    Everyone knows Pacquiao hasn't been very good ever since he started taking less roids. Wonder why Roach wants Ariza out?

    I don't like Bradley, but that is Kendall Holt. The dude has/had dynamite in those hands. That is the same Kendall Holt that destroyed David Diaz in 8. The same bum that Pac gets credit for beating.

    Somehow, like the rest of the game opponents, Pac magically made it up to 154 without facing Holt, or any of them for that matter.

    look at this ****ing *******, believe everything that jew said

    Pacwho/Clotto...fight never even real, sparring match in front of CGIed crowd. Nobody even watched it, I don't know anybody that watched it.


    I know for fact, Pacwho/Mosley had 10 people in the arena, CGI, dummy!

    Pac/Marquez had a crowd but you forget to mention they all Mexicano.

    As far as i know this never happened for Floyd fight, at first i honestly tough it should not be anything but 50/50 now Pac should take 45% if he can and be happy about it, and he should leave Arum just so he doesnt get robbed.

    Well, I wasn't talking to you and if you read the correspondence then you would see what the point is.

    Basically what's happening is a case of own medicine being served to Pacquiao fans here who flood the board around any Mayweather fight with articles and quotes regarding how his upcoming fight will be a flop.

    Anyway, I like the Pac-Bradley fight and think Bradley is going to pull it out. I'm shelling out $65 for the HD PPV and am quite excited about it. Should be a good night. :bbb

    Bottom line anybody who discredits this fight is not a fan of the sport, true fight fans should embrace fights like this, and when they resort to talking about PPV numbers and discreditng other fighters in favor of their over some stupid **** dont call those people fight fans

    I got homies visting Vegas right now who ain't even boxing fans. One of them called me from Vegas yesterday asking if the boxing fight happening this weekend was worth going to and these non fans scored tickets. I'm jealous I've never been to a fight featuring one of the top guys in the sport but it surprises me that only a few days out a group of guys that ain't even fans of the sport are able to score cheap tickets.

    I don't call people fight fans with a disgraceful vcash total of 75 :dead

    Plus, you have more agenda and bias than most here on ESB. Get off your high horse, ma'am.

    Pac might have lost a lot of appeal to casuals after his last few fights. When he was at his peak in popularity it was when he was the little man slaying giants, breaking records and **** like that. I don't think the casuals were in to Pac like that as a fighter but more into the rid he as having.

    Then there is the appeal of him beating Mayweather, Pac's popularity goes by how much of a theat people believe he is to Mayweather. After the Marquez fight a lot of people decided that he is no match for Mayweather. If he beats the dog crap out of Bradley like completely wipes him out like he did Cotto then he will be back to what he was a couple yrs ago.
