Yeah, it'd have still been a great fight then. Pac seemed to lose his way for a few years and I'd have had floyd a bigger favourite then than I do now!

I think you might mean mayweather rather than ward mate, though ward would be more realistic if he was actually active, not a huge step up from midddle to super middle, even if GGG is a small middleweight. I actually think Murray is a very decent fighter, but GGG looks exceptional, wonderful balance which allows him that power in both hands, and from angles you wouldn't expect. If Murray could pull it off it would be a massive massive win, will be GGG inside 6 for me though, Also think abraham will beat smith

I meant Porter, not sure why I said Ward. Ward would be a great fight, though, if he could be arsed.
 

Just having a look at the smith Abraham weigh in. Smith looks in the best shape he's been in.

Price has shed a lot of muscle too and looks more like he did in his amateur days. Perhaps he's looking to box more and not get hit. Not a bad tactic.
 
I think Manny has already lost this fight, this will be a massive PR deal for Mayweather Enterprises, he makes a lot of $ from his PR.

@steken1 What you reckon on this Mayweather V Manny fight?

Glad it's finally happening. I'd love it if Pac had the speed and movement to land shots, I don't think he will have though. Maybe in the past he'd have had the punchers chance but now I think his powers dulled just enough for Mayweather to take a few hits here and there and get through comfortably.

Be brilliant if Mayweather came out with the intention of going for the KO.

What dya reckon yourself?

Manny has admitted himself he has lost a bit of speed, i can't see anything other than a Mayweather on points win - the crowd will want a fight, he will give them one i reckon. Manny has been put on his arse more often than he will have liked in the past 5 years, and Mayweather will use that.

That's the obvious one. I agree. I don't think floyd will come to fight. he'll just box his head off for a minute each round. You gunna watch Pricey tonight?

yeah, a few of the lads have gone over to watch Smigger fight. I didn't know he had been sparring with Eubank jnr!
 
Glad the fight has finally been arranged, still unfortunately I think it's a little over due and will not be the contest it would have once been.

While still being a top boxer, Manny isn't the fighter he once was. Still I'd suggest Mayweather feared him, hence all the wrangling and rhetoric.

It's not going to be an exhibition match, but whoever loses has already had a great career so can afford a loss. They'll also have a bulging wallet.

I would have much preferred it to have a took place were in their prime and fighting for the kudos; not for a possible final big pay off.
