"Cotto Clone" Omar Henry turns down Pacquiao Invitation

[madsweeney]

In this thread, you can definately tell whos a ****ing adult and whos a kid. Mentally or physically. Anyone who doesnt understand that in the middle of a semester, this guy is getting an A in his classes, that he is paying for, and doesnt want to hurt that, is a ****ing idiot beyond any comprehension. Hes young in his career, and just because a certain hero of yours was never afforded the oppurtunity to go to school, this kid is. Even Pac himself would understand that, and likely would have done the same if Pac could have grown up with a better life.

Are you certain he's getting A's?!? I don't know where this guy's going to school (I hear its a JC) and I know most professors would allow him to drop as most semesters are only a month or so into them (out here fall semesters started in Sept.)

Either way its his decision to make. Sometimes in life doors only present themselves once.

Much respect for Omar, if the boxing thing does not go so well he has an education to fall back on.

Kids, stay in school!

Guy turned down a once in a lifetime trip to the Phillipines to spar with the #1 P4P boxer Manny ****ing Pacquiao for $1,300 worth of classes at some rinky dink community college and he's got your respect? lmao

School can't help this kid.

Are you serious or ******ed? How can school not help somebody? Boxing is not for ever you know.

c'mon man... omar turned down the fight because of Pricans... not because of community college... that's just an excuse

It's oficial, you just hate PRicans. We get it, now let us continue discussing boxing without all your racial comments, Pleeeeease!

Two things

1. Not surprising that, on a forum full of idiots, so many of you are questioning why someone would want to get a good education.

2. He loses nothing/very little by not taking this 'opportunity'. There seems to be some kind of delusion that him sparring with Pac will get him massive exposure and career chances, but I'd be willing to bet that 99% of the people on here couldn't name the sparring partners that Pac used for Hatton, or the sparring partners that any top boxers used for fights more than a month or two ago.

Good post. I agree completely and no I do not remember any of those sparring partners.

I dunno, im asking u lol

Fres Oquendo's abs are so air-brushed in that photo lol

[rskumm21]

its called exposure moron. There is serious retirment money in this game if you manage it correctly. I wouldnt expect a idiot like your self to understand this. Its called not working another day in your life. Oh WTF am i wasting my time with a idiot... Oh by the way you may need to stop the **** in the moth talk...It lets people know how **** you really are to be even thinking about ****s in a mouth. ewwww...you nasty.

Yeah, because you're an expert at the pitfalls and ups and downs of the boxing game right??? Let me guess you had a successful career as a sparring partner and are now retired and living it up... Many elite fighters became great champions and it had nothing to do with them sparring with champs on there way up. And btw you know you're a pac ****-rider, just admit it. You're always jumping to his defense, and putting his opponents down. Try and not be so biased and appreciate boxing for what it is. If all you're going to do is manny-nutt-hug, go take that **** to his official website or start a fan club.

Omar benefits more from everyone talking about it than actually doing it..

Very good point. Its all about exposure for him right now.

Omar Henry would have been a real good look for the Pacquiao camp! Better than Castillo for sure!
