    News Flash - The Grand Canyon has been removed from the list of the worlds 7 natural wonders and has been replaced by Manny Pacquiao by *******s all around the world. Su****ions arose at the press conference that these were natural wonders. Pacquiao looked concerned when it was revealed to him that the Grand Canyon never once touched ped's and that the caverns were indeed made by the earth. When asked if he would submit to drug testing Paqciauo exploded stating that the Grand Canyon never had to subject itself to tests then why should he....................Rockin'

      I hate it when people single out a fan base.

      Tyson fan base was horrible. His die hards still are.

      Roy fan base had him top 10 ATG after the Ruiz fight which was laughable.

      Tito fan base was insane and delusional(I know cuz' I was one)

      Floyd fan base believes he's the most skilled fighter of all time, could TKO Duran in 9 rounds at LW and blah blah blah.

      Pac fans...Well look at the front page of NSB.

      Point is every fan base has their idiots. To act like what the extremist Pac fans(*******s) are unique or the first idiotic fan base is plain ******ed.

        this is true. I mean if it were based on talent, skill, head to head fantasy matchups, etc and we're being honest... Hammerin' hank was a very poor man's hatton or margarito, was flat-footed, fought while staring at his opponent's shoes, threw sloppy looping wide punches, and was easy to hit. Someone like marquez would've toyed with him and guys like cotto, clottey, margarito, mosley would've beaten him like a drum. Pacquiao punishes him badly, gets an easy highlight reel ko, and retires him.

        But the rankings aren't based on skills, talent, and fantasy scenarios.

              How can you not see Manny has a unique fanbase? You see it on a daily basis here...imagine back in the 80s if Mike Tyson fans went and knocked on your door or randomly called your phone to tell you Tyson is best all-time...imagine in the early 2000s if RJJ fans spammed the entire internet on a daily basis about how RJJ is #1 p4p greatest all-time...Pacfans are unique. Never before has the internet boxing community seen such ******ity and fanboyism and it probably never will again.

                Actually you just describe perfectly how Tyson and Roy fans were during their day.

                I take it you're somewhat new to the sport that you never experience their fan base when they were on top.

                    Actually I'm not. I don't live in Philippines so I had internet well before 2004, but yeah I know how annoying the RJJ people were...but if you can honestly say that the RJJ nuthuggers were/are anywhere near as bad as the *******s you're lying to yourself.

                      LOL @ "I don't live in the Philippines" WTF? You're an ignorant idiot.

                      You probably had internet in 2004 but I doubt you were watching boxing pre 2004.

                      pre 2004 you had RJJ fans saying how he was damn near unbeatable. Nobody could beat him in any era could beat him. You still get some of those knuclehead responses now. After he beat Ruiz his fan base were calling him a top 10 ATG.
