Floyd Mayweather Junior wants Manny Pac(that's what it says!)
http://www.doghouseboxing.com/Chee/Chee0612g06.htm
Today out in print, Edwin Rollon of manilastandardtoday.com reports that Games and Amusements Board chairman Eric Buhain confirms that Mayweather Jr. is considering fighting Manny Pacquiao.
Buhain is quoted in Manila Standard Today.com in regards to Mayweather vs Pacquiao: “It’s going to be a blockbuster. Our friends in the world boxing council tipped this to us, and if plans push through, this would be the biggest break for Manny.”
Buhain added: “Manny’s ideal weight is 130 lb, but he can fight at 135 and Mayweather is willing to trim down from 140 to 135 just to fight Pacquaio.”

Re: Floyd Mayweather Junior wants Manny Pac(that's what it says!)
Wow, no way is this true.
I would back Pac simply due to Floyd having to drain to get back down to 135 and the problems this would cause for him, his chin would suffer and that is not what u need against Pac.
P4P tho, Id take Floyd.

At 135? If Floyd can handle the weight fine, then Id agree, just a little skeptical about shooting up to WW and going back down to 135.

To be honest i think this is bullshit, Floyd should be fighting Hatton Dela Hoya and Marorito, by the way Floyd fans if he does take this fight are you going to terrorize him similar to Hatton for being a pussy and going down in weight and not being a man?? I defo will

I wont terrorize him, its Pacman, a top 3 P4P guy, noones terrorizing Hatton for going down in weight yet, Urkal's a WW ;D. Just cos those jackasses hate on Hatton, doesnt mean you should hate on Floyd, I respect him and would respect him if this was true.
That being said this is a complete joke.

Not u mate , but when Hatton sadi he wants winner of Castillo-Corrlaes there was alot of muppets on here calling him a pussy and not a man for moving back down in weight, yes Pac is p4p no 3, but say Calzaghe went down and fought Oscar?? Would you praise him for it?? i certainly wouldnt, Floyd has bigger business and more money fights at 140/147.

Re: Floyd Mayweather Junior wants Manny Pac(that's what it says!)
Floyd doesn't need to be going back down to 135. But damn would that be a huge a** fight. Seriously, Floyd's best weight is 135. He's got KO power from accumulation at 135 and 140. At 147, it doesn't matter how many punches he lands he's not knocking anyone out. Floyd should stay and fight De La Hoya, if ODLH wants the fight though. And he will. Damn, this came out of nowhere though. PBF vs Pac @ 135. Damn, that's a great fight. Honestly, I was one of those people who hated on Hatton for talking about fighting Corrales / Castillo. I hated because I thought that he should give Collazo a rematch, he shouldn't take the guy's belt and run back to 140. But honestly, both Hatton and PBF know their best weight is probably 140 (PBF's more like 135). Hatton is gonna get knocked out eventually @ 147 and PBF might just suffer the same fate. Fuck it, these guys just need to get it on.

Re: Floyd Mayweather Junior wants Manny Pac(that's what it says!)
Never happen....nope...not in a million years......wouldn't even be a good fight....PBF is way to big....and better....and faster....and prettier....
-
Re: Floyd Mayweather Junior wants Manny Pac(that's what it says!)
I agree,PBF would win but I don't think it would be as easy as you guys think,I mean thsi Pacman is a relentless whirlwind of a punching machine and he will catch PBF and we know he can utilise a great jab and great body attacks. I'd like to see what would happen if PBF gets caught!! Personally,I stress I think Floyd would win but not easily and also,OBVIOUSLY ,the chances of this happening are zilch but it's interesting!!

Re: Floyd Mayweather Junior wants Manny Pac(that's what it says!)
OHH MY LORD!!!!! em i dreaming...pac agains floyd....thats a dream match...........I been waiting for so long for this to come out of one of pac or floyds mouth...seeing floyd in pacs match with morales made me think...some how floyd must be interested in a match with pac.........its a death match for floyd as a boxing FAN 4 LIFE i will bet my life saving on pac....floyd is great simply when he gets his oppenent to stop punching....happen to gatti happen to corrales happen to judah.....pac is the most relentless fighter he won't stop punching for nothing...eventually pacs pressure will catch floyd coming in with a right or a left...pacs powerfull with either hand...with the multiple punches he throws floyd will get hurt...speed vs speed...pac being a southpaw like judah floyd will struggle early...and we know how accurate floyd is...but pac head movement and body punches will wear floyd out...and pac gets accurate more and more in the later rounds...its floyd signing his coffin against pac...
New p4p if this happens...........BRING ON THE WAR...4GET the wwe soup opera oscar de la hoya brings and floyd sr....lets go pac and floyd!!!!!!!!!!!!

