Preach on Erik!
Pacman hand picks fighters, I will never be impressed with that little Filipino Fraud.
If he beats Mayweather Jr. their will be something shady about it, I never ever seen pacquiao ever have a credible win.

Erik, are you kidding me? Manny might have been a favorite on the betting lines but it seemed most the boxing shows, radio shows and podcasts were all wondering if manny could handle these guys punches. Even boxing experts were picking these so called bigger guys to beat Manny. If you go back to any of the boxing podcasts alone you will know what I’m talking about.

Stupid article…Pacman is a fake he aint special, floyd jr is special and inteligent stop hugging on pacmans you know what.
Pacman is far from smart, hey even i could of beat oscar, hatton and a shot cotto.

Hey Bob, what, and you think Mayweather doesn’t hand pick his opponents? Tell me who you think manny should fight for you to be impressed with him? It’s like, people like you want him to go all the way to heavyweight before he gets any recognition.

Shocked? Are you kidding me? Who in their rightmind actually expected Hatton, Cotto, and MAYWEATHER to have a chance? Pacyaow hasn’t shocked anyone…….

Erik saying this in the future!

Michael
Floyd mayweather cleaned out 130 pounds and fought way better PRIME fighters in his career.
Manny got knocked out by a filipino ditch digger and a thai waiter.
Floyd is undefeated and one of the most clean boxers never been hit flush or cut.

Its because he’s ASIAN. This is an issue with race and someone suffering from some form of inferiority complex

You must be kidding, theres always jealousy and the desire to cut down greatness. Manny is the greatest boxer alive right now, mayweather knows this which is why he so hesitant to take the fight. Funny how you are already making excuses for mayweathers defeat, thats classic.

erik, bob mason, jimenez and micheal are all stupid idiot… how about loudmouth picked JMM?

hand picks opponent? who? pacquiao?

Look at this for a bit.

Two welterweights; Mayweather and Cotto. both fighting smaller mens. One smaller man is out classed the other smaller man outclasses the bigger welterweight. Isn’t odd that people critisize the smaller man that put a wallup on the bigger welterweight and accuses him of hand picking his opponent when he was against the odds. Then floyd fans don’t critisize him for picking a smaller featherweight to fight.

Hey Erik and Bob are you nuts! you really don’t give credit of what PACMAN has done! He fight with bigger opponent unlike your Idol PBF fight with small bloated fighter. Wait until your Idol Meet PACMAN in the ring if he’ll not duck the small PACMAN. First time you’ll see your idol’s face to be crush blooded! Hope PBF will not duck PACMAN this will be great fight.

erik, bob mason, jimenez and micheal are all stupid idiot…
loudmouth never fight mosley, margarito, cotto and paquiao… he wants to fight a small guy…
paquiao is a small in welterweight division but big in heart.

as far as i remember, it is Floyd who chooses opponents he knew he could beat. Floyd had a chance to fight Cotto but he ducked him (as well as Mosley, Margarito and Williams) and chose to retire instead, but Manny fought him and won convincily..

Floyd predicted that his fight with Marquez will be outnumbered by Pacquiao-Cotto fight in terms of PPV sales because Floyd said Manny had a good dance partner unlike Marquez, my question is why in the world Floyd chose Marquez if he knew he would not be that much of a PPV star, isn’t that fighting someone he knew he could beat?

people who does’nt accept what PACMAN did to boxing is completely IDIOT…

A blind man will see what he wants to see. When his fighter wins, he will see him as a champion. When he loses, he will only see excuses why he lost. Only a man who looks at things objectively and with all honesty will he be able to conquer his own battles. If you know you are a fan of someone, better not say anything lest you go down the pit of your own hatred and biased comment. It will be your own ruin because you have already allowed yourself to be swayed by your own emotion.

if you listen to BERT SUGAR the legendary boxing expert…
PACMAN is one of ALL TIME GREAT…

erik, bob mason, jimenez and micheal are all stupid idiot expert!!!

… my previous comment was for you who reads this (whether you are a pac or flowd fan) …

… but kudos to the writer, Dar Mead, for struggling to write according to his most honest assessment. You should write some more …

jdjjd

erik, bob mason, jimenez and micheal purchased the Pac vs. Cotto PPV! LOL

fm vs mp would be a great fight all speculations aside you guys know that would be a great fight it would be huge in ppv sales and major paydays for both fighters is fm doesnt take this fight it could only mean one thing…hes scared. mp said hes ready for this one and i believe him sp floyed make it happen i believe your a great fighter maybe even the best but youll never know for sure if you dont fight manny thats it enough said.

