    just saying that he is not just a high school level guy. There are a lot of so called "diploma" courses. Heck, there are even diplomas for sale even if you never finished college! Money talks, I agree. Look at Estrada.

      Estrada got betrayed by Chavit Singson the moment the Philippines want him out. I believe he would do the same thing to Pacquiao.

            I agree with you here. I feel similarly for Mayweather. No offense to any of the filipino people on these boards but **** that election, i just want to see him fight. Mayweather can silence a ton of people and cement his legacy with wins over Mosley and Pac.
            Pac can cement his with the same.
            So hopefully these men can make it happen, instead of having all of us argue for the next 100 years about who truly was THE best of this era.

                Bob Arum and Freedie Roach won't let Pac walk away that easy even if he wins the election its to much money out there for him to just walk away

                    I gotta admit, i'm starting to lose respect for Pacquiao.

                    I became his fan primarily because he was such a warrior.. I took notice of his heart immediately and admired his complete lack of fear in the ring and NEVER backing down.. I'd never seen anyone with as much fight as him, and because of the fights he took and the fighters he beat, he was cementing his place in world history as an upstanding and honorable Filipino.

                    But for some reason he just seems to not want to fight Floyd.. and I don't get it.. come on Manny..

                    Why can't he see that Floyd for him represents Immortality.. and with blood testing erases all doubts and questions about his career. If he takes the tests and beats Floyd, nobody will ever skip Manny when they talk about the legends of boxing.. but he's gonna pass that up to be a congressman in a backwater province? What is he gonna accomplish that a real politician can't? Why is he wasting his prime years?

                    This is madness

                      IMHO after the comment from PAC I had this feeling he will lose big on the coming election...
