Comments Thread For: Pacquiao Felt Insulted, Walks From Alvarado Bout on April 14

It’s sad that after Floyd beat him no one cared about him. All his sponsors walked away and now he’s forced to fight on undercards on cable television. He should of listened to Floyd

Walk away champ.. your glorious days are over and you have proven so much... Don't let them use your name for their resume'... You have nothing left to prove... Take concern to your health and your family

Good for Pac, though now it's time to pack it in.
Manny's easily my choice for most exciting fighter of his era.

[greenarcher89]

he should retire then.

I agree... He had achieved no boxers might never achieve ( 8 division champion ) what else left to prove?

Good for fkn pacman!! this dude has given all of so much entertainment over the years that we should ALL salute him! Give the guy lucas m as a last main event and let him sail off into the sunset...

unfortunately im seeing another rjj on our hands with pacman and i hope im dead wrong!

Delusional. Thinks he's something he's not. The reason why Crawford-Horn is the main event is because Pacquiao didn't want a rematch. Jeff Horn is too good for the cherry picker.

I agree. Pacman may not have needed to main event a PPV, but he needed to main event even on a unique free TV situation like vs Horn. Now Manny does need to realize that after Mayweather loss and Horn loss, his stock has dipped. Albeit controversial, he lost to Horn on cable TV in front of a large audience which didn't bode well for him at this stage in his career.

So I think he did the right thing by not accepting an undercard vs Alvarado, especially if there was not guarantee in the contract for the winner of Crawford/Horn and big money. He should do a separate cable TV card or go straight for the winner. Assuming Crawford were to beat Horn, I think Pacman should fight Crawford. If Pacman were to beat Crawford, that would be the best feather in his cap in a long time. Then he could end his career by disposing of Horn.

However, I only see Crawford coming out on top of all of this.

What a diva. Why would some old and shot fighter fighting mike Alvarado be worthy of a main event slot?

because he's still a big draw, and FFS he was one of the very best boxers of all time. pacquiao can walk if he needs to. he's got a career in politics and should have plenty of money.

Cherry Picker is the last thing Pacman should be called.

That old and washed up fighter still outsells Triple She.

Pacquiao >>> Mr. 97k
