Manny Pacquiao embraced by Coporate America…

HP looking to rip Manny off too... damn

Manny just sounds so gay in those commercials lol. I love the guy though. Impressive that he's so popular in America considering he's a little Asian guy that speaks broken English. Say what you want to say about Floyd, the fact that he's American helps a lot for his popularity. We're patriotic as hell. It's why we hate soccer until the world cup rolls around. "MILLIONS OF HITS!"

hewlett-pactard very appropriate, indeed. :haha: :bigeyes:

http://thyblackman.com/2011/08/05/manny-pacquiao-embraced-by-coporate-america/ Manny Pacquiao embraced by Coporate America… August 5, 2011 by Staff (ThyBlackMan.com) It has become increasingly clear that Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao is rapidly becoming a worldwide phenomenon and not just the boxing icon that he has been for a number of years. To demonstrate the value advertisers now place on him Manny Pacquiao recently signed a lucrative deal with computer giant Hewlett-Packard (HP). HP is going all out with its TouchPad to go head to head against Apple Computers iPad 2. Manny Pacquiao will be pushing TouchPad along with the HP Veer Smartphone as well as other Hewlett-Packard products. Pacquiao will receive a reported one million dollars a year for three years as part of the deal. Much more importantly for Manny Pacquiao there are reports that he will receive a percentage of every HP product he promotes. In addition Manny’s picture will be on every box of HP chips. The huge ad campaign by Hewlett Packard is already underway. The advertising will be on television, print ads, billboards and radio. This will be Pacquiao’s first endorsement that goes global and it is hoped by team Pacquiao that there will be many more. The fact that HP is using Manny Pacquiao to push their product line has a lot to say about his public persona and also makes a statement about boxing being an international sport with international reach. The benefits to Manny Pacquiao for the Hewlett-Packard deal are enormous. It adds credibility to the Pacquiao brand. And let’s face reality, no matter how high the Pay Per View numbers are in the U.S.A., fighters are not well known to the mainstream. The HP ads go a long way towards introducing Manny Pacquiao to the general public in America. There is a lot of prestige for Pacquiao in doing business with a company as huge and as well respected as Hewlett-Packard. In corporate America it is all about image and putting a positive spin on that image. Part of the benefit for Manny Pacquiao is the added name recognition he will receive and how that will translate into added PPV buys for his future fights. It is a win, win situation for Hewlett-Packard, Manny Pacquiao and for the sport of boxing. Great news for Pacman's Fans but it will makes the jealous and haters hates more and jealous more. Anyway there's nothing they can do. Manny Pacquiao will continue his greatness.

Who is sucking up to pacquiao?.. Just not hating and actually appreciating the rise of a boy that had nothing to a man that was a far cry from what anyone thought he could become... The real question is why do people hate on that? I just happen to re post an article from a BLACK OWNED website who wrote an article about Pacquiao's success ...It is not my words.. To be serious, and honest, I think all the hate for Pacquiao started when he refused OST. I'm not sure if you are American or not? But in America whenever someone refuses a test, rather it be a Polygraph, DNA for paternity, or a drug test they are automatically seen as guilty. I would actually rate Pacquiao higher than Mayweather and like him more if he would have agreed to OST. But now you guys wanna say well he did agree to OST, yea 3 years later, what took so long?

yea right.... We are both unbiased observers with no affinity to either fighter... :angel:

rolltide trying to convince himself that he is not is actually not fooling anybody. yea right....

Dude, no body ever gave Jay Z or Lebron James any props for being in a HP video... And why do Pactards hate anyone who doesn't suck up to Pacquiao... Examples... Max Kellerman - Pactards use to love Max Kellerman when he use to bash Floyd, and then when he started to call Pacquiao out on cherry picking, all of a sudden he didn't know about boxing and he was just a Pacquiao hater. Brian Kenny - Pactards use to ADORE Brian Kenny when he use to blast Mayweather, but then when he started to question rather Pacquiao was on steroids, Pactards hated Kenny, they said that white Americans are always trying to bring down the Asian people. ESPN - When ESPN called Mayweather a coward Pactards had a orgasm, but then when ESPN took Pacquiao off the P4P ranking as number 1, you guys sent emails crying and whining so they put him back as #1.

If you want any proof, you should go look at OLDER videos of these guys, and then look at the ones when they criticize Pacquiao....SHOCKING DIFFERENCES.

Hey man Lenovo makes excellent, sturdy laptops... :( I have a lenovo lap top and I love it. I also use an HP in the office that is several years old.. I actually like that hp, it is the only computer I have not had problems with while the others have been messed up because employees use it for other ish and get viruses.. Not saying it is a good product but the one I have had experience with, I would buy again.

In boxingscene..........It's either you're a Flomo or a Pactard. Those who doesn't realize this is a noob. :D rolltide trying to convince himself that he is not is actually not fooling anybody.

HP is a premiere brand name in computers. If it was Acer, Lenovo or e-machines then I would be embarrassed. Hey man Lenovo makes excellent, sturdy laptops... :(

smh this dude thinks everybody is a flomo This guy thinks that the people who took their time to post and bash HP did it because Manny pacquiao had nothing to do with their post...

Jay z, Lebron James etc. are amongst those that endorse HP... but since Pacquiao now endorses it flomos now hating HP.. can you say expected. smh this dude thinks everybody is a flomo

Hp does suck though dude, if it was Apple (you know the Ipod company) maybe I would be impressed. Jay z, Lebron James etc. are amongst those that endorse HP... but since Pacquiao now endorses it flomos now hating HP.. can you say expected.

Hp does suck though dude, if it was Apple (you know the Ipod company) maybe I would be impressed. Apple all marketing, prouduct not the best. HP are not that great though.

Always gotta have a hater in the mix with nothing better to say... Yeah because the stock market is doing so well you gotta single out HP. Everybody took a big hit. Hp does suck though dude, if it was Apple (you know the Ipod company) maybe I would be impressed.

The Pacman's ad campaign is a huge success already! http://www.thestreet.com/story/11210202/1/hewlett-packard-stock-hits-new-52-week-low-hpq.html They even hide his face throughout the entire commercial because they don't want to scare the small children in the room.

Pacquiao is very marketable, a good public image, humble, likeable personality, and is in entertaining fights, can even do comedy. A great icon to promote your product.

Manny Pacquiao's pic in every chip? WTF......LOL!!!! They should change the name to Hewlett-Packtard. :D Good one...LOL
