man i knew some bullshyt was gonna happen with chavez and ggg..was just waiting for the fukkin news..sucks
Dollars make sense, and with HBO trying to low ball Chavez of all people, and them constantly trying to feed him to GGG, and Andre Ward, I even heard Kovalev mentioned on their broadcast a few weeks back, Jr has to feel a certain type of way like they want to do away with him............

Explain how he was just hype:patrice:
We were all led to believe he was this fighter that we assumed had life or death fights with maequez,yet moved up to bully a number of solid to future hall of famer welterweights. Instead we have a guy whom was scared to take blood tests to be in one of the biggest fights of all time,then he wasnt scared and all a sudden looked weaker and slower than before. Punch resistance seems gone or severely lowered and HIS OWN COACH,has questions about what his "fitness instructor" might have given him in the recent past. It's not rocket science. He's not what we thought he was. Meanwhile Money May is still here and in his most recent fight,looked better than he has in years against the best fighter he's fought in years. Hail king floyd

You do know that Pacquiao had an EXCELLENT career prior to moving up to 147 and was 6 Division Champion already?:mjpls:

It's not called "hype".....its called facts:ufdup:

I salute that,but people start putting his name along side floyd's when he start running through welters. But overall we were led to believe he was someone that he never was.

Alex Ariza: I Didn't Leave Manny Pacquiao, He Left Me - Boxing News

We were made to believe what?:dahell:


The facts say it all. Before moving up to 147 initially, Manny Pacquiao was already a 5 Division Champion (I said 6 before but I was wrong), with victories over Sasakul, Ledwaba, Larios, Diaz, and HOFers Morales/MAB/JMM.


I dont understand what you are talking about and the article you posted doesnt have anything to do with anything:manny:


I dont know where you were going with one:lupe:

WE WERE LED TO BELIEVE that he was so great that he can take his speed and power to welter and dominate bigger guys,when he really was a cheat

Another Gold Medal
Canelo is also better than Rigo since he'd beat him in a fight by outweighing dude by 40 pounds.

Let's forget about how each has applied their skills an who has beaten the better fighters. Lets grade every fighter on how well they'd do against nikkas 2 and 3 weight classes above them.

:snoop: but I digress

Argue boxing with Floyd stans aka casual fans brehs.

At this point I'm just hitting them with "Cool." and keep it moving.

Dan Rafael Chat Wrap (Friday 4/18):

- JCC is talking to Haymon. JCC is still rumored to have 9 months left on his TR deal. When Arum returns from overseas next week he will talk with JCC. Dan still puts odds on JCC and TR working things out and the GGG fight happening. Rumors are true that JCC's current offer for GGG includes a contract re-up.
- Still believes that a Canelo-Floyd rematch won't happen...even if Canelo easily beats Lara.
- Doesn't put as much stock as many into Manny not knocking people out. Bradley, Mosley, Margarito, Marquez, Clottey all are known to have good chins and are world class fighters.
- Potential Bradley opponents: rematch with Prov or a fight with Alvarado (if Alvarado loses to Marquez).
- Manny's most likely opponent - winner of Marquez-Alvarado
- If Collazo beats Khan, he enters himself in the fall Mayweather sweepstakes, but would be considered a long shot.
- If Quillin wins, Schaefer says he wants Quillin-Jacobs for the summer.
- Golden Boy's purse bid beat TR's for Russell-Lomachenko (by $2,500). Bid was announced today. Lomachenko would get 60%. Meaning Russell's purse would be $421,000 - by far his biggest. Would be surprised if Russell didn't take it. How much is TBA offering?
- Quillin (159.8), Konecny (158.25), Porter (146.8), Malignaggi (146.2), Shumenov (174.5), Hopkins (172.5)
- HBO won't release PPV figures for Bradley-Pacquiao until they can meet with Arum...expect next week at the earliest.
- If Paulie looks good and wins, he rates him as the dark horse for the Mayweather fall sweepstakes.
- He thought BHop deserved a victory vs Calzaghe by 1 or 2 pts.
- Does not think Mikey Garcia has been treated poorly by HBO. He has been paid well, featured in broadcasts, but has not turned in excellent ratings. He and Rigo, the two most recent to be in the main event yet have the undergrad draw more views. But if he can get more money, more power to him.
