Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Plans To Play Ball as Mayweather Bout Looms

[sterilizer]

Your P4P list is cool. I like it because it has mostly attacking, non-chicken non-running fighters in it, with the exception of Bradley, of course.

But I will ask you a favor, PLEEEASE could you stop writing you're when you should write YOUR, and use the apostrophe where it is warranted, as in he's as opposed to hes and there's instead of theres. I mean for somebody with such great reputation like yours on here, it wouldn't hurt to write more properly, would it? Just saying.

I never said you shouldn't give you're opinion. I'm saying is you're opinion more valid than Pacquiao's? And we're talking about playing basketball.

You make it sound like hes gonna get hurt no matter what. Have you seen his game? I've played basketball since elementary school and never got hurt. Hes a spot up shooting point guard. All he has to do is stay behind the 3 point line and theres basically ZERO percent chance of getting an injury. He obviously doesn't care about how many points he gets.

Both fighters are FAR more likely to get hurt in sparring and you know this

Did he ever twist his foot before?



Improving his speed and footwork means nothing now?

Lol, he sounds like my friend who tried to use skateboarding as a way to improve his boxing. Different sports work different muscles.

But hey, Pac can play basketball and improve his speed and footwork, while Mayweather trains for boxing and improve his speed and footwork.

But then again, I can't say **** since I've never been a world champion. Let's just hope that Pacquiao doesn't play basketball too much and "jump" into a punch again.

Think of how hated he would be if he tore an ACL playing basketball ahead of the biggest fight in decades.

haha! i love how Manny is still playing b-ball. Floyd is an easy fight just watch.

[Ruthless One]

He needs to focus 100% on boxing for this fight.

Why is Larry banned? Anyone know?

This is some HanzGruber type idiocy right here.

Manny already mention retirement after this fight. He knows its a cash out fight so why bother training hard if you going to get schooled anyway. I mean its not like his going to get paid less if he loses so Manny just going to enjoy training camp playing B-Ball and figuring out how much he is going to have left after the tax man and Arum take their share.

Seriously. Pacquaio will probably injure himself playing hoops. And the big fight will vanish.

He'll come dribbling into this fight happy-go-lucky for his last paycheck anyway. He knows he won't win, so why plan for more fights? It's retirement time!

Floyd (on the other hand) will take this fight seriously and outwork, outthink, and outbox Pacquaio all day long. But then Floyd is a DEDICATED FIGHTER.

With Manny's recent statements about retiring after this fight and about playing B-ball for this training camp, it pretty much sounds like Manny has already accepted the fact that his going to lose. Manny's attidude about this fight doesn't reflect the warrior spirit and people's champ mentality. Floyd sounds more hungry about this fight then Manny. I thought Manny was the one wanting this fight really bad for his people? Manny's whole personal is fake as a 3 dollar bill.
