I would imagine a lot less Filipinos would criticise Pac. Britain is not a culture with a group think mentality, unlike the Philippines. It might explain the Pac hugger phenomenon. Many Asian (and also some non Asian coutries) have this trait, so this is no slur upon the Philippines BTW.

Finally, Frank Warren is a prick. He has never got over the fact that he tried to offer Hatton crap money and Hatton decided to walk away. He will pick every opponent against Hatton until the day Hatton retires.
Looool, I read The Guardian, I think it's a lot better than most of the UK press for the most part, although the article he quotes is a bit useless as it's written by a guy who's not even a boxing journalist & has demonstrated fuck all knowledge of the sport such as when he claimed last year that the Calzaghe-Jones fight could decide the P4P best fighter in the sport
I think the guy has a point there... After Calzaghe defeated Roy Jones, there were some who installed him as the best P4P boxer at that time... Further Calzaghe retired being the no. 2 P4P boxer in the world behind PAC...
.
Please tell me you're being sarcastic...

So if Jones had won he would have been #1

Calzaghe retired in 3rd btw, behind your boy & a certain Juan Manuel Marquez
