    Floyds about to show up on BET this week, I dont think Pac has alot of popularity in the US other than in Filipino communities. Around the world, I dont know but it seems that Pacs winning in the poll so I guess hes more popular in other places.

    But to be seriously PAC is popular because he is asian. If Pac was black or white american nobody would give a damn about him including you people.

    Pretty pricy product. Its a line of hoddies and sweatpants that usually range between 150-250 dollars per product.

    I would say its gotta be PBF. He has marketed himself well amongst the public. He did WWE, dancing with the stars and cribs. Not to mention he has had 3 24/7s. Pac i dont think could be the face of boxing because he is too quite and humble. Not to mention he just doesnt have that charisma. Right now the ones that would fall under that category are PBF, Hopkins, and maybe even RJJ.
    Cotto and Manny are 2 guys who are just too quiet to be the face of boxing. Both exciting fighters but just no charisma. I think Shane might have more charisma than both.

    Bob Arum, Don King, Oscar De La Hoya and other boxing handlers. Bribes, scandals, judges, rankings - those are faces of our sport
