As a hardcore boxing fan, don't you kind of want Mayweather to beat Pacquiao?

[Jimbo16031992]

This is true. But the difference is that there are 10 of those kind of Pacquiao fans for every 1 of those kind of Mayweather fans.

Thank you, that's what I was getting at.

In fairness the Floyd Fanboys would find somebody else (maybe in a different sport) to jizz over, Fillipinos on the other hand actually worship the guy, suicide is a genuine possibility on that front.

Not true at all, sure some do...But, they seen him lose already...Just 5 years ago they seen him lose, they know about the videos where gets KTFO twice...So they seen that.

Floyd fans never seen Floyd lose, and imagine if the most skilled fighter of all time, the greatest defensive fighter of all time, according to his extremist...Loses to a one dimensional, overrated, overhyped fighter than yes suicide is a genuine possibility on that front.

Another reason why is more of a possibility front that Floyd fans commit suicide if he loses...The extremist Pac fans worship Pac as a god, how Floyd fans are in love with Floyd on some **** shit. real talk, it is more realistic to commit suicide when your heart is broken than it is to finding out there is no god.

To be honest, I do want Mayweather to beat Pacquiao. I'm a fan of both but I want Mayweather to win so the hardcore (I'm a casual) fans of pacquiao can stop talking like as if manny makes the world go round or summat.

To be honest, I see Pacquiao as another Roy Jones type anyway, he will detiorate hugely as his athleticism goes, whereas Mayweather has the skills and smarts to go for much longer.

When they saw him lose he wasn't nearly on the same status as he is now (except for the second JMM fight but he got a gift decision so they were fine).

Here on boxingscene sure,

on ESB it can be said that there 10 of those kind of Floyd fans for every 1 of those kind of Pac fans.

most of those guys are trolls though. the stuff they say sometimes do make sense and hold comical value to some extent. i'd take floyd nuthuggers over a ******* any day.

this guy put it so well:

Listen, people have their own reasons to be fans of certain fighters. I appreciate the entertainment value and the master technique Floyd shows in and out of the ring. At the same time I know the guy is ducking, because I see the reasoning and rationality. I look at certain situations and try to dissect them and if I find logical explanations I'll pick a side to support no matter who the individual is.

I can't say the same for *******s. *******s are usually these people that know nothing about the sport but only Manny Pacquiao. They only care about Manny Pacquiao. They'll attack ANYONE against Manny Pacquiao. They are the worst "fans" in the sport. They're usually racist, disrespectful to fighters, and faceless.

You can call "*****s" the worst fans all you want, but in reality these "*******s" are the virus and the vast majority doesn't know it because they love Manny Pacquiao.

Also, I'd like to state those "facts" are false. Every race has ****** and smart people. Don't try insulting a race based on pathetic online media sources.

*******s wold have nowhere to hide

most of the so-called *******s have real jobs but you guys are just plain bums. no life at all.

no offense.

I hope Pacquiao beats the shyt off Mayweather like never before just to shut him and hes big gas filled cherry picking head of his, thinking the money hes made of over hyped ppv fights w people who never had a chance makes him the best shyt ever to happen to boxing, but then again he is skilled if he had the ballz id love to see this fight happpen and Give Floyd a slight edge to win By decision or he gets KTFO.

[megas30]

No, I wouldn't.. The same as Pac fans, Mayweather fans only came on here after his fight against De La Hoya and they knew nothing about boxing, just the guys persona.

Pacquiao is a far better ambassador for the sport. He fights bigger guys and stays active. Even if you don't like his opposition as of late, you can't deny that he's fought some tough guys and made easy work of them.

If anyone has earned to be the face of boxing it's Pacquiao, unlike Mayweather, Pac stayed in the sport when the going got tough and didn't retire. He's also passionate about the sport, unlike Mayweather, who says he only does it as a job and his heart is no longer in it.

You were 22yrs old--that says it all about your comprehension of the sport...in the next ten years you will feel embarrassed by your now perspective of the sport. Just as i am embarrassed that back in the days i had Leonard winning against Haglar.

LOVE that reply. And your avi. To clarify, Floyd was exciting and I enjoyed watching him at 135. He is still a master craftsman of boxing at welter. Blame it im being just too good, but watching him dominate guys like Mosley and Marquez just don't do anything for me.
