Pacquiao is more known in mexico than any other mexican fighters

That's false...He must be a casual fan.

Ask him if he knows who Julio Ceasar Chavez is, if he says no about him then....

Every Mexican I know knows who Barrera, Morales, and Marquez are..
the reason they know many Pacquiao is because of his fights with them.
Your conversation sounds made up anyway.. & even if it was true, how does
that prove Pacquiao is better known in Mexico?
TS is an idiot.

GTR says:
u know juan manuel marquez?
boxing
Eduardo Le�n says:
no who is him?
GTR says:
the best mexican boxer right now
u know erik morales?
marco antonio barrera?
Eduardo Le�n says:
phillipino is the best I don'y remenber his name
GTR says:
Manny Pacquiao!
Eduardo Le�n says:
that is the best

I would think that local mexicans would KNOW their fighters but... i was wrong.

So because one person doesn't know, the rest of the Mexicans are the same??

You would get those same answers asking any CASUAL boxing fan. Dont matter if he's mexican, black, asian, etc...

After Filipinos, Manny's second largest fan base is Mexican. Every time he goes to Mexico he gets swarmed by Mexicans wanting an autograph or a picture. Manny is good friends with Morales and Barrera so they showed him the ropes of Mexican nightlife.

A lot of Mexicans I've talked to think Pac came straight out of DBZ. Mexicans know how to appreciate a blood and guts fighter like Pac.

guy is making it up.

how can someone know pacquiao and not know marquez , barrera and morales?

the only reason pacquiao is known in mexico (and america) is because of marquez , barrera and morales.
