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

that post made my day, pound. rep comin your way.

Sometimes it feels different to root for the guy that everyone call "nice" by the media, Sometimes you feel a guy like that has a fake persona about them just because the media are involve but having said that this is one fight that i felt the best man comes out with their reputation intact.

Well said.................

Sure. If you want to pay for the tests, be my guest. I'VE GOT NOTHING TO HIDE.

I guess you failed to get the point. Its one thing to sit there and accuse someone of something then to have actual proof. We can sit here and toss out some hypotheticals, but here remains fact, One man said others followed. Now if no acusations were made and a fighter just requested some other forms of testing without trying to damage another persons status then good. But to sit there and fire out some obsurd comments, then ask for this sort of testing (which is not even required in the first place, just fan boys got on the bus with it). I would of taken the high road also.

To sit there and say a fighter (who never tested dirty) is on something , then that must mean all fighters that do not take these sorts of test are on something also.

i cant stand either guy. but i respect mayweather's talent and im more impressed with what he does in the ring. and after my father told me that CLOTTEY would beat mayweather (no joke, he really said that), i would love nothing more than to see mayweather destroy pacquiao because i know that would crush his world haha.

personally, i'd rather mosley be the one to derail the pacquiao hype-train. i dont see that fight as one-sided as most people do. pacquiao isnt gonna avoid confrontation and run around like a lil bitch like mora. pacquiao isnt a bigger guy with a good jab like wright and forrest. he's nowhere near as technical and defensively sound as mayweather. i think mosley is still faster than margarito and if he can land on pacquiao, why can't mosley? i consider mosley to be a bigger puncher than margarito as well.

but to answer the question, as a hardcore fan, i want to see pretty much ANYONE beat pacquiao

[tdubb]

NOPE! My feelings are the exact opposite. I wanna see Manny beat Mayweather and watch all these superficial hip hop wannabes SUFFER and crumble into pieces!

[p4p-champ]

lol..*sigh*...

this is all BS

Actually Floyd fans are in love with Floyds boxing skills....the people who are floyd fans have been RJJ fans..Sweat pea fans...Ray Leonard Fans...Ali fans.... basically "FANS OF SKILLED FIGHTERS"..Mayweather fans DONT worship Mayweather for who he is...but as for how he fights, his work ethic, his ring IQ, his dedication. When Mayweather retires we will go to the next SKILLED boxer......all the PAC fans are just PAC FANS...they werent here B4 Pac and they wont be here when hes gone! Pac fans are the unrealistic fans who only see one sife of the picture when it comes to Manny..from cheating on his wife to cheating inside the ring....NONE OF IT EVER HAPPENED according to Pac Tards.

NO Mayweather fans will deny that Mayweather is an idiot outside the ring but who cares about a boxers personal life...we care abotu his skills in the ring.....I dont know many Mayweather fans who are emotionally invested in Mayweather...but a high percentage of Pac fans feel a strong affinity towards the fighter which makes me believe that they are FAR MORE HARDCORE fans and would be far more devastated if pac gets knocked off his high horse....

Now that's real talk.

I also think Mosley has a good shot a beating Pacquiao, but he will have to do it within 4 rounds or he will just get punished.

Jesus Christ man. Barry Bonds also never had a positive drug test (at least not until the Mitchell Report became public) so are we to assume he was innocent the whole time as well? Quit being so gullible. Stricter testings for not only Pacquiao, BUT EVERYONE. People have died in boxing rings, and when people's lives are on the line, the commission should act accordingly. I dare you refute anything I've just said.

Hear me out here.

I've been wrestling with who'd I'd like to see win this fight for months. I don't really like watching Floyd fight, so my instincts say I should be rooting for Pacquiao, whom I enjoy watching. But another part of me wants Mayweather to win, just to spite all the haters in the media and fly-by-night boxing fans that arrived once Manny beat DLH.

Seriously, wouldn't it just be so sweet? Boxingscene's member count would probably decrease by 25-50% overnight. And I'm not saying Floyd doesnt have a lot of ****** fans too, but the way Pacman has blown up in the American media... Appearing on Jimmy Kimmel, Nike commercials, ect ect while still being a lesser draw than Floyd is amazing.

I was looking at Floyd's facebook last night, and every photo has comments to the effect of:

"hahaha look a like a monkey hahahah black skin black heads all black"
"is that a monkey?..oh i'm sorry its floyd!"
"MONGOLOID NA BLACK HAHAHAH"
"***!!! put your money where your mouth is ***!"
"*****s like gayweather n0t bcoz of his boring performance. they like gayweather bcoz of his talk ****.. "
"Mayweather SUCKS **** its all about PACQIAO"
"*****tot"
"negger!"

No other athlete, aside from Lebron James, has so many haters coming on his facebook just to span his page with racist/hateful stuff.

After his arrest, after that infamous internet video, after all the **** he has talked, wouldn't it just break everyones hearts for him to lopsidedly beat Pacquiao??

I have to admit, I would love that ****.

I'm really sorry to hear this, but I won't let emotion dictate who I root for...if I let it get that far, I'd probably stop watching boxing b/c of all of its sensitive fans...every now and then, I get annoyed with all the bull**** and just stop logging in, but I'm still watching.
