    Stop questioning his personal choices in life (religion, food, women of choice, clothes etc..)

    Judge him on the way he fights. People pay lots of money to see Manny or Floyd fight, whether it's to see them win or lose.

    People don't watch them to know what color panties Pac or Floyd is wearing etc..

    Manny is known as the "good guy" but it's never been a secret in boxing that he has his issues with staying faithful to his wife, and gambling/partying.

    Now he is saying he has turned a new leaf.

    Whatever, as long as he can still beat people up, that's fine with me.

    I have a hard time believing a guy who rallies against birth control in a poor third world country was ever a decent human being.

    Pac a scumbag, now and then.

    I'm not question his personal choices. i am question the way he is being push now vs the way he is being pushed before. He was never perceived to be, nor prompted to be the bad guy. This go round they are promoting him like he gave up gang banging or something.

    Don't worry about it. Shyt i watch Tyson eventhough he is a convicted ****** and Mayorga. What matters is what they do in the ring.

    I don't give a fawk if Pacquiao is a womanizer and gambler and porn addict turn President of a country or a Pope as long as he fights good and make people happy.

    part of the star power and drawing power is who these guys are promoted out side the ring it's part of the package.
    At the end of the day it's all about what they do in the ring, but don't front link its not about how we relate to them as stars as well. other wise there would be no 24/7.

    I can only imagine what it must be like to be Manny. Think about it you are minding your own business and an amazingly beautiful woman throws herself at you and given his status this must happen frequently so we might say, "hell no i would not give in to temptation", but the problem is most of us are not tempted on a regular basis as he must be. I mean i consider myself a faithful man (been married 6 years) and i don't think I will ever be unfaithful to my wife but then again i don't have incredibly beautiful women jumping at. In my mind I honestly think I would just tell them to leave me alone but that is very easy for me to say right now sitting at home with my wife a few feet from me.
