Pac could have took on a tailormade opponent like Floyd is doing with Maidana but instead he is fighting his weakness a slick mover.
Chris can move like Lara and everyone who has criticized Pac will tell you this is a stylistic problem for Manny, he can;t fight movers.
Chris is like Lara the ultimate mover, gotta give Pac mad respect and props for taking on a hungry young undefeated guy like Chris, he is giving some new blood a shot at least and a guy who presents him huge problems in the ring.
They should make this on Regular HBO though not PPV. treat the fans Arum, give us one free fight with Pacqiuao, like you used to do with Oscar from time to time.

Originally posted by hectari View Postnow you are just hating, so instead of giving Pac props you have to add the DECENT pop to discredit Pac fighting a stylistic nightmare for him. Just give it up you are reaching for anything.
Who is there who can fight off the back foot and has decent Pop? Marquez right? Pac fought him, name another guy, there isn;t any most guys who fight off the back foot are called cuteys and slicksters aka outboxers. Floyd hasn;t fight anyone like Bradley or Algieri, and LOL at you throwing in that decent pop in there to take away any credibility, just admit Floyd doesn't fight guys like Algieri or Bradley he likes flat foot guys. I would even want to see Floyd in with Khan, but Floyd seems to say the same thing to Khan he is doing to Pac, Floyd said Khan has Garcia and Peterson problems like he told Pac he has Marquez and Bradley problems as to why he won't fight either guy, yet He never tells Maidana that he has Alexander problems.
I have criticized Pac fights before.
Pac fighting Marquez a 4th time, I criticized the fight big time and said it shouldn;t have been made because it was too risky and that from what I seen in sparring Marquez would knock out Pacquiao and he did.
I didn't like that fight.
Also I didn't like the Clottey fight at all I criticized the fight even being made.
As for Floyd not fighting Algeiri-this is good,because the whole world would be critical of the match up-it would reek of boring. As for a match-up with Floyd/Bradley-I wouldn't mind seeing that.
I don't view Algeiri or Bradley as slick fighters...Bradley has made a name off of being aggressive and fighting on the inside-far from what I consider slick.
Perhaps I am the minority when I say a Khan and Floyd fight doesn't interest me.The only fight with Floyd I am VERY interested in atm is against Pac....just as the only fight Pac should be demanding is one with Mayweather, but I have just not seen Pac press that issue or push for a Floyd fight....I still remember not so long ago that Pac said his phone is available 24/7, yet when Mayweather called him,he didn't wanna negotiate!Last edited by damned1974; 07-15-2014, 11:07 PM.
