Comments Thread For: Manny Pacquiao is Ready: I Love Being The Underdog!

[turnedup]

I would not bet a nickel on this fight for either man. Vegas, the betting houses, the promoters, the fighters themselves all have a huge upside to seeing this turn into a trilogy. The worst thing that could happen to this upcoming fight is it going to the scorecards, mark my words.

Gotta love Pacquiao's fans because they ride for Manny. Im sure after the fight they will either be in full damage control or M.I.A. Pacquiao better hope Mayweather is partying a night before like Tyson was against Douglas.

What if Floyd loses?? Are u gonna still ride with him?? And please don't say he won't to get out of answering. I understand if Floyd & his team won't think about losing, but fans have no real stake.

Will it crush you? I predict that you'll stick with him. Since you've stuck with him after the women beating, material greed and his other countless foolish antics. Or maybe, if he loses you can no longer live vicariously through him?

At least Pac fans (moderate and crazy ones) still love him after losing. How will you cope?

It probably will go to the scorecards. We're talking about two pitty pat punchers.
In their combined last 200 or so rounds, over 6 years the only ko's were Floyd when dude wasn't looking and Pac on his back against JMM.

****** pitty pat punchers. Why can't a puncher be the best? Sheesh.

Pacroid has never been the underdog, even in this fight he's not the underdog.

Wow, brand new to Boxing???? The boxing odds define who is the favorite to win and who is the underdog and anyone who has been around boxing more than 15 minutes knows Pac has been the underdog.

Manny knows very well Floyd is by far the superior fighter which is why Manny has no issues accepting being the underdog. Manny and his team had known this for years which is why they ducked Floyd all these years so they can make as much money as possible before cashing out and facing Floyd.

Floyd doesnt party like that so manny is getting the best floyd in 100% condition. Good luck and no excuses after.

You guys are so witless that you can't even tell when I'm joking and throwing a jab Manny only winning if Floyd is hungover. I have absolutely no doubt that Pacquiao is getting beat by Mayweather. I've never changed my tune.

Scorecards and most likely a controversial decision. But supposedly, the agreement is only for one fight. No rematch clause.

If History does in fact repeat itself, Floyd's old ass is going to get beaten into submission on May 2nd. Pac always comes out with that extra something special when he has doubters and is the underdog.

Ledwaba- a skilled 'master boxer', Manny took the fight on only 2 weeks' notice after the champion's opponent dropped out last minute. The odds were so heavily in Ledwaba's favor that Vegas called all bets off. That was Pac's first fight in the U.S. and the first major bout for him where he would clown the heavy favorite.

Barrera- MAB was second in the P4P list only to Roy Jones Jr. He was the 3-1 favorite to beat Manny (just like Floyd is now). How'd that go? Barrera's corner was forced into saving him from permanent damage late.

De La Hoya- many Boxing pundits called it a circus and fully expected Pac to not last 6 rounds. Odds opened at 3-1 in favor of Oscar and were around 2-1 by fight night. Result? Oscar was beaten into retirement, forced to quit on his stool.

Floyd- Odds right now have him at 2-1 or 3-1 depending on the book. He turns 38 in 2 days following a 2014 where he had to fight Marcos 'Chino' Maidana twice because many thought he lost the first time (Personally had it a draw). Get ready to hear about how 'old, shot, past prime' he was come May 3rd.

If Floyd loses then he loses. I have never made excuses whenever I picked against Pacquiao. Pacquiao's fans always make excuses and STILL after he was ko'd 2 years ago.

Please spare me the race card. Two smoked hypejobs in 6 happened to be Filipinos that's it. I have a lot of admiration and respect for Filipinos and some Filipinos (and even here in BoxingS) would agree with me about Manny and Nonito so fuck your weak a$$ race card.
