brawler201 Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 JMM is a bad fight because of the contrasting styles. He's not even a top draw. The only thing going for him is his belt. But Pacquiao can go after the lesser title holders in the 130 lbs. division if he is only after belts (I want him to get one at 130 lbs. to make him the first Asian to get three world titles in different weight classes). At this point, boxing is not only about heart, blood and guts for him, it's also a business (that's why he wants to fight 3-4 top draw fights a year for the next 2-3 years). And JMM is definitely bad for business. Pacquiao doesn't have to prove anything anymore. He's been at the bottom of the pecking order already and already paid his dues. Bring on the next cash cow.

solicitor Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 sabi ni Barrera.. “I’m sad because I lost the fight, but he never hurt me and he never landed any punches. I thought I controlled him with my left hand all night.”[ kung di sya tinamaan ng suntok bakit ganito itsura nya??? http://www.fightnewsextra.com/cc/FIGHTS2007/10-barrera-pacman/images/barrera-pacquiao21138.jpg Di ba na head butt?

dragonei Posted October 9, 2007 Share Posted October 9, 2007 Tinatamad lang ako mag-backread pero I'm sure na nakita n'yo na naman ang mga epal na politiko gaya ni chavit singson at noli de castro na umakyat pa sa stage, si chavit nag-mukhang tanga dahil akala niya mai-interview din siya after ng interview ke noli boy, hilig talaga sumakay ng mga 'to :thumbsdownsmiley: :thumbsdownsmiley: Well sino ba hindi sumasakay ngayon sa kasikatan ni Manny? Eh dahil sa kanya lahat tuloy ng mga pilipino world class na eh, ultimo yung mga tomador dyan sa kanto na ayaw magtabaho angat na sa buong mundo eh! Nayahahaha Ok seriously though, manny is the only source of pride of a country that has really nothing to be proud of. It can't be proud of its Economy, It can't be proud of its government, and sure as hell it can't be proud of its leaders. kay Manny ang lahat bumabango. Biruin mo ba naman hangang SONA binabangit ni GMA si Manny as if part siya ng achievment ng admisitrasyon nya? Pati nga paghimok sa mga foreign investors si manny lagi ang laman ng speech. Sheesh! Nung manalo si Manny Against Jorge Solis, ganito dailouge ng mgamang atienza Lito Antienza: O anak ha! alam mo na gagawin mo, paglanding ng eroplano ni manny, sumugod ka gad! sipsipin mo agad pawis sa bayag ni manny ha Ali Atienza: Opo dad! dapat mapanood ito ng mga manilenyo! lapit na eleksyon Lito Atienza: Basta anak mabilis ka dapat ha! alam mo naman di lang ikaw ang gusto makatikim sa pawis ng bayag ni Manny! basta ambunan mo na lang ako kahit pawis sa kili kili lang. DISCLAIMER: I do not hate MP. and I agree he is a great filipino, no discussion on that I am not even angry of the fact that he boxes for money and not for the honor of his country. its a way to make a living and he is good at it. I just hate how people in this country use and abuse manny or any great filipino out there para mas bumango sila at maitago yung baho nila. Not just the politicians but even the showbiz people. Minsan nagmumukha ng gago yung tao papakantahin pa at papasayawin pa para lang humatak ng ratings. Tapos pag naging sunod sunod na talo kalilimutan din lang. Narefund na ba yung gastos nya sa elksyon gaya ng pinangako sa kanya? Kaya hindi ako magugulat na kung minsan lumalaki ang ulo nya, at nagkakamali mali na sa pagpirma ng kontrata. Di naman pulitiko yung tao, pinatakbo pa, kawawa naman nung napahiya at natalo lang. Eh pano lahat gusto siya gamitin. Kaya tuloy hindi na nabibigyan ng tamang patnubay yung tao. Isang araw ito ang tatapos sa kanya. Don't forget the stories of Leon Spinks, Mike Tyson, and even luisito espinosa and rolando navarette. Kung mahal natin ang mga kagaya ni manny, sana lang hindi ganito pagtrato natin sa kanila. Pinagkakaguluhan hangang sikat at nagbibigay karangalan, at pwede hingan ng pera. Tapos kalilimutan din agad kapag hindi na mapakinabangan Quote Link to comment

