"Lord of the Rings" LOL. That is funny, unfortunately Pac isn't the first to collect useless belts in an effort to establish ring creditability instead of getting that creditability by beating the best competition available, a lot of others have done the same. A lot of the boxing business is based on promotional fiction, not reality, it is the way products are marketed, and unfortunately for us Top Rank is in the business of marketing a product not producing the best possible boxing matches.

Experts sexperts... I pointed that out way back in the Cotto fight. You know I'm a pac fan, but I can't stand the fact that he's fighting Margarito for a very meaningless Jr. Middleweight belt. As if Margarito is the man to beat at that weight!!! This would be just like me being declared math champion after beating that horse on tv who can count.



This is all Mayweather's fault, had he simply said "YES" we wouldn't be witnessing this atrocity.

A) The experts know that this Top Rank monopoly attempt is ruining boxing because it's not giving fans (or writers for that matter) the fights they want to see.

B) The experts already respect Manny Pacquiao...but because they view him so highly their level of expectation is higher for him. Fighting for vacant titles just to add to an already great legacy is not how they want to finish his story.

C) I think for some, they do not like the idea of giving the commisions the finger and fighting Margarito who was banned. Why reward this cheater/ criminal? It also is funny that these people would go out of the US to make a fight because the commisions won't allow it...and they hid behind the commisions to avoid the drug tests Floyd demanded.

D) I think because some Pac fans are trying to put him in the same breath as Ray Robinson and Henry Armstrong...the experts are saying to be in thier company you got to do it the way they did. This is the same for how they get mad at Floyd forsaying he is better than Ali and Robinson.

of course they will continue with the fight. what you posted are just like what you said, "blogs". there are tons of blogs out there that will state the exact opposite of what they have posted. and a ton more blaming floyd for not signing the contract.



do you feel like you're in a quest or something? do you feel that if you don't stop spamming here the fight is going to be cancelled?



and if you want to talk about circus, your desperate posts are always filled with corny name-calling. padman? top prank? lord of the rings quest? did your grandma made all of those stuff up?
