lol does pac already have a facebook account???

i dont think pac belongs on a show that just showed the president of the united states of america.

he doesnt even have a facebook, twitter, or youtube page.

[succu8us]

Look It is SILLY SEASON to see people whine and ***** about American bias When what they are really upset about is not seeing their views reflected on in the media.

Does pacquiao have a facebook?
Does pacquiao have a twitter?
Does pacquiao have a youtube page?


Stop for a second and think about all the vast numbers or small media sources that would help Pacquiao resonate more with American Fans when it comes to being entertaining. However, He doesnt used them. Not my fault, it is his fault.

paquiao doesn't need youtube, facebook, tweeter, etc... because he invaded almost all sports website and even headlines famous and popular magazine, newpaper, tv etc...

Who the **** is Pacquiao?

[Monte Fisto]

Who needs Facebook when you have 60 Minutes and NIKE.

The Pretender on the other hand is too busy vacationing with his lawyers, lol. Him and his BFF, Ellerbe are trying to close a deal for those lawyer fees, hehe

last time i checked----only 1 24/7 series won an emmy---that was mayweather vs de la hoya-----remind me how many of manny vs whoever 24/7 series won anything------

floyd knows how to sell fights-----whether loved or hated----his fight with de la hoya still holds the record of highest ppv buys and his fight with mosley sold more than manny's biggest ppv bout with oscar------floyd's far from boring people---manny doesn't have to sell his fights like floyd does though----he just has too fight----but floyd is the complete entertainer, no doubt--whether you believe it or not---floyd is boxing's megastar----

The Difference Between Entertainers and Fighters. Why Pacquiao is BORING!

Boxing is all about entertainment, drama, and mystery. Before and after the bell.

Pacquiao after the bell ring, is one of the most entertaining fighters of all time.
Pacquiao before the bell rings, is one of the most boring fighters of all time.


Plain and Simple, Pacquiao has no personality. Pacquiao appeal is him being the pride and hope of the Philippines. So doing a 24/7 surrounding his journey towards his next fight will be boring because he is only 1 dimensional. How many shots can they show of him being cheered by his countrymen? So it should not be no big surprise that people find Manny Pacquiao boring before the bell rings, and when it comes to promoting a fight.


When its comes to promotion of this fight. What Storylines can they sell concerning Pacquiao?

Pacquiao loves his country?
Pacquiao loves for his country is making him distracted?
Pacquiao countrymen find hope in him?

Where is the Drama?
Where is the Intrigued?
Where is the Mystery?
Where is the Entertainment?

So instead of some of you guys getting upset that people find pacquiao's 24/7 and interviews boring, just understand that Pacquiao draw is not based on him having a personality. So do not get upset when people say he is boring.
Because you know what? He is.

I'd watch a 24/7 with Floyd in it before I'd watch one with Pacquaio, that's for sure.

I'd prefer to watch Manny in the ring than Floyd however, although I like watching Floyd ply his craft aswell.

If you don't mind me asking, what's your occuaption Horus? You structure your thoughts/ points very clearly and the presentation is excellent aswell.

[THE REED]

I couldn't even PAY Horus to make a thread about anyone else in the entire sport of boxing.

I tried.

And Pac is 1000000X more exciting than Floyd.
