fuck mayweather asking 65/35. manny is a way bigger name.
i love this guy
The pressure on Mayweather to fight Pacquiao is immense; nobody's gonna stand for it unless he fights either Mosley or Pacquiao. In my eyes, Mosley will be a harder fight than Pacquiao. Just my thoughts, ladies and gentlemen.
As for the Cotto-Pacquiao fight.. I never expected as bad a beating as that. Pacquiao literally broke Cotto's spirit in half and seemed to have the advantage in power as well! Who the fuck saw that shit coming? The ref should've stopped it in the 9th though, I hate to see great warriors taking a needless pounding like that.
I saw that interview, Manny's a funny guy.
manny is a cool guy and damn good of course... but against mayweather don't expect a cotto beating. mayweather is an intelligent boxer at the top of his game.
i hate mayweather's personality, but for his boxing, he can win against manny
i would have money on mayweather
i just want to see it
floyd seems confident
"pacquiao would be an easy fight"
but he's pussy in reality...

I think this fight would be great for boxing..but this potential fight would remind me of Trinidad & DeLaHoya. One fighter being aggressive (Pacquaio) the other using his vast boxing skills to keep it a technical rather than physical brawl. If Mayweather wouldn't take chances with Marquez I don't think he would even think of taking chances with Pac. I would root for Pacman but I would make Mayweather a slight favorite.
big win for ward over kessler
^^hell yeah I didn't see that coming from Ward!!
looks like the fight is going to happen with floyd and pac man. i seen theyre takin bets for it already lol looks like the boookies are favoring floyd
if anyone thinks pacman will have an easy time like he did with cotto, or ricky, they are sadly mistaken
so vegas might just build a venue to host the fight lol ... lol forget about computers and roads n shit, just spend the stimulus money on a new stadium lol
that would be going to far
This Is The Official Mma Thread Talk About Anything That Involves Mixed Martial Arts Including Ufc, Pride Fighting, K1 Or Other
hmmm no it is the boxing thread, that is why it is called The Official Boxing Thread
i don't feel like looking for the link but it's true ... i guess whoever runs las vegas doesn't want any chance of the fight being held in texas ... nothing absolute or anything, but it was thrown out there as if "anything you can do, we can do better" *shrugs
floyd has fought stronger opponents than himself before, but besides that ... mayweather has said time and time again legacy don't pay the bills, and as much as people hate him for saying that, it's true ... while the greatest boxers are gonna be walking around brain dead mayweather will still be sharp with an impressive record and still be able to walk and talk after his career ... whats wrong with that?
it took heart to stay in there with castillo like that after he was gettin knocked around for half the fight ... people always look at the bad side of mayweather when at the core he is one damn good boxer, regardless of who he decides 2 fight
ahhh castillo vs mayweather ...one of the greatest contravercies in boxing.....mayweather should have lost...
Good points. My beef with PBF is that while he has gone on about money vs. legacy before he has just as often proclaimed himself to be the greatest boxer from any era. I don't think he even believes that bullshit himself. He is one of the most skilled ever but he hasn't taken on the challenges in recent years to merit him being the greatest. How the fuck do you go from fighting the Corralles and Castillo's in your division to handpicking opponents like Judah, Baldomir, and Gatti?! Shit, he fought a lightweight in Marquez and the bitch ass didn't even TRY to get to the catch weight! Mos def the most skilled and mos def the biggest pussy.
right, i agree ... but to be honest i think when he says things like that, he's just trying to hype his name up ... it's cheap and unsportsmanlike, but he does attract a big draw ... everything he does and says i always look at as a business move first, no one likes looking at a fighter as a businessman before a boxer, but floyd plays his cards rightQuote:

greene is WAY too susceptible to the jab, and hes ovverated, put in a B-hop or a Dawson and hell struggle against their jabs
yeah paul williams would be literally the biggest contender for mayweather, he has the type of style that doesnt suit floyd, because floyd has never been truly tested against somebody that usually throws 100 punches per round, furthermore floyd never works too well against a high workrate fighter, so dismissing pacquiao would be illogical, his offense has improved immensily over the years and he can easily back floyd against the ropes.
so lets say B-hop wins tonight, will he still fight Roy Jones, or just say your not worth my time now? I say he fights him, and ends RJJ career
nah, no way i see that fight still going down now. rjj has ZERO chance of beating X at this point.
so it looks like pac vs floyd in march or may hopefully!

lol @ the comments on that article^^

Manny won't be hitting anything on March 13. I think he has a better chance at hitting Kenny Bayless on fight night in this one.
this is the fight most of everyone wanted to see, and it might happen
haha just peeped the comments.. makes gen chat seem civil by comparison lol
