[brooklyngod]

i love victor his my dude but i have to say i.m.o.(key word here guys I.M.O.) manny would GIVE HIM A TRASHING!! it would be a war for a bit but then when manny starts pouring it on victor would end up losing the war!! hes just not ready, no if or buts about it!! i say 1.rematch marcos and do what he should have done in the first fight and handle that kid/this time finish him 2.then fight amir khan and i believe victor can beat him 3.then rematch lamont and again do what he should have done in the first fight and beat him 4.fight with sugar shane and who knows how that fight will or can go but it would be something I.M.O. 5.fight manny.

Ortiz would KO Manny in 3 rounds, He's too old already Victor is young & fresh, best believe that old *** wont wanna put his number one fighter with a heavy force like Ortiz

You really being honest about that? You can really see Ortiz beating Cotto, Clottey, DLH, Hatton, and Margs in better fashion than Pac did? What do you think Pac would do to a guy like Maidana for instance?

When they are fighting different guys it's easy to say he'd do this or that..once in the same ring though....wow. I'll give it to Ortiz, he'd make it tough for .......about 3 rds maybe. Pac always studies for a rd or 2, then by the 3rd or 4th rd, he steps on the gas just to see how the other guy responds. 99% of the time, the other guy looks like an amateur when this happens and then that is pretty much all you need to see. Pac can let the other guy build confidence just for the sake of humiliating them at will and giving the fans something to get out of their seats about.

If Ortiz has any success, it's because Pac lets him have it.

You shouldn't be, I explained my position in the preceding post.

And, it baffles me how you could come to the conclusion that "Ortiz to get a beating by Pac".

FACT: The only welter that Pac has EVER fought at 147 is, Josh Clottey.

Ortiz is the polar-opposite to Pac's last 8 opponents - 9, if JMM is next.

When did Pac last fight a skilled, prime, champion, who was on top of his game, and coming off a great win?

Think what you will, but I am going with the obvious.....
the current trend that began in June 2008, will not change until Mayweather.

Cotto was coming off a big win vs Clottey,Clottey was coming off a great fight with Cotto..Hatton was never beatin at 140lb,JMM was beat at 130lb and was/is a beast..I think you just don't wanna give Manny his just due here bro..I want Pac May just like anybody else but to discredit Manny and what he has done in these few yrs sounds a bit like a bitter fan who blames Pac for the Mayweather fight for not coming off..

As for Ortiz he would not beat a Cotto maybe not even Clottey,the jury is still out on this young man and I'm surprised so many are ready for Manny to fight(let's be honest)such an unproven fighter..Is it so when Manny blast him out you can discredit him more by saying Ortiz was not ready??

Ortiz is(imo)not as good as a Marga's and Pac dismantle Marga's..TBH Marga's was one of Pac's only recent fights I had a problem with..Ortiz throws no jab dude,and while he was more skilled then Berto..He could not tie Manny's shoes if they were LA Gear Velcro Straps..Why not let Ortiz prove himself before jumping the gun,I said it before beating Berto was a good win..But it was a win over a unproven fighter,to say he belongs in the same arena as Pac is an insult and comes off as hate..I know your better then that Big Bro..

[mathed]

I'm surprised by this post..Pac is a beast dude and earned all the credit in the world imo..I really don't understand why so many fans want Ortiz to get a beating by Pac??Cause best believe that is what is going to happen..

And you know it's bad if I think Pac beats my boy Bradley. I think Bradley makes it all 12 rds but can't land enough to win the decision- he gives Pac the toughest fight out of anyone available IMO.

i love victor his my dude but i have to say i.m.o.(key word here guys I.M.O.) manny would GIVE HIM A TRASHING!! it would be a war for a bit but then when manny starts pouring it on victor would end up losing the war!! hes just not ready, no if or buts about it!! i say 1.rematch marcos and do what he should have done in the first fight and handle that kid/this time finish him 2.then fight amir khan and i believe victor can beat him 3.then rematch lamont and again do what he should have done in the first fight and beat him 4.fight with sugar shane and who knows how that fight will or can go but it would be something I.M.O. 5.fight manny.

