It is all rather sexy.....I'm surprised things appear to be rolling so quickly.

Bring it on, you crazy mofo's! :cool:

Oh God, the fight we all want but three months of Hugging.....................

Epic, :domo-kun:

Hope Floyd really wants it as bad as everyone else and dont go blowing the deal with an excuse over money who walks out or something.

Re: PacDbest chances of Pac vs Mayweather now?
Props to Floyd, he's learning now how to finish a fight.

I pick Floyd to win the fight coz Hatton's arms is only 20" & only 5'6" short. Pac's 5'6 1/2" & 25" long from Armpit to fist. Pac is a Different animal than Hatton, He's faster, Punch straighter, Better head movement, quick footed. Watch Pac in any fight, he's not that hittable with the left hook. The opponent has to deal with Pac's Jab in order to be hit by a Left hook.
You haven't seen the welter Pac yet. You've only seen the 130 Pac with the Power of a middleweight.

Pac will be busy with JMM, Diaz & maybe DLH. PBF will take a Break, He'll not fight Cotto or any of the Bigger welter. hatton will Probably will be back at 140 fighting Witter or Torres. Pac might fight Hatton in England after DLH.
PBF will come out of retirement to fight Pac after all thoose Big fights.

Good on him,good call, I bumped it up for him too.

I suppose some people dont like it when others blow their own whistle loud in a crowd.

We all get sick of the "I told you so" threads, boxing isnt horse racing after all you are going to be correct 50% of time whether you study the form or not, and more so when you follow an unbeatable champion and bet on him every time.

But good call all the same.

Im saying my liitle bit, right now :D

Floyd Mayweather is a little susceptible to a fast southpaw right hand. He showed it in the Corley and Judah fights (to begin with, of course) and Pacquiao seems to have a right hook that could knock a horse off balance.

I'm gonna say anything too crazy but i feel Mayweather is gonna have big problems with Pacquiao's right hand.

8oz gloves -- OK - Favor to PAC
50-50 split -- OK - Favor to PBF
147 lbs limit -- OK - Favor to PBF
Ring size -- ? -

Was wondering what will be the ring size? 24x24 or 20x20? I hope they choice the 20x20 to make more exciting and to make it fair. :confused:

When Michael Buffer s making the announcement and PBF and Pac are squaring off on the canvas, i'll believe this is a fight that is on.

I still think Mayweather should be fighting Paul Williams or Shane Mosley, i don't care how much money is on offer for Pac Mayweather.......

Haha, I've not been Pacdbest2's biggest fan, but he deserves some props for his prediction run with Manny. He did get on the gravy train before everyone else after all. Might well give him some rep myself.

It will never be a 24x24, I think it'll be 20x20 to find a just point between the 16x16 and the 24x24

I gonna neg rep you because if I or everyone posted every time we got something correct, the board would be nothing but that. It's so stupidly arrogant it makes me want to go thru all your posting history and exploit every stupid thing you said and bump that (of which there is lots I assure you). You aren't a special flower or have an affinity for being correct. You are a pac loving and pac spewing blind to only that arrogant cunt. :)

Youngblood has the correct answer.

This. I particularly liked the "special flower" part.

Roll on March 13th!

Ha!

I almost forgot :D

This is a handicap fight favoring the bigger Floyd. He is fighting a busted up and distracted PAC. Hopefully PAC pulls this off.

Arum can't contain himself, It's starting to look like the PPV price is going to cost more than it cost to watch a typical fight live. It seems apparent that the fight will be in Vegas. $500 is the price for the cheap tickets. I'm guessing a $59.95 price tag for the PPV.

A 50-50 split with a $20 Million guarantee. Apparently Arum sweetened the pot for Pacquiao adding another $5 Million to the guarantee.

i cannot wait. Myweather wins this with ease for me.

No one put a gun to Pac's head and forced him to fight Floyd or forced him to fight in March. This will be the first fight in long while that Roach and Pac didn't handpick...the market demanded it. I have a strong feeling Floyd is going to put on a boxing clinic. By the way...Pac's new meteor tattoo looks cartoonish.

Yo! I heard that Maywether Jrs trainer for the fight is maywether Sr, is this true? Did they kiss n make up?

Hard to tell.

If they have they will have fallen out again by 13th of March.

Its clear that pac is ready. Now its time for Floyd to step it up and take the 50 50. pac is twice the draw as mayweather and twice the entertainment. I can see floyd now talking about himself in third peson and how he should get the bigger piece of the pie. Boxing needs this fight. Lets do this Floyd. Step up. Sign the contract. Lets Rumble.

To say Pac is twice the draw compared to Floyd is ridiculous. No question Manny's popularity has skyrocketed...but no way this fight will be huge as it is without Floyd. And Floyd is the master of selling a fight outside of the ring as well. Aside from Roach mouthing off here and there...the majority of the pre fight drama/hype will be generated by Floyd and company. And it looks like Floyd has stepped up...he was the first to negotiate with Arum. Floyd will be looking to make a statement with this fight. He sees that Pac has claimed the pfp #1 spot, he sees how much attention Pac is getting....and i think this will push to train for this fight like no fight before (which is scary considering how hard he normally trains).

Why the 8 oz gloves a factor?