Manny Pacquiao, TALO!!!Manny Pacquiao talo kay Rustico Torrecampo by Knockout!!! Heheheheh!!!Ano na sunod kay Manny Pacquiao ngayon? Takot sya lumaban kay Marquez eh... it's actually the other way around... si Marquez ang umiiwas kay Pacman. matagal na pinipilit ang rematch nila, ang daming dahilan ni Marquez para di nya kalabanin si Manny. gaya din sya ni Barrera noon. sabi nya pag nanalo si Manny kay Morales kakalabanin nya si Pacquiao, nung nanalo na si Pacquiao, ibang Pacquiao dawe ang hinahamon nya, si Bobby Pacquiao daw ang sinasabi nya. pero wala din napilitan na sya labanan si Manny para bago sya mag-retire madami syang pera.

stud Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 I dont think anyone in the current division will win over pacman. He should move up a division to face those that are the best. We just hope Pacquiao will not be distracted by the celebrity status he is now in. He got only a good couple of years ahead of him and he is not getting any younger. Fresh legs will sure come up the stage and challenge him. Quote Link to comment
Clinks Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 Di ba na head butt? nope....that was bec of Manny's left Quote Link to comment
darksoulriver Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 Much better to move at lightweight rather stay sa superfeatherweight. on the last weight-in vs barrera, Pacman looks exhausted at umamin na hirap syang kunin yung 130 lbs limit. Boxer's at 130lbs wla na syang mapapala dhil almost wlang pera ang kalaban. If sa lighweights a better future for the Pacman... Puno nnman ng pera ang bulsa ng mga linta ni Pacman... lol Quote Link to comment
bret_hart Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 Mexico’s Barrerun backpedals into the sunsetOctober 10, 2007 03:29:00Recah TrinidadInquirer LOS ANGELES -- Mexico’s Marco Antonio Barrera should’ve put up a fighting final stand instead of dance that cutesy waltz to the sunset last Saturday (Sunday in Manila). Rather than endlessly retreat, he should’ve figured in a screaming farewell shootout, with both fists blazing, against Manny Pacquiao in the Nevada Desert. Sorry, but it was only after having successfully avoided a brutal confrontation that Barrera was able to leave the prizefight stage with his handsome profile intact. The war script, written with the blood and tears of Emiliano Zapata Julio Cesar Chavez, called for a yours-or-mine, no-tomorrow slug-out. * * * You know what? If Pacquiao, certified fearless warrior, had, say, done something resembling the cheap manner Barrera had run his way to retirement, the Filipino superstar would’ve surely gotten more than his share of rotten tomatoes from adoring countrymen. But, wow, instead of jeers, Barrera received a big ovation for his soft, indecisive stand before gullible countrymen in Las Vegas last Saturday. Yes, Barrera got applauded despite having unwittingly given Mexican machismo a sissy ring to it. * * * To uphold the degeneration, there was the great Oscar De La Hoya to embrace Barrera with a wild ovation as he entered the over-filled media hall at Mandalay Bay Hotel nearly an hour after his bout with Pacquiao. It’s not easy to determine how Golden Boy wove the magic. It was a final scene out of great Indian-Cowboy war movies. There, all of a sudden, was the hero, whom De La Hoya would refer to as Gran Campeon, aglow, beaming like a debutante, under the blinding pop and flash of cameras. Barrera also wore his red badge of courage -- a tiny wound under his puffed left eye. * * * His handler, Tony Rivera, would proudly claim that, if not for a headbutt, Barrera would’ve finished the bout clean, unscathed. What headbutt? What did he mean clean? For the record, Pacquiao tried his best to play it clean all throughout. It was however Barrera who had to bend truly low when he sneaked in a foul right hand off a break. This was late in the 11th round, Pacquiao had just ripped in a thunder-clap combination, and it had become clear that, if not for the dirty shot that merited a point deduction, Barrera would’ve been crushed cold. * * * Anyway, these sordid details should’ve been similarly flushed off together with all the pre-fight debris. But, come to think of it, didn’t Barrera also make claims earlier that Filipinos would be in for a