    Do people actually realize the physiological changes that accompany turning fifty years old?

    The senior citizen boxing circuit is alive and I wish it would be taken off life support.

    He could do mankind a real service by doing sensitivity training seminars that focus on respect for women.

    If Manny beats him, I'm curious on how quick Floyd will down play losing his 0 due to him being an "old man"?

    Nobody forced him to come back at this stage of his life, if he loses his undefeated status he better accept that that's on him.

    A lot of people don't. There are still many, many people who think that Mike Tyson held back against Jake Paul, and that it was a scripted fight.

    Meanwhile in actual boxing, 40 year olds competing at the world level are generational talents.

    Damn man, my barrista at Starbucks was all questions about the money PAC fight 2. Is he gonna run? How long has he been retired? Where is the fight (judges)? Etc etc. I told him it's the million dollar question. Because I will watch, I'm assuming it's gonna be on ppv when its such a high profile high stakes bout. My bro asked me if it's gonna be riyahd season with Turki alishiek? I don't think this one is gonna be free...

    They keep referring to Floyd's techical skills as if he were an architect, engineer, or draftsman, and not an athlete whose performance is enhanced or limited by age.

    Manny deserves a holiday named after him if he KO’s this POS floyd and gets rid of him from any spotlight for good :)

    floyd gets KOed… his hyped up ‘undefeated’ record is gone and so is 80% of peoples desire to buy any of his fights. Lol Because most people watch his fights to see him lose and cry again like at the Olympics :D


    I think Pac-Man does it this time,

    I hope Floyd gets on his bike and doesn’t throw a single punch.

    he would theoretically win

    I very much doubt this fight will happen. I don’t think Mayweather will risk his 0 unless the fight is scripted/rigged for him to definitely win.

    A rematch at this point is just utter garbage. But, they say that there is a sucker born every minute. A number of posts in this thread appear to make that estimate seem conservative.
