PacMan's Corner

[guytalker]

I think Pacman already lost his magic. I lost interest in Pacman after he lost to Mayweather. That fight was the one that would have made him the unquestioned GOAT in boxing if he won. What made things worse was his excuse of an injury. He kept on bragging that he would beat Mayweather but when it was time to back it up, he failed miserably. In my opinion, he had so many distractions that's why he lost to Mayweather. If he just concentrated on being strictly a boxer, he would probably have beaten Floyd.

 

Pacman may not be 100% healthy that time... but do you really think Mayweather Jr. won a wide margin with that bout?

 

I think the only way Pacman will win against Mayweather Jr. in Las Vegas, Nevada is if he knock him out. But that will never happen... No one can knock Mayweather Jr. out because he does not engage. And no one will win against Mayweather Jr. on points not because he is skilled but because he is protected there.

Yes Mayweather won that fight decisively. Sure he didn't go Rocky Balboa on Manny's ass and sure we can agree that the fight itself was very disappointing. But judging on the merits of the fight itself, Mayweather clearly won. Manny just could not get him to fight his fight. Mayweather kept frustrating him. Mayweather was hardly getting hurt. Remember kahit naman yun mga journalist na nasa ringside kay Mayweather binigay laban.

 

Yun Leonard Hagler, yun pa! Talagang ngayon hindi masettle ng afficionados kung sino ba talaga nanalo sa laban na yun.

Laos na talaga si Pacquiao.

 

Do not get me wrong, he deserves a place in the history of the sport as one of the greatest fighters of all time. But what goes up must come down. No one stays at the top forever. Not the beatles, not the backstreet boys, not the persian empire, not even the dinosaurs.

 

Parang kelan lang no? Hindi lang hinangaan si Manny kundi halos sambahin na. Sabi ko nga, ang Pilipino panatiko sa dalawang bagay, relihiyon at Manny Pacquiao. Kung tutuusin relihiyon na sya na matatawag. There was a time na kapag me sinabi ka na di maganda sa kanya, para ka na din nagcommit ng blasphemy. Sino na nga ba yun import na nasipa dahil sa sinabi nya tungkol sa pagbabasketball ni Pacquiao? Ayun sipa tuloy sya. Sya daw Martin Luther King ng pilipinas lol. Last time I checked he did not fight for civil rights.

 

Pero ngayon kahit sa sarili nyang bayan di na rin kasing excited mapanood sya lumaban. Hindi rin nakatulong yun masahol pa sa hayop speech nya. At ngayon gusto pa maging senador. Ewan ko kung alam ni Manny na ang pagtangkilik sa kanya ng tao nakasalalay sa kasikatan nya sa boxing. Pag nawala na din yan, mawawala na din interes sa kanya. Sure pwedeng manalo sya sa election, pero kung magkalat sya sa senado, huwag nya asahan na lagi sya kukunsintihin. Maliban na lang siguro sa mga ilang bobotante na kulang sa talino. Sayang nga eh. Noon napagkakaisa nya mga intellectual at yun mga mahihirap. Ngayon yun mga intellectual di na interesado.

 

Sana naman huwag maging complete rise and fall yung story nya. Tipong after boxing, wala na. Laughing stock na lang sya sa senado.

[Edmund Dantes]

Just heard na kahit daw sa middle east, ayaw na magsayang ng tao dun ng pera for PPV para mapanood si Pacquiao.

 

Well normal lang naman talaga ang malaos. Pero ang hinayang ko, pagkatapos ng boxing lalo pa sirain ni Pacquiao sarili nya sa Pulitika. No doubt that his accomplishments will be well cemented in the history of the sport. But what becomes of him after being a boxer?

 

Siguro naman hindi na sya magiging pulubi gaya ni Rolando Navarette unless sobrang tanga sya. Kabobohan na lang talaga maghirap sya.

 

Its not impossible na manalo syang senador, pero I doubt really if he will do great. In fact, he never really did anything great outside boxing (i.e acting, singing, basketball or politics). Itong ibang extra curricular work nya, nakadepende naman lagi sa kasikatan nya noon sa boxing. Ngayong wala na, I doubt kung tatangkilikin pa sya gaya ng dati. Liban na lang siguro sa ilang die hard fanatics.

......................

my friends who are experts say pacman should have quit while he was on top some years ago. sa sunday swerte nalang siya pag nanalo siya at lalong swerte kung via TKO/KO.

