    Castillo whupped Fraud Runawayther.
    Fraud Runawayther almost broke his back from all that ducking he was doing just so he wouldn't have to fight Margarito.

    Pac decided to take a nap against JMM.
    Past his prime Morales whupped Pac.

    You might want to reconsider using words that you don't know **** about.

    I hardly think there's any consensus among any fans as to who to root for in this fight, except Filipinos perhaps.

    Me thinks

    Mexicans 90% for Pac 10% May
    Mexican Americans 65% Pac 35% May
    Filipinos 99.9% Pac 0.1% May
    Filipino americans 95% Pac 5% May
    African Americans 25% PAC 75% May
    White Americans 60% Pac 40% May

    Doesn't matter. Floyd is going to beat Pac's ass. If you can't fight inside, you can't beat Floyd.

    I think if Marquez never knocked Pac out the majority of Mexicans would side with FMJ

    Seeing Marquez got his deserved win, I think a lot more Mexicans will go with Manny.

    They did this already. What I posted before remains the same. I can't speak to Mexicans in Mexico, but the paisas (Mexican immigrants) that I know are mostly rooting for Floyd. The Chicanos (Mexican-Americans) I know are almost universally aligned with Pacquiao. It's not scientific or anyway representative of either population, but merely an observation of the people that I know.

    I'm here in San Antonio where Mexicans are almost the majority of the population. I find it odd that Pac is the underdog in Las Vegas for reason being, I'm having a hard time looking for someone to bet with. My money is on Pac and I've only found one person(who is black) so far to bet against for a lousy $100 and at even odds. I could bet online but that's something I do not trust at all. So far, almost every boxing fan I know here are rooting for Pac or believe Pac will win.

    Odds are based on ****ysis rather than popularity, most experts (trainers, fighters etc) have Manny as the underdog and for good reason. It doesnt mean Manny has no chance in hell, just that based on size, style, record etc there are more reasons to think Floyd would win rather than Manny. Although I think Floyd will win,bI think Manny has the skills to beat him.

    Pacquiao

    He gets far more respect by nearly every non-black out there and will go down in history as such

    It starts off that way but when more are betting on one or the other,
    it balances or tips the scale, bets are then based on who is getting more bets placed upon.

    I wonder who the Brits are rooting for??? And if it's Pacquiao, how does it sound when pronounced with a British accent?? Does it sound different when pronounced with a Welsh accent, than an English accent, or even a Scottish accent? Oh let's not leave out the Cornish.
