I never thought I could get myself to say that. Being a huge boxing fan I was anticipating this fight, but no longer. I have to eat my crow and humble myself and admit what most will not. Mayweather is a great boxer. He is hated for how he presents himself. Not for his talent in the ring. Manny has lost the fire. Riches and political avenues have reduced him to a fighter who can't even beat an old beat down Marquez. The hunger is gone. Mayweathers defensive skills would reduce him to a panting mess by round 8 and a loss by decision at best. Face it. We all would love to see Mayweather beaten down because of who he is. Not because of his talent in the ring. What i thought worthy of PPV would not only be a waste of money, but of 2 hours of my time. Sorry, but the megafight is only a delusion. I hope you enjoy spending your money if it does happen. I will be sipping port and eating prime rib somewhere else. Not in front of a big screen.
Floyd is at -144 with the bookies, against Manny. I'd put up more than a considerable bet on Floyd to win the fight at those odds. It'd be an easy bet for me, EASY BET.
The more sensible boxing fans have always believed Floyd vs Manny would be pretty one sided in Mayweather's favour.
Stylistically we all know Floyd would win, Honestly I think he's gonna win via wide UD. But that OSDT is a ***** ass which clearly shows that he is not 100% confident about fighting Manny. Pac answered with another ***** ass move and sued him. A slap to us boxing fans.
It's still the biggest fight to be made, and a matchup between two ATGs. I'd still rather it happen than any other fight.
What sensible fan ever predicted Pac's career would be at this point 10 years ago? When it comes to common sense or boxing logic, you should have realized long ago ...Pac does not apply.
Could/should/would/if. Tyson could beat Douglas. DLH should beat Pacquiao. Jones would beat Tarver. If Floyd fought Pacquiao.....
