Comments Thread For: Pacquiao To Receive Huge Hero's Welcome Back Home

[V.WEBB]

Haha bruh you keep on grilling them! You're relentless.

Man listen, Ive never seen anything like this. It's hilarious but I'm a bit dumbfounded by it all. It's, um, weird.

[-Johannes-]

oh oh you seem very upset/angry......

******? me? look in the mirror, lad!

to keep on topic, what is it to you or to others what pac fans do to welcome him?

win or lose, let them do what they want to do in welcoming one of their own...

they are doing it on their turf, not in your house or backyard...so what is it to you?

you won't see me question if floyd's fans put up a party for him....that's their right...

Lmao at me being angry.

Yes. You. ******

I'm not mad at the hero's welcome. I just question it. I find it hard to understand why have a huge hero's welcome for your hero's worst performance adding the fact the he lied to you and gave you all false hopes.

I guess I don't understand cultish behavior

[Porter's Dad]

They're geeked over a LOSING hero.



Uh. Gone head #48. I guess.

Look at this childish nonsense. It's like these dudes are talking to each other

Everyone has moved on, no-one is even sweating that loss, the Marquez KO was much more painful. The whole emptiness of the whole fight comes down to nothing more than bragging rights for Mayweather fans. The fight was dreadful because of Mayweather's headache-inducing style. Floyd fans are the only ones still clinging onto that ugly-ass fight that made boxing look like a complete joke

Reason Pac will be getting the love of the Filipinos is because they know he did the best he could under the circumstances. It's still something that a runaway Filipino kid could get to where he is now. That **** isn't forgotten because one fight.

Manny did his best?



His best isn't even better than Zabdaniel Judah.

One of the most pathetic half-assed attempts in megafights in my lifetime. You know how Floyd is going to fight, and you just let him fight his fight for 11 1/2 of 12 rounds? Are you ****ing serious? Even I had higher expectations for Pac's performance.

Sad bunch I tell ya.

They're happy #48 lasted 12 rounds, I suppose.

But, he did his very bestest and that's ALL they can ask for!!!!!!

What can I say, Manny could only hope to perform like a Zab Judah or Emmanuel Augustus against Floyd. But EVERYONE ain't able.

I think this is the fundamental problem with Team Pacquiao's approach. Team Pacquiao was doing the most trash talking, which was not Manny's style. Floyd was being extra respectful, which is not Floyd's style. Manny was supposed to be a killer again, but he got forced into a boxing match, and got schooled. All Floyd's fans knew that the fight would go just as it did. But the worst was the post fight interview; no one expected Manny to come up with an injury excuse, especially when he never said a word to Kellerman, about an injury, but as soon as he got with Arum...BOOM! Team Pacquiao was out of character, out-boxed, and out-classed:

May 3, 2015:

And yet, in the immediate aftermath, Pacquiao was insistent that he'd won the bout, telling an incredulous Max Kellerman "he didn't do nothing." It was a tone-deaf and classless performance, a proud fighter unable to reckon with the fact he'd been handled with ease in the biggest bout of his career.

You can forgive a fighter for almost any misstep in the ring after a fight. The adrenaline is still flowing and, unless he's Floyd Mayweather, he's likely been hit in the head by a professional athlete more than 100 times.

But Pacquiao, to his detriment, doubled down on his delusions at the post-fight press conference. After seemingly offering a mea culpa to start, telling the assembled media masses "my best wasn't good enough," he was back on the war path soon enough.

This time, however, he didn't come without ammunition. He brought an excuse with him—he had been injured during training.

"For two weeks I didn't train well," Pacquiao said. "Because I couldn't use my right hand."

Never mind that there hadn't been even a whisper of the injury before the bout. Never mind that no one, even when trying to explain his struggles in the ring, had suggested Pacquiao might be hurt. Never mind that Nevada State Athletic Commission chairman Francisco Aguilar said "I have no proof of the injury," according to Yahoo Sports' Kevin Iole.

Outside the ring, Floyd Mayweather is the ultimate coward. But, on this night, it was Manny Pacquiao who didn't have the courage to face an uncomfortable truth—in the end, he was merely second best.

Mayweather, carefully polite just like he'd been after outclassing another popular fighter, Arturo Gatti, attempted to apply salve to Pacquiao's psychic wounds.

"He's a tough competitor," Mayweather said of Pacquiao. "He's a true champion at heart."

Before the fight, there was narrative that this was a battle of good versus evil. The crowd certainly seemed to buy into it, booing Mayweather soundly and cheering Pacquiao's every success, no matter how inconsequential.

But a true hero is gracious in defeat, as well as in victory. He doesn't whine about training-camp injuries or try to discredit his conqueror. Manny Pacquiao was supposed to be better than this. It's a shame he didn't live up to his lofty reputation.

Can you imagine how weird it would be if the situation was reversed?

Imagine a bunch of fl*mos dancing around parading Floyd because he did his best with? That would be pretty insane and people would make fun of it.

Aww how cute. This idiot wants us to move on from embarrassing #48 and his salty ass fans after 6 years of racism, photoshopping, and other garbage we had to deal with from #48ers. Sit down, son. We aren't ever going to stop celebrating.
