How can a boxing fan hate Pac? Hes bringing boxing back!!

In an event where Manny is fighting, you'll clearly see
the difference between the undercards and the main
event. It's just apples and basketball. Pacman brings
excitement to the sport.

Slluuuuurp manny = real boxing fan. Manny not your favorite= not a real boxing fan. Geez. Hope the facebook page with slurpavelli comes out well.

What if you watch boxing every chance you get, go to fights, collect memorabilia and spend an inordinant amount of time posting in the NSB, but you don't like Manny. Are you a real boxing fan?

lol why are you mad? the ts is a mexican pacfan who for sure was not a pacfan before. pac won him over to his side so that's how he feel. that's his opinion which obviously is not the same as yours. we all know which fighter got your affection so why don't you start your own nuthugging thread to make you feel better.

Boxing, like horse racing, is never getting back to where it was 20-30 years ago as a mainstream US sport. Its now become a niche sport like MMA or poker (ugh).

Manny isn't bringing boxing back, but it is good to see boxers get coverage when its not for law violating or cheating. I'm glad Manny was on 60 minutes just as I was glad floyd was on DWTS.

To me the best part about them fighting is the opportunity to stack the undercard with quality fighters that have no mainstream popularity (bradley,pwill,) aso they can get the shine.

It has become a niche sport and it may not get back to where it was 20-30 years ago but it can get a lot better standing than where it is right now. Truth be told that will not happen until boxing fans make themselves heard. In truth PBF vs. Marquez should not have been supported to a damn near sell out crowd and 1.4 mill ppv buys. Just like Manny vs. Margarito should not have been support by 40,000+ and maybe 1+ mill ppv buys. These just were not the fights that fans called for.

In football GM's & coaches get fired because the fans boycott games and the owner loses money so he has to give the fans a reason to comeback so changes need to be made. PBF vs Marquez and Manny vs. Margarito was reason for fans to boycott not support. It would have spoken volumes to GBP and Arum that **** has to change cause it would have ****ed them and the fighters money up.
