He didn’t beat Marquez, actually he was out boxed.

i’ve had enough of people like you saying that the wins of hatton and dela hoya are questionable. you talk like pacquiao’s been fighting at that weight since forever. again, he started at friggin’ flyweight dammit. that enough says it all.

Nobody, and I mean nobody can question his legacy simply because he’s not supposed to beat hatton, not supposed to beat delahoya and not supposed to beat diaz and marquez and morales and barrera. he wasn’t supposed to beat anyone above featherweight but they all got defeated by manny. stop looking at manny’s fight with hatton and dela hoya with doubt. past their prime or not, he wasn’t supposed to beat them all. but he did. that’s why manny is where he is now and that’s why everyone’s debating.

Cotto can reverse his impending loss on 11/14 if he can use the best weapon in his arsenal… THE LOW BLOW… remmember the Juddah fight?

I’m a pacman follower but I agree with most of your analysis. It brings to ground overstatements of odds in favor of pacman. Yours is based on “historical objecyive conditions.” I believe its a pacman KO on the first three if he aptly applies his speed or a TKO on the next three. But it’s a Cotto victory if it goes beyond the sixth round.

OK PWA (Paquiao Worldwide Army), another site to boycott. he sees the greatness of cotto. but when it comes to pacquiao’s greatness, this site downplays it.

probosing-fans and nowboxing website only uses pacs name to generate hits, so dont click their sites when yous see it on your browsers!!!!

Pacman may have beaten the over the hill Oscar and not so talented Hatton but the manner in which he beat them makes it spectacular. Those 2 guys never had a shot, in fact they didn’t even hit Manny a single punch that they could write their Mom about.

TRUTH as I always see will prevail Mr. Livenson you really a good writer you do it honestly your views were clear but you some question that must be answered first by you so we can react, why is mayweather exceptional for paquiao to beat him what are some reasons in your mind, for me the clear answer is mayweather’s style of boxing is tailored type for paquiao a runner and the pursuader that is why many wants thier fight to happened to know how far can mayweather runaway, or how many punch can paquaio throw to destroy his defense and can he slug with paquiao? those
question is yet to answer

My Perception: You are definitely one very confused writer. You thought very hard to come out with sensible analysis of the fans perceptions, only to hit a brick wall head on at the end.
But Not So Fast: A closer examination proves you have a brain “two more” and wishes to spread the virus to us boxing fans.
Prescription: Get a life other than writing. I heard PacMan is still hiring to add more people to his entourage. That’s a no brainer!

“If perception and reality were tied together as tightly as one might think, we would all be making money gambling on boxing”

Wrong. Many made money betting on Pacman.

Excuses, excuses, excuses on why ODLH and Hatton lost.
Excuses, excuses, excuses on why Cotto loses on Saturday.
