Has Pacquiao's legacy been built on shot/ruined fighters?

Pacquiao is damaged goods anyway. Merely the leftovers of Singsurat, Torrecampo and Morales.

I don't even know why Floyd is bothering to fight this guy.

So Manny should fight guys who are on winning strikes and guys who are undefeated?

Pac-Cotto- A lot of fans (especially cotto fans) were to agree that cotto didnt lose to Marg fair and square. My point is that Manny was the first guy who defeated cotto fair and square.

Pac-Hatton- Simple, Hatton isnt an elite fighter.

Pac-Delahoya- Pre fight. We all know many boxing fans, analyst, and experts were so sure that its a walk in the park for ODLH wasnt it? Just after the fight excuses were to be drafted.

Your completely basing your point on how many loses does Pac's opponent were before he fought them. By basing it how they losed or win.

I agree about the Oscar being a favorite and Hatton maybe not being elite.

All I'm saying is this: Miguel Cotto was beaten so badly by Antonio Margarito that most boxing experts wondered if Cotto would ever be the same again. The Joshua Clottey fight kinda told us what we needed to know about Cotto. That fight showed that he's still a solid fighter, but his defense has holes and when the going gets tough he'll back pedal and go into retreat mode.

Did we not see this happen against the ELITE Manny Pacman?

I'm not a Manny Pacquiao hater. I like watching the guy fight and I respect his skills immensely. With that said, when I really take a close look at his resume, I see that it's kinda misleading (especially any fight above 135).

He gets loads of credit for beating a Miguel Cotto that was severely beaten and forced to submit (in mma terms: he tapped out) by Antonio Margarito.

Shortly after that fight he was more competitive but nevertheless he caught a beating at the hands of Josh Clottey.

How much credit does Manny Pac really deserve for TKO'ing Miguel Cotto?

We all know De La Hoya was past him prime and weight drained. It was a shocking win for Manny, but again, how much credit does he really deserve?

Out of the three (hatton,dlh,cotto), Ricky Hatton was probably the least faded. And even in that scenario, Hatton was knocked out slightly over a year prior by Mayweather.

Pac is being built into this Ray Robinson-like demi God and I think it's unwarranted.

Mayweather may not be fighting the biggest KILLERS at welterweight, but his last three opponents weren't coming off knockout losses either.

JMM was coming off KO wins over Casamayor and Juan Diaz...
De La Hoya was coming off a career rejuvinating KO of Ricardo Mayorga...
Ricky Hatton was UNDEFEATED at the time he fought Floyd...

In all honesty, Mayweather has fought tougher and FRESHER competition.

I loled at the bolded.. how you can say your not a hater but discredit every win he has..



Get the *** out!...

Why can't Manny Pacquiao's resume be analyzed, scrutinized and examined w/o being considered a hater?

The way you discredit Pac's win the only thing your brain can come up with?