Re: Floyd Mayweather Junior wants Manny Pac(that's what it says!)
This Pacman craze is getting crazier and crazier; somebody stop it! But just in case my hero is crazy enough to take the challenge, I hope he'd add his weight with a real muscle, not just by eating up to add more flabs, but through an honest to goodness weight training regiments. Honestly, I have my doubts. Pacman is not good at catching a quick, evasive type of fighter like Pretty Boy. If Floyd did what Hopkins did last week, I doubt if Pacman can handle that. I think only time Pacman should fight Floyd is when he runs out of worthy opponents; there are still lots of them out there, like Barrios, Juarez, Raheem, and even Castillo. But first thing first, he should finish his business with Morales first before looking ahead, if indeed the fight pushes through.

Game open your eyes ok ;)
Pacquiao aint his best at 130, you actually thinkg he'd stand a chance at 135, against a better defensive counter puncher then JMM, WHO HITS MUCH HARDER!! Mayweather hits about as hard as a 140 pounder can hit. The kind of beating Mayweather put on Gatti do you actually think that pacquiao would be on his feet by the time the 4th round came?

Re: Floyd Mayweather Junior wants Manny Pac(that's what it says!)
When Zahir destroyed Erik Morrales in front of PACMAN and his trainer roach...they idea of fighting a bigger slick boxer wasn't a fucking oiption....that's why there was no mention of him fighting raheem even though raheem clearly beat the shit out of morrales..now imagine what floyd would do to him or morrales for that mattter...
pbf wins this fight in under 7.....Maybe not by KO...but I think Freddie roach would stop it....

Re: Floyd Mayweather Junior wants Manny Pac(that's what it says!)
OMG. this fight better not happen. Give me a break. Bad, bad, bad, bad match up. Horrible match up. Floyd is way too big on top of being way too good. That would be a slaughter.

Mayweather has exactly the same height and reach as Morales!! but that is irrelevant cause at 135lb Floyd would stop him, Manny eats to much leather. Imagine the size difference by the time the first bell sounded Pacman started his career as a Light Flyweight.

I'm not even gonna bother putting Pacquiao into equation with mayweather or commenting on just how ridiculous and stupid an idea is, but Starr I can't let some BS about mayweather pass, floyd does not hit as hard as a 140 guy can hit, not even as hard as a 130 guy (when he was 130) can hit, what he does do is hit faster and more accurate though, thats why Gatti was so f*cked up, we've seen him be put down at 140 plenty of times, floyd couldn't do that but he could land 100% clean exactly where he wanted, floyd is not a power puncher, he doesn't hit as hard as most other guys in every division he faught in, its like how collazo hurt hatton, people are to say he doesn't have power, he may well not, but he does have accuracy and volume, thats why he rocks and hurts people, and damages their faces. Now I'm not much of a boxer myself, (0-3 but I had fun :) ) but if i hit anyone my own weight (160 when I faught last), 20 times and he just stood there, no defence, no punching me back (Gatti vs PBF basically ;) ), I'd break his nose, bust his lip maybe give them a black eye, and I could probably put them down for a flash, because the shots would be 100%, clean and where I wanted them to go, without defence or movement the body can not take punishment, its relatively soft, think how easy it is to put your hand through a wall, or wood etc. I've ranted on for a bit, but people forget that kinda stuff. All boxers hit hard enough to do serious damage to the other guy, where as genuine power punches do more damage with a less clean punch, thats why cotto doesn't get KO's if he struggles to hit the chin/temple, but his last 2 opponents suffered broken jaws, orbitals injured shoulders etc. thats why he is known as a power puncher, and when they do land clean, even guys who are known to have great chins like mayorga get knocked the fuck out and can't get back up in time rather than take an 8 count.

Yes I agree with that, if it happened at 135/catch/whatever mayweather would outsize, out muscle him 100% because he has grown. The post I made wasn't relevent to Mayweather v Pacquiao.

Re: Floyd Mayweather Junior wants Manny Pac(that's what it says!)
I know it was about hitting as hard as a 140 pounder can hit but comparible ;) I dont think it would need to be ;) you agree?

And Shelly Finkel said the rumors are false.

Re: Floyd Mayweather Junior wants Manny Pac(that's what it says!)
I 'm a huge fan of both, But I would like to see Pac-man win. But I don't think Mayweather would be that bothered by Pac-man's power, He would be used to it already since he would be coming down in weight.

