Mercer's jab too was giving Lewis trouble, requiring Lewis, like you said, to go to plan B. I think Lewis too was fighting for fame that night.
Who hasn't looked like garbage against Clottey? The guy is a good fighter.
i'm not arguing he's the same. i'm simply saying whatever decline Cotto has had, it doesn't account fully for how easily Pacquia dominated him.
we don't know if it was Mosley's best win. i'd argue his best win came in 2001. plus, we simply don't know how good or shitty Margarito actually...
he may not be the same but I don't think he's degraded to the point you can't conclude that Pacquiao out-performed Mosley in their respective...
even if he isn't, there's simply no way that the Cotto who fought Pacquiao could've declined to the extent he would have to have for it to be...
Is that Terry Norris? Or Orlin?
Here's my working list... 1. Pacquiao 2. Duran 3. Robinson 4. Tyson 5. Sanchez 6. Hagler 7. Chavez 8. Hearns 9. RJJ 10. Arguello 11. Charles...
You forgot Julio Gonzalez !!! :bears:
either way his nose is jacked.
:laughing: Where's Lennox Lewis? Pryor? Your list is shit. :laughing:
Whether we want to admit it or not, all else being equal, the more contemporary a fighter is, the more we know about his ability.
PBF is promoted by GBP. Period. PBF comes off really stupid when he appears convinced otherwise.
there's nothing like a good roided up performance - scares the shit out of PBF. it's probably why he was afraid of Mosley before.
Not at all. PBF may use illegal tactics, but I've never considered him stinky. He's not one to hold, although it could be argued that he's adopted...
ok. I'll take your word for it, not only that the majority of viewers were influenced by Lederman's score-card, but also that Lampley was....
...which is exactly why most people feel that Castillo deserved the nod.
WTF?!!! Pacquiao was on the cover of Time Magazine !!! Pacquiao is a world-wide phenom. PBF is a crumb-snatching retiree.
1940s: Joe Louis - ok 1950s: Ray Robinson - ok 1960s: Muhammad Ali - ok 1970s: Muhammad Ali (honorable mentions to Duran and Monzon) - no 1980s:...
What current fighters aim to win by neutralizing their opponent with common stink, foregoing courage and skill in favor of controlling the action...
Pacquiao would beat Stinkaker's azz.
PBF - a willingness to remain retired, rather than carry on his wretched career.
PBF will find some way out of this fight. It looks bleak for him now, but you watch.
ok. just be sure you don't let enter your mind those wins that Duran had at 147. ok. how about Manny vs. Duran at 140? Manny's best win there...
so none of Pacquiao's achievements at 140 or 147 can be taken into account? In assessing his chances at 135 of beating Duran?
ok. so PBF isn't vulnerable everytime he's faced the division's best. i guess the point is, PBF's career in the last several years, since...
well, let's start talking about PBF like he's human then.
I think the biggest take away from the PBF/Castillo fight is the reality that PBF, "when" he faces his division's best, is without a doubt...
boxrec? to figure out that Duran faced Viruet? you think you're really something special, don't you? news flash - more people than you think have...
Would Duran find out that Pacquiao is light years better than Viruet?
