    Amen to that brother. Floyd has make up for his performances in the ring. Mannys fights sell themselves.

      And, I did ask when has Floyd done 1.2 without Oscar. Floyd is great at promoting and he gets great numbers. But, my point was that sometimes you don't need to promote the hell out of fight. You just need 2 great stylistic match-up and the fight would sell it self.
      No biggie. I see what you're getting at. Would enjoy seeing Manny be more charismatic in their promo tours.

      I mean wouldn't you enjoy "trash" talking like this? This is what sells fights...



      I looked forward to watching them after seeing that.

        there is already a big buzz in mainstream media about this fight. heard it mentioned on espn a number of times and coworkers who i've never heard talk about boxing are talking about this fight. for what it's worth pacuiao was on jimmy kimmel before the cotto fight so he's crossing over to the mainstream already. actually around my way i don't think theres anybody who hasn't heard of manny.

            With this fight I think is being build as good guy vs bad guy. Pac- humble, polite, respectful (Good guy) vs Floyd- arrogant, disrespectful, flashy, trash talker (bad guy). See I think that is the angle they going to use. So if that is the angle they are using then Pac can't trash talk. He will not be looked as the good guy. is like the national hero vs the villain.

              Pacman's fights are exciting! That's enough as a selling point!
              He is such a little demon, even non boxing or should I say casual fans would pay money to watch him on the ring!

                pac promoting a fight means singing on talk shows, etc. so unless you want the media to be infested with more "sometimes when we touch" serenades you *****s better stfu for everyone's sakes.

                      I think so too. I think Manny would do great if he could crack jokes about Floyd through an interpreter.

                      I agree.

                      Would be awesome if he sang songs cracking on Floyd and his dad.
                      Manny would even gain a lot of Floyd fans if he could hold his own with a bit of comedic trash talking and singing.
