    Filipino boxing fans.

    You can't stereotype all filipinos that our favorite figther is Manny Pacquiao.

    Of course there is a strong attachment to the guy. But me watching boxing did not start and will not end with Pacquiao.

    personally my favorite boxer of all time is the ''Golden Boy'' Oscar De La Hoya.

    damn that guy is a legend. Prime Oscar would have beaten pacman. But not by KO for sure.

    True. Most of people here generalize all filipino as die hard pacfans which is not the case. I'll tell you im a pacfan at the same time, a floyd fan. Im a fan of both. Nationality is not the reason to be bias.

          And if Manny has brought more fans into boxing that were not fans before...I consider that a good thing.

                I agree-not all people of a race should be lumped in,but it seems a majority have tarnished the minority here. Nonetheless,I choose to meet individuals,not nationalities- I don't give a damn where you come from,but if people mainly like a fighter because of personal reasons such as race-they simply are not boxing fans.
                The problem with some of Manny's fans are they are obsessed with him to the point where they ignore whats going on with boxing and believe that when Manny retires,then boxing dies....he's a great fighter,but the sport doesn't end with him.

                  100% filipino here.

                  and I 100% agree with you.

                  I don't even like Pac that much. but I really like his exciting style in the ring.

                  sure as a Filipino I like the guy for bringing pride to our nation.

                  but i am also a genuine boxing fan. And I don't really see boxing dying with pacman's retirement.

                  #1 is still De La Hoya! loved those one-two bombs and the textbook combo's.
