FOOL?S GAME: FLOYD?S RUNNING AND PAC?S INJURY


PhilBoxing.com





One fool makes many.

It is weird beyond Einstein that there are ?humans? inclined to agree to a rematch currently being initiated and ?rejected? by the same vampires who just sucked them in the neck. New drama is in the offing. Allowing a ?Mayweather-Pacquiao? part two is like rewarding hoodlums after they violated sanities, hypnotized the world and robbed people of their fortune.

?I started a joke and it started the whole world crying?? ? Bee Gees

Though a scribe for this combat sport, I shun being a part of it for all its madness, mindlessness and utter shamelessness. I contribute articles not to be one of the countless uncanny, unfunny clowns in boxing. I write to shed light for the love, abhorrence and pity of the blind, deaf and mute among the promoters, boxers, trainers, fight officials, ?state? associations, ?sanctioning? bodies, fans, people and media.

We can easily spot jerks in the sport. They focus on the ?good? as if there is anything good that happened in ?May-Pac.? They report on ?big? PPV numbers result as if it?s not a disaster for the sport and millions of fans. They want us to forget about May-Pac as if there?s not so much to remember about it, condemn about it, grieve over it and learn from it.

A boxer was unanimously the victor in a marathon Olympic.
Floyd did not earn the win against Pacman. He only earned huge sums of money as well as the ire of a disappointed world. There was no combat on May 2, only a waste of money for those who watched the sham. When has a basketball team ever won a championship without offense? Boxing is a combat sport, but why does the sport allow a boxer who refuse fighting to be the runaway winner?

Floyd may have outpointed Pacquiao, but NEVER WON. Nay, he ?won,? but the great majority was unconvinced and unhappy. He was booed, hated and lampooned, and for reasons. The whole world seemed to have lost together with Pacquiao.

Who did Mayweather impress fighting a one-armed boxer in Pacman? Floyd didn?t prove anything in ?winning? the bout except that he is proven to be much less a good boxer than Muhammad Ali and dozens more of other boxers. Mayweather should have been pitted against Fisher or Kasparov, or Charlie Chaplin.
The Filipino pugilist was nowhere to be found in the ?super? fight. How can Pacquiao be girding up to run for the highest position of a nation if he couldn?t even figure out a basic and elementary problem when he got injured few weeks before fight night?

Pacquiao must be kidding. He should be kicking out by now each and every person in his team who was aware of his shoulder injury, yet consented or advised him to proceed with the fight instead of asking for a postponement. They must have money (not Manny) in mind as their chief concern in the Manny Team. Boxing is not a Quiz Bee contest wherein the brain is the one doing the ?fighting.?

Pacman forever lost his chance to KO and humble Mayweather.
Boxing is very physical and an extremely combative sport. What then is so hard to comprehend about the injury issue? Tom Jones is into singing, not fighting. But few years back, he cancelled his massive concert in the Philippines only one week before concert night due to lingering throat problems. May I ask, please, what?s your menu?

Ballad legend Matt Monro said we are ?Born Free.? Tragically, there are just those who are born fools. They happily deceived their kind as Floyd blindly tripped the world again, big time.
History has just been written. Boxing has died.

Be consoled.

PS ? Volumes of thoughts and analyses can be put into words about the ?May-Pac? disgrace and its continuing foolishness. The whole play may in time be aptly described and recorded as the ?Infamy of the Century of Centuries? in all of sports. Its loyal supporters, for their part, may be well remembered and damned as the sport?s ?Great Jerks? for all time. Thus I decided to cut the whole piece into three slices with this one as the first bite.
