Answer 1

A lot of all people hate the pacman, but I guess that just can't be avoided. Fight fans vary, there are those who wants a fighter to win, and those who wants a fighter to lose.

Mexicans, naturally, wants their fighters to win. But that is not what is happening when the pacman is the opponent. By circumstances, he got to be called "Republica Enemigo Numero Uno".

Mexicans root for a mexican fighter. That's the natural and moral thing to do.

BUT MOST OF THEM BET BUCKS FOR PACQUIAO! Hehehehe

Answer 2

Nobody, Mexican or otherwise hates Manny, the guy demands respect from true boxing fans of all ethnic backgrounds.  I must admit though, I know a of no Filipino's who are pulling for Marquez, they are almost unanimous in their support of Pacquiao.  Manny did beat some true Mexican greats in Morales and Barerra, and in truth that fist round against Marquez wasn't going the way most Mexican's would have hoped.  The label of "Mexican Assassin" doesn't endear Manny to that ethnic group, but I don't know of anybody hating Pac Man.  It will be interesting to see if Manny can KO Juan Manuel this time around, or if Marquez can pick up where he left off in the first fight.  The rest is media hype for a fight that really needs no hype.

Answer 3

if you know Mexicanos, you should know that they don't hate you, unless you hate them first!

Pacquiao is a great athlete, so his Mexicano opponents! And none of those epic battles were grudge fights!

They showed greatness on, and off the ring, exremely fine example's of athleticism and respect towards each other, so there's no Mexicano have any hate towards Pacquiao!

let's face it: it's gringo's who hate Mexicanos that's why they will cheer anyone who beat a Mexicano (even Philipino, thou they are not fond of islanders either), and  give such a messed up nicknames.

But this weekend Marquez will beat Pacquiao and relieve him from this messy nickname (trust me, deep down he will be happy)!

Anyways it's gonna be one helluva night: best athlete's of our time, going at it toe to toe!

Both Greats deserve tonns of respect!

that's my 2 centavos...

peace

Answer 4

PAQUIAO IS PERFECT BOXER MEXICAN CAREER

ASASIN!

Answer 5

He has actually gained the respect of many Mexican fans after he beat two of their biggest stars of the past decade- Marco Antonio Barrera (twice) and Erik Morales (twice).  There are always going to be some who are VERY patriotic and will want to see him lose, but for the most part, he has gained their respect by being able to beat so many of their top fighters in decisive fashion.  This weekend's fight should be great as well- we'll see if Pacquiao can add Juan Manuel Marquez's name to his list of great Mexican fighters that he's beaten.

Answer 6

Maybe maybe not

Answer 7

Im Mexican and I dont hate Pacquiao, why would I? Cause he beat Mexican greats? No, this is a sport. I like the way he fights, but to be honest most Filipinos are pacnuthuggers, thats all they think of, I have met some silly pac fans who want Pacquiao to fight Kelly Pavlik, can you believe that?

Answer 8

Probably but as they should.  He has taken down some of their top contenders and will do so once again this weekend.

Answer 9

I'm Mexican and i love Pacquiao, i hate the fact that he's called the mexican assasin because he really hasnt taken them all out yet, i personally haven't heard any Mexican speak badly of Manny because he fights the way Mexicans like to see and thats all-out-non-stop fighting, so if any Mexican says they hate Manny than trust me, they arent real boxing fans.

Answer 10

I am Mexican-American and I love Pac Man.

He has a very aggresive style that all fight fans can appreciate.

It kinda sux that he beat Morales and MAB but if they were gonna lose, Im glad that it was to a true warrior like Pacquiao.

Answer 11

yah, i think its about the media..

anyways, Lets go Pacman!!

lol

Answer 12

Im Mexican and I Really respect and admire him and I wish I will be half the fighter he is, I guess people who talk smack about fighters and make it a race superiority issue are'nt real boxing fans,and the media calls him the Mexican assasin which adds to the whole race issue.Roger Mayweather called himself the Mexican Assasin until Julio Cesar Chavez Whooped his @$$ but he did sell out most of his fights.but I guess Pacquiao shows real honor and sportsmanship because he does'nt like being called that,I guess he would'nt sell as much PPV if there were'nt that much tension so I blame the media.

Answer 13

Well seeing how Pacquiao obliterated Morales and Barrera, some of Mexico's biggest names, I wouldn't be too surprised if some of them had a disliking towards him. At the same time I know many who enjoys Pacquiao style of fighting.

***ADDITIONAL***

Wow! Pacquiao fans wanting him to fight Pavlik?! - *stratches head* - They must not really love him, if they'd want to see a massacre like that.
