Comments Thread For: Arum Discusses Pacquiao-Mosley PPV Performance

[Sugar Q]

for me race has nothing to do with it - it's character. i choose to support the one known as pacsmash because he presents himself as actually "giving a ****" about us fans. mayweather on the other hand, as excellent of a boxer he is, doesn't care about his fans.

that is why mayweather only has "online fans", and pacquiao has REAL fans who come to his fights. seriously, why does mayweather have so many fans online, but not at his fights?

i am a fan of mayweather's skills, and i love watching his fights, but i support pac over him.

You and many say that BS but when Duran spit on Ray Leonard's wife and said he wants to **** her did that make you or anyone else dislike him? I rest my case. Boxing is not about character it's about ring skills. This is not dinner with the Mayweathers this is boxing. It takes more than online fans to make PBF the biggest draw in boxing.

too much damage control , this ***** is butthurt

He does not need damage control, Floyd outsold Pac! And always will!!!

it's the role mayweather plays i guess. i don't know the guy personally and im not gonna cast judgment on him, but he doesn't do himself any favors when it comes to drawing support. look at some of the racy comments he has made. like i said he's a hell of a boxer and ill pay good money to watch him fight, but i just can't "cheer" for him.

floyd is boring!
pac is exciting!

After mosley had a taste of pacs power he run'd like hell, rather than be a man and slug it out.

Mosley slug it out with floyd-- floyd got noddled legs
Mosley slug it out with pac - mosley was day dreaming and runned

No wonder mosleys gf called him mannys B!tch!! lol

Floyd was far more impressive against Shane than Manny was. Manny made Shane look like a boxer with a jab.

Yet more people would rather sit down and watch Floyd fight then watch Pac hmmmmmmm

This is actually false. More people sit down to watch Pac's PPV fights than Floyd's because most Filipino households will have fight parties with their relatives and friends. PPV-wise against Mosley, Floyd may have out-sold Pac by around 100K buys, but as to number of heads, Pac is watched by more people. You only have to look at Youtube videos for confirmation.

Shane almost floored May while he was KD'd by Pac in the 3rd round and spent the rest of the fight running and wanting to quit.

Dude. White america hates a confident black man. Do some research. It goes all the way back to Jack Johnson. Ignorancy just wears suits now instead of Klan robes.

Shane landed more punches on Floyd then he did on a no defense having one dimensional midget, and the midget knocked down Sugar and had him wanting to quit.

So Manny is officially the first boxer to ever have 4 straight years with at least 1 million buys. Just saw his HP commercial twice during the NBA Finals, can you say WINNING?

i can see where you come from, and im sure a lot of people do make it a race thing. but i support leonard over duran. leonard is one of my favorites. i like duran too, but i favor leonard.

im sure mayweather does it on purpose, because obviously ima pay to see him fight even though i don't really like him that much. so i guess it works out good for him lol.

He's also the first champion in boxing history to fight 7 consecutive fighters coming off huge losses. Whatever happen to champions going after the unbeaten or streaking?
