    LOL... he says "deal with it" as if that is gonna upset anyone.

    Remind me again where the shame is to be remembered as one of the best fighters in your era?

    I think Floyd will be OK. Ten years p4p. three years #1. five titles. 39-0. $100 million plus. First ballot HoF.

    That's fine.

      Then explain why Manny can't do mainstream numbers.

        If you believe this...you don't enjoy boxing.

        That's for real.






        The only reason you're on Manny's stick at all is fuel for your obsession with detracting from Floyd Jr.

        You've previously showed disregard for Pac in other guises.

          LOL @ this thread, the thread maker, and the droves of ignorant posters who voted for Manny.

            Tunney is just the head of the ABF brigade.



            Anything. But. Floyd.

              You mean in the US? He doesn't get the recognition from the mainstream American sports media because he's a Filipino.

              Floyd's numbers have had to do with the popularity of his opponents, De La Hoya and Hatton! His fight with Baldomir didn't do well in terms of viewers...

              But boxing is a worldwide sport, and Pacman is very popular in the Phillipines, and well-known in Mexico, Japan, Thialand, etc.

              Everybody in the Phillipines who was able to, was watching last night.

                There's a reason why almost all of manny's fights are in the USA. Not in mexico. or in the Phlippines. Or Thailand. Or japan. But here in the USA.

                Because this is the market that matters.

                BTW, other foreign fighters have been able to establish cross-over appeal....including guys who don't even speak the language.

                  Still doesn't mean the rest of the world isn't watching, so I guess it doesn't really matter whose market matters the most. Thats just a business edge argument designed to stray the mind from what matters most,

                  what goes on in the ring.


                  Pacquiao will be remembered as a greater fighter than Mayweather despite what your consumer driven mind is led to think.

                    Check the poll results.

                    You overestimate Floyd's popularity. The media is very positive about him, but people who watch him fight are turned off from boxing.

                    Anyone who watches Pacquiao becomes a fan.

                      Who is from the UK, who people from the United States historcally dislike, and has fought 4 times in the United States, compared to Manny's 14 fights in the United States.
