Originally posted by PrinceCharlez View PostManny Pacquiao is a good fighter but I feel as though he is overrated and people are falling into the HYPE the media surrounds him with. Not to take anything away from him but his career has been crafted to make him into a super star these last few years. Fighting Oscar, Hatton, Cotto & Clottey didnt prove much to me. Oscar at his age could not perform at 147 so that was a give me fight. Hatton had suffered a ko against floyd and in his return bout was staggered in the 10th round only to escape with a victory to be ko in his next fight. Cotto was damaged after the margarito fight and hasnt been the same since. He wasnt the same against jennings, clottey, pac, or foreman. Cotto needs to RETIRE ASAP. And clottey? Well we wont even talk about that character.
All im saying is people are blowing this fight up the way FLoyd would want you to. He's been in this hot seat numerous times and one other time that was similar was against Hatton. After Hatton stopped Castilo with a body shot he said "These 4 rounds had more excitment then Floyds whole career". People bought into it, the hype was crazy, I was considered a ***** then as well as now.
At the end of the day Floyd is just to technical & Manny makes too many mistakes that Floyd will capitalize on. The fight will be a shut out victory for Floyd. You might not like his style but u have to respect it.

Only in hindsight can anyone call Pac's career hyped or deliberately crafted. He took on most of the best in each division that he fought in and won, not only in a convincing fashion, but in devastating fashion. That's why he was able to capture the imagination of fight fans around the world.
It cannot be denied that Floyd is a great boxer with overwhelming skills and physical advantages over Pacquiao. But there is a reason why you, me and every other fight fan and boxing expert are salivating over this dream match.
