sako751sg Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 Finally,Floyd Mayweather and Manny Pacquiao all set for May 2nd. Both past prime but its still a megafight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evo Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 that's a shame, I wish it was khan fighting mayweather because to be honest as long as khan boxed and didn,t try to mix it I think his hand speed and busyness would of won him the fight, still i think pacquiao will beat him or hope he does but will be an interesting fight, as you say its a shame it didn't happen 5 years ago, as now I think mayweather is not as agile as he was,,looking forward to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archie-fox Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 hopefully floyd mayweather will get a good beating.. as said tho both way past there prime.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sako751sg Posted February 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 Dont think Khan lives with either of these although Virgil Hill has made him more disciplined so he doesnt expose his china chin so much. Not a lot in the fight but hopefully Mannys workrate over 12 is enough to get the decision.Just put a ton on him at 5/2 so heres hoping.

Shooterluke Posted February 21, 2015 Report Share Posted February 21, 2015 i am 50/50 mannys speed but i also think of reflex of mayweather and his power he demolished marqeuz which i feel in all fairness i think manny struggled in all his fights with him (obviously) not there last one .marquez and manny got the same style ,speed but mayweather was to strong an outclassed marquez catching him on reflexes this may happen to pac man i think but would like manny to win and stop mayweathers trash talk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDog Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 (edited) It doesn't say much for the other fighters in this weight division that these two are considered to be past their best but they are still at the top of the tree.

Although boxing is not in one of its golden eras we have to remember that these two are truly 2 ATGs with Floyd a champ in 5 divisions and Manny 8 so even past prime they are still top dogs.

Browning 425 clay hunter Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 Can't wait for it, a bit late yes, but better late than never. I hope mayweather gets a beating but can't see anything other than floyd win. Should be a battle though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SuperGoose75 Posted February 22, 2015 Report Share Posted February 22, 2015 Better late than never' although Moneyman i reckon had to take the fight for fear of tarnishing his name and going down in history as the man who avoided packman. I of course will be cheering on Manny' however i reckon Mayweather thinks now is the time to beat him and he just might do so. For what its worth' I think the present Khan would give Mayweather a whole lot of trouble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Longchalk Posted February 23, 2015 Report Share Posted February 23, 2015 Mayweather has aged better than Pacman, which is probably why he's left it this long to agree the fight. Would love to see Floyd get his comeuppance but won't be putting much money on it. Manny is nowhere near the warrior he once was. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sako751sg Posted April 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 sold out in 3 min apparently Nope,tickets didn't go on sale till Friday past and sold oot in less than a minute. Very poor show with less than a thousand available to the public and the rest split between boxers/promotors and the venue. For a fight of this magnitude it could have been done on a bigger scale.

Gordon R Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 Head says Floyd, but heart says Manny. I think Amir Khan would give both of them trouble. They would damage their hands repeatedly decking the glass chinned wonder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Mick.j Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 Anyone for a draw????????? Then they can 'do it' all over again for some more dosh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jpigeon3 Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 If Manny can't push the pace and stop him early ( before the 3rd ) wbich I doubt. Floyd Is to defensively savvy, and as Manny has been ko'd lately, I can see him being stopped in lthe later rounds, (8 or 9). If he doesn't, Floyd will coast and win a decision. Be nice to see Manny win. But I think it's going to be Floyd's night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fisherman Mike Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 Anyone for a draw? ? ? ? ?? Then they can 'do it' all over again for some more dosh. Got it in one...its a media set up... it will probably go the full distance, both knocked down twice, 1/2 a point in it at the end, loser demanding a rematch... Cant believe people are so gullible. It will be staged like one of those 70,s wrestling matches from the Town Hall, Bolton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sako751sg Posted April 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 I was believing you but the half point is unheard of in boxing. Not sure if i should bet the hoose on your prediction now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon R Posted April 26, 2015 Report Share Posted April 26, 2015 1/2 a point in it at the end, loser demanding a rematch... I believe they score the bouts on the "10-points Must System", so no chance of a half point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
