    Neither, he's not well spoken and uses off phrasing from time to time. He's certainly not dumb but you can tell he's making some points unintentionally while trying to make others. I think assuming he's solely surprised at a foreign fighter's success actually insults his intelligence more. It's the context of Pacquiao vs himself as a citizen in popularity that he is framing the conversation in, but doesn't make it clear by awkwardly saying "It's crazy how he can come to our country and get praised."

    Void is void. Void is afraid of Pac, but now Pac needs to fight Gamboa next, since they claim that Pac has no chance to beat Gamboa, it should sell at any weight.

    Apologies, but I can't understand what you just said.

    If you are trying to make a point that PBF is just upset that as an American citizen he feels slighted by the American audience then yes I agree but that does not change the fact that his reasoning is shallow and his self admittance he does not fight for fans counters his desire to be accepted by the fans.

    PBF has tried to play this "patriotic" fighter before (Joe Buck interview for example), but if there is more to his thinking please clarify since I cannot see anything else than pure resentment and unwilling to to "fight for fans".

    No I'm in full agreement with you in terms of his attitude, I'm just saying I think the statement "It's crazy how he can come to our country and get praised" is in the context of people backing Pac over him- it's just poor phrasing that may lead someone to think he's baffled at the fact an immigrant is successful in the US.

    He's willing to meet up with them to keep up appearances. It would be bad form as a president to brush off the hero-politician of country we're friends with.

    Because he doesn't roll like that. He wants to fight undefeated fighters. Pac has already been beat Spadafora hasn't. :lol:

    Some of this could also apply to Money Paqcuiao now. He got the taste for the big bucks and now doesn't want to fight the best opposition, but the highest paying.
