Originally posted by torosboxing75 View PostOnly groupies get rattled. And there's Floyd groupies, Manny groupies, Cotto groupies, Canelo groupies etc..and they're all haters. It's OK to like a certain boxer but you can't be a blind and death follower or your word means nothing.
So many times I have been enjoying a thread, when out of nowhere a groupie will post something unrelated and turn it into a boxers "greatest hits", with people trying to justify every minute detail of a boxers life.
I made a valid observation in a thread reply sometime ago. The poster had no answer or alternative, so I was PM'd and told "you don't know s**t", or something like that. I wasn't bothered in any way, but disappointed that some people still have that mentality, which again contributes to the uneven basis of some discussions.
None of this is to judge anyone, each to their own. But a simple fact is that I visit this site as it offers a wide range of posters globally and insight of other boxing markets, which seems to have narrowed in focus to make room for lack of respect and possible racial barbs.
I don't see how it helps anybody?!?

Originally posted by MurkaMan View PostNo they wouldnt, your only saying that trash just because your biased lol. All of Floyd's opponents were bigazz primed beast who beat azz to get into the top 3 of the division.
Marg, Clottey, Rios, never were in their prime, and did NOT beat azz to earn fights. Gone somewhere with this silly shiat lol

You ever met like this hot girl, she's smart, nice, educated and everything you are looking for. Then you meet her friends for the first time and they are loud, ignorant, disgusting, obnoxious, trolls who irritate the hell out of you. And the ******ity of the girl's friends cause you to lose your damn mind and take your frustrations out on her sometimes?
That's why it appears that many fans don't like Manny Pacquiao.

I like both fighters IN THE RING as they are...I can only "judge" by their fights and their prowess, skills and tendencies as both present unique qualities that makes them both, arguably, the most enviable position to be a boxer.
I am not just talking about their financial gains...really don't care about those.
So I cannot "like" or "dislike" any of both based on what is outside the ring issues.
Manny Pacquiao's prowess is commendable in the light that he tackled anybody in his sight and just fight. He has grown from the usual 1-1-2 and now relatively a more complete fighter. Known for the obvious speed, footwork, strength, durability and tenacity - he can pose serious challenges to Floyd.
Floyd's strength is his defense. Everything revolves around his uncanny ability to be still and move about his opponent's blows and with accuracy- landing those pot-shots. His angulations, timing, distance and presence is noted. Arguable one of the very best DEFENDERS in the ring of all time...perhaps at the least, at par with Willie Pep and Whitaker in deft and subtlety.
Manny is the "lesser" among the two greatest of our era in terms of technical skills but he is of no slouch as a fighter because he makes up for it with dizzying array of arsenals in his combination punches coming from different angles and agile that only Floyd can rival in accuracy.
Both have never faced a caliber of each other's prowess and it is a must to see both fight NOW though it's been 5-6 years too-late.
That's all I want to see because ego sets in...both camps of followers have the bandwagon to show "******ities" and blind-allegiance, but that's human nature.Last edited by fabie; 02-13-2015, 11:40 AM.

How can anybody make a judgement on somebody they don't even know?
For all those that say Manny is a great guy, you could counter that with the fact he is a known serial cheat with illegitimate children outside of his marriage. So if he's willing to do that to his wife and own children, he's definitely not as respectful and pure as people would have you believe.
All we know is his public image. He could be a total d1ck or he could be a great guy. None of us know for sure but i really don't think he is a great upstanding citizen like people think.
