    Rampage Jackson and Rashad Evans Praise Boxer Manny Pacquiao

    UFC 114 main event fighters Rampage Jackson and Rashad Evans share the same appreciation of Filipino boxer Manny “Pacman” Pacquiao that their boss Dana White does.

    “I know Pacquiao is a great fighter. He is a cool guy. I like the way he fights, and I just want to say to all my Filipino fans out there: come and watch me this Saturday. Don’t go to the restroom. Don’t even blink, put a tape in your eye. The guy is going to sleep any second,” Jackson

    “Manny is not afraid to risk it all to win, and that’s a fine line a lot of people afraid to walk that line, where they try to be so clean and they’re afraid to even take a chance, and they never take a chance and they don’t get the dramatic finishes or win,” said Evans on what makes Pacquiao so great.

    Both fighters were the center of attention in Las Vegas, and starred in a HBO 24/7 style build up show called UFC PRIMETIME on ****eTV.

    Rashad is the best boxer of the two, he's been training with boxers and I gotta feeling that he'll win tonight in a boxing style finish

          It would be media suicide if they didn't.

          It's ok for boxers to talk **** on MMA, but if someone in MMA talked **** about a boxer they would be burned, and gutted.

                Or maybe they are secure enough with themselves and their sport to give props where props is due.

                  No way dude I remember when floyd talked trash on MMA and retracted his statements... Boxing is pure sport... MMA is a sport, but is a martial art as well... lets be honest most boxers arent beating up an MMA fighter in an octagon, nor could a MMA come into the ring and only use his hands and try to win by just purely boxing... it won't happen. Give respect to people that train hard and fight hard for us lucky viewers.

                    Knock that noise off.

                    They just respect Pacquiao. Who doesn't? I honestly don't see why anyone can't like Manny.

                    Hell, I wish I could fight like him but I just can't risk that **** like he does.
