the nervous of these guys..... Pac is not big as ppl think.... I was in the bank a few weeks ago, there was a group of 7 or 8 elderly white women (late 60-70's)..... Floyd came on t.v. and did you know, every last one of them knew who he was.... Granted they were saying he's a loud mouth and an ass..... What stuck me they was like young man do you know of Muhammad Ali ....... I reply yes im only 23, but he is my favorite boxer..... As they all light up simultaneously ..... They yell well Floyd is just like him you know.... If you dont want him talking so much trash beat him up....... I laugh and say exactly...... Last but not least the women obviously follow some boxing from Ali to now.... One says young fella what is the name of the Japanese guy that Floyd wanna fight......I laugh and say his is a filipino and his name is Manny Pacquiao... The big deal wasn't that they didn't know his name, but they didn't know he was filipino...... With that being said.... Him and Pinoy go hand and hand ..... So not to know his name and race in the general public , makes him not that main stream.....

Now their gonna try to make sense outta this but they cant. Floyd is by far the much bigger draw. LMFAO. After May/Mosley does 2 mill Manny will have to take a 70/30 cut and the random blood test. He should've taken the test for March 13th. Dummy!!!!!!!!!

I wrote this in another thread so I will just put it in here. I was actually 2 seperate post. Margarito and alot of guys have had headlines but they all put up sucky numbers. JMM in his very next fight will probably be on regular HBO or his PPV will do 150,000 and he only is getting that much because his name after Floyd.
With that being said, 2 things are a given now wether people want to admit it or not. 1 is that Floyd is the biggest star & money maker in the sport. Pac fans cant seriously argue against that. You just cant. The 2nd thing though is that 700,000 against an unknown name is beast stuff that wouldve never happened a couple of years ago so it shows you how big Pac is and how far the sport has come. Floyd & Pac wouldve given anything a few years ago to get 500,000 and now they will feel like bums if they get that. Thats great for boxing. **** UFC

That's just a cover up. He wasn't in the ring by himself all night now was he? alright then. And didn't Arum say that Pacquiao-Clottey would sell as much as Pacquiao-Cotto? yeah he did. Pacquiao couldn't even crack a million. Well one thing is for sure. He can forget about a 50-50 split with Mayweather that is out the window. And he has noone to blame but himself cause he quickly signed to fight Clottey to duck Mayweather!!
