Why too much hate for Pacquiao?

[Mindgames]

I don't think understand Pacquiao's (Filipino) fanbase. They derive a huge part of their self esteem from this man.

It's as if an insult to Manny is an insult to their country and their national manhood. And Filipinos in general get very hurt when you don't like something from their culture.

They have very fragile egos and can't take any form or criticism or negativity about their country, and this goes for Manny as well. They're a very unique fanbase, and not in a good way.

Im not talking about hes national following, its a different culture for sure.. Its just nobody can seem to take criticism about their favourite fighter without resorting to race baiting and gay slurs, at least on here.

You can't talk about Manny fans and exclude his Filipino fanbase since they make up a huge, if not the majority, of his online following. Manny fans are very different from other fanbases, and you'd know by now if you joined before February of this year.

I can talk about what i like. Im not on here listening to a nation of Pinoys commenting, im listening to all the so called boxing fans and talk turns to race and nationality more often than records or performances. I read the site and comments long before registering to join in and help bring a little sanity to the place. Eurobums, Commie bums, inserting Gay into peoples names, people saying Mike Tyson never fought a live body, people calling Kell Brook a coward, all the same types on different sides of the fence.

Only in nsb people hate pac but watch his fights in youtube via replay.

Because he's the best of era. People feel if they take the Mickey out of Pac enough, mention his losses and being put to sleep often enough it will stay in peoples sub conscious and psyche and at back of mind and people might downgrade him.
That ain't happening anytime soon.

He is ranked behind Floyd in every credible ranking so he clearly isn't the best of his era. He lost to the best and got KTFO by a guy the best dominated. He is closer to 3rd best in his era than he is the best.

God just made Floyd better. Just like God made Ali better than Frazier and Leonard better than Hearns.

What is so wrong with being 2nd best to Floyd?

To summarize all the arguments I've seen on this forum, Pacquiao's win was because:-

"He was on every PED going"

"Matthyse was hopelessly old and washed up"

"....and in any case, the fight was fixed and he took a dive"

Tell me if I missed anything.

That's.... a lot of hate for a guy just to win a match he was favorite to win.

And I can't help but think this is all basically just because Pacquiao was a rival for Mayweather's #1 p4p spot for a while, and because of that he is going to be hated forever by a certain fanbase section.

The truth is out. They can't accept Floyd won a fluke win.

Even Floyd knows he OWES the fans for that stinkfest he did. Rematch is the only saving grace for Floyd.

Floyd said this (straight from the horses mouth):

Floyd Mayweather: " I owe them for the Pacquiao fight "

That sorry display of fighting the whole night is well documented.


Welcome to ***** ST.



The fight was so embarrassing and for FLOYD that after sometime your HERO couldn't get it of his chest, Floyd had to issue a statement addressing that shameful performance.

Here straight from the horses mouth:

Floyd Mayweather: " I owe them for the Pacquiao fight "

ALL THAT RUNNING AND HUGGING WAS A ONE SIDED ENERGY DEFUSING BORE-FEST COURTESY OF FLOYD



The boos in every Floyd Mayweather hug caught in this footage only shows how boxing fans feel in their frustration of what is an example of what not to do in a super fight of this magnitude.

@1:15 - "Keep running Floyd. Keep running. You can do it!"



This Is How Floyd Mayweather Jr Will be Remembered against Manny if he doesn't find his way to man up for a rematch.

8 division world champ, fighter of the decade.

Both of these are true as is my point that He is ranked behind Floyd in every credible ATG ranking and lost to Floyd.

Floyd is unbeaten. Rank him alonaside marciano, JC, sven ottke and every other unbeaten fighter there ever was. You can then debate which unbeaten fighter should be viewed with most sus picion.
Hopefully at end of it you will be able to conclude who deserves to be greatest unbeaten fighter. It may well be floyd

Those other guys are not ranked ahead of manny. Just Floyd. Sorry but you can’t change the things.

Maybe those people use your criteria that you deleted once Floyd beat all the guys you asked him to, including Manny.

Hey, why did you delete that post? You lost all credibility when you did that.
