    Ain't going to need it mate. Styles make fights, not reputations or fan bases.

    Ha ha, good luck guys on that bet.
    I'm gonna wait a bit on it though. I think Pac wins this and am pretty confident on this, just gut feeling but a strong gut feeling. I'm holding off though on getting too excited because the fight's a loooong ass way off. But yes, when it comes down to the line it will get crazy on here.

    Funny but my gut is always right, in particular to the Pac. Even with DLH I was very vocally against it, claimed DLH would kill him, but you know what I never told anyone, as an old DLH fan, my gut was telling me Pac would win and it was messing with me. That's the one time I didn't pay attention to my gut on this fighter.

    You've been confident betting against Pac before so this doesn't make sense. how many times have you posted things like "Cotto by ****" "Hatton by first degree murder" "DLH by mutilation awww i feel less intelligent now replying to this thread" :yep:yep

    I'm gonna bump this thread, i'll show you on March 13

    There was always a slight chance that Hatton and Cotto could falter, I wasn't a 100% sure what was going to happen. I'm confident this time, and it's worth noting, I've never actually bet against Manny. This will be the first time, for real.

    I never said any of that ****, I always back up by predictions with reasonable analysis. There were reasons to think Hatton, Cotto, and Oscar could win. Pacquiao fans are so stupid that they get mad when I pick against their man, it only makes Manny greater that he's proving people wrong.

    Mayweather is better off fighting in March, he's more than likely been training for a cpl weeks already

    Yah, yah, yah... you're a prophet just like the rest of ESB. Thanks for the opinion.

    I really hope Mayweather can finally shut up the overcrowded pac/roach train. :p

    Such a big fight doesn't need 6 months to market...

    The marketing machine is ready to get going...This fight has been slowly planned for a while now. It's not cause they've just started talking about it and started official negociations, that HBO and all the sponsors haven't been approached a while ago to get ready to roll at any given time !

    In an ideal world, you want more than 3 months, but this fight is different and sells itself !

    Pacquiao vs Mayweather sells itself. Exactly.

    :good AGREED. You can count the last 2 weeks as promotion as well.