 

but for sure he is one of boxing's greats and syempre Pilipino siya kaya ok na rin yun.

Last great performance of Pacquiao was with Margarito. It was the last time IMO the world will see the awesomeness of the Pacman. The fight was at 155, and Pacquiao went in that fight at 143. It was a junior welterweight beating the s@%t out of a middleweight. That fight didn't end in a KO, but boy was it awesome to watch. Pacquiao did more damage to margarito more than anyone this mexican had to face.

 

Its one of my favorite fights of him. I like it better than Dela Hoya. Dela Hoya was not even healthy, any boxer who stood up with him would have kicked his ass that night. Kahit siguro referee kinalaban nya, matatalo pa din sya.

 

Hatton and Cotto fights were awesome too.

[poker.face]

Manny may be past his prime pero sana manalo pa din sya sa laban bukas - sana, tapos sa eleksyon.. ahemm.. never mind..

[CirocBoy]

In my opinion, it seems like Bradley's game is still improving and Pacquiao's skills has been diminishing. Tough call, Bradley is approaching, if not on his prime, while Pacquiao has been steadily declining.

 

This fight hasn't created a lot of buzz unlike the previous Pacquiao fights. That's crazy.

I think it's gonna be like mayweather's last fight -- boring but he'll get the job done. Well ultimately, tingin ko depends on where the money is in vegas. If at least half is with bradley, pacquiao to win sure ball

[Doctor Juris]

maluwag pa rin kaya trafic bukas pag pacman na?

 

parang wala na yung madaming banner na may live screening sa mga kainan.

Eto mga factors na nakikita ko kung bakit nawala na interes sa kanya ng tao, maging ng mga kababayan nya

 

1. Sinira sya ng pulitika.

 

2. Sawa na mga tao magsisigaw ng proud to be pinoy

 

3. Disappointing yun kinalabasan ng mayweather pacquiao

 

Yung number 3 siguro pinakafactor kung bakit ayaw na magsayang ng pera mga tao para mapanood si Pacquiao. Unang una boring naman yun naging laban, natalo pa sya. Solved na yun Mayweather Pacquiao debate. So ayun nagmove on na lang yun fans sa ibang rising superstar ng boxing.

 

He had a good run though. But the ride is just over.

Ang alam ko very successful si Pacquiao because of sheer hardwork. Always underdog pero nagpursige. He is very rich and i am very happy for him na buo at masaya pamilya nya. Yun mga nagsasabing sira sya at panay criticsms, hindi pinapansin ni Manny yan. Goodluck sa fight bukas, Manny. Knock Bradley out and goodluck!

Successful sya as a boxer. Wala naman problema dun. All the rest na sinubukan nya outside the ring, sablay sya lagi actually. Mapasinging, acting, basketball, at lalong lalo na sa pagiging mambabatas. Lahat naman ng nasubukan ni Manny ay pinalakpakan dahil sa kasikatan nya sa boxing. I doubt kung me manonood nga ng concert nya kung di naman dahil sikat syang boxing. Overly romanticized celebrity sya IMO. to the point nga na naging relihiyon na si Pacquiao.

 

Pero ang lahat ay may hangganan. Lahat naman ng sumisikat eh nalalaos. Sana talaga piliin ni Manny gagawin nya ng mabuti pagkatapos ng boxing. Huwag na Pulitika dahil hindi naman sya para dyan. Blessing na lang kung matatalo sya sa election. Kung talagang gusto nya maging pulitiko, sana magaral muna sya.

[BennyChang]

Go Manny! Wag mo pansinin mga haters at critics. Just live your life. You are a good man and u deserve all the success and accolades. Were also happy with your family. Dont mind the haters. They are not happy with them own lives 😁 goodluck on the fight tomorrow. Another $1billion pesos in the bank for a fellow Filipino. Im sure madami na namang maiinggit, este matutuwa sa success mo 😁

natatawa ako kasi patay malisya na lang ang tao sa next fight ni manny, kahit ako hindi ko ramdam na bukas na pala yun ...halatang nadala na ang tao dun sa laban nya kay FMJ na todo marketing at lahat tapos hindi rin maganda ang kinalabasan... takang taka ako kung baket kelangan pa kasi gastusan ang PPV at manood sa sine kung libre naman nang mapapanood sa tv yung buong laban...

 

..basta ako, standby na lang ako sa yahoo news for updates on the fight.
