Has Manny Pacquiao took floyd mayweathers spot light already?

Question

if he did isnt because Pac men is action fighter and brings alot of fans to his fights and floyd on the other hand is not a action type fighter? and do any of you think that floyd will get jealous of Manny because all the attention he gets?

Answer 1

I think Oscar De La Hoya still has the number 1 seat in this category. Oscar has been getting all the spotlight since the 1990's.  Pacquiao  is a far second.  No, I don't think that Mayweather will get jealous.

Answer 2

mayweather was never a popular or exciting guy to watch because he wasn't a "tyson" type "i'm gonna knock you out" kind of fighter.. dude was just fundamentally a very good boxer (speed, footwork, defense)

pacman on the other hand is a beast and is very exciting to watch.. plus i'm filipino and there is a pride factor involved.. we love him because he represents us

Answer 3

who is mayweather??

Answer 4

I thought he already had it. I never considered PBF as the #1 P4P.

Answer 5

floyd who? manny jumped on the chance to be boxing biggest attraction . maybe manny can get some really big fights and paydays surpassing floyds then floyd would definitely be jealous.

Answer 6

I think he did even before floyd retired, so many people simply would not get excited about a floyd fight other than to see if he would lose or be forced to fight.

Most casual boxing fans want to watch a fast paced action fight and we all like KO's. Pacquiao delivered on most of his fights and if there were no KO's there was plenty of action.

I have been a boxing fan since I was little and I can tell you that floyd never really had a spotlight like DLH or Tyson had. I am glad he is retired.

Answer 7

.

Answer 9

No, because not many people vevn watch lightweights, the only reason the welterweight division got gib is because of mayweather

Answer 10

yep.... no doubt Floyd is an idiot i know he's good but he could still put 3 or 4 more great fights but paquiao iz a beast and provides alotta action!!

Answer 11

It is Philippines <--- that's the correct spelling. Though I am a Filipino I am not a Pac Fan, Also hoping sometimes that he got lost or something. But I think He really is a good P4P fighter.

But then spell my countries name correctly.

Answer 12

in boxing community, pac surpassed him in that regard a long time ago. but floyd doesnt seem to care about that, he just wants fame, he doesnt seem to care about true boxing glory. thats fine too. in the US floyd will not see his mainstream "spotlight" affected by pac, but he is not as big here as pac is in the filipines, and never would be.  still, i hope pac gets knocked out on PPV next time he fights

Answer 13

yeh as floyds gone and so has his title.

as there are a few pound 4 pound ratings so some mite say yes others no

so in my eyes he is but i no floyd will be back just look at the stones money makes the girls go round.
