    If Pacquiao wins will he become Floyd?

    Floyd Mayweather was a superstar, in the boxing world. Since he beat De La Hoya he has become a household name to the casual sports fan. He's done dancing with the stars and WWE. If Pacquaio wins, and thats a big if, does he become big in America? His personality is nothing like Floyd. I think he is more marketable with his humbleness and what he has done for his home country. Plus he is young. Can this lead to major American sponsors and recognition?

    Nope. He's more excitin to watch, but he ain't talkative, and he speaks decent but not great English. And he ain't gonna win anyway.

        he's not marketable
        he looks like an ordinary douche bag that has no place in national TV
        just like that spanish guy from that show, he was in the weigh in..
        you know that ugly actor that was standing next to DLH, rooney is better looking than him
        people like this is are ruining TV that's why they're coming up with some new equipment so we don't have to stand it anymore

          pacquiao isnt going to appeal to mainstream america and he doesnt have a large fil-am community to rely on the way dlh or mayweather had with their respective communities. Besides, Pac seems to be looking to cash in his chips before retiring so I dont think he'll remain in the spotlight for more than a few fights anyway. I'm sure he could make it on dancing with the stars though... and probably wrestle rey mysterio in another mexico vs philippines rivalry so yeah..

              Yes, if Pacquiao wins he instantly turns black and starts throwing money.

                  Just a little comparison since most of you here have predicted a Mayweather win against Oscar that went according to expectations and writing off Pacman this early:
