They sleep on “Money” pillow cases and wear “Pac-Man” draws, giving new meaning to being on someone’s mind or on their ass. They pontificate as if part of their lives and know every aspect of anything ever negotiated between them.
They argue facts and decipher fiction with uncanny precision.
They troll people and they’re celibate (I think…).
They don’t have jobs – or can’t possibly be very good at one because of their free devotion.
Their fingers will become powerful weapons of mass keyboard destruction if you say something about their hero.
They are flies on the walls of Bob Arum and they hide under Al Haymon’s desk.
They are omnipotent roaches you cannot Raid, and they’ll scatter as soon as you turn the lights on (but rest assured they’ll be back). And don’t even bother trying to step on one, for they have too many cousins who’ll come running when they hear the dying screams.
But don’t take my word for it. Get on Facebook why don’t cha, and take an IQ test of a different kind. Visit say “Floyd vs. Manny: Boxing War Zone”, or “May vs. Pac: The Group”. Then there’s my personal favorites “The GREAT Manny Pacquiao” and “The Best Ever” (Oh Dear God that page lmao and smh).
Talk too much sh*t about Manny Pacquiao, and Pacturds will stink up on you. Run your mouth a little too much about Floyd Mayweather, and Flomos will send you pictures of used tampons, while calling you something foul where they can be found.
They’re amazing.
On December 12th, 2014, Flomo’s went crazy when Floyd declared what I thought (and still think) was a punk-ass challenge of Pacquiao. I haven’t Larry Merchant – whose neither Pacturd nor Flomo – but I’ll go out on a limb and tell you he feels the same way too.
Understand as I’m saying this Pacturds, that I am not a leading soldier in your army. No. And Flomo’s be advised; I don’t give a sh*t about how you feel about what I’m about to say either, but Mayweather has never had any intention of facing Pacquiao, and only offered May 2nd because he was SURE the date was tied up with Miguel Cotto vs. Saul Canelo Alvarez on Cinco de Mayo.
Flomo’s hit me with a Pac of Turds via e-mail for suggesting this happened. They ripped Bob Arum a new (old) asshole for telling us that its “disrespectful for Floyd to have that date, because its a Mexican date”.
Pacturds rightfully ask, “Well what’s so f*cking wrong with that?”
About what Arum did there and why he’s so right about what he’s saying from my “Pac-Flo” point of view… Arum isn’t saying – nor has he ever said – that a Pacquiao fight with Mayweather can’t be done on May 2nd. What’s so ridiculous about it is, Arum actually made those remarks before Floyd issued his punk-ass challenge 12/12/14. What Arum is really saying, in so many words is, its disrespectful for you to fight an Argentinean Marcos Maidana, or a Mexican with no fan base in Robert Guerrero.
Neither fight was in demand by fans, let alone Pacturds or Flomos, so it essentially wastes an important date on fights that could be done any other date.
Since I know so many Flomo’s are African American and come from the same streets I come from, what if Pacquiao made it a habit of only fighting on Martin Luther King Day? How would Pacturds make any sense if they got after Al Haymon for saying Pacquiao shouldn’t fight on that day?
Would it make sense if Floyd fought on that date? Furthermore, would it make sense if Floyd actually fought a qualified African-American like Timothy Bradley Jr.? Oh I’m sorry… He’s an HBO fighter coming off a questionable draw (Tim got a little karma for the first Pacquiao “win”, so he’s about even now), so of course, Floyd would have a built in excuse for not taking that fight with a black fighter.
But what about “black” Showtime fighter Keith “One-Time” Thurman Jr. Floyd? If Pacquiao can face a young lion in Bradley twice from the same promotional stable and network, then why can’t you? BROTHA.
But getting back to this May 2nd affair and Floyd’s presumed desire to face his nemesis, everything his body language and tone was equal parts high school and Hollywood. Less than a week after that now infamous interview, Pacquiao released a worldwide statement on ESPN basically calling Floyd’s bluff – and that date – by declaring he’s ready to fight and that its time to “give the fans what they want” and that they’ve “waited long enough.”
Then, as I highlighted in “Merry Christmas – Suckers”, a widely reported false tweet emerged from Floyd on Christmas Eve, which announced his next fight would in fact be May 2nd against Manny Pacquiao.
Pacquiao, in a tweet that was totally authentic, sent this on New Year’s Eve to boldly call out Floyd again:
***
Manny Pacquiao ✔ @MannyPacquiao Follow The ball will drop at midnight to usher in 2015. @FloydMayweather let’s not drop the ball on fighting each other next year! #LetsMakeFistory 9:51 AM – 31 Dec 2014
***
All of a sudden, Pacturds have a whole lot of ammunition and here’s why. Not only has Floyd been silent since that ridiculous see-through interview, but Pacquiao has climbed to at least #2 pound for pound on most lists. If at once it didn’t matter to Floyd when the WBC declared he was his #1 welterweight mandatory contender – now he’s directly on his ass according to world standings.
He’s made a Footlocker commercial mocking him, mocked him after the Algieri wipeout and has now issued 2 worldwide statements declaring his desire to fight Floyd anytime or anywhere. Flomo’s will tell you that Floyd has already conceded that Pacquiao is his focus next, while dismissing Amir Khan from consideration in this video, courtesy of my boys at Fight Time.
Pacturds will come back with something from a credible media source like RING Magazine and Lem Satterfield, who produced this article chronicling where things stand with Cotto/Alvarez, the May 2nd date, and an alleged $40 million offer for Mayweather/Cotto II.
Its an excellent article, and ALL boxing fans should read it. Its accurate, which is unlike anything that comes from Ben “Flomo” Thompson or FightHype. Thompson’s cell phone, laptop, credentials, cameras, vocal chords, and possibly his fingers – should be at Kim Jung Un’s crib in North Korea.
But the bottom line is this… If you are a Flomo, stop whining about Pacturd’s and Pacquiao. Focus on FLOYD. Demand he organize a press conference for all the world to see with all parties present.
If you are a Pacturd, stop bitching to Flomo’s about Floyd. Focus on MANNY. Demand he get on camera with Bob Arum, and tell us ALL that May 2nd is fine and charity is still available if need be.
Since BOTH OF YOU – “Pacturd’s and “Flomo’s” – work for charity every damn day for these fighters, the least you can do is make demands of them instead of each other.
How bout that for a New Year’s resolution?
