I fell asleep before I got to watch it or record it, but I'm going to assume Manny was just Manny.

Originally posted by Bierstadt View PostOf course he is, I'm not challenging that. He's immensely popular in his own country, but to take over the hearts of fans on the other side of the ocean you need to be an interesting person, not just a good athlete in such a (unfortunately currently) niche sport of boxing. He has a heck of a background story, but he can't tell it. There is only so much a 24/7 narrator can say for you, there comes a point when you need to speak up and show your personality.
those who would have liked boxing if manny was more "interesting" aren't boxing fans at all.

When are we gonna have a charismatic, articulate boxer to hype the sport in the mainstream media?
I know there's some Long time Pinoy American who speak Fluent English in his Entourage. They could at Least Practice him before the show. Maybe ask him in Fluent english then coach him how to answer it.
I watched it but I'm not really paying attention to it after I heard the few question that Kimmel ask where Manny struggle to answer. I'm so nervous for Pac that I'm sweating myself. I dont know if I have the courage to see the replay.

Donaire is one articulate speaker. I knew him myself. Unfortunately Americans not interested on the Lower weight fighters below 140 lbs. Wait till Donaire Reach the Feather/sFW weight class, If he become succesful there then he'll be an interesting to be crossover to the mainstream.
