Paquiao is a creation of the media.

Created by media? Certainly took 15 years to do it?.........Manny worked hard and probably ****** **** to get the attention.

The media philosophy is to create images that cultivate expectations, this mental images will weak the process of resoning and then you beleive in images and not reality. take for example manny paquiao. right now everybody beleive he is the best fighter, wrong he is not. he beat an old oscar de la hoya, which by the way was more like a mummy that a boxer, but Oscar name was create it, not the boxer, as a boxer he was good but people equates the name with boxer, Manny defeat the name, and because of that now poeple beleive manny is the greatest, the hatton fight was a lucky punch that all. the only fight that will prove manny abilities was JMM, and manny LOST BOTH, they gave the victory to manny but manny lost.that leave manny as a glass boxer. now, when manny fight , floyd, cotto , Mosley or even marquez again, you will see him on the canvas. and the creation of the media will be broken.

Wow man the only fighter whos proved to be the real deal and he is now subject to media creation? hahaha i laugh at this pathetic thread.

Floyd was media creation and Pacquiao proved that.

pacquiao is a creation of his own doing forged by blood and guts versus the best featherweights of our generation (JMM; MAB & EM) ...

IMHO the tres amigos helped mold Manny to be the figther that he is now, you cant get better experience against other 3 guys in any weight...

I guess Manny has raised the bar so high by fighting in weight divisions far above his original weight class and whipping the big guys that people expects him to fight all the big name welters, and failing to do so diminishes his legacy.

Just a year ago when he was fighting at 130 and already a top 5 P4P, you would all say that Pac is crazy to even think of matching up with Hatton much less the likes of Cotto, Mosley, Mayweather and De La Hoya!

That's how great Manny is!

it was just like yesterday that a lot of boxing fans/expert thought he was too small for 130...
