When the easiest competition Pac can find is TBE,

He lost that fight...no need to talk about that.


a Top 10 p4p at the time Bradley.. Top 10 in the divisiom Vargas.. ranked #2 under the WBO and IBF Jeff Horn where they offerng $20 million...

Beating Bradley again didn't prove or show anything.....Vargas was never a legit top 10 Welterweight, at any point in his life.....Jeff Horn is a bum:heh:



He's dragging down his legacy which is reflected in the fact he cant sell half the PPVs he used to do:manny:


:jbhmm:But Im trying to figure out how a Buscuit stan got anything to say??.. Gets humped and slumped by a barely top 10 in the division Devon Alexander and Amir Khan leftovers.. goes from bum after bum.. gets bodied again by Porter... fights more bums.. goes life and death with Granados... couldn't even make weight in his last 2 fights... nikka is the epitome of "drag down your legacy"



AB has nothing to do with this, but you have a problem with staying on topic and always wanna use AB's name to boost your post views:russell:



*edit* and since you using organizational rankings...everyone AB's faced since Maidana, outside Carlos Molina, was ranked by an organization as well.....including Allakhverdiev who Vargas still has problems:sas2:**

So we're gonna ignore the huge amount of money Australia is offering for this fight??..

Arum wanted Pac/Crawford, but wasnt willing to match that guarantee hes getting for the Horn fight...

And to the people shytting on Horn.. Horn has the ranking whether you like it or not

So, now you using Organizational rankings to defend Pac's opposition?

Drag down your legacy brehs:wow:

I am going to stay consistent and say that at this point I believe Pacquiao has the right to fight whoever he wants. His resume is legit 10x over and we all know he is winding down due to age, so I understand he can fight whoever he wants to get paid. Basically the victory lap tour. :manny:
However, Pacquiao needs to remember that just because someone like myself doesn't care who he fights, he has to be realistic with his financial understanding.
A Broner fight may be his biggest PPV option. HBO has soured on Pacquiao, but they may be willing to throw money in the pot if he fights Crawford.
It is fine as long as he understands that the people paying him may ask more of him to get the money he desires. Free lunches in boxing are becoming harder to come by.

That said, the two fights Pacquiao has to take (if available) or else he deserves criticism are: Mayweather and JMM. If he is going to continue to fight and gets offered those fights, he should get criticized if he didn't take them. More just a statement of what I believe on those two fights, I don't think that will actually happen because I believe those are the two fights Pacquiao wants more than anything.

Mikkel Kessler Ring Return in Play For World Boxing Super Series

By Per Ake Persson

Team Sauerland stage a press conference tomorrow at an upscale hotel in Copenhagen, Denmark, to announce "big news for Danish boxing". And the big news is according to Danish media that the Viking Warrior, Mikkel Kessler (46-3, 35 KOs), is coming back apparently to be one of the participants in the World Boxing Super Series that will begin this fall.

The now 38-year old Kessler officially announced his retirement early 2015 but his last fight dates back to May 25, 2013, when he fought Carl Froch for the second time and lost on points after another classic battle.

Whether or not Kessler is coming back at super middleweight or light heavyweight is another good question.

Kessler had a lot of problems with injuries in the later stages of his career but has remained in good if not excellent shape and every now and then he has sparred with the likes of Abdul Khattab and Hampus Henriksson.

The World Boxing Super Series will be a bracket-style elimination tournament featuring a total of $50 million in prize money. The winner will receive the Muhammad Ali Trophy.

The tournament will be organised by newly-founded Comosa AG, a Swiss-registered company with principal owners from the world of marketing (Highlight Event & Entertainment), broadcasting (Modern Times Group) and boxing (Team Sauerland).

The tournament, the first of its kind, will kick off in September 2017. It will be taking place on an annual basis. The inaugural season of the World Boxing Super Series will feature two weight classes, 16 fighters and a total of 14 main events. In each weight class, eight boxers will battle it out in a bracket-style elimination tournament, with four quarter-finals, two semi-finals and one final. This makes for seven top fights per weight class, and a total of 14 fights in season 1 to be staged in premier venues around the globe.

An expert panel will invite the top 15-ranked fighters of the four big federations WBA, WBC, IBF and WBO. The eight Quarter Finals – four in each weight class – will take place in September and October 2017, with the four Semi Finals scheduled for January and February 2018. The two Finals will then go down in May 2018.

:leon: salute the Viking Warrior...but he's 38 years old :patrice:...and he hasn't fought in almost 4 years though..but i have respect for him..he put in work at 168 in the 2000s and early 2010s

I think he should be criticized for not facing Crawford or Thurman

pacquaio vs jeff hornaceck:laff:

jesus christ my man, if you aint gettin those crawford beats just retire

Exactly what I meant by saying he's dragging down his legacy.


It would be like Floyd losing to Pacquiao.....then facing Cotto again, then somebody like Sadam Ali, then Sammy Vasquez. All on PPV:dead:


Like come on man:russ:
