    i dunno...maybe i missed it but why this date???

    i mean they could make it March 27 to at least give both camps 2 more weeks of prep...give more time for PAC to rest and/or heal ...not to mention 2 more weeks of promotion (not like it needs it)

    so again...what's so important about this date?? :huh

    Pacquiao's running for Congress in the Phillippines and the elections are in May, which would have been a conflict between his training and the campaign.

    Campaign period for the election starts on March 25 I think. I think there might be some problems airing the fight here in the Philippines since there's a chance it might not be allowed to air after the 25th since there's a law preventing movies/tv shows/ songs by the candidate being aired during the campaign period. Not 100% sure about this though.

    Freddie recently said that he will need a 3 months training camp to prepare Pacquaio for Mayweather. So that's gone out the window. For the biggest fight of all time, it's way too soon. Great for us, but i rather it be a little later. Screw the politics!

    So far I've read for a seat in Congress and for President, but I am not sure which one to believe.

    Hardly a consideration. Mayweather crunched the UFC with a far lesser known dance partner.
