Misleading? Are you pulling my leg---> Philippine team sacks US import for Pacquiao insult

Manila (AFP) - Philippine basketball authorities have sacked and fined an American import for ridiculing national boxing hero Manny Pacquiao's quest to become a professional basketballer.

Former NBA player Daniel Orton hit the headlines last week after playing against Pacquiao in the local pro-league, a game in which the 1.69-metre (5 foot-6 inch) boxing champion scored a solitary point.

"Professional boxer, yeah, okay... professional basketball player, no. It's a joke," said Orton, 24, who signed with the Purefoods Hotshots team just this month.
Well like I said, look into the Philippine news which has more details. I literally couldn't care less but here you go:


MANILA, Philippines — Purefoods import Daniel Orton called Kia playing-coach Manny Pacquiao “a joke” shortly after the Hotshots’ 95-84 loss to the Carnival Wednesday night at the Smart Araneta Coliseum.

Orton played his worst game in the PBA finishing with only six points and three rebounds in 19 minutes as he was saddled by foul trouble. Orton, the former first round pick by the Orlando Magic in the NBA, fouled out with 1:31 left.
“This game is seriously a joke. The way the game was going, the refs took the game that I know and love and they made it into a mockery,” an upset Orton said.

When asked what it was like to see the boxing champion play basketball, Orton answered: “That’s the joke. That’s part of the joke I was talking about. Professional boxer, yeah, okay. Congressman, alright. Professional basketball player, no. It’s a joke. Seriously, it’s a joke.”

Pacquiao played in his third game and scored his first-ever point that went with an assist in four minutes and 39 seconds of action.

Purefoods have gone 1-2 during Orton’s stay after their perfect 3-0 start with stand-in import Marqus Blakely.

Purefoods Star Hotshots lost to Pacquiao’s Kia Carnival 84-95 and adding insult to the loss, Orton fouled out of the game with only six points and three rebounds in 19 minutes of play.

Purefoods Star Hotshots import Daniel Orton, who went on a tirade against PBA referees and KIA playing-coach Manny Pacquiao, will now pay up the PBA a fee of P250,000 as ordered by league Commissioner Chito Salud.

In a statement issued on Friday, Salud said that Orton “issued comments that are disparaging, disrespectful of and offensive to his host league.”

“This insulting behavior will never be condoned by this league,” Salud said in the statement.

The Commissioner’s office added that whatever the actions that Purefoods would take upon Orton, it “disapproves of and frowns upon the cavalier manner in which Mr. Orton issued his comments and unwarranted antics and liberties he has taken with the league and a fellow player.”

His Team record with Orton playing them 1 win 2 losses one of which is with the expansion Team KIA where Pac is a Playing Coach.

Orton was not sent home by the PBA only fined, it was the team who he's playing with that send him home. He will be send home anyways whether he said that "joke" or not.

Okay...Pacquaio is absolved...now on to my Pay Pal question that you answered. I'm looking at the poll you posted and it seems there is some confidence in Pacquaio winning this fight wether by decision or by KO...so I'm figuring to place a wager something like $500.00 in the Open Forum...that Mayweather will win on May 2nd.

On May 1st...I will place $500.00 in your Pay Pal account and any Siccness member or members who want to wager against me for the whole amount (1 person) or a number of people in different smaller increments that add up to $500.00 can place a bet against the total. They will have to Pay Pal you their wager. I don't think anyone should have an issue with your credibility and you are the "Boxing God" of Siccness.net

For your time you get 5% of the total money being handled ($1,000.00 = $50.00) for facilitating the the bet or bets.

Note: If it is a draw...you still get your 5%, the rest of the money will be returned to the betters with no winner in this scenario. Betters have to abide by the final decision even if it a controversial decision (Pacquaio vs Bradely) or if the fight goes to the score cards early for whatever reason.

I don't have enough confidence in Pacquiao winning to make any bets. Everything tells me Mayweather is going to win, but I picked Pac anyways solely on a gut feeling.

If you can find enough people willing to bet, I could do that for a cut. It's a lot of responsibility for me to track all that stuff and pay the people what they need, etc.

I told you in 2010 I thought Floyd would win, there is no secret here I've always said that I give the edge to Floyd (I think it will be close either way). I wouldn't bet money on Floyd either because I have no idea what's going to happen (Floyd has never fought anyone like Manny and Manny has never fought anyone like Floyd).

Favorite fighter? Trippin. I'm a registered Nard-Tard & captain of the GGG fan club.

BERNARD HOPKINS EXPLAINS WHY AFTER 6 ROUNDS, MANNY PACQUIAO WILL BE TARGET PRACTICE FOR FLOYD MAYWEATHER



"Not only will I break the fight down for you, I will give you a prediction. Now, I could be wrong, but then again, I could be right. The first 5 or 6 rounds, it's going to be a back and fourth fight because of Pacquiao's aggression. But Pacquiao is not the best defensive fighter. Mayweather is going to sharp shoot, and not only is Mayweather going to fight back when he needs to, but after that 6th round, it's done," stated future Hall of Famer Bernard Hopkins, who gave his official prediction on the long-awaited May 2 showdown between undefeated pound-for-pound king Floyd Mayweather and 8-division world champion Manny Pacquiao. According to Hopkins, after the first 6 rounds of the fight, Mayweather will begin to dominate to the point that some fans will be upset.

"Hey, listen, there will be people that's so upset because they charging people money, they are going to be so upset because in the second half, it somehow turned into such easy work that they are going to feel like there was some type of corruption or foul play or pollution in the air. They are gonna make up all kinds of excuses (laughing). I believe the second half of these 12 rounds gonna be target practice for Floyd. And it's going to be a situation where, is he putting a show on just so people can get their monies worth or is it just that easy. That's my bold statement and I stick by it, now let's wait 8 to 9 weeks and see what happens," Hopkins explained during a recent conversation with FightHype.com. "The fans have spoken and they delivered. It's better late than never. Enjoy the super fight, our Super Bowl of fights this year, and this is the beginning, I hope, of big fights to come, whether it's Golden Boy or any other promotional outlet. At the end of the day, if everybody step their game up, you don't have to complain; just do! Thank you and continue to support boxing!"

He's easily in my top 10 fighters to watch. Floyd is in there as well. I don't really have favorite fighters, outside of a couple guys, it's more that I have favorite fighters to watch in the ring. I don't care a whole lot about Pacquiao the person, I care about watching him fight as he's been easily one of the more entertaining fighters over the years. Doesn't have anything to do with ethnicity, I like all fighters from everywhere all over the globe. I'm a fan of the sport first and foremost.

Why the hell would I wager you with Manny at -105 ? I can easily get +200 (probably +250 come fight time) on any other book out there.

Since you want to go 2.5 in your favor, let's flip that.
Give us +500 and I'm sure you will have plenty of takers.

Your pick em offer is insulting to any capper to say the least.

I hear you...but I'm not tryna have 2-0-6 calculating and crunching numbers like that...then he will go from a 5% to a 15% fee (which falls on us the betters) and if he gets someone's earrings wrong by 1% everybody wanna cry Bloody murder. Also I'm trying to attract hardcore Pacquiao fans who truly believe that their idol will win...damn the odds.

He's a Russian commie atheist.
This is all you need to know CZAR @CZAR .

HERESY speaks truth. Our battle is eternal, it transcends race, nationality, time and space. At one point hundreds of years ago I was a Mongolian assassin, and HERESY a mere Chinese peasant. Our roles have reversed thousands of times, but the battle has always remained the same.
