Word. I was watching that Pacquiao vs Marquez again on youtube a second ago. Idk, Mayweather seems to be judge’s fav ‘cos IMO, De La Hoya won that fight when they clashed. Floyd got skills though, him vs. Pacqiao would be epic.

Hat’s off to one of the greats. it’s not that the great are dying that worries me. it’s the lack of people who are worthy of taking their place. We should all do our best to master our craft just like they did. we owe it to them cuz they paved the way for us to do what we love to do. word.
ps.
precise, it’s not such a good idea to post all that dumb shit on this page man. any page but this one dude. i know you’re just playing but you’re an idiot for that one. sorry. just being real.
