    I am going to stick with my belief that Mayweather will never lose.

    Possibly because he didn't face the toughest opposition, or maybe he just is that good, but we will never know for sure! Retiring rather than face Cotto is a very strong argument the other way. I don't buy the whole Cotto isn't a big draw crap either. This fight would have been huge and Floyd knows it. Quite possibly the fighter with the best chance of beating him if he does get by Pc of course. But I agree this is a very huge fight the likes we may never seen for ten to fifteen years if ever again.

    You can't deny that Floyd has never faced someone like Pacquiao. It will be interesting to see how he responds to the challenge.

    Based on Pacman's history, we can assume that he will MAKE PBF fight. Now, whether that's good or bad for Pacman is another story but Pacman will make sure it's interesting one way or the other.

    Manny was fast in his last fight. I have underestimated him in his past 3 fights. He has a chance of winning.

    I want to see Pac nail Mayweather on the button with a left hand. Then we'll honestly see what Mayweather got. I like Pac. I think Floyd has good rounds until he feels the power.

    Floyd does not participate in fight's of the year.
    I like the guy, don't get me wrong. But what fight of the year has he taken part in?

    All I can say that I am damn glad this didn't get held up in negotiations for forever and a day.

    Anyone know the date? Is it March or May? I have no qualms about buying this one.

    That would probably be determined by venue (at least by state). If the fight ends up in Vegas, then it's a virtually non-negotiable 20x20.