shock? Well, Barrera may have indeed been better prepared on Saturday than when he got mangled by Pacquiao in Texas four years ago. But as to the claim that his one-sided loss at Mandalay Bay had sufficiently plucked the thorn in his side planted by Pacquiao following that 11th round knockout, Barrera is hereby advised to check again. * * * It’s like this. Barrera on Saturday survived another ordeal without having to beg on his knees. Great. But did he really put up a gallant, noble fight? The answer would be properly provided by a small group of chanting Filipino fans in the upper box section, who also succeeded in re-Christening the once fearless Barrera. There were deafening cries of Barre-RUN, Barre-RUN, Barre-RUN, from the Filipino group under the baton of real estate expert Ferdi Dalope, as the rounds wore on. Marco, the Baby-faced Assassin, was shocking enough as he earned a new name while back-pedalling to the final sunset of an otherwise glorious career. PACMAN Quote Link to comment
bret_hart Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 P308-M payday for PacquiaoOctober 10, 2007 03:02:00Inquirer LAS VEGAS -- Manny Pacquiao earned a whopping $7 million (about P308 million) from his recent fight with Mexican legend Marco Antonio Barrera, according to a source close to the Filipino ring celebrity. The source, who is part of Pacquiao’s entourage in the United States, said the hard-hitting southpaw collected as much as $3 million in prize money, $2 million from United States pay-per-view sales and another $2 million from his share of the local pay-per-view pie. The fight’s co-promoters, Top Rank and Golden Boy Promotions, officially pegged Pacquiao’s fight purse at $2 million. The source, however, said Pacquiao was assured of an amount “very close to $3 million” after his abrupt decision to train for the Barrera fight in Cebu two months ago. Meanwhile, the Pacman could be headed to more mega-buck bouts, triggering a scramble among a slew of elite fighters to book a ticket opposite the Filipino. Another Team Pacquiao source said there are plans to increase to at least four per year the number of times he fights in the next two years. And the cash windfall he normally gets from his fights could turn into a hurricane. The leading candidate as Pacquiao’s next foe, though, is World Boxing Council lightweight champ David Diaz. “I would like to go up to the 135-lb division and challenge David Diaz for his WBC title,” Pacquiao told Filipino reporters after a Mass was said Monday inside his suite on the 61st floor of The Hotel at the Mandalay Bay. “Then I could go down anytime to 130-pounds to fight anybody,” he added, opening the doors to a possible rematch with WBC super featherweight king Juan Manuel Marquez. It is the fight against Diaz, though, that promises a hefty payday for the Pacman. Former Pacquiao manager Shelley Finkel said -- after the Filipino won his match against Erik Morales in November last year -- that hurdling Barrera would serve as the Pacman’s ticket to multimillion fight deals. He also said Pacquiao could be eligible for $5 million paydays. The other fighters who want to be Pacquiao’s next foe include WBA superfeatherweight champ Edwin Valero, WBO superfeatherweight king Joan Guzman, WBA lightweight champ Juan Diaz, WBO lightweight king Michael Katsidis, and even WBA featherweight champ Chris John of Indonesia. pacman Quote Link to comment

I agree magandang laban david diaz vs manny pacquiao lightweight championship panoorin nyo sa youtube yung morales - diaz ==>>non stop na bakbakan Quote Link to comment
edc Posted October 10, 2007 Share Posted October 10, 2007 it's actually the other way around... si Marquez ang umiiwas kay Pacman. matagal na pinipilit ang rematch nila, ang daming dahilan ni Marquez para di nya kalabanin si Manny. gaya din sya ni Barrera noon. sabi nya pag nanalo si Manny kay Morales kakalabanin nya si Pacquiao, nung nanalo na si Pacquiao, ibang Pacquiao dawe ang hinahamon nya, si Bobby Pacquiao daw ang sinasabi nya. pero wala din napilitan na sya labanan si Manny para bago sya mag-retire madami syang pera. Sa mga interview ni Manny makikita mo dun sa sinsasabi nya parang hindi sya excited makalaban si Juan Manuel. Pero pag kay Barrera and Morales gusto nya talaga makalaban. Quote Link to comment
