Comments Thread For: Mayweather Feels Psychological Edge Over Pacquiao

[StrangerInTown]

Manny is the A side of this promotion and Floyd is the undefeated side.
The edge is all with the GENUINE confidence Pacquiao inhabits. He's seen it all. Mayweather has only seen what he could control with the exception being jail time. In one week the 0 goes via karma and a majority or split nod.

pac man will lose this fight but it takes nothing away from how great he is, and if floyd loses it takes nothing away from his greatness

i disagree pacman really never done it the right way since his lost to morales

all the weight stipulations are questionable..plus ducking that test...pacquiao needs this win 100% more than floyd does imo

You're an idiot. Here is a quote from you where you slandered Mayweather fans:



Slander is defined as:



You slandered Mayweather fans by attempting to group them with people who are angry and insecure individuals. Thus stating the only people who are fans of Mayweather are angry and insecure.

In response to me calling you names, you said:

"Sounds like you're looking for something to pick apart because maybe my observation hit too close to home?"

Do you think I'm an idiot? If in reference to my response you said that your "observation" hit to close to home for me than by extension you are calling me "angry and insecure."


So your first post called Mayweather fans "angry and insecure" and then you called me angry and insecure. Are you really attempting to play the victim? You were the one who jumped into this thread attempting to play Dr. Phil. Don't make blanket statements and then not expect return fire for your baseless accusations, also don't be upset if someone calls you out on your ***** tendencies (I mean seriously you watch boxing for personas why are you EVEN TALKING?). Your original post was not a critique of Mayweather's persona. It was a rhetorical question where you asked how people can be fans of mayweather and answered yourself by assuming that all mayweather fans are "angry and insecure." It was slander intended to defame the character of Mayweather fans.

You are either trolling or an imbecile. Read a dictionary before returning to the thread.

Dude are you Stephen A Smith?? I mean you are just breaking him down right now! Your killing him articulately!! Wow

LMAO pac's been fighting guys way bigger than mayweather too. **** most JWW's are bigger than pac.

Pac ain't worried about nothing. Just look at how he's still one of the best after getting KO'ed cold. Most dudes would be done after that KO against marquez yet pac is still here and looks like it never happened.

Pac's one of the most strong minded fighters today, the more chaos the better for him. He thrives in that ****.

hasnt fought a puncher with skill since that ko either..floyd mayweather is on another planet from bradley and algieri together bru...algieri literally needs one rhytm to be good thats all he has...bradley in there with one foot gives manny a hell of a fight and makes him miss a lot unless he pins himself on the ropes..i'd be hard press to tell u bradley's best punch, but manny still gets hit a lot by him...

You took that comment and concluded that I am talking about ALL Mayweather fans. That was your mistake.

So because you don't know how to express your statements that is my mistake?

That persona probably would've appealed to me when was 16 and young, vain and rebellious. He appeals to the angry and insecure. They live vicariously through him.

You never used the word some, or any type of quantifier. You said Mayweather appeals to the angry and insecure. If you meant that some of Mayweather's fans are angry and insecure you should have said that. THAT IS YOUR MISTAKE. I simply read what you wrote.

You admit that Floyd is a "marvel in the ring" but don't like him because of his "persona." I'm the one who's angry? I dislike Mayweather's persona but understand that people are different and tolerate this. It doesn't cloud my ability to see his talent in the ring however. You seem intolerant because you can't fairly rate someone's accomplishments in the ring if you dislike their personality. You emotionally rate and judge a fighters talent in the ring based on their personalities outside of it. Furthermore you feel the need to judge a fanbase based on your personal opinions of a fighter's personality.

old adage "good big fighter beats a great little fighter" u'll hear jim lampley say some mess like then when pac is getting owned

how about a great bigger fighter jim to atleast show some respect..i mean didnt u ask for this?

I'VE NEVER HAD TO PAY 100 DOLLARS TO WATCH TARGET PRACTICE, but f it..why not

[TrueBoxingFan23]

Wow, I'm not sorry that I got under your skin. You did that all by yourself. You chose to take my first comment personally, then attacked me personally. You took that comment and concluded that I am talking about ALL Mayweather fans. That was your mistake. Stating that a public persona (embodied by Floyd) appeals to a certain emotional type is NOT referring to ALL Mayweather fans nor is it slander. You did that math all by yourself. Maybe you want all "angry and insecure" people of the world to sue me for slander. Good luck with that lol. Everyone has been angry and insecure throughout their lives. It doesn't define them. But YOU read into that comment and showed that you took it personally. There are Floyd fans that I respect and admire him for the right reasons, not the wrong ones.

As far as the name-calling. I still haven't called you any names (which is not playing the victim by the way). Yet, you are the one that is drawing conclusions and making personal attacks over my views. I also found it weird that you went out of your way to explain and try to prove to the internet that you don't follow boxing "politics" or "personas", etc. No one needs to try to be "Dr. Phil" to see how you are. Your angry responses and defensive manner says a lot.

Not buying your post! Now your contradicting yourself! You said what you said and it was a ignorant statement! Almost more ignorant as those that believe all his fans are black! I feel like the other guy! Im a fan of Floyd because of his skill! Not the money or persona! Some fans are too personally invested and will surely cry or have a bad couple of days after the fight! And that could be on both sides!!!

I've always had Floyd winning this one but if he thinks he has a psychological edge over Pac then he is fooling himself. Pac has fought and beaten guys bigger than Floyd. He does not get intimidated by size.

One week to go...

floyd drops him by popping the head up with and uppercut and finishing it with a hook..if the fight gets in close

from range floyd drops him from showing a lot of rights to the body that will confuse manny's limited defense..he'll be blocking low with one hand and high with the other then floyd feints that right just to sweep a huge right hook..he's going to toy with this kid..and i'm sure he's going to laugh at him when manny's on the attack early...i'm thinking 2 good early rounds for manny...not huge shots but good activity then i'm saying he might not even get that since floyd been seeing the same thing i've been seing for 6 or 7 years now
