    He is a bantamweight. I really like him though, he's a great fighter and deserves more attention.

    all 3 should change. i feel like he will become a well known superstar if he beats the top fighters at 126... but it will be a challenge for him because his size, height and reach will no longer be an advantage and can expose his flaws making him drop in p4p rankings.

    i gives a **** what the filipinos in the phillippines think and I doubt the boxing promoters do too. they don't generate ppv buys.

    and that's why the boxing community don't consider flips form the PI boxing fans.

    Those ****ers are what made Manny's fame the way it is now. Those ****ers are the reason why PPV was invented. Those ****ers are why fights generate hype. Those ****ers can care less what a hardcore boxing fan like you posting on a forum says.

    Nonito isn't on the same level as Manny since they don't like how Nonito treated his father and that his wife passes herself like a ***** on Philippine TV the few times she was interviewed.

    End of story.

    That is an idiotic statement. Not like every Ali or Louis fans where boxing fans, probably most are your typical mainstream fans. Pretty sure what made ODLH the top draw for a decade was NOT "boxing fans". In fact, some of his fights had been reported to be 70% of ticket sales where from female fans. These are not boxing fans, just followers of him partly because of his looks and material success.

    Ali attracted authors, artists, politicians, civil rights experts, actors, etc who never noticed that Ali barely went to the body.

    Louis had a country all behind him and was a star mostly for patriotic reasons even though he dominated a generation.

    This actually says a lot about Pac because he has transcended his sports. He has allowed non boxing fans to follow him, just like Tyson, Ali, Louis, and ODLH.

    And we are talking about being a "STAR" - being a active member of ESB has nothing to do with it


    Very true, but it does not mean he has "no personality". He is not a walking billboard of himself unlike PBF, Haye and unintentionally Tyson. He has personality but it is not loud. It might be a slow burner. We wont really know until gets on the spotlight.

    BWAHAHAHA! **** off somewhere, you guys don't have clout you delusional FOB. You guys are the reason PPV was invented?! :rofl:rofl:rofl

    You guys were Manny fans since jump, the world didn't care about Manny until he beat the Golden Boy just like how he made Mayweather's ultra fame came about. Oscar De La Hoya made Manny and Mayweathers starpower rise not no ****ing Philippine FOBS, FACT.

    Your statement is false. He was already a star in the Philippines and to a good degree in Mexico BEFORE ODLH.
    The bout with Oscar made him a star beyond his country, specifically here in the US.

    WTF are you talking about? Who said ESB members made their popularity rise? Weren't we talking about fans vs manny nationalist nuthuggers here? Quit assuming **** and reread my posts. Let me guess, english is not your first language?

    And all that blah blah blah you said about ALi fans, and ODLH fans only proves my point. They are not boxing fans more than Ali or ODLH fans just like how it is with Manny fans vs. Boxing fans. When Manny retires, will they continue to avidly watch boxing? No?

    Point awared to me. Stop talking now or else it'll be a blowout.

    I was referring to casual fans in general. And funny you resort to insults, because as far as I know Filipinos live in the Philippines, and not living on boats. Casual fans are the reason PPV was invented, and casual fans include the likes of Filipino fans.

    Filipinos have been Manny fans ever since he won his first title at age 19. The Philippines have a show called Blow-by-Blow which covers amateur boxers there. OLDH made Manny into the PPV star he is now, but in no way have the Filipinos jumped on the bandwagon after OLDH. Heck, they didn't even know about OLDH until after the fight. All they know is that when Manny has a man opposite him in the ring, he's going down.

    Stop commenting on things you don't understand you ignorant colonial.

    Did not say he is Oscar down to the tee. I said he is somewhat similar. Kid moved to the U.S. started Boxing there to get out of trouble.Has a father for a coach.later they have problems with a over demanding strict father.Left hook artist, annoying accent.Talks too much, loves to talk infront of the camera.Worse of all, Americanized, not humble and an attention seeker.

    What are you 12yo? Why are you so angry?
    Have you even read the point of the thread. We are talking about having mainstream power like PBF and Pac.

    Who cares of Pac have a lot of non true boxing fans. That is EXACTLY what Donaire needs and that is what we are talking about numbnuts.

    And what is up with the "score" for you? LOL. Are you really that juvenile?

    well you should make that clear in your argument. It's ok though, english is a hard language to learn.

    But the philippines don't generate PPV buys so your argument there gets shut down. Casual fans from america and other 1st world countries yes, but the PI? NO. You guys steal that **** and have 4000+ people watch it on a projector at an outside venue somewhere. Don't lie, we've seen it been posted on here before.

    You prove my point again, you guys are MANNY FANS, not boxing fans. If you were boxing fans, you would KNOW WHO THE **** OLDH IS! :rofl:rofl:rofl

    What are you trying to prove here? That you don't understand the English language? You should seriously stop replying.

    Here's my original post that got your panties all tangled up. Reread it please and understand this time.
