Is Pacman More Popular than de la Hoya Was?

[milmascaras1]

the main reason why pacquiao is like God-like in his country is because they don't have any sports stars there! if the philippines had multiple megasports stars, do you think he'd be as popular as he is now? of course he wouldn't. those poor people, until now, had nobody to cheer for. it's good that pacquiao arrived in the philippines because that was basically a dead country, sports wise.

here in the U.S., we can pick from hundreds of sports stars in baseball, hockey, football, boxing, basketball and others. boxing isn't a mainstream sport here anymore. boxers like mike tyson, muhammad ali, oscar, sugar ray leonard are household names and pacquiao will never have the popularity of these four boxers. the only ones who know pacquiao here are boxing fans and his filipino fans. maybe pacquiao is more recognized in asia, big deal! the U.S. is the mecca of boxing and this is where popularity counts the most because this is where the biggest fans live and where the boxing money is.

When Oscar lost his fans were still behind him. They still loved him and his haters still hated him. When Pac loses you will see a drop big time. Especially on this forum and many other forums where Pac Land obsessions rave an rant on the internet. Most of his fans will diminish and 20yrs from now he will just be like Barry Bonds with a huge asterisk.....if not for roids...for beating people on there way out. Maybe a *Catch Weight / Weight Drain Asterisk. (: Can't wait to see his little lovers come to his defense in about 30 seconds lol
