Has Pacquiao Avoided Fighting African Americans?

[jpitt]

Everybody knows Mexicans dominate all the lower divisions, and Pacquiao beat all the top mexicans. Blacks have all the middle divisions and up. But Mexicans throughout history run the lower divisions. Name one REAL black fighter from the states that was in the same division as Pac when he was coming up??? exactly. The best fighters in his weight were mexicans like Morales, Barrera, and Marquez who are three HOFers. So i dont understand this article.

not anymore dude. It's getting whiter and whiter up there.

Yes it's true and I have always stated that. Manny is just a made fighter that Arum produced to get the filipino fans to believe he is a great fighter. I have always asked why did he not fight Raheem, Guzman, Casamayor and Nate Campbell. Look at Manny's resume. You don't see any black fighters on his resume but yet you claim he's a good fighter. He would get embarrassed if he ever fought Guzman. Now you want to put him in the ring with Floyd. Why do you think Freddie Roach had said that a fight with Mayweather Jr would not interest him? Because he knows that Floyd will beat the crap out of Manny. Anyone that knows boxing would know that Manny has terrible footwork, throws punches like an amateur, has no defense and can't take a bodyshot. So if they put him in the ring with a black fighter he would have been EXPOSED! I know Manny's fans don't want to hear the truth but it is what it is. John David Jackson is totally correct. Just to add a note to this, when Soto beat up Manny's brother Bobby, Soto asked Manny to come and get revenge for his brother and Manny never did. He knew that Soto was a live active fighter. It's more then just not fighting black fighters. Manny don't want to fight anyone that has boxing skills. When he got revenge on Morales, Morales had already lost to Raheem. The truth is coming out! hahaha

You're dellusioned! what makes you think that the blackman has and none to the whiteman? what makes you think the black man is more superior than the whiteman,huh?

Simply doesn't make sense because I didn't see any special thing to the then champ Ledwaba when Pacman demolished him!

Don't Get Mad When you Hear the truth!

The truth is that Morales boxed the hell out of Manny the first time they met and Morales is not even a great boxer. Like Jim Lampley said, they would be a fool to let Manny fight Raheem because we know he can easily be made a fool of in the ring. Why would he pick David Diaz to fight? The weakest lightweight in the division. Kendall Holt had knocked out Diaz. Manny has not beaten any fighters that hasn't been beat by someone else. Manny has been KO'd before and it will happen again. Arum had butterbean the king of the 4 rounders, now he has Manny the best p4p fighter but yet he stayed away from the real black fighters. Now what you see today in boxing is these promoters trying to make the filipino fighters look good by putting them in the ring with the weaker mexican fighters. NOT THE GOOD MEXICAN FIGHTERS! Look at the show on Thursday in San Diego, they put some filipino name Guesta in the ring with a washed up bum from Tijuana in the main event and the bout lasted 1 round. You can fool whoever you want but you can't fool the real boxing fans.

[QUOTE=chiyoko;5353256]Manny is the biggest fraud of our era.I dont see no skills in that guy and to me he makes a lot of mistakes.You hit it on the head man,couldnt have put it better.

Manny only does well against people with little defence or sluggers.Real boxing is about hitting and not get hit.Put in Manny with someone with proper boxing skills and Manny is average.Even JMM exposed Manny.Manny will have to fight an elite black fighter before he can even be considered a great boxer[/QUOTE

The only biggest fraud is your knowledge of the sport really. You mean to say to shut out 3 bigger men in a TKO fashion or complete submission takes no skills? Please lay off the crack pipe. Taking on all 3 of the great featherweights in this era, Morales, Barrera, and Marquez is an easier route then fighting no name black fighters in that division. Hmmm lets so who was a top class black fighter in the featherweight division UMMM NO ONE.

To many idiots on here actually agreeing with this article. Please, if thats the case Mayweather has been ducking Asian fighters and Marquez has been ducking UK fighters.

Please quit the nonsense.

Just because big black boys play football ,Basketball or are now highly paid bodyguards.

Kind of like when the Italian, Irish, and other white fighters left the sport as they became more upwardly mobile back in the day

The question this article was based on is very, very ******. Simple answer to this question is no. And are you a crazy person?

[GRUSTLER]

I think this article has a point. I'm not on the race tip hard like that
but people are saying Manny is P4P the best fighter and he hasn't
fought and beat a legit African American fighter throughout his career?
People criticize Floyd but I think he has fought every race fighter there
is in the sport. Manny should fight an African American.

That goes to show you how racist you are! I never said that the black fighter is superior. That's not what we are talking about. You are an idiot and when you can't talk with common sense then don't speak. First of all if you want to get technical there are no good white fighters in the US. I like the Klitschko's, and Joe Calzaghe. Do me a favor and talk what you know, maybe some about knitting

Name one Asian fighter Floyd fought.
