter but he's NOT "Top Tier"...Just ADMIT that U 1nce Again Caught a Case of Paquiao LUST & OVERSTATED your Point...



REED:hammert:

 

Here's the funny thing...

Manny's win over Cotto trumps Floyd's best wins over welterweights.

 

Well this is all semantics isn't it, but I'd say a champion can be called 'top tier'. I'd have no problem calling David Diaz (or Carlos Baldomir) a top tier Lightweight (/welterweight), even though he was by no means an elite champ.:dunno: I mean a tier isn't a peak, by it's very nature there are gonna be several 'top tier' guys grouped at the top of a division.

 

You're just playing REEDmantics.

Seriously, you can argue about anything.

 

Once he gets going he's a train on tracks.::

 

Has Pacquiao ever beaten a great fighter in their prime?

 

Does Barrera ring a bell? (Ring Magazine P4P #3 or #4 when they fought)

 

marquez

 

Dumbass question by Cupey.

That's precisely why the MAB fight was so surprising.

 

agreed. Cotto is a better welterweight than anyone Floyd has defeated

 

Your the smart guy who says Manny is the Greatest Fighter of All Time one day and doubts if he can even beat Floyd the next.:notallthere:

 

Marquez is not in his prime. That's like saying Hopkins was in his prime when he beat Pavlik.

Cupey

 

Well I did get one prediction right, I said you would show up after the fight, and guess what, you did!!

I wonder how long it will take before your run out of here again .

You don't know boxing, all you do is ride on Manny's nuts.

1,000.00 says Floyd beat Manny.

Now step up or shut the F**K up.

 

There's always stuff people can nitpick, it's silly, if he hadn't taken those fights the same nitpickers would be saying "why didn't he fight him?". Manny has been a breath of fresh air and taken on everyone who people want him to fight, enjoy the guy while he's here, he's incredible.
