    you only have to scout the internet and look for boxing related articles and they're all unanimous in saying that Pacquiao is the better face of boxing.
    Otherwise Nike would have chosen floyd!

    maintream fans don't like ****y, trash talking bling, even he is the slickest boxer in the planet! and it's this people you want to win if you want boxing to survive!

      The reason that boxing has hit mainstream popularity today is because of Pacquiao.

        Hate to break it to you, but boxing is hardly a mainstream sport.

          I think a Pacquiao win could lead to a Pac-Mosley and Pac-Fury/Williams fight

          Meanwhile a PBF win could lead to a PBF-Mosley and PBF Williams fight.

          However, the second possibility is doubtfull, PBF will surely avoid Mosley and Williams to preserve his "0", therefore, I voted for a Pac victory to be more fruitful for boxing in general.

          Finally, a Pac-PBF rematch and deciding fight could also be a possibility which may extend this exciting saga of boxing for at least 2 more years.

              Burner is probably better for boxing than either guy. He really keeps everyone interested! >>>>>Carnivore/Horus.

                although i don't see it happening...a pacquiao win would be better..although he might leave the sport for politics, his style draws more fans to watch his highly entertaining fights...most people that watch floyd really enjoy the sweet science of "hit and not get hit" or they want to witness his "0" go.

                  I don't know how old you are, but it used to be, especially in the 70s and 80s (can't attest before that) and it's coming back mostly due to Pacquiao. **** I remember seeing Hagler, Hearns and Leonard in all kinds of TV commercials.

                    Y'all are trippin' if you chose Mo**ey Mayweather to make it better for boxing because PAC's thinking of retiring.

                    Well, Mo**ey Mayweather might just do the same and cash out after the PAC fight. I mean, we already know he's a chicken ****, so there's a good chance we're not gonna see the fights we want him in.
