Pacquiao v Mayweather

[buffalobo]

Can't believe no one has started this thread yet. No fight fans?

Opinions on sagging popularity of boxing?

Huge purse for both fighters?

they should have fought years ago

I'm not much into boxing but would probably watch this one if it was free.

My guess is the fight will go the distance and go to a controversial decision and there will be a second fight with a lot more hype and publicity so that all of the parties involved can make even more money.

Same here.

Just need to figure out how to get in on it.

I could watch it for free but I won't, it's just not what it used to be to me. And the amount of money these clowns make is so fricken ridiculous I can't even think about it. But good for them.

[Gman]

I'm interested, but I won't pay for it. I will probably watch it the following weekend for free just to see how it went down.

Mayweather is a jackass and I hope he lets beat. That about all I got on the subject at the moment

[Mtn.man]

Pac man.

I get it for free, I'll record it just to fast fwd at 4x or 16x and if there is a knockout, I'll rewind for a min or so. If it goes to the cards, see who wins then delete the fight. I want manny to win

If this fight was 4 or 5 years ago I think it would be much more exciting. Given their ages now Mayweather's style holds up a lot better over time. His MO is to out last his opponent and capitalize on the mistakes his opponent makes. Manny will try to end it between rounds 9-11 because he knows he won't win on the scorecards with the high percentage of punches Floyd will land, both jabs and power.
