I think the reason ppl hate on mayweather n are loving pac right now are as follows:
when boxing was mainly a White man sport then a great came along Of ethnic origin to the sport (joe louis, Ali) they were really good and got alot of attention and all good
now boxing has been dominated by African Americans (Tyson, lewis, rjj, pbf, list goes on etc etc) it's nothing new for a black man to be great at boxing, in comes pacquiao, who is of ethnic origin to the sport n he gets the exposure like louis, Ali etc...
In other words ppl are hating on pbf because it's nothing new for an African American to do great in boxing it is new for a filippino/asian

I can only compare this to hip hop, great black rappers all round, a great white rapper called Eminem comes along and BAM! It opens a whole new audience to rap..

Agree or Disagree?

Gayweather = Im better than Ali - Checks are better than Legacy.

Pac = 4 lineals, 7 divisional titles.

Nuff said really.

Its simple no need to complicate it.

I partially agree.

There has to be tons of new Asians following boxing because of Pac. However, I think the hate for Floyd is more based on the fact that he's a prick.

it has more to do with the styles, personality, and character.

if you switch pac and pbf right now, the african american pac would be considered as the new mini tyson, get decent air times from bet/wwe/talk shows, and backings from respected rappers (considering he would be fluent with english) while the pinoy pbf will be seen as nothing more than a whiny but skilled kid who cant even get his own countrymen to back him up.

Pac needs a handicap to win at the higher weights...Floyd doesn't.

Mayweather doesn't care how much you weigh....Manny doesnt have the skills not to care.

why has'nt floyd proved it by fighting a welterweight?

**aether** · 11-24-2009, 08:24 AM

i would still prefer a black version of pacquiao rather than an asian version of floyd.

although a trash talking asian floyd would be hilarious.
