I'm confused. :thinking:
Haha, sorry, I meant to type "33." And yes, I did edit my first post.
To clear the confusion, I thought he was going to be 33 and then -EAGLE- corrected me because he's going to be 32. :)
Po po kuptoj, do me prit deri sa te vjeterohet Pacquiao, po me gjith se edhe Mayweather eshte 33 vjeqar, edhe ai po plaket ngadal.
Po, por Pacquiao asht ken en shume luftna.
Miguel is about to be seen on San Mig commercials....many pinoys like him too...good for him
That's great for him. He deserves it. He reminds me of a throw back fighter.
no problems bro :D he's still young isn't he haha :D
Yeah, true but his years as a boxer are numbered now.
Kjo eshte arsyeja pse Mayweather pret e nuk po neshet me Pacquiao.
Has Pacquiao been arrested? No so shut the hell up with your retardness. Can you show me pics of Pacquiao from TMZ? I sure can of Floyd:

WBC, WBA and IBF are equals. I Think WBC get more publicity and slightly more popular.
WBO is now a bit recognized but still below those 3.
*This is not about righteousness or the most politically correct or anything like that.
Yeah, the WBC seems to be the most popular one.
What about the Ring magazine title?
I'm not a Pinoy, but I HIGHLY respect Floyd's ring IQ. I believe he is the most skilled boxer to ever put on gloves and we'll probably never see another boxer in our lifetime like him... but I just don't respect the way he acts out of the ring.
Always gotta get racial huh Waz
But it mostly because all of those fights were in the lower weight, the highest being Ward-Gatti at 140 and there arent many blacks at those weight, let alone great blacks
PLus Corales is black:greddy2:
Sorry to break it to you but he's not. I knew he wasn't black but to make sure, I looked it up and his father is Colombian and his mother is Mexican. :)
:lol1: at people laughing at Manny's English. :nonono: He speaks better English than most of the Mayweather family. Obviously that interview was nothing special so of course he wouldn't care about sounding right. Obviously he doesn't have the best English in the world either.
You guys make me laugh.
The thing is they are the money makers of boxing not the few hardcore boxingfans.
Exactly. They're the ones that pay the fighters, not the "few" hardcore fans, as you said.
Exactly. HBO and Top Rank are 1000X more concerned with what the casual/general sports fan thinks about the fight than what a relative handful of non-PPV purchasers do. Manny is at that Tyson level where it doesn't matter who he fights, it's always a must-see event.
Great point. They could care less what the hardcore fans think because they're not many of them. At the end of the day, the casual fan has more impact on a fighters legacy than the hardcore fan.
To the untrained eye...a resume that looks like this:
De La Hoya
Hatton
Cotto
Clottey
Margarito
Mosley
looks great!
No Barrera? Morales? Marquez? :nonono:
I don't get that, please explain.
It's true though, casual fans make up 90% of the PPVs? Only a guess, but you can't expect hardcore fans not to be upset with Pacquiao's decision to face Mosley.
Me, no need for me to complain. Just don't plan to buy it, simple.
Well, I believe that the casual fans have the biggest impact on a fighters career when it's all set and done, legacy wise and financial wise. Financially, we all know the most PPV numbers are from casual fans so that's set. Legacy, if it was for the hardcore fans, no boxer would ever get on the boxing hall of fame but be accused of ducking and cherry picking. It's rare that you see hardcore boxing fans give any credit to a fighter. Casual fans? Of course. They are the ones who give all the credit and praise the fighter.
I wonder who had better attendance in Mosley's and Marquez's last fight? I know Marquez did something like under 5 K but I wonder how Mosley did. I'm not trying to sound like a smart ass but I would like to know. Maybe that had to do something with Arum not wanting to may Marquez that much.
lol na i dont even no he is, but now i remember since natas posted tnat gif lol...........
I thought you were a boxing fan. How could you not know who Pirog is?! :no:
Why these threads? Pacquiao loses every fantasy fight.
And plus, Gatti had been in so many wars and had nothing left. Pacquiao ain't no Gatti my friend so it's easy to look good against Gatti, especially late in his career after the trilogy with Ward.
So who the f*ck do you want Pacquiao to face? Huh? If he didn't face them, everyone would be calling him a ducker. The f*cking stupidity in this forum has reached it's highest point. I come here to read some good, decent thread but instead, I have to read this bull****.
Well, most of us watch the fight in ****ty ass streams so we're not really helping the fighters with their salaries.
Also, we are of course entitled to voice our opinions but why with such heat and hatred of fighters? That's what doesn't make sense here.
Are they forcing you to pay? Do you think each member on this message board pays all PPVs? Have you seen the millions of threads asking for streams during fights?
