Pinoys should enjoy pacman and his prime while they can

There will come a time that we all know happens. Alot of pinoy fans started following boxing when pacman's emergence came about after the barrera fight, and there is nothing wrong with that.
But with the flux of threads talking about "the great mexican hope" and "why cant mexican legends beat pacman"
There will come a time when a fighter will be out of his prime. Often times the signs wont be there, while someone is winning, KOing people left and right, we all hardly ever see it coming. But sometime..and in my gut i feel like it will be soon, at some point pacman will come out just like Morales did,...tired, older (fight wise) and look like he wont be all there. Some hungry young fighter will do to pacman just as he had done to barrera and morales.
You should enjoy your gloating/laughing now while you can, because as a die hard Tyson/Roy Jones fan, i will tell you right now, its one of the worst feelings in the world when it happens because you want to bieleve so bad it will never happen and your guy is the best, and with a guy like pac, a defeat in brutal fashion doesnt just damage him, but an entire country, and you had better be ready for the backlash on all your favorite internet stops when it happens. Because it happens to everyone, and you had better hope you have another boxing prospect to look at, because all this poking fun at mexicans is funny and all, but you better remember the playing field is tilted again once pacman retires, or he meets his match.
With pacs style, i just only see him going for so long until it all comes crashing down.
i get your point dude. and thats totally cool.
but...
ill tell you this in all honesty, the philippines doesnt revolve around manny pacquiao. what you read in all media reports are just pure exaggeration. so ill assure you this..."a defeat in brutal fashion" will NOT damage the entire country. that is just absurd...and amusing. if he loses, even by ko, so what? life goes on around here. we dont really care. all of this are just media hype. a lot of athletes or personalities come home from major victories abroad and they are all paraded around and meet with the president. manny pacman just gets all the media coz hes such a media darling. w/ a nice and inspiring background story. plus it helps that his victories comes with some international flavor with it.
i have been a boxing fan for a looonnng time now. and i am just proud that a pinoy is the most exciting fighter out there right now, a certified top 3 pound for pounder and he and his annoying nuthugging fans are helping the sport of boxing right now. keeping it afloat and the boxing websites too (with all the traffic and all). it all helps the sport that we love right now.
so why cant we just appreciate him right now while hes still here and at his absolute prime?
just dont mind the nuthuggers. yes they are very annoying, sometimes insulting and helps depreciate our intelligence.
as for me, i just give them a break. who was the last great pinoy champ? gabriel "flash" elorde. superfeatherweight champ from 1960-1967. someone like pacman just comes every 40 years. so lets just understand them. as more "knowledgeable" boxing fans, we should be the one who will have more patience in dealing with their kind.
the philippines has a lot to be proud of. manny "pacman" pacquiao is just icing in the cake. we may not be rich but we are a proud and freedom and peace loving people. the only true ********ic country in asia. but yeah sometimes we kick out our leaders when we want to.
but thats another story.
hey, we started that people power bloodless revolution thing that was en vogue during the late 80s. if we didnt start that maybe slovakia is still part of czechoslovakia and there will be no czech republic. hehe.
thanks and peace.

you must be hoping for it to happen but the truth is boxing is so unpredictable.
if we go by your logic then rocky marciano would of been knocked out when he was knocking dude outs...but he retired undefeated.Comment
