is pacquiao viewed as a villain in boxing now,

[Dempsey-Roll]

Pac's not a villain.
He's probably one of the few "good guys" in boxing.

Its the people around him controlling his career or putting him on a higher pedestal that are the real villains.

I think he's too much of a good guy and a pushover that he trust his career and reputation on someone else's shoulders when he should just do that himself.
He made himself a puppet, and he really needs to stop being one for the sake of his career, reputation, and for boxing as a whole.

hes no villian. hes just not the hero ppl make him out to be. and hes not the superman ppl think he is either. the truth has risen to the surface now all of u pac fans are scrambling to protect his reputation. dont waste your time.

only way he recovers is if he fights and beats floyd. i dont see both happening. he may fight him, but he wont win. so the real villain will win in the end. perfect.

No, it's only hysterical people who jumping on the bandwagon saying negative stuff like that.

It was a close fight, maybe he lost, maybe he won, but at the end of the day he isn't a judge and he got a questionable decision. That's the problem with being a counter boxer, judges tend to favour the aggressor.

IMHO being a close fight its not questionable decision, but rather a debatable decision, similar to the first two fights ...

He robbed Marquez 3 times so yes i think so

[joesaiditstrue]

i'll always respect pacquiao, he's done nothing to me personally to make me disrespect him as a fighter

i don't really disrespect him for saying he won in the post-fight interview, any fighter would say that

i disrespect bob arum, and if you could show me one person on this forum who actually respects arum, i'll be shocked

Why do you even post on this site dude, you don't ever add anything of value.

at one point, people made pacquiao to be god at times, lol, they talked like hes unbeatable and ****, lol, hes beatable but to see what hes done since coming up from 107 pounds to now is un ****ing believable, lol, that made him earn his rightful title of fighter of the decade, lol, a man almost as small as ivan calderon shouldnt be doing this **** that he does to guys much bigger than he is, lol, nyahahahaha

pacs good legacy may never recover from this hit but if you know what hes done, lol, he is and should be considered a all time great top 10 at least, lol, the bad thing is the fact that people instead of giving marquez more credit of how really great he is, nobody gave marquez that credit, lol, they all focused at manny being a unbeatable god, lol, marquez got no love and was labeled as a easy k.o victim, lol, pac and marquez are living legends but marquez will finally get more credit for his first 2 bouts vs the pacman, lol, nyahaha

Without a doubt manny is a great fighter but it was good for the nutjobs to get a little dose of reality. Maybe now we wont hear ****** **** like; "Manny would beat Ray leonard and Tommy Hearns back to back on the same night". Now maybe people will actually logically consider the boxing involved instead of turning Manny into this.

same ***** that morales got when he and mab had a close fight

[Bushbaby]

I was a borderline ******* at 1 time, seriously. But the Margarito fight IMO was like a slap in the face, 1 big wake-up call. I've never been a fan since. But as a fan of boxing, men can at least keep it real. The Punisher lost badly to Lara, It's not that hard to do. This fight last saturday reminded me of the 1st Malignaggi- Diaz fight. Clear win for Paulie, but decision Diaz.

There are fans who have high expectation of Pacman to always win by KO or Knockdown his opponents;

When he won a close fight with UD, they start to downgrade him and insult him,
but, see even Marquez BEST shots failed to knock down Pacman!
Pacman still was able to make retaliatory punches. throwing more punches than Marquez. Why can't they accept that?

It reminds me of the days of Ali who lost and later won split decisions against Norton and Spinks; and still Ali, was respected.