Mayweather’s ability to adjust to any type of fight is so complex that 99 percent of the people who watch him fight don’t even see his abilities. He is beyond ridiculously amazing at dealing with adversity. When he was rising through the ranks, most people weren’t paying attention to his weight class, which is why most of you morons think that pacquiao would ever win. Mayweather is such a gifted fighter that you can count on one hand the number of times he’s been hit with a clean punch in his entire CAREER. If Cotto was even able to hit Manny, which he was, Pacquiao has no shot. Watch. Mayweather will expose every mistake Manny makes. He’s on a whole different level, and this will prove true when it goes down.

Of course Manny Pacquiao hand picks his opponents!!! That’s why he’s hand picking Floyd Mayweathers!!! And when Manny beats Floyd, will be old and past his prime, he’ll be dehydrated and overated. Don’t forget, the Philippines is known for it’s sophisticated science in enhancement drugs. Same excuses, different opponent…

how can you guys say pacquio hand picks fights lol for a start after seeing how well oscar did against mayweather (mayweather only getting split dec), i never expected pacquio to demolish the bigger dela hoya, and every1 saying b4 that fight was what the hell is oscar doing fighting a lil guy and what will it prove! no one give pacquio a chance lol and he won, i never thort he would beat cotto but i admit i thort he would beat hatton although i thort it could be close, pacquio is amazing its that simple hes blowing away all the big boys and floyds next and hopefully mosely after that, floyd mayweather handpicks opponents he knows he can beat look at his record compared to pacquios, pacquio has much more noteable wins!

Manny is one of the greatest fighters of all time. Floyd Mayweather is also a great fighter, but us real boxing fans never really liked his style because of the fact that he is too defensive. Another problem with Mayweather is he has always avoided serious competition in order to prevent blemishing his record such as a fight with Cotto, Mosley, Williams, etc. Manny has NEVER backed down from a challenge and has accomplished what no other fighter in the world has done. 7 time world champ.
If Mayweather wants to prove he’s the best he must beat the best of his exact opposite fighting style. If he doesn’t take this fight then we all know why. Great article by the way.

Picture this: Mayweather vs Mayweather

Who wins?

All I can say is Pacquiao will never be recognized in the eyes of those Americans who only believe in American boxers.

people here that can’t see pacquiao’s greatness are uneducated and moronic just like mayweather senior who is a high school dropout. any opinions from these people should be ignored because their opinion holds no value — think about this, why should I listen to a person that works at McDonalds — you don’t.

Sheesh some of the guys who think pacquiao has no chance on winning a fight with mayweather must be a brain dead zombie or a complete idiot.

Sure pac can be hit BUT CAN FLOYD HIT HARD ENOUGH?

I dont think so, because if he can he wouldnt be running most of the time in the ring!!

Erik,Bob,Jimenez, lou block and gayweather. guys do you notice what this guys have in common? THEY ARE BLACK. pls dont consider your self americans. you know who you are and where you are. im just angry coz this people cannot accept if there is other people who overwhealm their accomplishments. instead of respecting they are discrediting. what a shame. you are not even considered as americans. because all of you are AFRICAN BLACK GORILLAZ FROM THE POORES COUNTRY OF AFRICA

Hey Fanatic, If you read my comment properly you would see that I am for pacman and againts what Erik and Bob had to say. Learn how to read and write properly because you are the one sounding like an idiot to me. Stop embarrassing yourself

Do you really think Floyd would fight Pacman after what happened on the Cotto fight ? He’ll ask for an arm and a leg for this fight to stop the negotiation. They haven’t started negotiation and he’s already giving excuses saying Pac is on steroids. And yeah, Philippines is best source for high quality PEDs. Like father like son. Do they even know where Philippines is ? It’s a third world country and you expect them to produce the best PEDs ? They can’t even afford to use them. But of course the Mayweathers won’t understand these. School is not a priority growing up. Floyd Sr, just a suggestion, instead of selling crack there’s a better way to earn money. Import the best PEDs from a poor country that even the Nevada Sports Commission’s most strict drug screening can’t detect and sell it to MLB players then you’ll earn a lot of money … more than what your son says he makes.

