Kuya John Posted February 15, 2015 Posted February 15, 2015 What the World has been waiting for... A £160 million pound fight, that could well see Pacquiao retire or Mayweather for that matter. https://uk.eurosport.yahoo.com/news/boxing-report-manny-pacquiao-floyd-mayweather-agree-record-161129535--box.html 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris49 Posted February 15, 2015 Posted February 15, 2015 Yes it could be Manny's last fight, or they might extend it to 2-3 fights if there is a close decision. I expect Mayweather, a fast moving defensive specialist, to stay well away from Manny. He might win on points and it might not be all that close. Rationale: Pacquio's 3 toughest opponents have been Erik Morales, Marc Antonio Barrrera and Juan Antonio Marquez. Manny has a loss and a draw to Marquez, and an earlier loss to Morales. Three hard fought wins over Barrera. Marquez fought Manny almost even over 4 fights. When Marquez went into the ring with Mayweather in 2009, Floyd gave him a solid beating, winning 11/12 rounds on most scorecards. Mayweather was too quick and Marquez was never in the fight from Round 1. Manny is 36. Quite a few fighters have gone well beyond that. If he came out of the Mayweather fight unhurt, the next fight might be Marquez V...their 5th meeting. I hope he would not, but I am not sure. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is quite soon in boxing terms. Both fighters will need the 8 weeks training. My opinion is the Mayweather could stay outside, well away from Manny and win on points. I could see a draw. I can't se Manny winning on points, he could win on a KO or TKO, total longshot. I'm also thinking a dullish fight with both fighters on the defensive. A rough mental calculation on the pay for view plus the 200M purse would make this the biggest fight ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
