Manny would walk through Alvarez. Saul is too green plus he doesn't have a name yet. He's a good contender but he will never get Manny.Quote:

margarito gotr what he deserved im glad the ref didnt stop the fight!!
floyd will never fight manny now!!
pac was 7 inches shorter
6 inch reach disadvantage
17lbs underwieght
margarito has never been a good fightet in my opinion. the only reason he is in the spot light is because he loaded his hands and got a few impressive victories
typical mexican nigger behavior if you ask me
who won the amir khan fight?
Karma definitely, Margarito is going into surgery today to repair a broken eye socket...he's also been hospitalized since the fight. I don't see Mayweather stepping up anytime soon.Quote:

I know that Pacman has a better defense than Cotto/Cintron but he did land flush shots against Pacman while also wearing 8 oz. Cleto Reyes gloves. Hopefully he fights with Cotto next & takes another beating.
hah what the fuck is that arab just duffing out a crowd for
I don't know but he was dropping them left and right
Hopkins: Manny Pacquiao beatable
ESPN.com news services
Would an African-American boxer stand a better chance against Manny Pacquiao than his most recent competition?
“ Floyd Mayweather would beat Manny Pacquiao because the styles that African-American fighters -- and I mean, black fighters from the streets or the inner cities -- would be successful.Bernard Hopkins thinks so. And while boxing fans wait -- and wait -- for Pacquiao (52-3-2, 38 KOs) and Floyd Mayweather Jr. to finally agree to terms for a fight, Hopkins is asserting that an African-American fighter's style would give Pacquiao more of a challenge than Antonio Margarito was able to muster against Pacquiao on Saturday night, according to a story on Fanhouse.com.
” --Bernard Hopkins
And Hopkins -- who said he's voicing what other black fighters and fight fans are thinking but reluctant to say -- is wondering why Pacquaio hasn't fought Mayweather "or any other top-notch black fighter," according to the report.
"Floyd Mayweather would beat Manny Pacquiao because the styles that African-American fighters -- and I mean, black fighters from the streets or the inner cities -- would be successful," said Hopkins, according to Fanhouse.com. "I think Floyd Mayweather would pot-shot Pacquiao and bust him up in between the four-to-five punches that Pacquiao throws and then set him up later on down the line."
Pacquaio fought and defeated Joshua Clottey of Ghana earlier this year, but Hopkins discounted that win, saying "Clottey is 'black,' but not a 'black boxer' from the states with a slick style."
“ The selection of opponents for Manny has nothing to do with race, creed or color. It's all about business. And they can cry all that they want.The Pacquiao and Mayweather camps have twice tried and failed to set up a fight between the two fighters, despite predictions it would become the most lucrative fight ever. The first set of talks broke down in part over disagreements about Olympic-style drug testing.
” -- Pacquiao adviser Michael Koncz
Pacquiao adviser Michael Koncz strongly denied that Pacquaio is ducking anybody of any color or background, according to the report.
"The selection of opponents for Manny has nothing to do with race, creed or color," Koncz said, according to the report. "It's all about business. And they can cry all that they want. It's all about economics, now, with Manny's career.
"We have the luxury of doing that because Manny has proven to the world that he's got nothing left to prove. If there are any boxing people out there who doubt him, then, to hell with them," Koncz said, according to the report.
Bob Arum, who promotes Pacquaio, said he has heard that argument before, according to the report. He also denied Pacquaio is ducking anyone.
"I have heard that, yes. A lot of people don't articulate it. But a lot of people, in effect, hint at it. But you're absolutely correct, and there is no argument there," Arum said, according to the report. "The notion that he would not fight an African-American fighter is ridiculous."
what a stupid thing to say ha ha ha

^ Hopkins is one of my favorite fighters of all time, but that's some ignorant shit right there.
lol at Hopkins thats some real dumb shit to say.
after Manny abusing Margarito, there is zero chance of a Mayweather-Pacman fight. i just dont see Floyd doing it.
the Haye fight was one of the biggest jokes in boxing history. in 3 rounds Harrison only threw 1 punch. worse thing was that it was hyped as a propa heavyweight title fight. and even worse than that it was pay per view and some ppl actually bought it thinking something special would happen.Quote:

aside from looking at hopkins remarks from a racial politically correct stance, its kinda a stupid analogy.
Mickey Ward and Gatti fought like a couple of street fighters. Floyd fights like a BOXER in the sweet science sense.
and so does Manny, which is why it would be a great fight.
But Floyd is scared.
