The "All Things Mayweather/Pacquiao" Express!!!!!!

Who's to say it wasn't on the verge of happening?

 

floyd waits until you get past your prime to fight you. hopefully manny has enough left in the tank to beat him

 

Pac gives us a little insight into what he will be focusing on. Nothing to surprising, but somethings are reassuring.

"Focus on this fight is throwing a lot of punches, movement, speed, and, of course, head movement." - Pacquiao

Particularly liked hearing the head movement. That'll be extremely important. He caused Marquez some confusion in the 4th fight with the amount of head movement he was using. It seems it will be a strong focus again for this fight.

 

Very true.

 

:yep only his groupie fans will disagree with you:roll:

 

Pacquiao is not nearly as past his prime as the other fighters Floyd fought. Pacquiao is still extremely dangerous, still beating top p4p fighters. Bradley when asked to compare pacquiao of before the KO when he fought him and then the their rematch in April, "honestly, the same. His stamina's great, his speed is still there, his power is still there."

All credit in the world to whoever wins this fight.

 

he is not the same fighter we witnessed almost 6 years ago when he blitzed cotto. floyd and co know that and are relieved for that

 

PAC hasn't slowed down as much as some people think.... His win over Bradley is arguably better then anything Floyd has done in 5 years

 

Honesty, Cotto was tougher competition than anyone Pac's faced in the past 4 years, so I'm surprised he looked amazing. He's still done great, but I don't think he's truly been tested like that since then.With that said, I definitely believe the higher the competition, the better Pacquiao will perform. I see it happen with elite athletes all the time.

So, come fight night on May 2nd, I think you'll see one of the best Pacquiao and Mayweather performances.

 

:deal

in the words of floyd "he is shot and i picked the right time"ROFL

 

Hello guys, newbie here and was just reading all your posts for the couple of years. This match would be a classic - I hope, and its really hard to predict the outcome but I guess who would be in a tremendous shape would win this one.

 

Spare yourself. If you're looking for genuine, honest boxing fans who want to a-nalytically, unbiasedly break down this fight... this forum is not your answer. You'll only find fl***s and pac****s

 

I kinda know that Abuffy, been in this site for a while. But there are a couple of posters who are somewhat boxing intellects and I know your one of them. Am just hoping for a nice conversation on this topic lol.

 

I'd love to have a nice conversation on this topic. Seems rare to come by nowadays. Anything in particular you wanna discuss, just let me know. :good

 

Personally I do think that no one actually was dodging this fight. Not that one is afraid of the other but because of the money involved. Its either one of the party may it either be Pac or Floyd or even their managers or probably even both parties who have decided that this fight would take years before its fruition. Assuming Pac or Floyd fought 5 years ago and One of them was beaten black and blue by the other, do you think he would still be able to ask the pay he was asking for? I don't think so. Assuming if Mayweather was knocked-out cold if the fight happened years ago, would he still be ranking the pay-per-view he is receiving?
