The recent bouts of Pacman are fighters who are old or aging or over the hill. Now that Hatton and Mayweather (both Pacman's age group) are signifying that they each want to challenge him, Pacman goes on TV hinting at retirement?

 

Pacman's actions tell me what I already know. He is a bully of aging boxers trying to get a last hurrah while capitalizing on Philippine nationalism to make himself look good.

 

Prove me wrong, Pacman. Take on Hatton and/or Mayweather. Lest you be branded a bully of aging boxers.

 

Forget about politics for now. Do not use that as an excuse to run from legitimate opponents. There is still 2013 and beyond. Besides, I have no faith in your political ambitions since there was attempt on your part to evade taxes by grossly underdeclaring the value of the Porsche SUV you bought in the States and bringing it in the country. And a politician who owns a relatively new strip joint and massage parlor is not something I would vote for. But of course, the people of Saranggani are ignorant of these facts. And running in General Santos City is no longer an option since losing in 2007.

Happy birthday pacman! idol kita sa boxing pero wish ko wag ka na mag politics! sayang ka lang kung maging pulitiko ka!

BERT SUGAR'S POST-FIGHT BREAKDOWN

December 9, 2008 - by Bert Sugar

 

In the strangest case of free association since Professor Rohrshack toppled over his inkwell, those bargain-basement guess-your-weight merchants in the writing dodge had worn down their pencils to the nubs calling the Oscar De La Hoya-Manny Pacquiao fight a "sham" and a "fraud." In their Delphic opinions this was the biggest mismatch since little David challenged the giant Goliath. How could a fighter who had started as a 106-pound junior flyweight and fought only once as a lightweight now jump up to the welterweight level and fight a man who had been fighting as a middleweight and junior middleweight, giving away height, weight, and reach? To them it was more than a leap of weight, it was a leap of faith.

 

For particulars on both matches we refer you to A. Lincoln's sonnet on "Fooling all the people..." For what they had done was examine the bottle, not its contents and the value of the package called Manny Pacquiao far exceeded its contents.

 

From the git-go "little" Manny--who, ironically, weighed more that the supposedly "bigger" Oscar, coming into the ring weighing 148 to Oscar's 147-plus--fought in total control of himself and of Oscar, threading the needle's eye with his straight left and moving out of arms and harm's way of Oscar's jab. By the second round, now more than moderately belligerent, Manny had set off the parameters of the ring, keeping the fight in the center of the ring where he could outmaneuver Oscar, frescoing him with straight lefts and an equal number of rights rather than merely lacing him gingerly.

 

As the fight wore on, so too did Manny's unceasing attack as he continued to shift De La Hoya's center of gravity with body punches coming from all angles. If you were keeping score, you could have written "ditto" after every round--which, not incidentally, the three judges did, the three giving Pacquiao every round except one of three giving Oscar the first. It had become a blowout, complimentary and alimentary as many of Oscar's fans and those in the press section began to wonder if their faith in Gibraltar had been misplaced.

 

By the seventh it was all Pacquiao as he drove De La Hoya to the ropes and, with Oscar bivouacked there, brutalized him, folding him into three like a carpenter's rule with body shots sounding like surf striking shore and forcing De La Hoya to grab the ropes to keep himself up.

 

Defenseless, offenseless and just plain ol' fence-less, the sand in his hourglass now quickly flowing to the bottom, De La Hoya wearily made it to his feet for the eighth round almost as if he had to just because he had paid two weeks' rent on the ring. But it was only to prolong the agony as Pacquiao continued to land a tsunami of punches, first lefts and then last rites, now a human litter bearer.

 

At the end of the eighth, as a beaten De La Hoya sat slumped on his stool, his left eye wearing a giant plum of a welt, his shoulders slumped, his face bearing a look of resignation and a did-you-get-the-license-plate-of-that-truck-that-just-ran-over me? his trainer Nacho Beristain had enough even if Oscar hadn't and waved it off.

 

Manny Pacquiao had done it! He had not only pulled off an upset that few had foreseen, but done it in a manner unforeseen by any. And, in the process, had placed his name in the record books alongside that of Henry Armstrong, the original copyright holder of leap-frogging from division-to-division to win multiple championships along the way. No tonic, no matter how well advertised, has the invigorating effect on the boxing public as a new superstar. And Manny Pacquiao is now that new superstar, despite those before-the-fight prophesies by foreboding soothsayers who now can go back to just saying "sooth.".

[ixnay]

amen to that!.. now who wants to call the fight a sham again!..

I'm sorry but I beg to disagree. David Diaz, and Erik Morales are about 2 years older than Pacquiao. Neither of them were over the hill although Manny sure made it look that way. Sure De la Hoya is older but that was a fight predominantly arranged by Oscar and not Manny. That was Oscar trying to get a last hurrah. I don't think Manny is considering retirement because he particularly wants to avoid Hatton or Mayweather. He may just want to preserve his quality of life since he's already wealthy anyway. It is a real possibility that one can get seriously hurt in the ring. Why risk it when you stand to get little considering that he already as more than he'll ever need. It's so easy for armchair analysts to make sweeping statements about being a bully of over the hill boxers when they are comfortably ensconced in their homes and not the ones receiving the punches. Give the guy a little more credit if he decides that he wants to enjoy life a little more.