How bout this??I got some for ya..

1.Rematch Berto(if he wants it)if not that then a fight with Karass or Jones..

2.unify the tittle at 147lb..

3.Fight the Winner of Khan Bradley..

4.Get a fight with an established former WW like a Cotto or a Marga's or even a Shane if he is still around..For name recognition..

5.Fight Manny..

We see threw the same eye's on this one bro,even tho I would still bet on Bradley..I'm Loyal like that..But imo Bradley beats both Ortiz and Khan..

[leemoorcroft]

wow this ortiz bollocks is crazy berto was a decent fighter away from an arse woopin would of been off mosley if they had thought last year i like ortiz not a hater at all but all this crap on hear is mad peterson won there fight and maidina made him quit khan bradley maidina even alexander would beat him good power and that but wont be long before hes beat again

* Manny will not fight a skilled boxer
* Manny will not fight a skilled counter-puncher
* Manny will not fight anybody who is in their prime
* Manny will not fight anybody who is on top of their game
* Manny will not fight anybody who is coming off a win
* Manny will not fight anybody without a distinct advantage

I know someone who is opposite of the above sentences. The problem is....he rathered retired to duck the elite welterweights in his division for 5 years and rathered take a vacation to avoid Pacman.

Cotto was coming off a big win vs Clottey,Clottey was coming off a great fight with Cotto..Hatton was never beatin at 140lb,JMM was beat at 130lb and was/is a beast..I think you just don't wanna give Manny his just due here bro..I want Pac May just like anybody else but to discredit Manny and what he has done in these few yrs sounds a bit like a bitter fan who blames Pac for the Mayweather fight for not coming off.

LMAO, I do blame Pac for the fight not coming off, no doubt about that.....

Cotto and Hatton were both cracked eggs, and ripe for the picking.

Cotto, post 600.....

Hatton, and the rest of Pac's last 7 opponents, post 648

And, Marquez won - at least - the second fight. I would like to be able to say that is just my humble opinion, but that is not just my humble opinion most observers had Marquez edging that fight.

As for Ortiz he would not beat a Cotto maybe not even Clottey,the jury is still out on this young man and I'm surprised so many are ready for Manny to fight(let's be honest)such an unproven fighter..Is it so when Manny blast him out you can discredit him more by saying Ortiz was not ready??

As I said earlier, Ortiz is the polar-opposite of Pac's last 8 opponents.

Ortiz is in his prime, he is coming off a great win, and he is clearly the #3 welter..... I am sure that fight will never happen.

The key indicator is, that Ortiz is on top of his game, that factor simply cannot be applied to ANY of Pac's last 8 opponents (incl Mosley).

How can Berto be ready, but Ortiz not ?

Ortiz is(imo)not as good as a Marga's and Pac dismantle Marga's..TBH Marga's was one of Pac's only recent fights I had a problem with..Ortiz throws no jab dude,and while he was more skilled then Berto..He could not tie Manny's shoes if they were LA Gear Velcro Straps..Why not let Ortiz prove himself before jumping the gun,I said it before beating Berto was a good win..But it was a win over a unproven fighter,to say he belongs in the same arena as Pac is an insult and comes off as hate..I know your better then that Big Bro..

No, I simply will never agree with you on that one.

According to Arum, Berto was ready, so how could Ortiz not be ready ?

He is CLEARLY the #3 welter, in his prime, and on top of his game.

There is simply no more suitable opponent for Pacquiao or Mayweather than the #3 welter, who is in his prime, on top of his game, and coming off a great win.

If you disagree, then name a more suitable opponent. And bro, no exhibition match's or catch-weight's please.

Forget option #1. It is highly unlikely that Berto will jump straight back into a rematch.

Option #2 is clearly the best decision.

Let's go Pac
