    Freddie Roach is the epitome of credibility:

    "5 day cutoff is fine" (paraphrase)

    The reason this fight was canceled is because of Arum. Pac is not scared, Floyd is not scared, Arum is.

    To be fair, Pacquiao is treated like a God among men, and doesn't seem in a hurry to dispel that notion.

    Floyd is a dope too. Reportedly a nice guy, but a dope.

    Pacquiao also throws around money foolishly, but with seemingly better intentions.

    yes, surprisingly he hasn't been annointed to sainthood by the pope. He's gonna have to keep on performing miracles by knockiing out his opponents.

    His name alone "Emmanuel" translates to "God with us"

    Millions will always look at Manny as being a role model and a national hero. The same cannot be said of Mayweather.

    Just stupid. Just because the man is humble, gives his opponents props, likes the people he fights, and is religious...No reason to say that.
    Besides, in the ring goes Pac is a warrior, he trades with anybody (even Cotto!), he wins most of his big fights as of late by KO, or TKO. Mayweather wouldn't even have the guts to trade with Marquez!

    Yeah...I know they got different styles, but just trying to tell you as to why people LOVE Manny and yet dislike Floyd. Floyd has a big mouth, talks like he's going to Bash his opponent in the ground, and then runs around the ring to a decision.
    Manny doesn't have a big mouth, is humble towards them, gives them props, rips them apart, and then talks about how great they are!

    -300 fav against Hatton, -300 against Cotto, -550 against Diaz, -250 against Marquez in a losing effort. Marginal underdog against DLH, +125.

    My name translates to "Day of God". Most people have meaningful names. Just a cowinky-dink.

    Personally, if I was anointed a God for being a gifted athlete, I wouldn't embrace that notion. Call me crazy.

    If I remember right, in a 24/7 episode, there was about 15 camp members in a two bedroom hotel: 1 bedroom for Manny, 14 for the scum to share. Not much humble about that.

    If you knew their situation before when Manny picked them up and their current status now that they're with Manny you wouldn't say that.