Bob, manny’s knock out losses came when he was just a kid, he didn’t have an extensive amatuer background like your boy floyd. he has had to learn how to fight during his proffessional career. You mention floyd cleaning out the 130 lb weigt division, tell me this, what has happened since then? His moved up to 147 lbs. That’s 3 weight divisons he has moved up and you can only bring up one weight division. You stil haven’t answered my question either. Who the hell does manny need to fight to get recognition from guys like you? I don’t see floyd fighting cotto, as a matter of fact he has ducked him. I saw an interview where they asked floyd if he wanted to fight cotto and he couldn’t give out a decent answer. Check out you tube.

cotto hit pacman many times but he just eat them like peanuts. but cotto can’t handle the punches he received from pacman. that will happen to gayweather, he will be closing his eyes before the 9th round. once pacquiao punch the body of gayweather he will think twice if he will cover his head or body. and after he lost to pacquiao, gayweather will be getting peanut contract or retire from humilation.

Mayweather will not take this fight. The risk to Mayweather may ultimately exceed his desire for the biggest single payday in the history of the sport. He simply has much more to lose than Pacquiao.

If Pacquiao loses, he still has the historical 7 titles in 7 divisions. Who’s going to catch him there? It would be an even more decisive “wrap” if he could make it 8 titles in 8 divisions, but that’s another discussion for another day. Pacquiao has losses on his record so another one at this point would not greatly diminish his position among the greatest of all time.

If Mayweather loses, he no longer has his biggest point to argue his unmatched superiority, his undefeated status. That “0″ on his record is what is keeping him in the conversation of greatest of this generation, of this century, even of all time. However, Mayweather’s resume of opposition, especially in his current weight class, falls short of those that are mentioned as truly great fighters… even the notion, weather actual or otherwise, that he has not fought the best in his weight class hurts his legacy and a loss would only raise more suspicion that his record was gained through the path of least resistance. A loss now would see his lofty placement in the company of the all time greats plummet back to the scope of “extrememly good” boxers, but not all time “great” boxers. Most of all a loss would irreversibly hurt Mayweather’s drawing ability as more and more PPV customers are actually buying his fights to witness him losing. If he is no longer undefeated, interest in his future performances will be reduced to a fraction of what he commands today. If Mayweather were to avoid this fight, he could possibly fight 2-3 fights on PPV with lesser threats to earn the amount he passes up here… and keep his “perfect” record intact.

7 in 7 will not change as a record first in boxing and may very well be out of reach for upcoming fighters for decades, if not ever to be repeated. Conversely, an undefeated carreer has been done before, and does not really mean a fighter was the best, just that he was not beaten by anyone he faced.

Floyd is a FRaud!!! FAther and Son!!!

Just read the spoof interview! it is the closest thing to the truth!!! PBF is so scared of PAC that it would be a cold day in hell if ever he fights him!!!

I don’t think Pacquiao could be Mayweather, I’m not a Mayweather fan but Pac-Man is a fighter & Mayweather is a boxer a smart boxer who trains his self against any fighter he fights it’s like he knows them better than they do. If Cotto was a boxer and didn’t fight a dumb fight he could’ve won the fight but he wanted to slug it out with a Pacquiao and that’s why he lost, Mayweather will not fight a dumb fight and that’s why Mayweather will win

It was expected that Pacquiao would beat Hatton and Cotto aswell. You had a point showing the guard of Cotto when he got hit, but the truth is that Cotto is not very hard to hit; I mean Joshua Clottey hit him with many combo’s in the fight before the Pacquiao fight. If you noticed Cotto fights with a syle where he’s crouched forward, Mayweather is leaning back alot so that he can see where the punches are coming from, and when you add in his speed and reflexes you have a fighter who is %100 different from Oscar, Ricky, and Miguel. A matter of fact all those 3 boxers fit Manny’s style of boxing, because their foot work is not that good, they all are not difficult to hit, and they like to trade punches, and slug it out; the complete opposite of Floyd Mayweather Jr. Floyd= great speed, great defense, great foot work, great boxer, period.

Maybe I can finaly put this to rest. People bring up the fact that Pacquiao beat Oscar and Ricky Hatton more easier than Floyd Mayweather Jr; that is true, but what exactly does it mean? It just means that their style of fighting was more fit for his style of fighting. Before Ricky Hatton had fought Mayweather Jr he beat one of Floyd’s previous opponents easily when Floyd had went the distance against him and won by decission; then Hatton fought Mayweather and he lost. Styles make fights, that’s the oldest rule in boxing.

