Why would I care about Pacquiao now? I've been hoping he'll retire and disappear, so we can focus on current fighters. No, I'm not buying this fight. We have choices.
I'd rather see fans focus on pressuring Lara to fight Andrade, for example.
Question is why would I even start a thread about a guy who I hate if I'm a floydhype fanboy?
Fans have spoken. No one is interested. What now?
im a boxing fan you dunce, who said i hate manny?

i'd be f#cking rip**** if this was on regular HBO. then i'd be paying for the license fee with my HBO sub.
**** bob arum and this fight. **** em. pacquiao is already retired as far as i am concerned. see you in canastota.
i don't blame manny for trying to extend his career and make money. while he's way past it, he still has what it takes to fight professionally and make money. the guy went belly up before the mayweather fight from all accounts, and while he's not going to have to pay for dinner for the rest of his life, he does need to consider his retirement and the wellbeing of his family. these guys can and do go broke.
Well, i hope Pacquiao fans that slated Floyd for fighting Berto will slate this fight too.
Berto wasn't a good opponent but at least people have heard of Berto and was an ex-champion.
This fight is a joke. If Pacquiao is going to be fighting these kinds of guys then he needs to retire. He either needs the dough or he's under some terrible contract with Arum to the point he can't really retire.
I never heard of the guy and I follow boxing pretty closely. I checked his record with boxrec and they have him 12 th at welterweight with no wins over anybody worth a damn. Pacquiao is on the way out and 37 years old. I don't mind him picking carefully at this point in his career but he should fight somebody better than Horn. This is his worst opponent since Algieri. It's just a slaughter and a waste of time for Pacquiao to fight Horn. Even Pacquiao can't fight a guy this bad and unknown and expect the fight to be a big seller.
idk about that, plus berto fought that fight with one arm
I think soto karass had something like 8 losses when he fought Berto including a lost to Yuri Foreman lol Who knows though man but honestly if Horn fought Berto, Id put $5 on Horn.
But either way man, I am just comparing Berto and Horn. This is no way a swipe at Floyd or Pac. I really dont care who they fight, I want to see these young fighters challenge themselves against each other and let these old timers ride off into the sunset no matter how bright or dim it is.
Hell no... I didn't watch Vargas, I haven't watched Manny's last two fights. I didn't even watch CANELO Smith live...i caught the free replay. I sure as hell ain't watching Manny Horn. Ever.
Pacs a legend, his race is run. I don't care who these fighters whose careers are over fight tbh. They're semi retired to me.
People are pissed because Pac has a bit left in the tank and could beatpst younger fighters still. But you need to remember, in boxing "wear and tear" on an older fighter means chronic trauma encephalopathy.
