Manny Pacquiao is "selling out" for the Mayweather sweepstakes again! This is what it has come to.

    Dude, the first fight sold itself because of that reason. Now they are both trying too hard to sell the second fight. Floyd showing up to Manny's fight and Manny wearing this stupid jacket, it's some sucker **** on both guys part. I can feel the phoney in both guys now. Hopefully the undercard is better than last time because it was trash.

    After the way Pacquaio was shafted by the NSAC, USADA & Vegas boxing officials he deserves a rematch.
    I know he was well paid at the time for it but he is a FIGHTER!! I'm sure he'd love another chance in a FAIR FIGHT!! this time
    Sadly you know with Mayweather & co NO ONE got a fair fight in Vegas against him so why would a rematch be any different. If they do fight good luck to them. BUT anyone that buys the fight is crazy
    Ive NEVER bought a Mayweather fracas EVER I prefer FIGHTERS!!!!

    It would be idiotic to have a solid undercard for the first fight when the main event is going to overshadow everything. That's really simple business logic if you can comprehend. Call it phony all you like, every single fighter out there dreams to do the exact same thing these guys are doing. If it wasn't for money, none will be fighting.

    I can't defend this farce and I won't complain at the results either. Defending that bull**** undercard on the first fight is beyond me because you support people openly spitting in your face and taking your money. This time I have a solution to those PPV issues from the first robbery of $100. It will be just entertainment.

    *Side note for all: If anyone is expecting a big ole brawl on this forum then cut your wrist vertically and jump in the bathtub. It's another money grab to get everyone hype and I'm not feeling it. Ward/Kovalev, Loma/Walters, Thurman/Garcia , Joshua/Klitschko.....are fights I'm looking forward to. The fact that everyone on this forum knows this is a lopsided blowout and will still argue about it, have fun.

    They have already made enough money for two fights. This fight should be on the house.

    I am not defending it, just explaining it. Hosting a strong undercard on a card that involves a main event fans have been waiting for since forever isn't only bad for business, but bad for the fighters in that undercard. Who is going to give a damn about the undercard when the main event is THE fight of the era?, hardcore fans, right?. And hardcore fans are what compared to the ocean of casuals tuning in for this?, 30%?.

    If you're too stupid to see through this yourself, then best of luck mopping floors for a living.

    Floyd may get caught.....I got a eerie feeling....like when RJJ got past Tarver the first time and then proceeded to get planked the second time....Roy had nothing left to prove should have just rode off into the sunset....but noooooooo...now he's been planked more times than a pirate.

    That's so much BS. Remember when that Typhoon happened in the Phils? The whole world came together. Pacquiao donated 1M Pesos, roughtly $15K. As a point of reference he was giving thousands of dollars to his posse for losing a pound. What a joke. Khan raised over $75K. Even Mayweather donated more.
