So you dont see how Floyd's skill level, quickness, speed, defense, superior boxing skill and ring savvy will be enough for him to beat, the wild, winging punch throwing, undisciplined, off-balanced, roid'ed up, pinoy pinata?
Oscar was done but still the favorite 2-1 against Pacquiao and the odds were 9-1 against Manny getting a KO or TKO. Beat both odds resoundingly, wasn't even a fight. Neither guy fought a prime Oscar but Floyd got a SD and spent the whole night curled up in a ball on the ropes, while Manny made him quit on his stool, death by a thousand left hands.
And Hatton fought Collazo at 147 before he took on Floyd and looked AWFUL, he clearly had no business in the division and Money took advantage. Pacquiao beat him at HIS (Hatton's) weight class, where he was undefeated at c. 40-0... decapitated him in the second while knocking him down 2x in the first... with Mayweather Sr and his master tactics backing Hatton up in his corner
So yeah, context.

It is only to do with who makes more money when they fight. Floyd wins that battle. Pacquiao could have all the belts and awards in the World, people are still not willing to spend as much money on him as they are Floyd.
but when manny doesn't do it, it's floyd's fault-----floyd is the bigger attraction, bar none---me and you to name a couple, know this----others on here who don't know ****, won't accept it----

but when manny doesn't do it, it's floyd's fault-----floyd is the bigger attraction, bar none---me and you to name a couple, know this----others on here who don't know ****, won't accept it----
Look at people calling Floyd a duck. But Manny had a chance to agree to these same terms he's agreeing to now and didn't do it. Why were the terms not ok before but they're ok now? That is Manny ducking to me. But when Manny changes his mind like the wind, so do most of his hardcore fans.
I used to like this board, but it seems to be full of children or childish adults.

Since when does being P4P "Catchweight" King means bigger purse split...does this guy think we are all stupd??...
Now if the random drug testing is not an issue why not say it and agree like SSM did...make PBF look bad if he doesnīt accept 50/50, donīt come with the scare BS when PAC is of needles...until then STFU

Mayweather throwing a straight right would be Roach's and Pacquiao's dream come true, easy counter for the patented left hook to put Money to sleep and a real retirement. No way in hell Roger/Floyd Sr would base a gameplan around what would allow Manny to counter with his best KO punch, no way in hell.
See what happened to Floyd when he tried that against Zab Judah in the 2nd round, then imagine Manny throwing the same left that sent Hatton to an early retirement and then you'll finally understand why Floyd Sr has nightmares about Jr fighting Pacquiao.

it's funny about freddie roach, you say he even said oscar was past it, but he didn't say that when he fought floyd, he said it before oscar fought manny, numerous times, he said the same thing with hatton, cotto, and even though he ducked shane twice, even at catcweights, freddie had manny fight these guys when they were way past it-----he even said it-----
floyd fought hatton when he was undefeated, and even though ricky had a tough outing with collazo at 147, ricky won a title from him, and he knocked collazo down in the first round----remember also, collazo is a southpaw, and southpaws are tricky at times-----collazo gave berto problems, more than ricky hatton---it was just the style, not the weight, coz ricky won at his first outing at ww, so quit with all those excuses about floyd fighting ricky at 147---mother****er, floyd came up from 130---ricky started his career at 140, meaning he was bigger than floyd---do people take this into account----have we forgotten this kid?
didn't hatton duck floyd at 140, publicly stating he wasn't ready to fight floyd, and claimed he was more than ready to fight floyd at 147? have you forgotten this, or is it just, you never had any knowledge of this, because you forgeto to do your homework----don't defend manny without doing your homework---especially with me on this forum---i know the in and out of this damn sport, kid---manny is to blame, he's afraid of floyd, not the other way around----
floyd goes up 5 weight classes and remains undefeated, and ricky goes up one, even though, he balloons up to 180 when he's not fighting, and floyd maintains his fighting weight, when he doesn't fight---he stays in the gym and keeps himself disciplined---that's why he beat ricky---he was smarter, craftier, just overall better---just like he was with oscar----nothing more, nothing less----
some people can go up in weight and dominate, some can't----
oh and by the way, floyd's whooping manny's ****ing ass---that i promise you---

Originally posted by mrjoeblive View Postthe only question for you is, at what wt did floyd face oscar at and at what wt did pac face him at? floyd fought oscar at his wt of 154lbs and he stopped using the jab because floyd started dropping the over hand right over his jab. punishing him every time he used it. he took away oscars weapon. and pac fought oscar at 147lbs. a wt he hasnt been at in seven years. a massive advantage for pac. add to that the contract stated oscar had to wt at 147 on fight night so he couldnt re-hydrate. thus leaving him a sitting duck. why didnt manny face him at 154 like floyd did? as for floyd sr training hatton, you cant re-train an old dog. he will always go back to what he knows. and even hatton said he should have had pac tested. so now we will see a law suit of pac vs hatton.
And is A-Side Meth that effective that Pacquiao could go from 134 1/2 against Diaz and then 1 fight later go to 154 to fight Pac? You people wouldn't know logic if it bit you in the a$$. Get your story straight- Pacquiao is on drugs because he gained some weight, but then you ask why he didn't put on 20 pounds in between 1 fight/a few months? Which is it.
There was only one way to make that fight and that was for the 2 to meet in the middle, Pac gains weight, Oscar loses weight... and Oscar was still the 2-1 favorite and the fight was considered a huge mismatch and was going to be one last big payday and easy win for Oscar before riding off into the sunset.
Plans changed, excuses began.
