I have lost interest in a Mayweather vs. Pacqiaou fight!

If they make it we'll all watch it.

And we'll all feel guilty about it.
(and dirty... and cheap)

We'll wish it had happened three years ago. However if Manny beats Marquez and they make this fight then we'll all be ecstatic. There'll be a huge buzz on this board. Alright, not everybody is going to be bothered and some people would moan that it should have happened before, blah blah blah but so what. Imagine if it was happening instead of the Manny Marquez fight. This place woulld be overloaded.

Long time ago. I've grown tired of both to be honest. Manny fought himself stale and is now the kinder gentler Pacman while Floyd reminds me of the retail salesman who makes a killing mid week and then decides to take Friday off.

The worst of it is unlike some bouts of 'greats' in other eras that never came...these guys didn't change divisions, suffer career ending injury or walk into a suprise ko loss. They and promotion just couldn't get over themselves long enough to give the fans what they wanted and realize the sport is indeed bigger than they are. Divas.

The fight will be made eventually because it still would make money. Ego of Arum and Floyd has got in the way and Pac Man has not got the balls to take ownership of his promotion and leave Arum because he would have earned more but was satisfied with the guaranteed payment from Arum.

When Pac Man destroyed Cotto and Margarito that was when the fight was going to be at its best. Floyd now wins it with relative ease. Everyone associated with these fighters should be ashamed for not making this fight for the good of boxing.

This fight may be, just like a very expensive bottle of wine you have had for years, you open it and
it's corked, it tastes like, shit what a disappointment, because you have just waited to long.

This is the best analogy I have read since starting this thread!

Well, sad to say it, but I don't think I will pay money to see a Mayweather vs. Pacman fight anymore. It's NOT a must see for me at this stage. The moment is gone.

That's not to say that if it becomes available that I may not try to find a way to see it, but I can give or take seeing it ever. Also, I am certainly not going to shell out bucks to see it either- if I get a chance to see it at this stage, it will be by me meeting up with friends at some bar or at a house, or something like that.

Anyone else got that feeling that the May/Pac fight is like, well, fuckitall!!

I could not agree with you more! I'm so tired of rumors, guess work, opinions and plain old bullshit that I don't really care one way or the other.
I really believe that Floyd's zero is more important than anything to him.
I've never understood what the sticking point is for Manny but I've gotten to the point where I don't even want to know. Will I watch the fight if it ever happens? Hell yes, I'm a fight fan!

I felt this way after Haye-Klitschko. I felt pretty stupid for buying into the premise of that fight for so long. I'm annoyed about the Mayweather-Pacquiao situation, but if they make it, we'll all be sat, cock in hand in front of the TV watching it. All accept for Mick that is, who'll still be pulling one off, just in the crowd.

I would watch, but wouldn't kill myself to go and pay to see it. I may even not be fussed if the replay shows up somewhere well after the fact. :-/

By the time this happens, they would be senior citizens- who wants to see that?
