Well, this is the type of comment that is needed as a boxing fan. I still see resentment in your post, which I imagine is down to Pacquiao fans annoying you which gives you a niggling hatred, but you put that aside enough to comment on the guys actual skills and stuff. Persoanally I think the fans of both hate the opposing fans more than the fighters themselves. Mayweather has alot to hate about him, but that goes in and gets the W from guys who earned a title shot regardless.
*****s speak down on Pac in order to bust *******s' chops, and vice-versa with Floyd and *******s. Deep inside, both sides acknowledge both fighters' accomplishments, but are just loathe to admit it to anyone else. Damn, what did I just admit?
AS you can see. Most Mayweather fans like PAcquiao. Its his fans that are Pac's greatest promotional weakness.
Cheers....Pac is a machine..hes also great to watch...he just loves pain...U got to respect a guy who got Bruce for an idol.
Ok. I used to not like mayweather (his personality) so I also shunned him as a fighter (when I was younger). Now I am a fan of Mayweather as a fighter, but not as a person. So here is how I break down Pac as a fan of both: 1. Manny as a fighter: He is great. He makes great improvements and I think his supreme belief in himself and his outstanding relationship with Freddie Roach has really helped Manny self actualize as an Elite A+ fighter. He is a great and very very dynamic and exciting fighter to watch. I love his heart and passion in the ring. 2. Manny as a person: I don't see him much different than Mayweather. Mayweather plays "The Bad Boy" and gets backlash for it. Pac Man plays the hero and gets praised. But there is a disconnect with me as a FIGHT FAN. For a man "about the people" then give "the people" the fights they want to see. Stop the dumb catch weights, calculated times when to challenge opponents and just fight mayweather (even at a loss of negotiation) "for the people." I mean being a community leader, it is not "all about the money." So I think he needs to grow a sac and take some fights and take a stand without Arum in his ear. That is the problem I have with manny. He is seen so differently than Floyd but really they are the same: ...All about the money, the timing, the advantages. Its BS. Thats all I have to say.
Pacquaio is one of the best ever! dude has been a beast for years and has gotten better since the Morales loss. I think he has a slim chance against Mayweather but not a great one. Mayweathr is the bst boxer I've ever seen, the defense,speed, and counter punch abilty would be to much for Pac. but if the fight never happens I would blame Mayweather
Ohhhh...so we are going to go down the grammer/spelling road, in reference to Pac fans, great bet on your end considering their mastery of the English language.
For once, michiganwarrior, I completely agree with something youve said. and its compelled me to post this reply.
All of that is such bull****. Anyway- rate Pacquiao very highly, love watching him box, do think Mayweather would beat him though.
