The Casual fan believes Pac is on something or is hiding somethin

[Clyde Barrow]

I forgot to mention don't hate on the truth to the *******S.
How could anyone say it doesn't matter what people think?
and why would you not believe ?
thes Pac fans are becoming more and more ridiculous and super defensive ....also the questioning of the casual fan should not include Pinoys because they have stated numerous times that Pac is some sore of god in that country.

I happen to like Floyd mate.

Question remains though, if you know you're speaking to a casual fan, why the fuck would you be swayed by their opinions? And swayed enough to assume anyone who questions that foolish **** of being Filipinos and/or Pac stans?

I challenge the fans in here to do what I did. Simply out of curiosity I have asked a few people at work and a few associates(none of my friends because most know boxing). I asked 10 people what they felt about the whole Mayweather vs Pacquiao Drama.
1 said he didnt know anything about it.
6 said Pac is on steroids.
3 said Pac is hiding something.
I mean it is interesting when you see the perspectives of people that are not hardcore fans.
They are the majority. Not to say that their opinion does anything to the fighters or even the eventual payday they will get(because I feel eventually they will fight). But it is interesting to see what the people are thinking.
I challenge the fans in here to do what I did and discuss.

To the casual fan, Manny is giving the perception that he is hiding something. Thats a fact.

You know your half right but your giving a hardcore fans perspective. Like I said Im not here to bash or defend either fighter. This was about the casual fans opinion and the opinion you posted is hardly that.

I actually thought the casual fan was against Pac only to be surprised that a lot of them are tired of Floyd's arrogance. The tide is turning to Manny's side. Even Vegas has him as the favorite which I didn't think would happen. The ones in the denial faze are the Mayweather fans who think their fighter is the best. Shouting louder doesn't make more people believe you.

I see everyone here has something bad to say about casual fans. Fact is, casual fans make up for 75-80% of the PPVs. So what they think does matter. The fact that Pacquiao and steroids have been in the same sentence for some time now, this isn't good at all.

[IronFistKilla]

Shut the **** up about "*******S" you goon. You are obsessed with them.

Dude, you need to grow up and stop being so definsive of your Pinoy Goddess, ****** bakla Pak-Yow.

Take off your ****** Manny speedos, remove the ****** Manny ***** and act like you got sense. After ****** Manny retires what will the Pinoys have???

Silence.

On another note I took a poll of myself and all 1 of me agree that the current political climate in Malaysia could easily be rectified by simply ********ically voting in a better leader.

Of course I have no idea what the political climate in Malaysia is outside of what I saw in the new Rambo movie.

I think you are right. Anybody who hears that a professional athletes is unwilling to subject himself to repeated, random testing is going to think that he has something to hide. It is in our nature to think this. So, I am not surprised a casual fan would think this. What is more telling is how many diehard boxing fans, but just Pac fans in passing, are starting to put a big ? next to his name. Even if you like him, it's hard to reconcile his actions with his words, especially if you are, or were, an athlete who knows the deal.

Congradulations you've confirmed the ignorance of those who know nothing on the subject. Keep up the solid field research!

You know what Mr Sarcasm. Get the majority to have an majority opinion on something and watch the damage it can create. Our history has proven that, you need not be right, and I am in no way condoning it but it is what it is. Like I said discuss without ignorance.
Example: Hitler was not right.
Oppression of Black Americans was not right and we can go on and on. Majority are sometimes ignorant but can do damage.

You know what even though your points are made with sarcasm you might be right.
You see Im not a hugger so I can see that, Im not all defensive about Pac or Floyd, just putting the truth out gets people all riled up like a pit bull smacked in the ass.

Casuals fans is good for our sport, but they are not always right. IMO neither are us ahrd core fans, I;m not going to lie, I have some bias and we all do. Even writers do because as humans, we all choose things that our hearts like if not our minds.

At world level 2 lbs can make a difference between a win or not. 3 inches in reach, 5% in speed. Even with all this knowledge, we can never really tell how 12 rounds end up.

Maybe we can guess a winner, but not at the exact time of KO or how every 30 secs of a round will go.

That's why I'm a fan of boxing. Months of wait and analysis, and I really don't know what will happen

80% of PPV does not equate to knowledge my friend. It equates to money
