Mayweather v Pacquiao - CONFIRMED

[longers]

I'm no boxing expert, very much a casual fan... But surely the only way Mayweather wins is via KO ? manny will surely outpunch him and judges usually side with the aggressor when it comes to point decisions.

Wow. Just talking about the purse/tv money just now.

If the tv audience in the States is 3 million on pay-per-view, both fighters will earn more in this fight than the entire Man United squad will in a season.

Crazy, especially when you consider boxing isn't even that popular a sport nowadays.

Depends who's picked the judges

Then how has Mayweather remain unbeaten with a relatively low ko ratio, in recent times

$100 to watch it on PPV in the states and it's only £20 here, I hate Sky but they really could have put a tenner on if they wanted easy.

Hope Manny slaughters him, there's not many I despise more than Mayweather in sport.

Mayweather as always will be back peddling trying to counter, just once I'd wish he'd have the balls to come forward from the start.

I was talking about punches landed, not thrown. Mayweather wins on points because no one can ever lands a sustained amount of punches on him over the course of 12 rounds.

I'd like to think this will be a bit different with manny.

Iv placed my bet, more with the heart than head to be honest, as id love to see him win, Manny by unanimous decision, 10/1.

We're planning a right night of it anyway, looking forward to it.

I find it highly amusing when people accuse a 5 weight world champion, unbeaten in 47 fights of lacking balls, amazing that such a cowardly fighter has survived so long

Because he's a sh!thouse back peddling fraud, Manny would have destroyed him 5 years ago when they should have had the fight, and that's exactly why Mayweather kept inserting things into the contract to stop it from happening.

it might be the case, I doubt, but I'm pretty surprised that people think there is no way the bigger, more skillful man with the better defense can win on points

Got the draw in a sweep. Fair chance of that. I'd imagine both boxers would be happy with that as its mean another fight and another bundle of cash!

haha of course he would, a world champion boxer is a coward, this why it so hard for me to warm to manny, his fans are unbearable

He ducked Manny simple as, the only reason it's happening now is because Manny has bent over and agreed to everything.

Come on mate, both sets are unbearable, boxing forums are just a place to avoid in fairness, not sure why a fighters fanbase would effect your opinion on the fighter.