I havent seen anybody mention the fact that its
MAYWEATHER who is actually Asking for this
fight to happen NOT PACMAN,
I take my hat off to Pac for what he did to Cotto
but lets be honest here, Mayweather is the better
BOXER hands down, theres nobody alive today
who even Fairly compares to Floyd..
I see people mention the De La Hoya fights,
but what your leaving out is the fact that
Floyd faught Oscar at his natural weight,
Pacman fought an EXTREMELY underweight De La Hoya
whos never EVER had to cut weight like that
in a fight before – thus making Oscar useless
and it showed.
Now before you Pacman fanatics come in and try
to downplay the truth, let me make something
clear – i am in no way a Mayweather fanboy
im just a Boxing fan period,
And in my honest and humble opinion
i just dont see how Pacman is going to get
past Floyds Defense.. We all know Mayweather
WILL NOT KO Pacman, but see Floyd doing what
he does best, and thats simply Outclassing
Pacman and winning a 12 Round Decision

It will be a fantastic fight, an incredibly ferocious and skilled offensive fighter like pacquiao, versus the minister of defence floyd mayweather.

You simply cannot imagine a better match up than these two legends!!!

and… people forget that Roach will have a game plan for Mayweather. In his words, Mayweather is a “fragile guy” and his strategy is for the Pac to break him down with punches to his body – arms, shoulders, ribs. See how Cotto folded with the Pacman’s body shot.

REMEMBER THIS. Floyd will be fighting the fastest and strongest guy he has EVER faced. His 10 rounds with Hatton ( Hatton was in the game until the 10th) would be entirely different with a 10 round with the Pacman, where he will be defending against howitzers and bazookas like he won’t believe. just THINK ABOUT IT.

Frankly, I don’t think Floyd would fight the Pacman. He knows the Pac manhandled the guy he refused to fight, the reason for his retirement – Miguel Cotto.

you got it right on the money bro! hope this fight happens! i cant wait!

to erik, bob mason, jimenez and michael – seems to me you all lose putting your money on cotto against pacman. i mean are you greater than boxing experts who praised pacquiao naming him one of the greatest??? im not a filipino but i like pacman not only as a boxer but as a man with humility. he’s in every other way a gentleman.

Floyd is a awesome fighter. But he has avoided the best ones out there now… scared he’ll lose the 0. The whole world knows that. Only a few (some of them here posting comments) are still in denial. 95% of the whole world knows that Pacman is the greatest fighter of this generation, they also know that Floyd is good but not as good as he claims to be. The 5% of you have to wakeup and accept reality.

some people think the can be a boxer! but no. Manny is the best and floy is good but when this fight started floyd will start running again! and he know he can’t stay on the rope. Manny will kill him on the rope so what he can do is run like a baby! and that’s the real thing.

I think Floyd will fight Pacquiao for the main reason people think that he won’t…to prove that he’s not afraid of him. And when they do fight I think both fighters will present a problem for the other…I just think that Floyd’s defensive speed will be too much for Pacquiao to overcome. In this article there was a clip that showed Cotto using a stance similar to Floyd…but, he doesn’t have the instincts to roll away from the punch like Floyd would, doesn’t have the lateral quickness that Floyd has to avoid contact, and he allowed himself to get caught into Pacquiao’s kind of fight…and that’s to trade shots at close range. The split second that Pacquiao tries to close the distance and slug it’ll become a boxing match because he won’t have a stationary target…he’ll have to work to get his combinations to connect, if they connect, which changes the game plan.

And as far as Manny outgunning Floyd’s counter punches…let’s be for real…he’s fast, but Floyd is a little bit faster and quicker.

And my last point is, Pacquiao may be the best fighter of this generation, but Floyd is the best ‘boxer’. I like both of them, but it’s annoying to hear all these people all over Pacquiao when nobody was saying anything about him until he fought Oscar, now he’s the greatest fighter of the past decade. I’ll be glad when this fight happens so that all of those who think Floyd is going to lay down and die get to witness perhaps the greatest defensive fighter of this era go up against the best offensive fighter of the past 4 – 5 years…and watch as an old saying is proven again…a great defense will always prevail over a great offense. This fight has the makings of Leonard/Hagler all over again…with the same result – the boxer will beat the puncher.

