Hopefully a few real fans would be able to make this thread worthwile to keep with informative posts, otherwise it had best be shelved for better or for more appropriate "non-Pacquiao" related threads.
As for the legend of Pacquiao, I say there is none yet.
He has been good for the sport, making boxing again, worthwile to spend those hard earned monies for. Even the stars in Hollywood are giving-in to their interest for the thriller from Manil'er (actually General Santos). Former President Bill Clinton, took a photo ops (I'll say vice versa absolutely!) with PacMan when their paths crossed at the Mandalay Bay, in Las Vegas. Same enthusiasm given the Pac by Hollywood stars, Denzel Washington, Mark Wahlberg and etc...
Emmanuel Pacquiao has been in a lot of tough fights worthy of note, but legendary? No.
Maybe when he is retired. When there is no more of the PacMan to infuriate the non-fans. Maybe then, there maybe a semblance of realising the loss when this happens, will his place in history, just maybe, become legendary.
Now it'd be of help If the likes of true fans like Pres Clinton or Denzel Washington, and other Hollywood stars or celebrities of note, can just honor our pages for a post, just maybe, they would be able to keep this thread worthwile for Saddo to keep. (much too much wishful thinking, hehehe).
Pacquiao's legacy is only present among the minds of an appreciative fella', with the open mind and heart. They truly are the ones, just in awe of the humankind's ability to rise from the worsts of beginnings, (but with his own God-given perseverance), to the folds of riches and good life!
At present... I say just shelve it. It can be very well turn into a parade of "who can bash Pacquiao or the Pacquiao fans the best".
Pacquiao's legend? Nah! Maybe a hundred years from now!
Shelved!