Re: Floyd Mayweather Junior wants Manny Pac(that's what it says!)
you all will be proven wrong...zab showed floyd is beatable...floyd was getting beat when zab was focus and kept punching...pac like zab is quick and can hit hard as hell with both left and right...but pac wont stop punching like zab did...
bullshyt pac get stop by floyd in under 4 rounds...pacs aggression we make floyd back up and not throw as much...if they fought inside and trade floyd will get drop...floyd won't be able to stay outside of range of pac...pac continues to hunt him down...go to the body in the later rounds floyd won't be as slick as he was.....
corrales had the power to knock out floyd but he didn't throw enough...
gatti was to slow
zab had the tools to beat floyd but not the stamina...
floyd is great when his oppenent don't punch back...floyd at 135 is much bigger then pac...but after going down in weight it won't do him any good...like what happen to roy in the first fight with tarver...in pacs case everybody said his not a legit 130 pounder but he still destroyed his oppenents...it'll be more harder then floyd droping then pac coming up...
-
Re: Floyd Mayweather Junior wants Manny Pac(that's what it says!)
Starr,I agree,PBF would win for sure but Manny Pac is impressive at 130,I'm sure he could do well at 135 but like I said,Floyd was awesome at 135 so he would certainly win,I would just be intrigued to see how Pac would take the fight,I don't think I have yet to see him against a slick boxer other than JMM who is a puncher Boxer.

Re: Floyd Mayweather Junior wants Manny Pac(that's what it says!)
There is probably some truth to earlier reports that Floyd Jr. wants to fight Pacman (as earlier reported by Edwin Rollon of Manila Standard courtesy of Eric Buhain). In an exclusive Boxingtalk.com chat session transcript of Floyd Mayweather's, it mentioned the following - unfortunately I cannot post the whole thing as it might be illegal and it does not cut and paste):
See below:
Someone asked Floyd probably about the truthfulness of the said article (the question was not shown but Floyd's answer pertains to fighting Pacquiao in the ring) and Floyd's answer was:
FLOYD_MAYWEATHER_JR: "I LEAVE THE NEGOTIATIONS IN THE HANDS OF MY TEAM. I LIKE MANNY PACQUIAO AND HE'S A GREAT LITTLE FIGHTER, BUT YOU KNOW HE'S WAY TOO SMALL FOR ME". "DAMN, I ALMOST SOUNDED LIKE WINKY WRIGHT RIGHT THERE".
Then someone asked: "Floyd, in your mind, if you are the best boxer, who is the second best"?
FLOYD_MAYWEATHER_JR: "MANNY PACQUIAO! WINKY'S A GOOD LITTLE FIGHTER TOO.
Here's the link if you can open it (sometimes by luck, it will lead you to the exclusive page, but most of the time, you have to be a member to access the page for those labelled for members only):
http://www.boxingtalk.com/pag/article8587.html
If you cannot open it, here's the link to the main page of boxingtalk:
http://www.boxingtalk.com
anyways, at this time i don't think manny should even be considering fighting at 135 cos his best fighting weight is at 126-130. but if it does happen the only way manny can even compete is if floyd has problems going down in weight.

Re: Floyd Mayweather Junior wants Manny Pac(that's what it says!)
What do you expect a Filipino media guy to say?!? He is simply trying to boost Pacman's cred by writing ridiculous fiction!! :o Or maybe boosting his own readership by writing sensationalistic nonsense!! ::**
-
Re: Floyd Mayweather Junior wants Manny Pac(that's what it says!)
Dude,read what KKisser wrote,it's not made up,it's just that it most likely will never happen.
-
Re: Floyd Mayweather Junior wants Manny Pac(that's what it says!)
If I were Pacman's people, I'll let him fight Floyd only if they were the same height. I think the height advantage of PBF is just too much for Pacman. On the realistic level, maybe I'll let Pacman fight Floyd if he can KO Morales, Barrios and Castillo. But even KO'ing Castillo will be a very, very big question mark in itself. So I think the talk of Pacman - Floyd fight is way too premature. But, well, I guess fights are not necessarilly made by reason but by money as well; so if there is money in the fight, I think anything can happen.
-
Re: Floyd Mayweather Junior wants Manny Pac(that's what it says!)
I think the better idea will be for Pacman to fight Raheem first coz I think he is a smaller and less powerful version of PBF (the way Raheem fought Morales reminded me of PBF). If Pacman can beat Raheem convincingly, preferably by early KO, I think it'll be a fair game for him to face PBF. So I think fighting Raheem is a must for Pacman before even considering to fight PBF.
-
Re: Floyd Mayweather Junior wants Manny Pac(that's what it says!)
zahir raheem will destroy pacman..PBF would almost kill him...he'd better focus on the third fight morrales, and rematch with barrera..if they give a shat about his career..meaning freddie roach and his handlers they'd stop those rumors immediately..because rumors can become a self-fulfilling-prophecy...and pac might start to wonder if he could pull it off himself.
-
Re: Floyd Mayweather Junior wants Manny Pac(that's what it says!)
this fight cant and wont happen...pbf would dominate the pacman this would be bad to watch

I seriously doubt 130 pound Pacquiao moving up who is an undersized 135 pounder could hit harder then 147 pound Zab Judah ;D