And to sapul ka, when this fight starts, Manny better have a better defensive strategy other than let his nose and chin defend against the jab. When Floyd does utilize the jab, it’s coming 2 times faster than Cotto’s was, meaning Manny has to have some kind of defensive strategy other than to try to outpunch his opponent…because more than half of those shots are going to miss the target…but I’m not going to go into predicting the fight other than to say to you, and everybody else who’s expecting a shutout or a knockout…GET REAL!!! Pacquiao’s going up against somebody who’s in just as good of shape as he is…maybe better…who’s just as good a boxer as he is a puncher…it’s not going to be open and shut for either of them, but my money’s on Mayweather…that defense…you can call it running, but whatever it is, it’s going to work for him.

The video graphic you showed to give example of how Pacquiao could take advantage of Mayweather’s shell defense does not show Miguel Cotto adopting Mayweather’s shell defense. The left shoulder roll is a key component to the Mayweather shell defense and Cotto is not quite capable of implementing it even if he tried. But his defense is not Pacquiao’s biggest problem. The Pacman will be frustrated if not hurt by Mayweather’s counter punching ability. He has been shown to be vunerable to good counter punching by Marquez. And with Floyd it gets to a point, usually some time after the 4th or 5th rounds of his fights, that he starts threatening his opponent with the counters. And the mere threat of being countered is often enough to keep an opponent off balance and out of rhthym. This effect that good counter punching ability can have on a fight is even more marked after the counter punches have landed cleanly in repitition for a couple of rounds. But these are both very good fighters and you never know what will happen.

Defense my ass ! This is a fight to the finish – the man with brawn and guts will prevail here. Defending against bow and arrow is quite different than howitzers and bazookas from the Pacman, from someone who is AS FAST AS MAYWEATHER.

Pacquio will shoot him with the slightest opening in his ribs until it breaks.

Forget about Marquez because Pacquiao is a born again boxer after the DIAZ fight, when he went up in weight was beating up bigger guys. Besides, Marquez could never ever beat de la Hoya and Cotto so quit mentioning his name. Last I heard Cotto was manhandled by the Pac. This victory erases Marquez from the equation. Let him fight the Pacman at 143 to 147 and he’s toast.

Mayweather havnt fought someone who can punch as fast as Many and Many Havnt fought someone who reads an opponent as good as mayweather.. I think this is the fight where the fighter w/ a bigger heart for boxing wins not w/ a bigger heart for cash

This would be one of the greatest fight in boxing history. The best defense is offense.

PM’s defense is his offense. its good defending against those pacman hooks but you wont win if you dont attack and you cant attack coz u’r being attacked. I think people should look at PM’s corner too… if floyd wants to play chess theres a chess master right at PM’s back…

CHECK MATE!!

by the way Im a pacman fan but u’ll have to give credit on floyds hit and run style.. Its perfectly legal.. boxing was not created to have two guys punch their way to death. also Floyd beats his opponents even before the fight with trash talks. that’s his style we cant judge a good fighter form those traits.

about picking fights. both can be accused of picking fights (though I dont buy it).. Picking an opponent is perfectly legal.

Speaking of loses, 2 of Manny’s were during his early days as a boxer. He went direct to pro. Was Mayweather’s record as an amateur also perfect? Will somebody tell me?

(Mayweather exposed, and contradicts himself.)

(Shocking clip and view of the Mayweather & Ellerbe relationship)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3s9Ml-dgl7I

hands up to floyd and pacman thier both great figthers. but wat i think ,pacman with 2ko and 1ud to morales and on a roll with victories over dhoya, hatton,cotto,is still going to his peak . unlike floyd he knows he rich his peak and now on the downside thats why his so afraid of pacman his afraid losing 0 loss record.but his great as he said he was,he must fight pacman regardless of who get the bigger share

This is for the person that wrote this article. If you knew anything about boxing you would know that Floyd Mayweather doesn’t leave the left side of his face exposed like Cotto did in your video. Floyd tucks his left jaw and chin behind his left shoulder and uses the right hand as a shell for the right side. He’s one of the only boxers to use his shoulders as a defensive mechanism. That’s why he’s so hard to hit. Floyd is a boxing technician, I can’t see Pacquiao beating Floyd exspecially not when Pacquiao throws so many wild punches leaving himself exposed.

