    Damn! Talk about people whining why Pacquiao's been liked because he's exciting!

      again, just saying, he get's too many points for just hopping around a lot and throwing a million punches. there's more to the sport than hoping and expecting a KO.

      oh and lets not go into why pac has the adoration of his fans. please, let's not.
      Who the hell hates a boxer who is "too technical"? That's like saying I hate Michael Jordan because he won 6 rings....just doesn't make sense....or just PURE HATE.

        Stop whining and just mind yo own ****e and who's fighter you root for, you can't criticize why Pac's being appreciated more by fans who want a good fight.

        ODOH Floyd stans always brag about Floyd has more PPV draw, but kept forgetting the reason why the viewers ordered PPV in the first place, to see Floyd lose. But IDGAF.

        It's you who instigated all these, not me.
        here we go again..ppl order floyds ppv to see him lose. craaaazy.. whatever, you win.

          that's all..
          Explain?

          your original question doesn't ask about other fighters. Your question gets answered, so....next question.

            LOL no one wins! It's opinions and preference.

            You whining about why people like Pac because he's exciting and suggested other boxers need more attention, is pathetic IMO.

            Like I said, there's a hidden agenda with your thread and you failed miserably with the point you wanna make across.

              i think it's more like saying "i hate san antonio because they're boring". it may not make sense to you but other people prefer offense rather than defense.

                  Getting back to this rebuttle....

                  Why do people like Lebron James? He hasn't won ****....has always failed on the biggest stages...gets paid a ton of money...yet by basketball standards...is fundamentally horrible. Yet people flock to him and pay some dam good money (82 games a year) to see him dunk on fools, hit buzzer beaters and block shots from behind....why...BECAUSE HE IS EXCITING.

                  Has nothing to do with boxing...but the comparison is similar to your reasoning about the "Exciting being the only factor"
