    Can someone explain to me how you can be a fan of the sport of boxing but not Manny Pacquiao. I have read this kind of comment in several threads but I do not understand how it is possible.

    You can't be a fan of boxing and not a fan of Manny Pacquiao. He is everything good about boxing.

    This happens when their idol is beat up by Manny. OR their idol's stature is overshadowed by Manny. Just my opinion.

    Because he takes steroids and fights guys who are past their primes at catchweights.

    1 in 5 people will experience mental illness in any one year.

    You don't need any other explanation than that.

    Because they have their own favorites, and Pac either beat them, cant get a fight with him or is just plain jealous. Others dont hate him, they just dont care.

    You can be a fan of any sport but you dont have to be a fan of every player. I guess one can also say the same for being fan of music but not a fan of one of the greatest bands/singers.

    Haters, well thats another story, people hates for various reason.

    Ding Ding Ding, we have a winner!! This the true answer!!

    All the other post above stating that when you love boxing you have to be a fan of Pac or Floyd = *******S + *****S!!

    I like boxing, I like Pac fighting, but I'm not regarding myself a fan nor a hater and I won't shed a tear if he loses :good

    Plain and simple!!

    Its is very simple indeed and I dont understand why people bother to start such thread.

    Im a pac fan but I dont expect all my friends to follow, infact I dont give a flying **** who they follow to be honest. Like wise I wouldnt want them shoving J Beiber or Taylor Swift down my throat.

    The real question is, Why don't YOU understand why some people aren't a fan of Manny Pacquiao? I get asked why I dislike Pac from time to time. Often times people jump to conclusions. Why can't a guy dislike a person without having someone assume he has hateful feelings? I definitely don't hate him. I just can't say I'm a fan of his. If I go to the theater I shouldn't have to watch the same movie everyone is watching. I should be given a choice. The formula works the same way with sports. While Pac is considered an Oscar winning flick, I prefer a different genre of film. I don't have to apologize for it.