Hey Doge,
You sound like a complete racist. As far as I know manny never finished school or freddie roach . So should we not listen to those people. Even Buboy is uneducated. So, should we discount him too.I hate when people spew ignorance because you end up sounding like a complete idiot. Bottom line, Floyd is a skilled defensive, counter puncher and manny is a aggressive puncher who has an unorthodox style which can pose some problems for mayweather.They both have speed. Who is faster ? We don’t know because neither one of us been in the ring with them.However, when I watched the Zab judah fight. I notice Zab won the first couple of rounds with the left punch. Zab has speed too. So I can only imagine what the fight might be like with manny. For me , without all the racist bs you guys write, it makes for a great fight. I take nothing from these fighters.

i have an update for you Ray,couple o f yrs pac had just enrolled and finished a college course,so he finished school now ok

Pacquiao v Mayweather Jr.? Ummm, I’ve always bet my money on Pacquaio. I made a lot money so far! Pacquiao KO 8 rd! Anyone want to bet against the Pacman? Just say so…drop me an email.

Manny already cemented his legacy and Floyd is desperately trying to establish his. Floyd’s idea of a legacy is staying undefeated, which unfortunately pales in comparison to what Manny has accomplished. Right now, Floyd needs this fight more than Manny. Manny should announce his retirement just to piss off Floyd.

Manny Pacquiao is so strong and brave when he goes out there with his giant, hittable, Asian head. It’s so impressive when he out-speeds slower, pre-broken, ex-greats coming off of devastating losses! Back when he was a lightweight, watching him go shot for shot with come forward Mexican fighters really proved to me that he could hit a wall moving at him. The way he throws his hands around like a cartoon character is so menacing, especially when he’s leaving the aforementioned head and brittle ribs wide open in the process! His short little legs shuffle around like an excited basset hound – I’m sure they’ll be effective enough to catch Floyd’s gazelle-like stride. His game plan of getting hit by Cotto at Cotto’s will, before, during and after Cotto had a Marguerito flashback, really showed Manny’s range. And that mustache! He is so handsome. No wonder he never gets tired. Who could get tired of that mustache? Did you know he grew up in the streets, unlike 99% of the world’s pugilists? That means he is tough. And Freddie Roach is the Bill Belacek of boxing. Does the other team have a chance? No, just ask Hopkins and De La Hoya. Manny will cut through Mayweather’s shoulder like butter with Roach’s help. Mayweather won’t be able to smack his gargantuan head around and then hold him, because he’s… lefty?

In actuality, boxing is hit and don’t be hit, not throw weird stuff on slow people and see what lands. I could crush both Manny and Floyd with my punches on the heavybag, as I am much stronger than both of them, but that wouldn’t buy me a bucket of piss in the boxing ring, because they would be moving and timing me. Now ask yourself who does that more effectively and you’ll stop kidding yourself about a little Filipino pop singer beating someone who knows how to box.

The defense shown in this videdo by cotto is not even remotely similar to floyd’s defense. cotto was simply covering the right side of his face as manny came in. floyd covers the right side and rolls the left shoulder which protects his chin, which is where cotto got hit. also floyd can flip the shell defense to any side he wants to adjust to a southpaw. manny has not seen a fighter with floyd’s ability. oscar was dehydrated trying to make that weight, hatton gave him no respect for his power,but cotto was an impressive victory against a good fighter. yet he’s not in floyds league.

how do u handpick? Barrera JM Marquez and Morales, other than pacquaio, other than Pacquaio and Mayweather the three other best fighters below lightweight of this decade

Bob Mason what a fool, why did Mayweather never fight these guys only Marquez way above the weight he was comfortable in?

Why has Mayweather never fought a welter weight as good as Mosley, Margarito or Cotto??? Pacquio fought one of them and he wasn’t really in the divsion Floyd was in there for years

Why did floyd disappear wen P Williams, Cotto, Margarito wanted to fight him, suddenly wen a small guy marquez someone who shouldnt really fight above lightweight, called him out, why didnt he respond to all the Welters who called him out, P Will would own floyd thats why Roger mayweather says the fight will NEVER happen

Are you seriously comparing Cotto’s defense to Mayweather’s? Everyone hits Cotto and Pacquiao. Who lands clean against Mayweather? Please use another analogy or different information to why you think Pacquiao could win, because it makes you sound ridiculous to compare a punch landed against Cotto’s defense with the possibility that he would land a similar punch against Mayweather’s defense. Ridiculous

Manny vs Floyd fight has very slim chance to happen. Floyd doesn’t want to accept the fight yet, he is still trying to insert conditions that could kill the negotiation. He is just forced to make a fight with Manny and trying his best with the help of his team to formulate a very good excuse to go out of it. I’m sick of this coward boxer, the next thing we will hear from Floyd’s camp is they want to postpone the fight coz of fake injury knowing that Manny is running in next year’s election.

