    Well, their greed has killed it. Dragging it out so long and now look what has happened.

    Pac vs May just became less relevant. Why do we desparately need to see that fight now? JMM has dominated Pacquiao 3 times now. So what on earth make a pacqiao mayweather fight so vital? What makes anyone think pacquiao could win? JMM is a better fighter and always has been.

    Ona a side note...Amir Khan needs to sut the **** up. he is deluding himself if he thinks he is anywhere the level of the great JMM. He will schooled and beaten like a father would to his son

    I agree they did kill it. People say "styles make fights" but they don't realize Floyd will see the same mistakes from Pacquiao that JMM did and capitalize on them even worse. I dislike Pacquiao but didn't want him to face Mayweather but after last night I wouldn't mind seeing Mayweather make his face a bloody mess.

    I am far more interested in a Mayweather v Cotto/Margarito at an official weight TBH

    Nope & never did.
    Mayweather although a counterpuncher is NOT JMM...
    meaning he can't execute that same type of fight due to his lack of "Balls & Combo's".

    The big "Mega" fight between Pacquiao & Mayweather would be a boring fight.
    (Always thought that always will... I hope the thought of this fight ****s off now)

    To determine that floyd would whoop pacs ass - no

    To make up for shady scoring in Pac's favor vs Marquez - yes

    To show everyone who the best of this generation truly is - HELL YES!!!

    Pacquiao is one of the most over rated fighters in history. He is just an awkward south paw who can't box for ****. Mayweather will have a field day with him......JMM has beaten him 3 times really. Morales beat the **** out of him, then Morales got old.....otherwise we would have never heard of the boxing scourge called Manny "lead with my head" Pacquiao.

    Absolutely need to see it, and need to see it next, if not why the **** rob JMM? They docked him because of the money...well go get the money then.

    I see where your coming from, for me last night was Marquez' most dominant performance, at least in the other 2 you can make a case for Manny.

    However, give it a few months, the controversy will die down and Pacquiao-Mayweather will heat up again. Pacquiao may be in decline, but Mayweather is no spring chicken himself.

    It's the defining "what if" of the era and there would be a hole in the sports timeline if it were not to happen, no matter how bad the fight may actually be the night it finally happens.

    Precisely.

    You want the 150 mil? Go get it.

    Tease us again and that money evaporates.

    I don't care to see it.

    I'd rather see Pac vs. Marquez 4 ...in Mexico City.

    Its just one of those things,Marquez does seem to have Pac`s number but it dont mean Manny v Floyd would not be a good fight.
    I think Khan probably would lose to Marquez but it would not be a beat down,Khan would make a good fight of it but prob be outpointed at this stage of thier careers.

    This fight just showed us why Pac has a million and one excuses not to drug test. He doesn't want to fight.

    I still want to see it, but JMM definitely took a lot of shine of the fight.
