    Default Do we still wanna see a Mayweather vs. Pacqioau fight?

    Do we? Does a fight between them matter at this point?

    No we don't and no it doesn't
    The key is Self-discipline.

    A lot of the luster went away when Pac was planked.

    Unnecessary but I'd still like to see it. It would be interesting to see how their styles would mesh.

    I'm just speaking for myself and yes I would like to see Manny vs Floyd. Truthfully it depends on how he does against Rios.

    If Manny could string together a few "comeback" victories I wouldn't mind seeing it just based on the fact that Manny's handspeed and power is dangerous for Floyd.

    But in terms of it being a relevant superfight? No way. What would have been, to me, possibly the greatest showdown in the history of the sport was put in a coffin with the Bradley loss, and nailed up and buried after Pac got KTFO.

    2010, both guys were at their absolute peak in terms of popularity, reverence and ability.

    2013, Manny has been KTFO by a guy Floyd dominated, and Floyd, even though he hasn't lost yet, has visibly slowed down over the past few years.

    I certainly wouldn't complain

    I think most of us boxing fans are just a little wounded by their inability to strike a deal

    Although tbh, the fight would probably look a bit like Leonard/Duran III.

    I'm thinking the fight can happen at this point should both Floyd and Manny keep winning.
    Pacman would have to beat . . .
    1. Rios
    2. Paulie should he beat Broner or winner of M&M vs Lopez
    3. Winner of JMM vs Bradley

    And Floyd would have to beat
    1. Canelo
    2. Winner of Alexander vs Khan
    3. Winner of Garcia vs Mattysee

    Yes, lets see how Pac looks against Rios first. If he looks like his old self and overwhelms shit head then sure I'd still like to see him fight Mayweather. If he struggles or loses, then hell no.
