Another ad hominem attack.

OK, let's try to find some middle-gound, shall we?

Can you prove you've criticised Manny Pacquiao for including weight-related stipulations in his fight contracts?

Can you honestly say you've never criticised other fighters for including weight-related stipulations in their fight contracts?

Two simple questions.

Mannys run from the 2nd morales fight until the 3rd marquez fight was special.

In that roughly 6 years he went 16 and 0 with 8 wins coming against hall of famers and it spanned 4 weight classes.

His thurman victory is a heck of an achievement too

great fighter, caveats included

some sad stuff in this thread, worse than me and panchito rambling on

manny is an absolute f@cking legend, even with all points of criticism considered. amazing that he did what he did , and considering where he started from. then even in his 40s to beat a young, top rated prime welter. awesome, legendary fighter, even if not as good as fmj

btw-- he never failed a ped test

In many ways Thurman is up there as one of his better wins given his age, I wonder if that performance has been underrated a little bit. It’s a better win than Diaz or dead and drained DLH from the prime weight hopping phase, for example. Maybe better than all but Marquez Morales and Cotto. I’d have to think and he’s had a lot of fights

His demolition of MAB was most impressive imo

I'd have to go with his bludgeoning of Cotto. When you look at Cotto's sterling efforts against Mayweather and Canelo, then look at what Pac did to him. It was pretty awesome.
