    and that he'd lose a fight against floyd as a result, please give your reason here(more focused on the election than the fight, injuries with sources, etc). Thanks

    March isn't too soon. The main reason is his perforated ear drum which takes weeks to heal. March is basically exactly 4 months after the Cotto fight. It will definitely have healed by then. Before anyone says what do I know? I know this from a doctor because I've had a perforated ear drum before (mine took just over 3 weeks before it felt normal again). It's not really painful, just an annoying ache and sometimes you hear weird **** like little whistles.

    Blame cockroach, as usual the **** talked it up, and when floyd called his bluff he changed his undies.

    Medical issues aside it does seem like it's too soon. I think Pac needs a little more time to train/prepare for Mayweather. It seems rushed and like Pac is reluctantly just kind of squeezing in the biggest fight of his career before the elections. Damn, May would have been perfect.

    Those are good points but would Floyd's style require an extra week or two of camp for Manny in your opinion?

    :huh What was his excuse then?


    If Manny's eardrum is totally healed by December, then fighting in March is not a problem. By January he will be having some sparrings and these sparrings can damage the eardrum again if it is not yet totally healed.

    I can't see any problems with the time.

    I expect the usual circus from pacman's camp before the fight. You know the usual stuff. That Roach and pacman are fighting. That Kunt is firing Roach. That pacman has hired a voodoo priest to be in his team, and he is making pacman eat scorpions and **** - and Roach is mad about this. That Pacman is preparing for his political campaign and not for the fight and his camp are encouraging it while Roach is being held prisoner in Izbekistan and can't fly over to fix it all up.

    Then he will come out looking like a million dollars in the fight. (Won't stop PBF from winning the decision though)

    Then of course, there will be the rematch where they will both earn another 30 million! Happy days.

    It should be MAY. I want this fight to happen with no excuses on the outcome on both sides. manny needs at least 10 weeks to prepare for floyd, so he should start By last week of december. Which is impossible cause i think its his birthday and manny will not train before new year (jan 1).

    :lol: Yeah something like that !

    ...but NO it's not too early and unless he has an unusual problem with his eardrum, then it will be entirely healed by January for sure.

    i think its too early.

    4 months between opponents like Cotto and Mayweather is the kind of **** that has never or rarely been done.

    If the fight happens in March, I don't see the problem. Manny says he only likes to train for 8 weeks. Roach said Mayweather is an easier fight than Cotto. Arum also claims it's a relatively easy fight for Pacquiao. We've all heard for months how Mayweather is supposedly scared to death of Manny. We've also heard how Manny is one of the greatest, if not the greatest, of all time. It's been pounded into everyone's head that Floyd is a coward and a ducker who's cherrypicked his way to the top. With all this said, how can March be too soon? The great Manny Pacquiao should be able to beat a the supposedly ducking, cherry picking, cowardly Mayweather with no problem. 4 months is plenty of time.
