    when depsite the fact that you're inactive, people who claim to dislike you and are obsessed with you and continue to make oxymoronic threads daily talking about how you're irrelevant so you shoudln't be talked about, threads about your gambling winnings, and just generally obsessed with every little thing that you do.

    or when the fiancé of the second biggest attraction in the sport is talking about you on twitter.

    while he is making t-shirts about you and using your name to try to stay relevant.

    -Everyone calls you out, including the second biggest name/attraction in the sport, fighters 2 classes lower and 2 classes higher, while you just don't give a damn because all roads lead to you

    -Everyone caves in to your silly catchweight demands

    -You get talked about OUTSIDE of ESB

    -You have a Nike endorsement

    Oh yeah, filthy rich, baby.

    Hat does that say about joe calzaghe? He has been retired for 3 years and he still gets loads of threads. Mostly by americans who just want to say how ward/hopkins/rjj are better!

    For the past several months, I've been asking people mid-conversation about their familiarity with Pacquiao and Mayweather. In Washington state (where the Asian population is... well, heavy to say the least), much less than half the people I've asked know who Pacquiao is, none could tell me about him other than "he's a real good boxer," and even those who claimed to be fans couldn't tell me anything past vs. Hatton or Cotto. I've come across two or three total that didn't know who Mayweather was.

    Pacquiao's popularity in the United States is HIGHLY, HIGHLY exaggerated.

    But nonetheless, to you and those like you, he became in Icon for your generation. And not necessarily for those who've followed him as a boxing fan!