[kleptome]

you have to give MP a break when it comes to his <english> interviews, it's not every day your voice will be heard by millions and millions of people around the world.. baka yung mga tumatawa kay pacman ay maihi sa nerbyos pag sila pinagsalita sa ganung kalaking audience..

 

Sakto! Di ganun kahirap magsalita sa English sa TELEPONO (call center agents) pero ang magsalita ka ng live na iba ibang international networks (camera, video, mic) ang nakatutok sa mukha mo, ibang usapan na yun. OM nga at director ng call center nabubulol sa meetings and mancom, sa worldwide interview pa kaya?

 

seriously, you guys think Mayweather still has what it takes to fight a Pacman? how long na ba siya retired? Pacman improved in every aspect of his game and i doubt Money can stand toe-to-toe w/ him. Hitman is like a walking punching bag for Pacman. if he(hitman) cant do anything w/ his footwork then its even easier for Pacman to KO this britboy! i just hope Pacman is still in his best shape when he face these two. (sana din wala pa sa isip niya ang politics by that time...)

 

I believe Mayweather still has what it takes. He's not undefeated for nothing & last time I saw him, he does appear to be in tip top shape. afterall, he was once the BEST pound for pound boxer in the world.

 

 

triple threat gusto mo? :boo:

 

ampotah! WWE! :upside: nak ng PATO!

I disagree as well. As far as I can recall, wala namang tinanggihang challenger si Manny. David Diaz and Erik Morales as mentioned by the poster before me appeared to be a genuine top contenders as well.

 

Also, it's Manny's trainer/coach's job to look for his opponent & he does not pick who he wants to face. Siguro at this point it's more of the "lack of formidable opponent in his weight class"

besides odlh who else did manny fought that is old?morales 2 yrs older than manny,diaz same age,jmm is older than manny but when they fought his age was not an issue so who else did he fight that is aging..

or are we considering manny old or aging now as he is 30 right now same age as barrera when they first met? at that time did anybody say that barrera is old...they thought barrera will beat the heck out of manny we all know what happened there

when mayweather fought odlh 2007 anybody there said odlh was old nope, oscar fought a good fight and had a split decision going against him....

 

age is an issue now because manny is so good he makes people really look old...i dont care who he fights next but i think if it is just up to him no arum no toprank no golden boy he will fight hatton and mayweather at the same time he will probably win too :thumbsupsmiley: :thumbsupsmiley:

 

btw im also hoping manny retire early as i dont want him to end up with a parkinson like syndrome that had striken some boxers

Yes. He USED TO BE the best pound for pound boxer in the world pero ganu na siya katagal retired? i mean, he's in tip-top shape but the question is, ganu na siya katagal wlang boxing training? ganu na katagal walang laban? these factors can affect his performance plus the fact that he knows that PacMan is still improving.

[uaeboy25]

ang totoo magaling si mayweather.before exciting sya maglaro. people lost interest to recognize him kasi he start to become lazy, he only fight almost twice a year, he keep on telling that he is the undesputed p4p king. people get mad at him since how come somebody will beat him kung hindi nya inaacept ang challenge. he accept wwe appearance na alam natin na hindi sya matatalo its all because it was a scripted.

 

today people are looking for a boxing hero, an idol. the one who can represent the boxing world in modern era, i remember one of bert sugar's column. sinabi nya na kung magpapatuloy ang pagiging boastfull ng ilang boxer, it cant help to beat those famous boxers in the top of the rank. while floyd speak how good he is in boxing. the fist of sugar ray robinson, henry armstrong, muhamad ali and roberto duran explain why they called the unforgotten boxing heroes of all time. and still the generation of the new millenium doesnt have any representative in top 10.

1.Sugar Ray Robinson

2. Henry Armstrong

3. Muhammad Ali

4. Joe Louis

5. Roberto Duran

6. Willie Pep

7. Harry Greb

8. Benny Leonard

9. Sugar Ray Leonard

10.Pernell Whitaker

 

its all because they boxed to have money, not to become a nation's hero. this is the reason why pacman leave a big exclamation point to delahoya. his fist explained very well that he needs to win, and not he just like to win. pacman must remain constant to his aim. to beat this 10 kings of boxing. and he cant beat them by running politics.

 

if he run for politics, his name will be cursed.

if he fought for a continous war to be on top, his name will automatically enlisted and unforgotten, a name larger than life that even his grand children will carry as a big legacy.

Pacman should just stop being a boxer and instead mag-pari na lang!!! All of his interviews always thank god...thank jesus...jesus is my savior....he gave me the strenght .....when the "stupid" "no self respect" David Diaz called him up and ask him about his performance ang sabi nya he told the mexican moron that "god gave him the strenght" and other bullshit!!! but when a reporter ask the mexican moron about his conversation with Pacquiao, he told the reporter that the pacman told him that he was just lucky.......He should just stop projecting an image of perfection and stop acting as a saint :thumbsdownsmiley:because he is in the company of the devils (GMA, CHAVIT,ATIENZA etc) instead ibili nya na lang ng TV yung tatay nya at sustentihan nya yung anak nya sa labas!!!Pweh!!!!!!!!
