aside from margarito's handwrap suspension lets look at the promotion for this fight
top rank and hbo have promoted this fight trying make it look as if pac wasnt focused on boxing. honestly panda doesnt buy this crap...pac has always been a gymrat and an overperformer...this should all have changed due to the many obligations hes put on himself. me personally wouldnt risk tarnishing my p4p status and hof credentials by taking a fight without training for it properly...pac certainly isnt in it for the money. he has plenty of advisors who would tell him the same thing...
but lets assume pac really isnt focused on boxing and cares more about politics and media attention...like they want us to believe
boxing fans pay amounts close to 60 bucks in a time of recession to watch these guys square off...pac is making 8 figures for this fight. u would expect him to give u ur money's worth right? well the promotors are retarded enough to try and sell this fight as if he isnt planning on doing this at all cuz they want us to think hes getting beat up in sparring and running off to congress meetings
:nonono::nonono::nonono:
aight bro
green k and apologies sent :beerchug:
lmao at people who make this about cotto (not u dj emz panda knows ure just kidding around) :lol1:. this is about top rank idiots thinking they can promote a fight by making it look like their star fighter is slacking off...who would pay for any sports with lazy athletes? thats just retarded
Thanks for the green k, I'll send some your way too.
And, for the record, I'm on board with you and this thread.
the majority of the ppl watching 24/7 are fight fans. and they average fight fan believes marg has little chance. i dont think they are staging this "pac is distracted" angle but i do believe they are over playing it, shoving it down our throats, tryin to make us believe this will be a competitive fight.
we are only seeing about 20 mins of pacs life out of an entire week. its is definately being edited to make us think what they want us to think. even with pacs trip to vegas, it was after training was done for the day and was for only 2 hours. wasnt like he skipped training for it. but they made it seem that way.
Yes, Panda, I was kidding my man.
Thanks for clearing it up for him, Di Bushbaby.

hahha
that true
but in those formentioned fights you had boxers
this is gonna be a fight with brawlers
its going to be exciting while margs chin holds up
Clottey has never been exciting so pac caried that fight
Nah, the Pac-Clottey wasn't really suppose to be excited. Nobody was saying FOTY candidate or anthing like that. Because, of the styles of each fighter.
And, I thought Floyd-Shane was exciting. Not a FOTY candidate but it was an entertaining fight.
And, this has the potential to be exciting. Just cuz of the styles both fighters bring. Both are more offensive minded and not really defensive.
Ohh man,that sig is slammin,green k,hope U back to normal soon!!
The word were looking for is potential, this can be exciting if Margarito makes it exciting, I know for a fact that PAC is throwing punches, the question is, will Maragarito.
You guys are right about PAC-Clottey, I did enjoy the PBF-Mosley because I like to watch boxing a clinic, but it wasn't exciting for the people who paid, me I went to the bar so I was extra happy.
Thanks Bushbaby, you still got room for more bets, I want Martinez.
Is it me or is Pac looking less ripped than usual.Thats why im buying it Margs looks like a Beast and Manny looks like a jr welterweight.I know im going to get the speed kills but if pacs punches dont hurt Margarito what is Pac going to do?I see Margs walking Pac down just like he did Cotto.I aint buying that there playing the public to sell the fight.All you have to do is watch the news and see Manny everywhere but the gym.
I know, this is the first camp where I have not heard them hyping him up every other day. I have never heard the Roach camp say that Manny isn't at 110% and not saying he is gonna ko the dude in the first rd. It could be all fake but I doubt it, why change their strategy now? Pac doesn't look focused and his political obligations seem to be distracting him. Sure it could all be to make Tony look good but it also make Pac look like a hype job to the casual fight viewers who may just be tuning in to see Manny Pacquiao fight for the first time.
Like a friend is always talking Pac up to someone who hardly ever watches boxing but because of all the big talk about him, the guy decides to check out the 24/7's to see what the talk is about and he then sees Pac looking like a bum and his trainer saying they aren't impressed with his progress. You still think that guy is gonna buy the PPV? heck no, he is gonna be like man this Pac dude looks like a freakin joke....I'm gonna watch MMA.
panda aka my alt
i just see it as a sorry way for them to sell the fight. I like marg, i do. And, i like pac. plus i have been a big mike jones fan. i been on here talking about him. And, now bam bam rios and benavidez are on the card. With rigondeaux. Then i really can't wait to see this fight live. I got my ticket and is cool. I don't really focus what the media puts out there about this fight. Mainly because it is not the only fight in the card. It has other fighters that i like.
who? Mike jones? Who?
ure a dumbass without comprehensive reading skills
panda doesnt buy any of this pac being lazy bull****
watch the independent footage and pac looks as good as ever
Panda,it was sarcasm!!
Yes, Panda, I was kidding my man.
Thanks for clearing it up for him, Di Bushbaby.
Be careful what you type, PAC-Clottey was supposed to be exciting, PBF-Mosley was supposed to be exciting, the beginning of this boxing year was supposed to be exciting. All them fell flat on their face, just expect the worst and hope for the best.

....i think your worried that Tony is going to win. its going to feel like battery acid being poured on you when you see Tonys hands getting raised announcing hes the winner. All Tony is gunna do is put his fist infront of the camera and laugh at the haters.
its ok panda i understand
:banana:WAARR TOONNYY!!!!!!!:banana:
whatup backstreet boy....
panda couldnt care less unless u count me losing 2.1 million e-points over a bet
in fact if tony wins itll set up a unification fight between him and cotto...been calling for that fight for years now

Who cares????????
Its going to be an exciting fight and im already purchased it!
And im a pac hater so what?

we just have some money to waste man. i guess you are a grown-ass-man-broke in there not wanting to watch a feel-good fight.
this is far better than waiting for someone to comeback from retirement/jail time, jww fighter named khan. or some brain-ego damaged boxer.
