Why do people hate Manny Pacquiao?

Manny is one of the legit p4p greatest ever. Grab your tissue or shirt an get over it. Hes solidified

 

Mexicans know that Mexico's always got fighters coming up though. How many filipino's do you see oming through after PacMan?

 

Yeah, then he just started to ask for far more money than he deserved.

Manny wanted nor wants any part in a fight with Mayweather.

 

Ha. Well any feelings toward Pac are tempered by that. He may not be an evil guy on an individual level.

My feelings are more towards his fans and Boxing media/journalists.

 

:huh Why'd you quote my post with this reply? Doesn't make any sense....

 

simple answer A: his fans B: refused to prove he wasn't roiding,

 

IMO, its due to his pathetic, ignorant fans...I know I'm not the only one that shares this opinion but Manny has the worst fans in sports...Bar none!:-(

 

I don't hate manny but I do hate that buoboy or whatever the fat fks called

 

Why, sw? Buoboy's just Manny's loyal friend...wants nothing from him.

 

Think that 'n Pac's advisors is where the problem lies, bhs

 

that isn't the point though. the fact is, manny pacquiao handing serious defeats to mexican and mexican american fighters, legends and otherwise, is reason enough for many, not all, mexican fans to dislike the guy.

 

No, Bald-head, it's a ****in' gem..... of ad hominem, name-calling drivel.


Lets break it down. First, you start with the namecalling

Then, you follow up with "

I would never claim to be an expert, but I've been following the sport fairly closely since before you were born, so that's hardly the "flat out truth"

Next, another personal insult (in lieu of any actual support for your position.

It's a FACT that his demand was unusual. He never made any such request before. That makes it not just unusual, but unprecedented.

Since you simply (and slanderously) allude to a string of lies without specification, I have to ignore this.

Neither 1. nor 2. has the slightest relevance here. Regarding 1, requests are fine. Floyd made a DEMAND.

Regarding 2, this is a meaningless and irrelevant statement.

More irrelevant red-herrings !

Neither of the above-mentioned changes came about as a result of a boxer making them a deal-breaker in agreeing to a fight as Floyd has done with the Pac fight.

Rather, both changes came about as a result of deliberations by the BOXING AUTHORITIES, the proper avenue for such requests. Had Floyd been serious and sincere about his crusade to "clean up the sport" then he would have pursued his goals through the proper avenues, the Boxing Commissions.

There you go again with the name-calling and hor****. "lie"

Are you smoking (bad) crack tonight ? Show me with specificity this "lie."

It's not relevant that Floyd is not the first to ask for these tests.
What IS relevant here is that the first time he requested such test was when he faced the prospect of fighting Pac. Coincidence ?

Fine. But Floyd is not the ombudsman and overseer of the sport. If he has an idea that might improve things, he should have taken it to those who govern the sport. And he would have had a sight more cred on the issue if he had maintained it from the outset, and not simply dreamed it up when his career path crossed Pac's.

This statement alone tells us pretty much all we need to know regarding your take here, Slick.

Again, these unspecified lies. Hard to respond to.

This is patently NOT a fact. It is only such in your mind.
The nothing-to-hide chestnut is used all the time and unfoundedly by the same usual suspects. Why can't I search your house or car or body cavities on my suspicions ? If you've got nothing to hide, what's the big deal ?

Already dealt with in previous paragraph.

You don't seem to understand that some fighters might refuse to be dictated to. They might see it as arrogance. Or mindgames.


The exact same argument could be made in reverse re Floyd. No fighter turns down the richest purse in his career just because the opponent wants to let the boxing commission decide what tests are appropriate.

The fact that OSDTs have proven so ineffective in rooting out Olympic cheats, coupled with the fact that the boxing commissions do currently have their own tests, tells us that Floyd's original demand was FAR from reasonable.

That sound right passionate, BHS.

However, Floyd's noble crusade would have had a sight more credibility had it come somewhat earlier in the man's career.

Again, you're off the mark, Slick. A close reading of our posts makes evident where the bias lies.

I have picked against Pac in his fights with Oscar, Hatton and Cotto.

I have argued before the Cotto fight that Pac should have left the weight at 147 rather than demanding a one pound advantage. I have argued that a belt should never be at stake in a catchweight bout.

You, on the other hand, have never posted anything on this topic that might differentiate you from the hordes of other *****s in the GF.

I don't think it's even a controversial position in the boxing world at this point that Floyd avoided/ducked Pac in 09/10.

 

I think some of you are forgetting that the *******s have to believe this idiocy they say...if they don't believe this nonsense it means their national hero/cultural identity ran away from drug tests...

 

the irony.... But I guess you think guys like Hagler, Leonard, Holmes, and a slew of other boxers who think floyd did this to avoid the fight, are *******s, right?

 

Pretty much if you subtract all the Pinoy/*******s spamming the internet you're left with like a 95% majority that thinks Pacquiao was suspicious as hell for ducking better testing.
