LOL it's funny, but I can imagine some of you like...



Don't get so consumed. Remember just when the announcement was made for Pacquiao vs Margarito? Everyone was in an uproar. Skip a few months down and all of a sudden the odds were stacked up against Pacquiao and he had a big chance of losing. The same will occur here...and people will watch, even those who will "boycott" the fight.

People who hate on Floyd do the same time and time again.

Epic gif...lol

[GRUSTLER]

I'm DONE.

don't you EVER fix your dry lips to compare pac to guys such as sweet p. duran, lenard, ali. armstrong.

EVER!!!

Manny Pacquiao was built up to be this invincible fighter
by his promotional company (They did a great job) but in
reality,m Manny only fights fighters he can get an advantage
over and avoids a particular style that consist of defense
and ring generalship. NO WAY can he be compared to such
fighters. When it is all said and done, all Pac is going to
be remembered for his fighting set up matches, avoiding
random blood tests and smiling. I mean, Pac has fought
a Top fighter since Juan Manuel Marquez. Just looks like,
after them wars with JMM, Pac went the other direction.
He made enough money, so now give us ATLEAST one
legit match up to see how far your skills have improved.
Easy to look dominate against fighters you are faster
than, that have NO defense, head or foot movement.

To CNOTE111:
Don't generalize. I'd love to see Pac fight 1.Berto
2. Bradley
3. Sergio
And not in any particular order, most fans would. There would be no *****ing about those fights so keep posting garbage if you'd like but boxing fans who have followed the sport for decades understand that Bob is a piece of **** that hand pics opponents that have zero lateral movement. Buy a clue or talk to someone who has one.

The problem is that Manny is a safe bet to do OK in PPVs regardless who he fights and Arum is clinged to that.

Why take risky fights if Manny's fans who are made up of a very large percentage of non-boxing followers will pay for any fight that Manny is in.

So in Arum's mind he just wants to put on a show just to make Manny look good and continue the cash flow. Arum doesn't want to take a risky fight with someone with a small following. He wants that cash flow to continue. And if that means easy fights for Pac then so be it but they'll be well worth it when Arum checks his bank statements.

I am a die hard Pac Fan, here are my problems with people on these forums..

It wouldn't be hard to find examples of the below statements..

1. People will b!tch if he fights Mosely
2. People will b!tch if he fights Berto
3. People will b!tch if he fights JMM above 140
4. People will b!tch if he fights Bradley
5. People will b!tch if he fights Sergio
6. Finally, People will always find something to b!tch about....

Money May is the only fight people won't b!tch about, and we haven't even heard from May... So we have to just accept that fact that Pac has multiple fights this year and possibly next year as well..

Lets just enjoy the Pacquiao ride for however long we have it... He will come to fight all 12 rds and lets hope within the next 3-5 fights we have the one that everyone will be happy with...

This isn't Pac's farewell fight, so chill out!


OH AND I ALSO DO NOT WANT THE MOSELY MATCHUP!

Nobody would ***** if he fought Martinez at 154 and above. I undertand he is too small to fight at 154 but if thats the case lets stop the nonsense about being a jrmw champion of the world.

[Sinisterevo]

Arum may want this fight against Mosley, but I don't think Freddie Roach wants this fight for Pacquiao, it's a dangerous fight for him, although it would be very entertaining.


Make no mistake about it either Manny's win against Margarito was a tough one and an impressive one.

[mushahadeen]

Not mosley!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[BigDog9]

this fight aint worth it plus if its gonna b a pvv thing to hell no. aint gonna sell well. we know pac is gonna whoop him already

[KingOfBox]

Everybody wants Shane my *ss!!! Nice, slick move Bob.. No one will know that in REALITY, zero calls came in about Shane. He needs to prove himself against Sergio! Keep hiding behind the size excuse... Margarito is much bigger than Sergio. Pacman is getting exposed as a farce who is scared of Sergio. Pacman is scared, and Bob even more so.
