The question now is, who can follow Manny's footsteps after he retires? Are there any good role models out there who are also great boxers?
Manny Pacquiao is great for the sport of boxing!

yea he is but i feel that someone has to be able to actually compete against him for 12 rounds right now, just to make it interesting because he is outta this world right now, itll probably happen as it always does with boxing but who knows..Comment

Some people say boxing is a "dying" sport, but like Jim Lampley says it's just been declining in the US. It seems to me that just about every casual sports fan on the planet knows who Manny Pacquiao is!
I remember when some people called De La Hoya vs. Mayweather "the fight to save boxing", but I felt that was ridiculous, since I could hardly stay awake watching it...
But everybody who saw Manny Pacquiao fight Oscar was impressed!It left an impression in their minds, something like "this is someone I want to watch again". And Manny's brutal KO of the four-year Ring champion at light welterweight, Ricky Hatton, must have left people with a similar feeling about Pacquiao as they had about Mike Tyson in the late 80s. People who are not serious boxing fans, in the same sense as we on boxingscene are, they ARE EXCITED about this guy and want to know when Manny's next fight is!
Manny is good forthe sport but so are Floyd, and countless others, like Tyson fury, kovalev, and maidana.
And please, Manny fans are ridiculous, you can brag about that win all you want, every truly knowlegeable fan on earth knows a prime Oscar sons him and Floyd on the same night, but by all means continue to speak about that win like it's some amazing accomplishment.Comment

Last night it showed how universal Pac's fanbase is, and even after getting KTFO the racists flowmos who tried to make fun of him the ones who focus on undefeated records and materialism, were embarrassed, because you cannot break Pac he has something that Floyd wished he could have and something money can;t by Love and respect, Floyd will never get what Pac has and it makes him jealous.
Roy jones jr said it best, too bad Pacman is past his prime we need another goofy action fighter to carry the throne because Floyd killed boxing and than road Pacs coattails when he came out of retirement.

Manny beat a shell of the real DLH and that win is anything but credible, and don't tell me who is a real fan and who isn't that's my job.