On a typical FLOYD move, he and his team gave pacquiao 2 tough choices, MARCH and MAY. fraud knew MARCH would be too soon and MAY is impossible coz of pac’s political ambitions. If pacquiao declined both dates, floyd would have been running his mouth declaring victory granting interviews on how pacquiao ducked him, but it appears pac is fine with MARCH which could have caught floyd off guard. It was also earlier reported that floyd was asking for 154 lbs and 10oz pillow gloves.

We all hope this fight happens but arum looks pissed off right now he passed off the negotiations to his right hand man todd buoef after richard shaefer called the meeting off with jerry jones. Arum was also quoted as saying that GBP has some hidden agenda behind it. It is very unusual for loudmouth family being so silent after Manny’s acceptance of March 13 fight date. Are they not expecting Manny’s decision? What now Floyd, are you trap of your own bluff? What a gayish act.

floyd, is a good fighter using a boxing style and speed as a boxer. pacman is a fighter using his power punch and speed in boxing.

what is most impressive fight to you.. a boxer who will hit and run run run and hit and runn..
or a boxer who will fight fight fight….

if you a boxing fan who like most fight than running you preffered pacman and you will call the style of floyd a boring fighter..

but if you are a fan of floyd and really want to see more 12rnd fight for the good of PPV you preffered floyd..

hmmmm.

question:
WHAT’S THE REAL MEANING OF “BOXING”? And WHAT REALLY BOXING FAN WANT A BRUTAL WIN OR A CLASSICAL FIGHT?

– HOPE TO HEAR YOUR OPINION :::: =^_^=

The day after the BIG FIGHT.

March 14th, 2010

Sports Section Headline Title: EASY MONEY!

On Saturday night at the Las Vegas MGM Grand, Mayweather proved he was the Number One Pound for Pound King as he thoroughly dominated Pacquiao in a thrilling 12th round unanimous decision victory. For the first time in years, the hype of a much anticipated superfight lived up to expectations. Entering the ring as a 2-1 favorite, it was clear what Pacquiao’s strategy would be; “Catch Mayweather if you can”. This proved a tough assignment as Pacquiao quickly and often became frustrated with the very elusive Mayweather. Rounds 1 and 2 looked like a game of stick and move for Mayweather. Round 3 was the best round for Pacquiao as he manage to land a hard right, followed by a 3 punch combination to Floyd’s body. By round 4, Pacquiao appeared to be winded as he stopped in the middle of the ring and looked at Mayweather as if to say; “are you going to fight”. Mid way into the 4th round, Pacquiao manage to briefly catch Mayweather in the corner, but couldn’t land anything significant. Mayweather on the other hand, continuously landed hard jabs, right crosses, and left hooks all night to Pacquiao’s face and torso. Rounds 5 and 6 were identical to round 4. By round 7, it was all to clear that Pacquiao would need to change his strategy if he had any hopes of getting back in the fight. His face began to swell badly, and blood began to stream from his right eye brow and nose. He followed Mayweather around the ring desperately trying to land something, anything. In the beginning of round eight, Pacquiao fans tried to boost their fighter with shouts of Manny!…Manny! Pacquiao tried everything, but couldn’t land anything. Every time it appeared he had Mayweather trapped in the corner, Floyd would land a hard right and move away quickly. Two minutes and fourty seven seconds left in round eight, Mayweather drops Pacquiao with a perfectly timed left hook, and for a moment, the fight almost looked like Mayweather/Hatten. Pacquiao got up at the count of seven and continued to follow Mayweather around the ring. By round ten, Pacquaio’s face was badly swollen with blood comming from both eyes, nose and mouth. Rounds 11 and 12 again were all won by Mayweather. Mayweather wins with another virtuoso exhibition and the unanimous decision.
