    What will your reaction be? What will you say to your friends who you watched the fight with if the fight stinks and they both look old and past it late in the fight?

    That's the nature of sports. A big spectacle is made out of the Super Bowl every year. Sometimes you get a really good game, sometimes the game sucks. No matter what happens, the build up and the hype bring fans back.

    It's a cash out fight for PAC. This will be anti-climatic.

    "Well, that sucked" would be my exact words.

    Except the fact that Canelo was a kid and these are two ATG's

    It's a cash out for both fighters. Did you expect them to fight for free and "fan glory"?. :lol:

    Mayweather fights are almost always anti-climactic. Maidana 1 and Cotto the exceptions in recent years.

    1st round technical draw thanks to a clash of heads

    Yeah but Mayweather is involved and his fights usually disappoint in the entertainment dept ..But then again people swore up and down prior that Canelo was the heir apparent ..

    Well one fighter wasn't selling anything and owes a lot of taxes hence finally accepting B side terms. Nobody has been buying Manny PPV.

    I'd say: "Welcome to boxing, the only sport where the best usually don't face the best, and when they do, it's 5 years too late and they'll ask you to give them 100$. Hope you're enjoying it."
