Do not order it you will spend time with only hookers and cocaine with no fight.
That's a win win situation then :)
I just read Manny has 100% signed and Floyd will be making an announcement soon.
I'd bet that was part of the "deal" Floyd being the one to make the announcement
i saw those
Doubt would get ticket for this one. A good night to have a fight party over here though.
I am planning on vegas in September so hopefully will time it right for a fight then - usually second saturday in september
Saw something about it probably being announced at some big NBA game this weekend ?? I could be wrong as have read that much about this event last few weeks......:confused:
Wonder who Khan will announce next
NBA allstars game at Maddison square garden on Sunday is when is Floyd is gonna announce it - I've read this on a few sites today.
Manny has stated he is in the Philipeans already in training for his next fight in May.
Khan v Cotto ?
I've read a few recent (last 24hrs) articles here and there and it appears Mayweather has started some light training after his holidays in the Caribbean or something. Same for PAC.
And that Floyd is the side that has to make the announcement (which sounds as if they were getting married or something).
It's funny how much Pacs side has blown this promotion so far with all their talk talk talk.
Imagine if nothing had been said about the fight and then Manny and Floyd met up at that game. And then nothing. Then a couple weeks later with no talk of it Floyd drops pictures of them meeting in the hotel room.
Everyone would have talked about this. What did they talk about, is it possible they will fight, is Floyd scared?!?! The whole world would have speculated. But instead everyone got their answers from boxing websites so what could have been interesting was more of the same. No reason to talk about it.
Floyd really gets how to make a story from nothing much better than I knew. And team Pac really blew it by talking about everything.
Hope these packages come with complimentary use of a time machine so the ticket holders can all be transported back to 2009 when the fight was worth a shit.
They do but only for the patrons willing to take a blood test.Quote:

Long awaited fight can't wait for this one both have aged an adjusted their boxing skillsvto suit their bodies
Paciou has been in wars in his hey day and has taken punishment to get the wins was knock out in his early days and took a bad knock out against Marquez
When watching paciou he don't take chances any more and is now looking to actually box rather brawl and box at the same time
Algeri was a made up fight for him and most guys in the top tier division would have beaten Algeri
On the other hand mayweather has yet to touch the canvas officially and has not really taken major punishment he's preserved him self and has adjusted his style with ease relying on skill timing ring generalship

Welcome aboard the good ship Saddo Myke. If it happens I think it could well be far more incident filled, even at this late stage in their careers than many are thinking. Psychologically Manny is a completely different kettle of fish than Floyd has faced for a long time. He is no brawling novice and he won't be half as easy to tag as the money team are assuming. Plenty of intrigue left in it for me.Quote:

Miadana,conelo cotto and the likes
slicker boxers Robert guerrerro,zab juda, marquez old brawlers gatti,and the list goes on
He's has answered more question about him then any fighter thus far
I would loved to have seen khan and paciou brawl it out being from the same camp but that another story
I know for a fact the real story will unfold Freddie roach is a crafty trainer his plans has to be concrete and not just a one trick pony he will have to have several coz mayweather has seen it all paciou is boxing more than brawling now as days and that's not good news for him it's that slow ebbing away and the skill how to controll
The fight that mayweather does so well and it's the selection of gears that he uses that peeps don't see
Paciou may have 1-2 gears mayweather has several
And he goes through them like we'll oiled cogs on a Lamborghini gear select
He can weather all storms that come his way and still nick points
So when the opponents shoots his last bullet and all you hear is click click click when the trigger pulling and your out of idea
That's when the gear change comes in he may not get the knock who cares its the win
Looked at the MGM Grand to see prices and its sold out for the 30, 1 & 2. Mandalay Bay's prices are over 400 per night. other nearby hotels are reasonable though.
I heard the hold up on Mayweather announcing the fight is that he is still reading the contract.
That will be a long time as Floyd can't read.Quote:

Its just another mental mind game about being the A side fighter and having control.
Its all bollocks at the end of the day as khan imo has the style to give floyd a run for his money and thats the fight I want to see take place as khan is a different fighter under the hunter.
Let's get the pac fight out the way and hopefully khan can keep his schedule clear for september.
Ramadan is in July this year . Floyd always fights The 2nd weekend in September, Khan wouldn't be ready till October/November. With Floyd's previous history, do we honestly think that he'll say "yeah of course I'll wait till Amir is ready!"Quote:

We need to be realistic. And while we're being realistic , Floyd beats Khan and makes him look Stupid, While Manny knocks Khan out!
The fight is done press conference tomorrow.
Still do not believe it.Quote:

I'm sure he did the same last year, think the fight was announced in the last week of February
If the fight doesn't happen, I'm done with both guys. Don't want to hear or see them fight again, don't care. Unless one of them does something crazy like move up to MW and fight GGG.
Kenny Bayliss still manages to be the most ridiculous looking man in that photo.Quote:
