Floyd Says He'll Give Pac Rematch Next Year

I wouldn't pay to see it.

 

What's wrong with Khan? He has even more speed than paq and is young. Let's see how these two guys can deal with his speed.

 

Pac would need a competitive fight after such a long lay off. Mayweather has to fight somebody in Sept while Pac is injured, why not Khan?

 

Mayweather takes this fight again because he knows he'd win again. It's as simple as that. People really think Pac would take a loss on purpose?

 

Let's close this chapter. He beat Pacquiao decisively. Pac showed no signs of injury in the ring.

 

I think Mayweather should go into Manny's home territory. That would be sick. Plus, MGM already said they won't do another May/Pac fight because of how bad it was.

So, two scenarios...


Either they fight at Dallas Cowboy Stadium and us casual fans can go
Or, Floyd goes to Macau to beat Manny in his home-court. Of course, he'd have to knock him out because there's more risk for Manny to steal a decision.

 

Indeed.

 

And why exactly should Floyd do any of that?

If he wants a swan song/finale for his 50th pro fight, they should have it in Grand Rapids, Michigan.

Why the hell should he go to the Phillipines or to Arum's best buddies arena in texas? DO you forget who beat who on saturday night and secured themselves as the 1A fighter for any future negotiations?

Saturday night showed us who the best fighter of this generation is and who the 1A fighter for a potential rematch is.

 

You really don't think so? Before the fight, he appeared stressed and almost worried coming out to the ring. I told my family, and my mom even said he didn't look confident. When his name was announced, he was loosening his right shoulder specifically.

In the fight, he throws the least amount of punches of his career. His right hook becomes almost nonexistent. He only threw it once in the 4th round then no more after that. Then, past mid-way point you could see Manny was just searching to land the left. According to him, it was because he was trying to land a desperate KO punch with his left and that's why he didn't punch as much. Which is supported, because his punch numbers fell by 10 after the the halfway point. Then my friend pointed out to me, who isn't a boxing fan, that from the bird's-eye view shot of Manny unleashing a combination he was heavily favoring his left said and when he threw his right hands, it clear as day didn't have the same tenacity. She was right.

After the fight, he is in a sling, gets MRI, and is said to have a severe injury that will require surgery.

Like Rafael said, you just can't deny that the injury did affect Pacquiao's performance. It's just obvious. Come on, if someone was following Pacquiao for a while they'd see something was wrong with him, beyond of just what Floyd was doing. When I was watching the fight, I was in horror. Manny refused to counter Floyd with the right hook on any body jabs, or throw it in general. There were so many circumstances when Floyd was on the ropes and Manny just refused to pull the trigger. People say it was because of Floyd's power keeping him off, but Manny said Floyd's power wasn't strong and it was because he was in so much pain & trying to land the left.


It does sound like a hefty excuse, but for me, it's supported by a ton of evidence. And after the doctor coming out and the scheduled surgery, I just can't do anything other than believe him.


This is the SAME injury that caused Klitschko to quit on his stool when he was WINNING!

"Klitschko, making his third defense of the lightly regarded crown, refused to answer the bell for the 10th round of the scheduled 12-rounder against Byrd, saying later he began to feel fierce pain in the third round."

Klitschko said the pain felt like he was being shot, and Manny described it as having ton of needles being pushed into his shoulder. Both sound excruciating. Manny's tear is described as severe. To the point he legitimately had to practically fight one handed.

As one person said, "I tore a muscle in my shoulder during training and let me tell you something once you hurt your shoulder real bad you can't use it. You have to try to win with one arm. When you got someone kicking and punching you it's very difficult."


This fight should be discredited in some ways, I'm sorry. Manny was legitimately fighting with one arm, and if you deny it hindered his performance, then that just it. Denial.

 

I'll meet you at cowboys stadium, I'm 15 minutes away.

 

This wont happen and dont really care about it.

Would rather be seeing younger guys in their prime fighting than 2 even older guys doing it again.

 

Calm down. It would just be a great way to go out. Beating Manny in front of his fans. It's just super BA, chill.

 

I suppose but I just don't see the result being any different. It's also mighty convenient. I don't care for it anymore.
