Realistically, Manny Pacquiao won't be missed..

[I Love Jesus!]

Floyd gets absolutely zero credit for beating Pac. All he did was duck him for years making excuses about why he can't fight. Marquez said step aside floyd you little biatch and knocked pac out but that doesn't tell you Floyd could. Floyd can't even punch. And even if he could he didn't. He will always be remembered as a biatch who wouldn't challenge himself. He can't even get an endorsement

hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha

name one boxer that could replace Pacquiao for Face of boxing that are elite right now

[Bring It On]

He is to this day, by far, the second biggest draw in boxing. If what you're saying is true that no one wants to see the second biggest draw, then boxing is dead.

People only want to see Floyd beat really. And they want him to fight someone decent having waiting floyds whole career and it still hasnt happened.

Fight the most dangerous guys or best guys. Floyd has beat decent guys who were supposed to be quite decent before but they were overated.

Fight Sergio, Canelo, Trout, Guerro, Khan. We dont khan to face anyone else and dont really want to see him unless he fights the best.

Three guys you mentioned....it looks like one of them is signed already with another being in the undercard to match up in the future. I'm talking about Guerrero and Canelo. By your own admission, you'll have to give Floyd serious credit for taking these fights if they're the ones you think he is ducking and should be taking.

As for Khan? Mate, get a ****ing brain. First, he's at 140. Second, and most important, he's lost two fights in a row, one by KO. He's not remotely in the running and is years away still.

how come you're spending time making a thread about pacquiao? obviously you're still thinking about him...

[Medved]

I wont miss Floyd either.

Dude turned boxing into a Circus.

Dude doesnt fight the best, dude avoids everyone, dude retires every few years. Complete joke.

I have more respect for fighters who have real battles, doesnt matter if they have 1L or 5L on their record.

Imagine if old champs did the same?

but hey another larryx thread, BoxingScene must pay you per thread created

All Im gonna say is, Pacquiao made a HUGE impact in boxing in his era. People watch Pacquiao for the entertainment while the others watch Mayweather to see him lose or hope that he does.

With that said, after BOTH of these guys are gone the PPV's entertainment does not look too good. Who out there is PPV caliber, Canelo? Who fights WW's for a living? Maybe Broner? And the next P4P king can't draw **** to flies in his own hometown and that's Andre Ward.

actually, having paid for both of floyd and manny's fights and being a fan of both, it's floyd that i wouldn't miss at all. he rarely fights anyway and if he does, it's mostly boring or something ****** happens like against ortiz the only thing that makes people interested is his 0. once his cherry gets popped, his marketability plummets because his style is not very fan friendly. great fighter, absolutely, entertaining fighter, sometimes.

manny has lost his aura of invincibility but his fan friendly fighting style plus new found vulnerability can make for exciting fights. not to say that both are the same but while a lot of folks hate khan, he makes for very exciting fights because he is both impressive and vulnerable at the same time. floyd mostly dominates but also mostly bores and once he loses that 0, his marketability goes away with his perceived invincibility.
