Mayweather vs. Pacquiao, will it happen?

[HERESY]

Pac constantly said "talk to this guy" instead of being proactive. His man tells Bob Arum to step aside after Bob came with the needles and building new stadiums excuses. Then Manny had the chance to leave TR but he chose to stay.

Bottom line is Manny wants to be pimped, it's in his nature, but it has to be done the right way.

 

[CZAR]

I have zero problem if someone thinks a fighter can beat Pacquiao, but Ortiz and Guerrero? I'm going to call you out for saying dumb shit any day of the week.

Like if someone said Brandon Rios would beat Mayweather (and yes I've seen idiots say this before on social media) I'm calling them out for not knowing shit. At least have some kind of explanation or some shit.

Ortiz just got knocked out in 2 rounds by feather duster Collazo and he's gonna beat Pacquiao? Sure. Guerrero just went life and death with a C- level Japanese guy and he's gonna beat Pac? Absurd. Notice I didn't say anything about Maidana because at least that's somewhat possible and Canelo is a big guy compared to Pacquiao so again, some probability at least.

 

[HERESY]

Pac would make easier work of Maidana then Floyd did. He's made for Pac. Come forward, head down when he swings, wants to make everything a brawl, has trouble adapting at times, can become gassed in the middle rounds.

Pac will ko him in 9.

It's all about styles but somehow knuckle heads still don't get that. Some guys that give Mayweather problems would be easy work for Pacquiao. And some guys that give Pacquiao problems would be easy work for Mayweather.

Ricky Hatton. Won some early rounds against Floyd, gave him a fight until Floyd took over and KOd him in round 10 or whatever it was. Pacquiao however KOd Hatton immediately, not even remotely competitive. Marquez, a guy who has forever gave Pac tough ass fights and obviously eventually knocked him the fuck out, Floyd had a walk in the park with him, easy payday, Floyd made it looks so easy. It's just style match ups, very simple.

 

[T-Rip]

So noones gonna mention the good news that the fight it seems will be finally be made within in the next 7 to 10 days?

Floyd Mayweather, Manny Pacquiao inch closer to showdown



We don’t know when Manny Pacquiao and Floyd Mayweather Jr. will finally touch gloves, but we know where it will happen.
The fighters agreed during talks Thursday to hold the highly anticipated fight at the MGM Grand Garden Arena in Las Vegas, according to the Los Angeles Times.
They have also agreed on a drug-testing plan. Long a hang-up in the boxers' negotiations, the test accord figures to be a key decision.
The fighters and their camps are reportedly “closing in” on a purse split, an anonymous official involved in the talks told the Times. Mayweather wants a 60-40 split, which Pacquiao is willing to meet, according to the Times.
“We’re making progress,” the official said. The official also said a fight date could be set in the next seven to 10 days with May or June being the targeted months.

Very important to note until it's done, it's not done, but Thursday was a good day for the long-awaited super-fight, I'm told.

Next on the agenda is ironing out broadcast plans. Showtime has a contract with Mayweather (48-0) for two more fights. HBO's contract with Pacquiao (57-5-2, 38 KOs) includes for one more fight. The networks could devise a joint plan like they did with the 2002 heavyweight title fight between Mike Tyson and Lennox Lewis.

That is promising. Plus Roach said yesterday the deal is getting close to being done. Still not going to believe it till the ink is dry but there is no question this is the best they've done in five years. No talking shit back and forth to the media. Looking good!!!

 

[2-0-Sixx]

Oh damn dude just got KTFO on Friday night fights. @HERESY hurry up and make a month of January thread.

 

[battle619]

This makes it sound like everything is going Manny's and Arum's way! That doesn't make any sense at all. They better prove me wrong

 

[HERESY]

There is nothing wrong with Floyd getting a 60-40 split. Shit Pac should be grateful he is getting 30.

 

[HERESY]

According to Pac there will be an announcement in like ten days or at the end of the month.

Khan Gives Floyd Mayweather Five Day Deadline

Amir Khan (30-3, 19KOs) will not stick around and wait for an offer from WBC/WBA welterweight champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. (47-0, 26KOs). The British star has given Mayweather's team a five day deadline to get him answer on a possible May 2nd clash.

There are ongoing talks for Mayweather to face Manny Pacquiao. Khan is viewed as a viable 'Plan B' option, but Mayweather thinks the British boxer is not a big enough name*for a pay-per-view main event.

"I want to fight in May and I want the Mayweather fight but it&#8217;s not getting any closer,&#8217; Khan admitted to the Daily Mail. "I&#8217;ve answered all the things Mayweather wanted me to do. He wanted me to fight at welterweight, I did that; he wanted to do a vote [to see who he would fight], I won the vote; he wanted me to beat a top guy in the division and I gave Devon Alexander a beating he&#8217;d never had before."

"There is a lot of money in a fight with me, not just in America, but he&#8217;s trying to avoid me. He&#8217;s avoiding two names in boxing, Manny Pacquiao and Amir Khan. Mayweather wants to keep his &#8216;0&#8217;, he doesn&#8217;t want to take the big fights. If he&#8217;s not fighting the top guys but is fighting guys who are over the hill or not at their peak, he&#8217;s going to be undefeated.

"It&#8217;s a waiting game, I&#8217;ve given his team five days. I need to know this week because I need to start training."

 

[T-Rip]

lol @ Khan trying to give a deadline. I wonder how many big money fights he has lined up

Not only is Khan a hypocrite but he is begging and its pissing me off. Why the fuck would you do everything FLOYD told you to do? You don't need him, Khan. Nigga go fight Danny Garcia again and stop begging for a fight.

 

[battle619]

We have Maidana's advisor saying he has no promotional ties to Haymon. Khan has come out saying that he is loyal to GBP and is still a GBP fighter. By Khan giving him a deadline, his next move would be to fight Manny which is what Oscar wants. That would happen n HBO. Or he can fight Bradley, Marquez, or the obvious Diego Chavez as an undercard to Cotto Canelo. Then Maidana can be offered Manny in April or June. Giving him this deadline forces Floyd and Haymon to make a decision, Khan either fights on Showtime or fights on HBO? That's a very smart move if you ask me.

 

[Coach E. No]

I don't believe that 7-10 day thing.

I also had a dream that everyone can laugh at me for, I had a dream I was in Vegas on business and the Mayweather/Pacquiao fight was going on that weekend. Pacquiao saw me and asked me to hang out with his 50 man crew and kept asking me for advice, then told me to be in charge of security during the weigh in. We get to the weigh in, and every fighter you can possibly imagine are there. Pacquiao goes to this room for added security before he weighs in, and Peter Quillin stops me and says, I can't believe they are going to do a weigh in, they haven't even signed the contracts... WTH??????
