So.....manny is afraid of needles??

[gopi11]

Do you think this fight will happen?

It will happen, there's too much money involved for this fight not to happen. They don't even know how to divvy up the loot because it will be insanely ginormous!

Superstitions, maybe... Pacman trypanophobic? I don't think so...


I think this just turned into a pissing contest, no more, no less. The fight will happen, both Pacman and Floyd will take this random drug test, the fight will happen on March 13, and Larry, you're still clueless...

True story...

For the umpteenth time, Pac is not afraid of needles BUT, he's the most superstitious boxer I've ever seen. The last time they took blood from him days before his fight, he lost (Morales 1).

If you were a Filipino, I'm sure you'll get to understand what superstitious beliefs means to the Pinoys, it's like a be all, end all to them, specially the athletes and gamblers. I'm sure you all know the other superstitious stuffs that Pacman religiously follows pre-fight ritual like he never fly to Vegas for his fight, instead, he rides the same SUV to Vegas, while his hangers-on rides the Pacman bus. He stays in the same room in Mandalay Bay every time leading up to his fight. He makes sure he kisses his rosary around his neck after Buboy takes it off of him. Some other superstitious beliefs for Pacman is he always kicks the lower ropes and makes a sign of the Cross just before the bell rings in the 1st round. His lunch or dinner superstitious beliefs when he has an up-and-coming fight is even more thorough and meticulous.

Here's also one thing that Pac avoids at all cost. He will never let his gloves be underneath the opponent's gloves when they touch gloves, never EVER.

At the end of the day, it's just a pissing contest for both fighters. I'm sure this fight will get itself made after the thought of how they will divvy up the money they will make hits them in the head like a boulder coming from above...

Even though I'm not a Pac fan(although I have tremendous respect for him)I feel were you're coming from.....Mexican people are extremely superstitious too!I mean so bad that I even talk smack to them and challenge them in debates just to prove them wrong.But I have to say they are to stubborn.....they actually believe no matter what you say!!

In this case though it's a little bit different, like you said, there's too much money involved not to go through with the fight

I can't believe some of the stuff I'm reading on here today. It's the online equivalent of putting your fingers in your ears and shouting "LA LA LA I'M NOT LISTENING!!" at the top of your voice.

Whether Pacquiao's using illegal performance enhancers or not remains to be seen, but providing this isn't simply a promotional ploy I don't see how Pacman can escape this maelstrom unscathed.
