Marquez-Pacquiao Purse Bid Set For 6/18

[Tha_Greatest]

Nice to see Pac earn some respect. But by now, you've seen enough Pinoy vs. Mexcan fights to know that Pinoys always come to fight just like our Mexican brothers. Mexcans and Pinoys aren't very different. Both cultures are intensely proud, brave and nationalistic and also share common ancestry and history with similar temperaments. Remember thousands of Pinoys settled in Mexico with the Spanish trade. Many of Filipino words are not spanish but aztec. Hope the trend continues and Pinoy fighters are supported in the U.S. to bring in more talent. With more and more Pinoys getting into the game and the current crop getting more exposure, I hope Pac is just the beginning. Pinoys fighters are really getting more and more respect and ranked deservedly in lue of it. Even though Pinoys have had world champs since before the 1920s, I would have to say that its about time Pinoys get showcased. A pinoy vs. Mexican match always seems a little more hot blooded to me. A JMM vs. Pac Match will be on fire. Guzman vs. Pac will be a good tough fight which anyone can win but it will not be as sizzling as Pac vs. JMM because of the heat the friction of both cultures generate. I see alot of haters hating on Pinoy fighters comming up but boxing will benifit from this new exposure of Philippine boxing.

Yeah they do, Bautista(phillipino)vs Medina just recently put on a better show than Oscar Floyd, and it was a undercard to the Oscar fight. Jimrex Jaca put a battle vs J.M Marquez, Penalosa beat down my man Daniel once De Leon, Phillipinos are warriors

how can we make this happen??

Much as majority of boxing fans want to, this fight ain't happening anytime soon. I see this fight happening ONLY IF goldenboy wins the case over arum, otherwise it will be soto-pac in october or november because that's the most beneficial for arum.
